PRISONERS ASK
 ARMY UNIFORMS

Boston, April 3-(UP)-Prisoners in Massachusetts penal institutions have appealed to state authorities for permission to join the armed services or serve as farm and war workers.
 State Correction Commissioner Arthur T. Lyman disclosed last night that he had received a I5- page document from a nine-man prisoner committee asking release of worthy prisoners. The report re- minded him that 300 prisoners had been released during World War I and that "every man made good"
 Lyman and Reubcn L. Lurie. state parole board chairman. said the re- port was "factually correct" and added that they "hoped something might be done." There are 4,500 men inmates in state penal insti- tutions.
 The report advocated individual reviews by state authorities for those desiring war service.
 It said 'misfits. rabble rousers and potential fifth columnists should not be granted early release under any circumstances.
 The committee cited contribution of 2,250 pints of blood by prison- CTS to the Red Cross and purchase of $2O,OO0 in war bonds by one state prison colony as examples of their efforts to help in the war effort.

TWO GERMAN SUB IBASESATTACKED

 Atlantic Coast o, k,
Ry WILLIAM D, DICKINSON

London, April 3,-tUP)-British foUr.engined boMberS struck in force last night at Lorient and St NaZaire, Germany's two largest Suh- marine bases on the French Atlan- tic coast,
 The double blow ended q four night, weather-enforced lull in the Anglo aerial offensive fol- lowing the heavy attacks Monday night on Berlin and BochuM, the latter Q steel and railway center ia Germany's Ruhr.
 Only two planes were lost In last nights raids and in subsidiary mine- laying operations, considered an unusually small loss for attacks on such heavily defended targets,
 Every type of bomb from two-ton block busters to two-pound incen. diaries was unloaded on the sub marine pens, repair shops and other U-boat facilities Of St. Nazaire and Lorient, both of which already have been so badly battered by Anglo American planes that the Germans are believed to be on the point of moving the bases farther south in France.
 The raid on Lorient was the 69th Of the war and that on St. Nazaire, the 47th. Lorient last was attacked in daylight by the 9th U. s. Air Force March 6.
 Other Allied planes took over the resumed aerial offensive in daylight today. Bombers and fighters swept over the southeast coast in relays and bomb explosions were heard from the direction of the northeast coast of France or southern corner of Belgium.
 The night raids against the sub marine bases were timed to coincide with the intensiflcation of Ger many's U-boat warfare against AL lied sea lanes in an attempt to throw the impending invasion of Europe off schedule.
 Meantime. reports continued to reach London of the terrific havoc wrought by the British and Ameri- can bombers in their continuing offensive against Germany and oc- cupied territory.
 The Berlin radio said that POO. 900 persons had been killed. wounded or rendered homeless by Allied raids on France. while an Ankara broad cast asserted that SlOvakia has agreed to house s 600 German chil- dren evacuated from bombed areas.
