Nebr) Daily News radio station

To Be Further Curtai|ed
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
In an order designed to save 100
tons OF tin during 1943 the War
Production Board further curtailed
today the use of tin in toothpaste
and shaving cream tubes.
Effective Immediately, the order
prohibits the use of tin in the manu-
facture of shaving cream tubes, but
allows manufacturers to use up
tubes containing up to Is per cent
tin which they had in their inven-
tory today.
Beginning April /, the tin content
in toothpaste tubes is to be reduced
from 5 per cent to 3 per cent of the
weight of the tube.
During 1943 manufacturer may
not pack more than IS per cent of
the amount Of toothpaste he packed
In 1912 in tubes containing tin.
Previously the pack had been re-
stricted to 100 per cent of the
amount packed in 1910.
The order prohibits the manufac-
ture and use Of all-tin tubes used
by druggists to fill prescriptions.
Druggists, however, are permitted
to use tubes they have on hand.
As . result of the order, WPB said,
tubes in the future will be made
largely Of lead.
The individual purchaser OF q tube
OF toothpaste or shaving cream must
continue to turn in q used tube .or
each new tube purchased.

the symbol of the United States and
France united in a war on Germany
The first squadron of the new
Lafayette Escadrille, composed of
picked French aces who shot down
an average OF seven to eight planes
each in the brief battle Of France.
flew into this base at dusk yesterday,
ready to take up the fight where they
left on two and one-half years ago.
This squadron, which also calls
itself the Lafayette-S -Storks, got a
warm greeting from the ordinarily
undemonstrative American pilots and
ground crews.
Americans Cheer Heartily.
These men, who seldom waste a
glance at the sky unless they think
enemy raiders are coming, dropped
their work to wave heartily as the
group which had fought for France
IN two wars circled the field and
came in.
The temper OF these Frenchmen
was shown in virtually the first
words they uttered.
Escadrille Leader Maj. Kostia
Rozanoff, 37-year-old Partisan
whose grandfather was Russian,
leaped from the cockpit Of his P-4O
fighter, saluted, shook hands with
Maj. Robert H. Christian OF Port
Washington. N. Y, commander of
An American squadron, and asked !:
The Focke Wulf-190, you have
fought with him?"
Maj. Christian replied with ex-
pressive gestures and the few
French words at his command
three fingers for the number of his
combats with the fast climbing Nazi
war plane and a single finger for
the one he shot down.
Equipped BY Americans.
From the sleek P-40s they were
flying. down to mess kits and hand
kerchiefs, the French aces were
equipped by the Americans. They
spent some time training in the
United States with their new planes.
All had flown, in 1910 or before, the
Curtiss P-36, the rand-daddy of
their present equipment.
Maj. Rozanoff wears the ribbon
of the Croix de Guerre-green and
black instead of the familiar green
and red in token Of Frances mourn
ing Of its 1910 downfall-with leaf
and star awarded for his feat of
twice shooting down two German
planes on a single sortie.

Mai. Rozanoff told American
pilots he was fortunate enough to
be assigned to staff duty in Morocco
when the United States troops
landed and therefore was not ordered
to fight against the Americans.

the Navy said.
Two destroyers were ordered te
sink the Hornet with torpedoes and
shells, with the sinking finally
effected about dusk on october rs
10 hours after japanese planes had
mortally damaged the vessel.
Text Of Nays Report.
The text OF the Navy's account
of the Hornets career follows:
THE US.S. Hornet, identified by
the Navy Department as the air
craft carrier lost October rs in the
battle of the Santa Cruz Islands,
wrote her valedictory in blazing
gunfire. On the day she perished

Hornet was a part, shot down 156
Japanese warplanes.

alongside the destruction she logged
in the five months preceding her
sinking.
Even more devastating to the
enemy were the blows the Hornet
struck at warships and auxiliaries.
Her squadrons-Scouting Eight,
Bombing Eight, Torpedo eight and
Fighting Eight-at Midway and
Santa Cruz produced the following
minimum results:
"At least one torpedo hit on a
carrier.
Jap Warship Blasted.

a capacity of approximately 5000

That is the damage list for Mid
way and Santa Cruz. At Santa
Cruz, Grumman Avenger torpedo
planes and Douglas Dauntless dive
bombers from another United States
carrier helped avenge the Hornet,

bombs on a carrier of the Shokakl

into the debris to release persons
buried in the ruins of their homes.
France also was struck by a pro-
cession of daylight raiders which
