ISTANBUL, Turkey, Aug. s.
Rumanian and German fire
fighting services are battling a
great fire which has been raging
in the entire petroleum area near
Ploesti hit Sunday by American
Liberator bombers, according to
the first eyewitness account
reaching neutral Turkey yester-
day.
(The Berlin radio, in a broad
cast recorded today in London
by the Associated Press, quoted
Rumanian communique today
as saying 116 persons were killed
and lat wounded in the raid. OF
the casualties, the broadcast said,
63 Of the dead and so of the
wounded were prisoners In the
town prison at Ploesti, on which
a bomber fell in flamesJ
The latest information was that
seven Liberators were forced down
in Turkey. while an eighth was
reported to have crashed in the
sea near enough to the Turkish
shore for the crew to make its
way to land in rubber boats. All
the crews were interned.
Three of the bombers came down
in the Izmir district of the West
Turkish Coast. There were no de-
tails concerning the others.
The three Liberators forced down
near Izmir were all damaged by
antiaircraft fire and fighter action
and one pilot-a captain-was killed.
A number of others among the
crews were wounded.
Members of the crews got in i'm
mediate touch with the United
States consulate at Izmir but re-
fused to talk about the raid beyond
saying they encountered consider
able antiaircraft fire and fighter
opposition during the low-level day.
light attacks.
Three crew members, badly
wounded, are confined to the Izmir
Hospital. The dead pilot, whose
identity was not divulged, was
buried here yesterday afternoon

The first report of the Ploesti fire
came in a telephone converse ton
with an eyewitness who was near

terrific destruction the raid had in

He said the fires were the biggest
he had ever seen anywhere.
The eyewitness said it still was

Full China Peace Role
Opposed by Churchill,
Chandler Letter Says
y The Associated Press.

Ey the Associated Press
LONDON, Oct. 26-The Daily
Telegraph said today that Sena-
tor Chandler, Democrat, of Ken
lucky, had expressed belief in
letter to it's New York CORE
Spondent that Prime Minister
Churchill is opposed to accepting
China as an equal partner in
peace negotiations after the war.
Senator Chandler, one of five
Senators who recently returned to
America after a tour of the war
fronts, was quoted as saying:
L am convinced, because of a
statement made to us by Mr..
Churchill, that he does not desire
that China sit at the peace table
as an equal partner with the United
States, Russia and Great Britain"
The Kentuckian also was quoted
as expressing regret that the Brit
ish have never seen fit so far to
mount an offensive in the India
Burma-China sector, which is so
badly needed in order to keep China
in the war"
I'VE have important bases there
at present very lightly held, and I
do not believe anything could hap
pen that would so seriously impair
our good relations as the loss Of our
bases in China Senator Chandler
was represented as saying.
IF they are lost 1t will largely
be because of the failure of the Brit
ish TO mount real offensive in that
sector
The Telegraph made no editorial
comment on the Senator's letter, but
said in its lead editorial on the
United States Senate discussion Of
the Connally postwar resolution:
"Repercussions must be expected
in the (Senate) debate of the recent
secret session in which five world
touring Senators acquired fame by
their charges that the British Com
monWealth was outWitting the
United States.
What will decide the issue is not
their attacks or reaction against
them, but the proved, unalteraole
fact that the interests Of the United
States require international collabo-
ration. The American people know
as we'll as the peoples of Europe the
dependence of their peace and well
fare on agreement with the British
Commonwealth and Russia for de-
fense against aggression"
