When the Akron flew into the
ocean of the New Jersey coast in
1888 and her sister ship, Macon,
crashed in the Pacific two years
later, he studied all the evidence
and insisted that such losses were
the price of pioneering. The burn
ing Of the Hindenburg IN 1887 was
the final straw In weighing public
opinion against airships, but 1t only
convinced Capt. Rosendahl that the
United States should make an asset
OF airships. The Hindenburg had
keen kept aloft with hydrogen, for
Germany had no helium. The
United States has practically a mo-
nopoly on the -inflammable
heliun1 gas.
Before he went on sea duty, Capt.
Rosendahl was in Washington In
1941-working on the program OF
building blimps that can hang al
most motionless in the air above
submarine-infested waters.

"Shively," he heard, in Monroe's

Then Swede was out Of the clouds.
So Divine's plane was ell right. He
looked down. The cruiser was
crawling like an animal with q
broken back. There was q destroyer
with flames coming out Of its star
board side and fantail, and far OF
was a torpedo plane, hugging the
water low with tracer shells racing
after him and dropping short Of
him. That was Evarts, getting away
safely. The water was pocked with
the corpses Of burning planes. From
each plane rose column Of black
smoke, going up straight into the air
like some gaseous breath. There
were Is dead planes there, one Of
them o,irs.
Then, just as Swede was reach-
ing the horizon, he heard two ex-
ploSions. tremendous enough, to
reach over AL that water and carry
above the Noise Of his own plane
and into his sealed cabin. He looked
back startled. The explosions, one
on top Of the other, had come from
the cruiser. The cruiser was en-
shronded h smoke.

Fowler Harper Takes
Administrative Post
With BEW Here
VINO Deputy Choirmon'.
Resignation Is Confirmed
In McNutt Statement

Fowler Harper, deputy chairman
Of the War Manpower Commission,
yesterday ended his close association
with VINO Chief McNutt to take an
administrative post in the Board Of
Economic Warfare.
Mr.. McNutt confirmed the resiz-
nation after Mr.. Harper's friends
had reported that he had resigned
as a protest against asserted domi-
nance OF the VINO by management
interests"
Mr.. Harper said he would take q
post with the BEW's Once of I'm
ports, In charge Of procurement and
economic development In Allied
occupied countries. starting with
North Africa.
In q brief statement announcing
the resignation Of the man who
guided his 1910 campaign for the
presidency before he withdrew his
nomination, Mr.. McNutt said Mr..
Harper had been his personal as
sistant and representative in the
SAS0SAOA4 VI tllC lMd1ld&CxucUL.1A
Policy Committee and the general
program Of collaboration of man
agement and labor.
"These policies" Mr.. McNutt
added, constitute the basic founda-
ton Of War Manpower Commission
administration and Mr.. Harper de-
serves high praise for the part he
played In their establishment"
Recently, organized labor pro-
tested that the balance Of power
In the National Policy Committee
had shifted to management inter-
ests since two Of the three agricul-
ture members on the five-man
committee represented farm man
agement. Mr.. Harper, who has
been Mr.. McNutt's labor relations
man, commented at the time that
labor appeared to have some JUS
tification for its protest. Mr.. Nc
Mutt has taken no action as q re-
suit of this protest.

The Story Of Torpedo 8

the torpedo planes. An air fight, Roy
Simpler once said after coming out
Of one Of them, is like q dozen bees
IN a glass jar. Swede and Evarts
and Divine went steadily through all
the bees, and Divine had the bad
luck. Two zeros jumped him.
Divine had r. L. Shively as his
tunnel gunner and G. E. Monroe as
his turret gunner. Monroe got one
OF the Zeros and saw it hit the water
and was looking around for the other
Zero when Shively screamed through
the radio. "Oh. the dirty" and
the plane dived into the cloud. "I'm
hit" said Shively.
They all kept going. That was the
theory they had-whatever hap
pened, to keep going until stopped.
But they were not in formation any
more. The dogflght had split them
up 50 that each man was on his own,
Cruiser Is Crafty.
This Jap cruiser was craftier than
the other had been. As soon as tho

Chinese Report Rout
Of Jap Force Headed
Toward Changsha
Setback IN Other Sector
Of Tungtine Lake Area
Admitted by Chunekine
BY the Associated Press.

BY the ASsociated Press.
CHUNGK1NG. May 8.-Strone
Japanese forces which landed on the
southern shores Of Tungting Lake
three days ago In q thrust toward
Changsha, capital Of Human Pro-
vince, have been driven OF by a
fierce Chinese counterattack, 1t was
announced officially tonight.
The Chinese high command said
the Japanese who established q
beachhead at Yulangchow Wednes-
day "took to their ships and fed
after suffering heavily at the hands
Of the Chinese defenders who en-
gagged them in fierce fighting"
The withdrawal, the communique
said, was completed yesterday, the
survivors returning by boat to Yo-
chow, an enemy base on the north
ern fringe Of the lake Just south
Of the Yangtze River.
Chinese Evacuate Town.
An attempt by the Japanese to
circle the western shores Of the lake,
however, met with more success.
The communique admitted the Chi
nese troops fell back and evacuated
the town Of Ansiang after street
fighting In which they inflicted
more than 600 casualties.
Several hundred Japanese, who
had penetrated the Chinese lines
near that town, were surrounded
and wiped out"
Japanese planes, striking at
Changsha, about SO airline miles to
the south, dropped tons of incen-
diaries on the city and its suburbs
today killing or wounding about 20
Chinese.
All present indications pointed
to the probability that the Japa-
nese drives were intended primarily
to strike an economic rather than
military blow by running the rip
ening rice crop in one Of China's s
heaviest producing areas.
Attractive Objective.
Changsha itself, associated with
three previous Japanese defeats in
that area, offers an attractive mill
tary objective, however, as a STEP
ping stone to the Hengyang juno
ton Of the Canton-Hankow and
Hunan-Kwangsi railways.
Far to the north, Japanese attack
ing Chinese strongholds in the Tai
heng Mountains from bases in North
Honan Province suffered heavy
losses through Chinese surprise At
tacks and have summoned REIN
forcements, the high command an
nounced. In that sector, the Japa-
nese have reinforced their positions
on the Teaching Railway, which BIZ

Capt. Charles E. Rosendahl, who
has devoted much Of his life to
selling the merits Of nghter-than-
air craft to a doubling public and
q skeptical Government, has re-
turned to Washington to continue
the work in which he pioneered, the
Navy Department announced last
night.
The Navy announcement gave
out no details on the nature Of
Capt. Rosendahl's duties other than
to say he would engage in lighter

Everybody seemed to think Diff
ferently. Everybody was fixing up
foxholes against the rain coming
down and the fellows going to their
planes saw them doing it and
thought somberly, They seem to
have plenty Of confidence in us"
The weather was bad all the way
up there, but then our side had
luck and the skies where the ships
were showed light and was feathered
over with clouds. But the Jap
planes had stationed themselves
along the clouds and were patrolling
the clouds like angry dogs patrol
ling a gate.
Planes seem to go slow when
coming in for attack. They are
hurtling along, Of course, the fast
est they know how, but they look
slow, sedate and unmoved at the
beginning, maybe because the mind
Is working 50 feverishly fast that
anything that Is going to happen
seems to be taking long time to
do so.
And our planes went slow, sedate
and unmoved-seeming toward the
clouds and the Japs while the 20
Japs untangled themselves from
their clouds and came prancing to
the meeting.
The torpedo planes were lower
than the others and to the rear.
They were concentrating on the
ships. The ships were spread out In
the shape Of a fan. There was g
heavy cruiser among them, and
that was the ship the torpedo planes
decided to get.

swede led the attack. As against
the other cruiser on that August
twilight, which now seemed 30 many
lifetimes past. there was q cloud

which the planes could dart and be

HoWIand Shaw Wins
Annual Award Of
Social Agencies
Loymon's Work Stressed
In Rehabilitation Of
DeIinquents, Criminals

The layman can do much to re-
habilitase juvenile delinquents be-
cause he, unlike . Judge or prison
odfcial, has no professional relation
ship with the delinquent, q. How
land Shaw, Assistant Secretary Of
State, declared yesterday as he re-
ceived the District Council OF So
cial Agencies annual award for dis

' and his untiring personal
labor In behalf Of a wise and EN-
cient administration Of Justice"
This occasion is not q personal
tribute to me-" MIR. Shaw said in his
speech Of acceptance, "but goes be-
yond that. It's true significance Is
q cause in which I believe firmly:
The role which the layman plays in
the rehabilitation Of the delinquent
and the criminal"
A crime is an isolating act which
separates the person who commits
1t from the community of which he
should be part, Mr.. Shaw said.
"1he layman, who is not profes-
sionally concerned with the GRIM
inal, as are judges or prison onlcials,
can play large part in rehabilitat-
Ing him under professional super.
vision and control"
