LONDON, Nov. 20-More than
$50 American planes today bombed
and strafed the Ruhr Valley of
Germany, imminently threatened
by four advancing Allied armies.
Berlin said other American planes
were striking Southern Germany
from the south for the third success
sive day.
An odd combination of 160 heavy
bombers and more than 700 Mus
tang and Thunderbolt fighters and
fighter bombers worked over an
oil plant at Gelsenkirchen and the
sprawling railroad yards at Mum
ster, both fairly close to the erupt-
ing, front. The preponderance of
fighters suggested that considerable
German air opposition was ex-
pected
Swarms of fighters flew back and
forth on the Channel coast where
blue skies, marked only by slight
haze, provided the first break in a
week end of adverse flying weather.
The Italy-based United States
18th Air Force raided Southern
Germany 600 strong both Saturday
and yesterday but the Britain based
8th was grounded.
On the continent tactical combat
units, despite hazardous flying
weather, joined in the seething bat
tie up and down the western front.
American and British fighter and
medium bombers made 5000 trips
across the front lines, poured loads
of bombs on German communica-
tions lines and belted them with
machine-gun fire.
United States 9Th Air Force pilots
flew 1900 sorties Thunderbolts and
Mustangs shot down Is Nazi fight
ers, blew up 46 locomotives, 300 rail
cars and 270 motor trucks.
Five hundred medium and light
bombers worked ahead of the Amer
ican 9th, Sd and 1st Armies all day
long.
For the first time AIS invader
bombers few with Marauders and
Havocs on tactical missions.
Thirteen fighters and two bombers

First 3 Persons Apply
For G| JobIess Aid;
Only One Is Eligible

The first three persons to apply
for unemployment compensation
Nnder the CT bill of rights visited
the United States Employment Serv-
ice ofices here yesterday, but only
one of the three was considered
eligible for the payments, Lewis F.
Springer, assistant director of the
District Unemployment Conpensa-
ton Board, reported today.
One of the three was a WAAC.
She was not eligible for the Fed
eral benefits since the WAACS were
not members of the armed forces.
WACS, members of the successor
organization, are entitled to the
benefits.
The second was a veteran Of less
than 80 days service. He wasn't
eligible for the Federal payments,
either, because the first eligibility
Evening star., 1944-09-05

requirement is service Of more than
90 days except In cases of earlier dis
charge because Of injury incurred ia
line Of duty.
Research Worker.
The third was a veteran Of nearly
40 months service. An economic
research worker, he had been laid
on for lack Of work. II his claim
is approved. he will get his 1rst
payment September 13 for the week
ending September is, Mr.. Springer
said.
A Veterans Administration ON
cial said veterans would be wise to
take advantage Of State unemploy-
ment compensation benefits If they
are entitled to them rather than
exhaust their rights to Federal
BENEFITS. But that won't work in
the District.
The District unemployment COM
penSation law, Mr.. Springer point
ed out, rules that If a veteran is en-
titled to both Federal and State
compensation, he must exhaust his
Federal benefits first.
Limit Under Federal Bill.
The Veterans Administration Of
flcial had suggested it was prefer
able to take advantage Of State un-
employment benefits If veterans
qualify because the CT bill puts a
limit of So weeks on their Federal
benefits and they might need those
payments later on.
Mr.. Springer, who said there was
an Unemployment Compensation
Board agent at each USES ONCE to
handle veterans claims, predicted
that few veterans would apply for
the benefits now because most of
them can find work.
