Robert was drafted just two
years ago, attended the Atwood
school in Macomb township and
has four brothers and five SIS
tiers at home besides his mother
and father.
Everyone of them is proud OF
his achievement but they aren't
surprised. They knew he had the
qualities of a good soldier.
Proud as they naturally are
they are even more concerned
about his having been wounded.
He is still stationed in the
Southwest Pacific theatre OF
war.

Finally, on Oct. 13, 1941, the U.

barred bondholders from COL

The latest move in the state

to owners of the illegal bonds,
had sought to pass legislation
which would make the great
sum collectable through creation
of special drainage district as

he said, occurred in the week of
February l4-20-the period OF
the American retreat and initial
attack on the Central

Stimson said, probably were

Raj



ped in the rising offensive In
March compared with 10000
tons dropped in the short month
of February, greatest month yet
for the Raj, when 1000 tons OF
bombs were dropped on three
different nights.
Promising even greater eXer-
tions by the Raj. Sinclair added
a statement which seemed an in
direct answer TO criticism Of the
United States Army Air Force S
day bombing policy.
The Americans are lion
hearted, skillful fighters, he
said. Their methods are a COM
plement to our own. They are
precious and welcome allies. The
more American bombers come to
take part in air offensive, the
better we shall be pleased and
the sooner the malignant power
of Germany will be broken
Sinclair, in introducing an Air
Ministry appropriation bill also
announced the creation of an
Raj transport command.
The new command is expected
to be a counterpart of the Unit
ed sta es transport command
whose activities in building a
round-the-World air system have
caused grave concern in Britain
over the British postwar posi-
ton in commercial air compe-
tition.
The question, into which Play
wright Clare Boothe Luce, Rep
resentative in Congress, recent
ly injected her personality with
explosive effect, has resulted in
roposal for international
agreement for sharing the air.
Sinclair, who made the an
nouncement in introducing an
Air Ministry appropriation bill,
also informed the country that
more than 10 per cent of Ger
man aircraft which in the last
three months attempted weak
reprisals for Raj bombings had
been shot down. Such loss rate
is generally considered almost
prohibitive for an attacking air
force.
DESTROY PLANES
Sinclair said as of 392 enemy
planes which crossed the British
coast in daylight during the last
three months were definitely de-
stroyed. Twenty six of 240
which crossed at night were
knocked down.
The Air Minister said this was
nearly three times the rate of
loss of British aircraft attacking
Adolf Hitler's Europe.

 Algiers, June 4-(UP)-The newly organized French Committee of Ma tional Liberation today was to con- slider the controversial question of whether Gen. Henri Honore Giraud will be permitted to continue in command of the French army.
 Giraud and Gen. Charles De- Gaulle were named co-chairmen yesterday of the "Comite Francaise de la Liberation Rationale" which will administer French territory outside enemy control until France itself is liberated.
 DeGaulle has contended that French tradition is against rank ing leader of the government hold ing a military command, but Giraud so far has refused to resign his pest at the head of the army.
 CA London Daily Telegraph dis patch from Algiers said that De- Gaulle has intimated that he has no intention of permitting Fighting French troops-such as those in the Middle East-to serve under the command of Giraud
 cDoubtless representations will be forthcoming from the highest quarters the Telegraph said, i'm | plying that intervention of Prime Minister Churchill or Foreign Sec retary Anthony Eden may be | sought.
 The question of Giraud's double | post was one of several contro- versial issues that was put aside for later consideration after they had twice forced postponement of the organization meeting of the new | committee
 Besides naming its co-chairmen | yesterday, the committee also:
 1. Pledged itself to continue tc l pursue the war efforts of the United States and Britain until victory has been won over Japan as well as Germany and Italy. (Japan now controls French Indo China)
 9. Appointed Gen. Georges Cat rouX, peacemaker between DeGaulle and Giraud and former Fighting French delegate-general to Syria, to replace Marcel Peyrouton, resigned as governor general of Algeria.
