Shadow of Destruction
(New York Times

CNew York Times
 The British Information Services supply some new figures on the work of the R.AF They show that the weight of bombs dropped on Germany and German controlled Europe from January to March 1922 was 50 percent higher than in the same period of 194l The rate of increase is acceleratng. Dur ing June and July l94l $500 tons dropped and for the period last summer l3,ooo tons. The load continues to rise Tn l94O the number of bombers on one target 100 planes in l94l, 300 planes in 1922 more than 1000 The heaviest bomb dropped in 1940 was 500 pounds in l94l 1000 pounds in 1922, more than 5000 pounds. In the year of the Battle of Britain the maximum load of RAF bombers was two tons; in 1941 more than six tons, in 1942, than eight tons Taking only British types as contrasted with German types of bombers and leaving out of account the American Flying Fortresses and Lberators which are doing so fine iob the German Dornier-2l7 carries 6,615 pounds and the British Sterling than 17,000 pounds the Heinkel IT. 440O pounds, and the Hali- fax l2O0O pounds; the Junkers-88, 5,720 pounds and the Lancaster about l2,OOO pounds.
 As a result of the increasing bombing power of the RAE, the figures comparative damage are Illuminating The worst damage done in Britain by the German air force is 120 laid waste in Lon- don. Against this, the R.AF has laid waste thus far 500 acres in Cologne 38O in Dusseldorf, 360 in Karlsruhe 300 in Lubeck 260 in Munster l80 in Rostock and 1855 in Mainz At Emden an R.AF raid and at Bremen one-fifth of the whole town was devastated.
 Doubtless additional methods of attack and oc- cupation must be employed for the full reconquest of Europe but this ground swell of bombing, which has only begun it's inexorable movement toward the flood, hardly can fail to make more swift and sure the day of victory.

By this time, Secretary Ickes found out that his Undersecretary had overruled him. According to National Park officials, Dempsey may have figured that the church could not be built because of pri- critics. For in July, 1942, he wrote the Bishop that no priorities were available and the Government could not help in getting them. Later Dempsey resigned from the Interior Department, and this dis pute was reputed to be one reason for his exit Shortly thereafter, Ickes wrote a letter to the bishop that the construction of any church on government property was not in line with park policy.
