1880 tons, topping by some 1000
tons the May record of 12,500 tons.
A great proportion Of this June de-
struction was spread on the Ruhr
In nine major attacks, including the
assault on Dusseldorf on June II
by the wars greatest heavy bomber
force.
The United States 9th Air Force,
while carrying out only seven bomb
ing missions embracing a dozen tar
gets, as compared with nine raids
and 10 targets in May, was reliably
understood to have greatly increased
its bomb tonnage per raid by turn
ing out in double the strength of
only a few weeks before. More than
200 planes. for instance, were sent
on the Wilhelmshaven-C Cuxhaven
raid June II.
Ruhr Penetration Is High Light.
A high light OF the month for the
Britain based American flyers was
their first penetration of the Ruhr.
Their raid on the large synthetic
rubber factory at Huls on June %
was rated as probably one of the
best bombing jobs of the war.
In addition. June brought an off,
cial statement that the numbers of
heavy bombers in the 9th Air Force
had been doubled since March and
would be redoubled by October.
The Americans lost 81 bombers in
June, against 81 in May, but because
of the expanded operations the in
crease was not considered excessive.
In their l3 nights of operation the
RAF flyers lost 269 planes, the
highest monthly total of the war.
From Middle East bases, Amer
ican heavy and medium bombers
carried more than 2,155 tons of ex-
plosives across the Mediterranean
to Axis objectives in 2,314 sorties
during the month with the negu-
gible loss of three big planes.
Middle East assaults against the
Italian mainland and island pos
sessions were carried out in close
coordination with the forays by the
Northwest African Air Forces. The
combined Middle East Air Command
completed 2l3 missions throughout
the month.

These accomplishments stood out:
/. The unconditional surrender of

Also significant were the two

While I do not expect to lose my throne as a

for would go right to America and get job. know

Boris was probably a better mechanic than
ruler In the period from 1919 TO 1923 he came close
losing all power in his country to the dictator
ship of the peasant leader, Alexander Stambuisky.
And in May of 1884 when Kimor Georgieff set up a

Boris mysterious death leads some observers to
believe that he was assassinated, And thai is not
unlikely Several times he has narrowly escaped
death in this manner. Once in 1921 bomb exploded
