Prof. Bogonolets bases his whole revolu

conquest OF all disease, including premature old
age at 20 or so, hinges keeping the connective

The tissue is the network of cells that holds

Prof. Bogomolets and his colleagues made

Many laboratory tests on cancer tunnorS trans

BY BAUKHAGE
Net0s analyst and Commentator.

The U. S. airborne forces are
made up Of both paratroop and
glider forces. They are separate
from the troop carrier command
which transports them, just as the
foot soldier is distinct from the sea-
man who carries him from shore
to shore.
The paratroopers Ga part Of the

ing enemy airports of suitable ter
rain where the troop transports or
glider planes cannot yet land.
The Paratroopers
When operations require large
numbers of men and more compi-
Gated equipment, such as those per-
formed back of the shore defenses
and even much farther inland in
France, paratroopers are supple
mented by the troops landed from
transports and elders. This fire.

must capture or prepare air strips
for this purpose.
Allied airborne troops were used
effectively at, the landing in Sicily,
where General Montgomery said
they shortened the campaign by at
least week. They also proved of
great value in New Guinea.
The full extent Of their per-
Torrance in the invasion of Europe
has yet to be revealed but we have
General Eisenhower own word as
to their value and his praise has
been unstinted.
The chief function of the soldier
of the air until recently has been
the destruction Of enemy communi-
cations and installations such as
ammunition and supply dumps,
dynamiting bridges and wrecking
railway functions behind the lines.
Dickenson County herald. [volume] (Clintwood, Va.) 1939-195?, 1944-06-29

Now they are prepared TO engage
the enemy in large-scale operations
which reached major proportions
for the first time in France. Pre-,
ceding the Normandy landings, one
Of their jobs was to prevent de-;
struction of certain points like
bridges and other 2, installations
which the troops advancing from the
beachhead wanted to make use Of
later.
Such action is possible because
jeeps, one-ton trailers, howitzers,
heavy and light calibre machine
guns, mortars, mines, and other
equipment including food, medical
supplies, water, and Of course am
munition, can be transported by the
troop carrier command. The troops
have food and ammunition Suffi-
cient for about three days susie
nance without replenishment. 4
Glider Pilots job ),
Although the glider pilot has no
engine to worry about, he must
know meteorology, navigation,
aerial reconnaissance, photography,
maintenance and radio communica-
ton. He must learn to land quickly
and near trees or other obstacles
where the troops can take cover.
And then when the pilot lands, all
he has to do is fight his way back
to his own lines with the rest of his
one-time passengers. Like them, he
has to know all the commando
knows.
Some Of the tales which have al
ready gone into the growing saga Of
the airborne forces are marvellous.
One is told Of an adventure which
took place early in the invasion Of
France.
A glider, its tow1ine cut, was sud-
denly left in the dark of the moon.
Some light is necessary for land
ing, of course. In the period when
the moon was clouded, there was
nothing for the pilot to do but to
keep on descending. He did and
landed unexpectedly but on very
smooth terrain. The troopers quick
ly debouched and sought cover as
they are trained to do. But there
was no cover. They found they were
on the wide, fiat roof of building.
Tbov found an entrance fhrOI1Oh
the roof and cautiously crept down
the stairs. To their surprise, they
discovered they were in building
full of German soldiers and which
housed the German headquarters
for that area. But the Americans
were armed, and needless to say
the Germans were somewhat sur.
prised and quickly surrendered.

When the story of the present war
is written, the outstanding logistical
novelty-the feature which differs
most from the methods employed in
the movement Of fighting units in
previous wars-wiu be the use of
airborne troops.
Already the airborne units have
been revealed as vital factors in
the invasion landings, where they
have been used on a scale which
dwarfs anything heretofore from the
first widely publicized Russian ex-
periments in 1880 to the German air
invasion of Crete or the remarkable
achievements of smaller units in
Burma.
Since it is taken for granted that
the United States is going to carry
the major burden in the later phases
of the invasion, it is a matter of
satisfaction to know that the idea of
transporting troops by plane was
first developed by the United States
army.
No one will be surprised that it
was that stormy petrol of aviation,
Gen. BILLY" Mitchell, whose wings
beat so futilely against the hide
bound brasshats of his day, who is
credited with arranging the first
demonstration of troop transporta-
ton by air.
The report Of his first fruitless
demonstration is buried so deep in
the war department files that can
only quote from lay sources con-
corning it. But it seems that in 1923
ten soldiers parachuted from a Mar
tin bomber onto Kelly field in Texas.
With them went machine gun equip
ment. All landed safely and in three
minutes after they hit the ground
the machine gun was assembled.
Officers who observed the ''stunt"
(Which is what it was then con-
sidered were not impressed. That
is, the American officers. Some Rus
slams were present. They made
their paratroopers were descending
to earth to the "ohs'' and 'ahs'' of
American movie audiences.
Germany observed but went to
work in silence, with the results with
which we were made painfully
familiar from the days Of the in
vasion of Poland on. But "Billy"
Mitchelps idea slumbered in the
files and he did not live to see its
renascence here four years ago.
Maxi Refnements
These facts have been forgotten
by most people who probably think
that the Russian experiments were
the first. The Germans picked up
and improved the Russians tech
nique, working out their paratroop
plans as part Of the developments
of their then peerless Luftwaffe,
whose threatening shadow moulded
European diplomacy before the out
break of the war.
The German paratroopers demon
strated their real value in the blitz
against the low countries.
Tt was not until April of 1910 that
the United States troop carrier COM
mand, which carries troops in trans
ports and elders, was organized.
Now it is larger than the whole of
our air force of three years ago.
The airborne force, created a few
weeks earlier, is now numbered in
entire divisions, as we know from
German reports, and includes tens
of thousands Of fighting men and
technical personnel.
The British paratroopers were
used effectively as far back as 1912
and they made the first contact with
German troops in North Africa in
November Of the same year.
