Flying Fortresses bombed Dueren,
site of a large airplane parts fac
tory, and other targets in Western
Germany Sunday while British
bomberS hammered three German
airfields in Northern France, all
at the cost of only one American
fighter plane.
The German fighter force, which
has been taking a terrific beating
in the skies over Western Europe,
offered virtually no opposition to
the raiding fleets which roared
back and forth across the English
Channel all day.
All Fortresses returned safely
from the raids on Germany-third
by the Americans in five days. It
was the first time in II missions
spread back over more than a
month that no bombers were lost.
The Fortresses were escorted by
long range PAT Thunderbolts
while twin-tailed American Light
ming fighters swept Northern
France in supporting operations.
An American communique, an
nounced the loss of one fighter,
but did not specify where it was
brought down.

Roosevelt would be the party's

Small Farmers To Be Without

Mr.. J. B. Slack, Regional Di-
rector for the Farm Security Ad-

Congress quickly grants President
Roosevelt's request for supple

Mr.. Stacks statement follows:

Portal Poy RULING

The announcement that the War
Labor Board has rejected the COM
promise of the portal to- portal pay
issue which had been worked out
by John l.. Lewis and the Illinois
Coal Operators Association probably
means that this thorny problem
eventually will go to the courts for
settlement, where it should have
gone in the first instance.
Until WLB Chairman Davis COM
pleteS the writing of his formal
opinion, the precise reasons for the
boards decision remain unknown.
But it has been announced that the
public and industry members of the
board, with the labor members dis
senting, concluded that the compro-
mise arrangement did not constitute
a genuine settlement" of claims on
behalf of the miners arising under
the Fair Labor Standards Act. In
other words, the board felt that this
was hidden pay raise, not bona
fide compromise of legal claim.
No doubt Mr.. Davis will set forth
supporting reasons for this conclu-
sion In his opinion. Meanwhile, 1t
might be mentioned that the COM
promise was made contingent upon
the willingness of OPA to increase
the price Of coal to cover the added
ccsts. In effect. the Illinois opera

Mutt became secretary general of

Duce's "triggerman" may not have
been accurate, but there is no ques-

tyrant. His word was law in the
territory in which he operated.
Now he is dead, allegedly shot by

Believes Secret Weapon"
May Be Rocket Gun.

To the Editor oi Ihe Star:
German Propaganda Minister Goeb-
bells recently said that a new defensive
weapon was being produced in Germany
for use against Allied aircraft. 1t would
be brought into action at the opportune
moment
Now British and AL erican bomber
crews returning from re .ent bombing
missions over Germany report attacks
from new rocket-shooting, -engined
Nazi fighter planes. The flyers say the
planes come in close and fire string of
rs to 80 black missiles the size of an
indoor baseball which burst with vio-
lent flash.
Experts claim that a rocket gun has
the twofold advantage of accommodating
larger projectiles and lack of recoil
This we'll may be the new secret
weapon" the Germans have been talking
of. Rocket guns were first introduced
by the Russians as an effective ground
weapon. Reports from the Mediterra-
mean say the Germans also have used
rockets in Sicily.

CLIFTON STREET.

Dear Sir:
TT is quite a pleasant pastime to study
the habits of the butterflies at this time
of the year, and lovers of nature are
urged to delight themselves in this man
ner.
Several days ago the writer became
interested in watching = large, shim-
mering, purplish- black butterfly, perhaps
properly named, Basilarchia astyanax,
crossing Fourteenth and Irving streets.
The traf1c was very heavy and the
butterfly was flying altogether too low
for his safety AS he made his way timidly
the changing street cars, buses, trucks,
automobiles and pedestrians, it seemed
as If the life of the butterfly might be
taken any minute, and profound sigh
of relief escaped me when at last the
beautiful, iridescent butterfly finally
balanced himself on an awning of q store
located on the opposite side of the
street. For a moment the butterfly
rested, and then it disappeared behind
the caves OF the building
Last Sunday afternoon was walk
ing down Thirteenth street when sud-
denly pair oi large yellow butterflies
dancing in the street attracted my at
tention.
The wings Of these butterflies were
edged in black and bore large dark spots.
TT occurred to me that these might be
the tiger swalow-tail butterflies, properly
known as Papilio turunus.
These butterflies were truly lovely
bits of flying sunshine, and they were
putting on most graceful butterfly
dance right in the middle of the street,
not more than S feet from the ground.
Two automobiles were rapidly ap-
preaching and it was inevitable that
the butterflies would be killed if they
did not rise few feet higher or fly
across the street.
"One of the butterfly dancers sensed
his immediate danger and few to safety,
but his mate swooned to the ground and
lay there as If lifeless
Instantly the other car passed over
the prone body of the butterfly, but he
into the street and picked up the but
terf1y.
ITO my amazement, it managed to give
a f1tful, tremulous simmer which was
encouraging, and sprinkled him with
water, thinking perhaps this might re-
vive him Bit
I'm the meantime, the butterfly was
placed on a coleus leaf, the colors of
which matched his own, and he seemed
to feel quite at home.
THE butterfly rested for little while,
but presently few to the top of the
porch where he lighted on a morning
glory vine.
1T was the writer's wish that the but
terfly remain on the coleus leaf for fur
ther observation, as he sustained severe
shock, which later may prove fatal.
Sincerely, L. w. W."

Freedom We Cherish
From the Topeka Capital.

From the Topeka Capital.
The Atlantic Charter does not proclaim
nor does our Bill of Rights guarantee this
freedom, yet we have retained it intact
because, in our most pessimistic moments,
we have faith that nobody bred in
democracy will choose anything else. 1t
is freedom to listen to the other fellows
arguments.
1t must shock authoritarisns to read
that in the midst of the Sicilian cam
paign our soldiers and sailors listened
freely to German and italian propaganda
programs. Can you imagine any Ger
man, Japanese or Italian newspaper
carrying, as a regular feature, a list of
enemy shortwave stations with their
megacycle position and the hours when
they broadcast news" doctored for

Retired

The other day the Mount Pulaski
0ll.) fire truck was sold for private
use. 1t was an aged vehicle, being
foaled long ago in Detroit or there
abouts in the days of cranks, not
self-starters, but it had two priceless
assets often lacking in cars of today
gasoline in the tank and tires on
the rims.
At first there was some talk of the
SPCA (Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Automobiles attempting
to void the sale. Surely so historic
vehicle deserved retirement in some
pleasant garage, there to dream in
peace of its past valiant service to
the community, of the thousands
upon thousands of dizzy roaring
miles it travelled, saving lives and
property, quivering in every fiber and
2asket of its frame and painting for
more. Would not such noble steed
worn from years of toll, pine away
under the indignity of civilian haul
ing under a heavy load and pushed
to the T-card limit? One turn of the
crank decided the question; with a
snort of sheer surprise, the engine
woke up from an eighteen-year sleep,
trembling with eagerness to go places
and learn what the big new world
was like. Mount Pulaski, it seems,
shares not the dubious fame of Ham,
burg or Berlin. Since 1925 there has
not been a fire there big enough to
call for use of the unhistoric old
mechanical employe.

Mutt;

When the history of the Fascist
movement in Italy finally is written,
the role played in it by Ettore Mutt
will be shown to have been consid-
cradle. Mussolini, of course, was its
"only" leader, and everything that
could be done to glorify him was
done as policy. His name and his
figure were the symbols of the ram
pant nationalism of the Italian race
during more than twenty years.
1t was Mutt and other secondary
individuals like him, however, who
made Fascismo force to be reckoned
with in those two decades The
career of the late air ace and party
secretary is worthy OF brief review If
only because to some comparative
degree it was model for his compa-
triot contemporaries.
Born May %, 1902, Mutt was only
fifteen when he volunteered for the
Arditi Battalion. His record in the
First World War was admirable. But
when he joined Gabrielle d'Annunzio
in the taking of Fiume in defiance of
France and Great Britain in 1918. he
launched out upon an adventure
which naturally led to further pro-
vocative procedures.
The Fascist doctrine was his op-
portunity. He used it to gain politi-
cal strength In his native Ravenna
between 1919 and 1921, shared in the
march on Rome In 1922, became COM
mander of various Black Shirt le-
gions, gradually achieved an authen-
tic popularity as a flyer as we'll as an
adviser to II Duce. When the Ethio-
plan campaign opened, he entered
the La Disperata Squadron. Later
he was captain Of the bombers which
Mussolini placed at the disposal Of
