A problem of in-law trouble, typi-
cal of those faced by many Army
wives, comes before members of
s'The American Woman's Jury" to-
day Thursday, las to 2 p. M,
over Mutual.
A young bride left her home in
her mother-in-law's care to join her
soldier husband at camp. They had
built their house on land given them
as wedding gift by his parents.
While the wife was away, her hus-
bands sister and family moved in,
and when she returned the in-laws
were reluctant to move out. Now
her husbands family are very rude
to her. She wants to know if she
should ask her husband to give up
their home and move away or
whether she should endure their
theatment

(Continued from Page D Brunswick and shoot down l25 German planes In heavy battles.
 The annihilation campaign against the rail network feeding the Ger man anti-invasion defenses was pressed in full force during the night when Royal air force heavy bombers famed over France to hit Tours, Orleans, Le Mans and Bou- logne.
 'eThe targets were clearly identi- fled and the bombing was well con- centrated," an air ministry conl- munique said.
 Speedy Mosquito bombers ranged deep inland to drop blockbusters on Cologne, industrial capital of the Rhineland, and other RAF planes hit the mysterious military install lations' on the French coast and mined enemy waters.
 Seven RAF planes were missing in the broadside attacks. The main weight fell on Tours, Orleans and Le Mans, the three biggest rail junc- tions on an arc 65 to 12O miles south and west of Paris.
 Soon after midnight the RAT striking force streamed out over southeast England in a close-pack- ed procession which took 30 nain- utes to pass. Soon afterward heavy explosions on the French coast shook English towns.
 The night attack was Sandwiched between twilight assaults closing out yesterdays all-day lombard ment, the first full scale action after a five-day lull enforced by bad weather, and the dawn resump- ton of the nonstop offensive.
 Wac after wave of high-nying planes shuttled to France and per- haps beyond in the early morning hours.
 Soon after midnight German coastal batteries fires about 10 rounds across the straits, but Brit ish guns did not reply.
 The new offensive was spear headedheaded on it's first day by about l,50O flying fortresses, Lbera- tors and escorting fighters which battled through massed German de- fense Squadrons and stiff anti-air- craft fire to pound Berlin and the aircraft center of Brunswick, 12O miles to the west.
 Twenty-six heavy bombers and 19 fighters were missing in the attack which cost the hard pressed Ger man air force 125 of its fighters.
 A Stockholm dispatch said the attack on the Messerschmitt plant at Brunswick was unusually heavy, and many fires were started throughout the city. The panic stricken population left shelters be- fore the all-clear, and casualties were believed heavy, the dispatch said. It reported direct hits on the Friedrichstrasse rail station at Ber- lin and described the station as wiped out" Fire brigades rushed to the capital from other cities to fight the extensive fires.

 Adding to the blows dealt the Japanese in North Burma by the swift unsupported Allied columns, an American trained Chinese force in the Mogaung vallbey was liqui- dating the trapped enemy garrison at Warong, about 30 miles north- west of Myitkyina.
 The Myitkyina garrison practical ly had been isolated by Allied tro>1S striking across the road and rail lines over which Japanese supplies and endorsements would have to move. Airborne Chindits had es- abolished a road block 40 miles south of Mogaung on the Mandalay- Myitkyina railway and held it against Japanese attacks.
 Merrill's Marauders west of the city had established block on the road to Mogaung. 28 miles from Myitkyina, and 1t was disclosed to- day that the village of Sigyun. di- rectly south of Myitkyina, had been occupied and Allied patrols were in Katkyo, another village to the east.
 Meanwhile, Allied headquarters disclosed that in the early stages of the Imphal battle, the entire 5th India 900 men--and their full equipment was flown 2S0 miles from the Arakan fighting front into the Imphal Plain with out the loss of man or a plane. It was the first time an entire ip- fantry division had moved from one front to another by air.

(Japanese broadcasts yesterday reported that the raid had caused some damage" to ground installa- tions at Soerabaja)
 Thought the raid was not on as large a scale as previous American er-based attacks on Truk, the Marianas and the Palau Islands, 1t provided 8 striking demonstration of the Allies ability to coordinate their three eastern commands in the days to come against Japan's footed empire.
 Admiral Lord Louis Mountbat- tens forces, which presumably in- cluded carriers and other warships, sailed more than 2,600 miles from their advance base at Ceylon in the Bay of Bengal to participate in the attack. They previously had car- ried out two similar raids on Sa- bang. Japanese base of Sumatra at the western end of the Dutch East Indies.
 Admiral Chester W. Nimitz's Central Pacific command also pre- sumably furnished carriers and warships from the biggest fleet in the world for the raid, while Mac Arthur's main contribution was Liberator Iand-based bombers, mak- ing their seventh flight to Soeraba- ia.
 The Japanese navy did not chal- lenge the Allied warshipS and no surface action was involved, a spokesman for MacArthur said. A hospital ship close to the target area was carefully avoided.
 Most of the destruction was wrought by the carrier based planes in a series of shuttle raids during daylight. while the night bombers caused further extensive damage" |" especially in the railway yards, MacArthur's communique said.
 The fact that only 10 ships were attacked in the harbor and that only a few enemy planes were caught on the ground or shot down indicated that the Japanese have withdrawn their main naval and air strength farther north, even as they pulled back from the main strongholds in the central and southwest Pacific.
