AN RAF BASE, SOMEWHERE IN
ENGLAND, June 30.-The swift
Typhoon plane has moved into the
ranks of fighter -bombers and al
ready has proved effective in support
Of American heavy bombers, it was
disclosed yesterday as newspaper
men were given their first look at
Britain's newest air invasion weapon.
Raj pilots are confident that the
latest version of one of the worlds
fastest planes-which as a fighter
has been largely responsible for
trouncing German sneak raiders
will be at the forefront in close
support Of Allied landing armies in
Europe.
They are convinced, too, that 1t
will make the Job OF American Fly
ing Fortresses and Liberators easier
by blasting Nazi fighters on the
ground to balk interceptions of the
American heavyweights.
At a sacrifice Of only 10 to Is
miles from top speed, which Is in
the neighborhood Of 400 mp.h, the
Typhoon carries a 500-pound bomb
under each wing. and pilots are per-
fecting a bombing technique which
has knocked out a large number of
German fighters on airfields.
When its bombs are gone, the
Typhoon reverts to its original role
as . deadly fighter plane with a
full supply of ammunition for the
four 20-millimeter cannon in its
wings.
Working in closest liaison with
the USAAF, the Typhoon squadrons
are loaded with bombs and ready
to go when the big Fortresses and
Liberators penetrate France. Then,
when the radio brings word of en-
emy fighter moves, the Typhoons
streak across the Channel in a mat

Samuel Shanker, proprietor of the
Country Garden Markets, who yes
terday denied that he sold meat
without collecting sufficient ration
points, today was to continue his
testimony before Ellsworth Clark,
OPA special hearing commissioner,

The OPA's charges against the

Several members Of his squadron
were particularly happy over this
type of attack because they have
pleasant memories Of training days

Now rolling out by the hundreds,
Typhoon fighter -bombers are ex-

that the meat could have lasted an
other week or two.
Irwin NJ Hufford of the Alexan-

no time had Mr. Shanker been
given persmission by the board to
lower points in order to dispose of

AGGRESSION OR
PROGRESSION?
BY RUTH TAYLOR

There are some soap box phil
osophers who say that the only
way to get to the top Is to be
aggressive" They are all for
standing up for your rights, :"
mot letting any one put anything
over on you" Making your
voice heard" They pooh pooh
turning the other cheek" and
denounce as servile and pacifistic
any one who disagrees with them.
The trouble is too many people
use words without knowing what
they mean. Aggression Is IAN
unproyoked attack" Is that the
kind of action that would appeal
to you? OF course mott And ag-
gressive action is not the kind
that is needed to get where you
want to go. Aggression does not
get ahead. 1t scatters shot all
over the surrounding horizon
without any particular aim.
The word we want is not ag-
gression it is progression,
which means advancement" We
want to progress - to go ahead
steadily, securely toward a final
goal of intelligent freedom, of
equal rightsand equal response
bilities, ready to fulfill the re-
sponsibilities that we may enjoy
the rights. We want permaneney
of place, not temporary priyile-
ges.
We want to be friendly with
those around us. We do not
want advantages enforced at the
cost of enmity. We know how the
aggressive person annoys us. In
stinctiyely we can sense COM
bative attitude and it puts us in
a fighting mood. Well - it does
the same thing to the other fell
low, too. 1t is this attitude into
which the professional agitator
would lead hse whm he wishes
aruse. 1t is his stock in trade
because it creates hatred on both
sides and thus is weapon
against unity.
Aggression is push through
force. Progression is advance
ment through merit. One is
skyrocket, the other a tower. Our
present war illustrates this per-
fectly. The Axis powers have

used the tactics of aggression -
conquering wholesale, but leav-
ing behind them hatred and re-
sentiments which will prove their
ultimate downfall. The Allies are
those nations which have pro-
crossed = too slowly in many
cases - but with a definite goal
of ultimate freedom for all,
through which they will achieve
the final victory, victory based
not on force alone but on under
standing that the problems of
one are the problems of all.
Aggression or progression -
