For half the trip to the target the
big bombers had the advantage of
P-47 fighter cover. When the Nazi
planes rose to the attack they bored
in, attempting to penetrate the
screen. If they failed, the pilots
said, they launched the small
rocket propelled planes bearing
bombs.
Maj. Roy Evans of San Ber-

THE Huns acted differently to-

I'm the past they had been content
to come in and then leave, but to-
day they came in and then kept
coming on in. They were plenty

RAF Bostons escorted by Allied

the large-scale aerial attack on Ger

London had an alert for the

Meeting Set by Byrnes

War Mobilization Director Byrnes
expects to bring representatives of
interested agencies together next
Week-perhaps Monday-for dis
cussion of the problems that will
arise when demobilization starts and
soldiers return to private life.
President Roosevelt recently asked
Mr.. Byrnes to undertake this study.
1t was said at Mr.. Byrnes office that
the meeting. and others to follow,
for a while will be of an "explora-
tory" nature. since much spade work
must be done before an adequate
program for dealing with the matter
can be devised.
The administration has given

Schenck Was Marked
To Be His Fall Guy,'
Biof Testifies
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-William
CWillle) Bioff, former West Coast
labor leader convicted of extorting
more than s200O,0o0 from the film
industry, testified yesterday he
planned to make Joseph Schenck,
then board chairman Of goth Gen.
tury-Fox, the fall guy in Bioff S
trial in l941.
Bioff, on the stand in Federal
Court for the third day in the trial
against eight former associates
charged with eXtorting more than
Sl000,000 from the theater and
movie industries, told of a conyersa-
ton with Paul Ricca de Lucia one
OF the defendants, in the Seneca
Hotel in Chicago.
Il told De Lucia I had a good
defense" Bioff testified. Joe
Schenck was to be the victim. We
had sufficient of blue print on
Schenck after his conviction to use
against him. There were many
transaction Of money that could not
be accounted for by Schenck, and
was to say the money was turned
over TO Joe Schenck." Schenck was
convicted of income tax evasion in
194l.
Biof did not eXlain why the plan
was abandoned. He said he disclosed
the plan when De Lucia and other
members of a Chicago mob which
dominated the International AFL
Alliance of Theatrical Stage En-
ployes demanded that he flee to
Mexico to avoid giving testimony at
the trial.
He said he replied to De Lucia s
suggestion to hide out that "it would
be time to think of that when was
out on bail on an appeal If I was
convicted" He was not released in
bail after he was convicted with
George E. Browne, IATSE president.
They now are serving 10-year prison
sentences
Bioff also testified that he and
Schenck entered into a dummy
loan arrangement in 1887 so that
Biof could avoid payment of in
come taxes on 100000, the amount
OF the fake loan. On the records. he
said, it would appear as a loan. but
actually it wasn't a loan at all"
The trial was adjourned until next
Thursday.
