We can take this mysterious fu-

The air lanes over the channel
were busy all night and day as
raiders shuttled back and forth.
Besides the ATTACK on London and
the Thames estuary, German sneak
raiders dipped low over a southwest
coast town, dropping bombs which
caused damage and casualties.
The American heavyweights of
the air hit again at Rouen, French
railroad center which they had Wis
tied four days earlier, taking up
the day bombing shift after the
British had pounded Stuttgart in
strong force.
TOWARD CLIMAX
The fighting in Russia moved to-

German reports said Vyazma was
blown up before it was evacuated.
An unusually detailed account b.
the official DNB news agency listed
the amounts of supplies and equip

FIR Puts Postwar
Question TO Solons

President Roosevelt said today
the question of planning now for
Postwar Public Works to provide
jobs as a cushion against unemploy-
ment is squarely up to Congress.
Discussing recent recommended
ton of the National Resources
Planning Board for vast pool OF
public works to take up the slack
after the war. Mr.. Roosevelt said
it is plainly up to Congress whether
the county will be prepared for this
let-down or whether it will not be
read to take up the slack.
He said he agreed with members
OF the Planning Board on the
necessity of continuing postwar
planning, but that the responsibility
for the method and the continuance
of the program rested entirely with
Congress.

Sixteen points per consumer per

new rationed foods and the con-
sumer can decide upon which OF
the rationed items he prefers to
spend most of his points. Point
values will be announced during the

It is not possible to say exactly
how much of each of the foods a
consumer will gej each week, but
Wickard said that these average
weekly rations will be approximate
