 Tine Times said 1t found it dis' ficult Co so aeny sharp dlstlhetioh between the domestic platform os the two parties, and found Ion the issue of foreign policy we believe that the scales tip heavily in faVor Of the Democratic party"
 The newspaper then gave three reasons for It's attitude.

 London. Oct. i6 -(UP)-- RAF heavy boinberS set the German naval base of WilholmShaven ablaze under . great weight of explosive and fire bombs last night, carrying forward c sustained offensive that in 4s hours has spread more than 22,000 tons of bombs across targets in the Nazi homeland from the North Sea to the Ruhr valley.
 Switching the attack from the battered and still-burning Ruhr, c fleet of some 400 heavy bomberS and night fighters of the Royal Air Force dropped almost 2,000 tons z bombs across the sprawiing docks, submarine pens, naval irstaila tons. railway lines and canals in the Wil- helmshaven area.
 Returning flyers said their bombs touched of great explosions and set fires raging through Q dozen sec- tons of the NaZi base.
 At the same time, Q diversionary force of British Mosquito bombers flew past Wilhelmshaven to dror their blockbusters on Hamburg while other raiders laid mines ii, unidentified enemy waters.
 RAF night fighters supported the bombing fleets and famed out on their own to strafe enemy air- fields on the continent. Eleven British planes were lost in the widespread operations.
 Sustained Attack
 The Wilhelmshaven assault rounded out 48 hours of sustained attack that surpassed in concen. trated fury any aerial offensive vel launched by the Anglo bomber commands.
 In the 4S-hour period that hega1, Saturday morning, seven aerial task forces numbering well over 7,O0C bombers and fighters hit five ajoI targets in Germany at 6 cost of 8 planeS-slightly over one per cent of the forces involved.
 Duisburg and Cologne bore the brunt of the shattering assault. The RATS heavies dropped more than 11,00O tons of bombs and 6OO,00C incendiaries on Duisburg in two consecutive attacks, the first in daylight Saturday and the second early Sunday morning, turning the city into a great smoking torch that lighted up the Ruhr valley for 200 miles.
 Cologne took another 1000 tons of five and demolition bombs from the heavyweights of the American 8th air force in two daylight attacks Saturday and Sunday, and Dussel- dort was hit by the Americans with an estimated 1000 tons in a sup- porting raid Sunday.
 Picked Force
 A picked force of British Lan- caster bombers joined in the day. light assault yesterday. winging out high over the Ruhr for precision attack on the Sorpe dam 20 miles southeast of Dortmund.
 Flying above the range of the Garnan flak--in contrast to the low-level technique lsed in the at- tacks on the Mohne and Eder dams in May, 194S-the raiders dropped l2, pound earthquake bombs across the massive dam and appar- ently preached 1t.
 The dam-busters used delayed-ac- ton bombs in the Sorpe attack, which prevented immediate obser- vation of the results, but reconnais- sance flyers later reported that T number of direct hits had been scored. ExpeEts said that 4 only

Public Health Nurse
Protects Community
Against Disease

Public health nursing is the
application of the nurses skill
toward accomplishing the broad
purpose of public health-pro-
viding a safe environment, pro-
lection against disease, and bet
ter opportunities and incentives
for healthful living So said
Miss Louise Holmes, advisory
nurse, field unit, Mississippi
State Board of Health.
OF comparatively recent ORR
gin, public health nursing was
at first limited to caring for the
INDECENT sick, Miss Holmes ex-
planned, stating that today this
service cuts across all economic
levels in the fight to hold the
line against disease in homes OF
rich and poor alike.
'The $4,000 public health nurs-
es In the United States make up
the largest group of professional
health workers in this country
said she. "Mississippi's 200 public
health nurses serve in homes,
schools, health departments, elm
les, industrial plants, and com
munities. Though her duties
vary, the nurses chief purpose
is always that of working to-
ward the prevention of disease
and the promotion of health"
