Nazi Steady Shelling
Develops 'Anzio Amble'

ANZIO BEACHHEAD.-Like most
battle areas, this beachhead de-
velops certain little Individual char
acteristics in the men who fight
here.
One is the "Anzio amble." It's the
way you walk through town after a
few weeks of steady shelling, and
consists of cat-a-cornered shuttle
which permits you to crowd closely
to the most convenient wall between
you and enemy guns.
Because of this habit all pedes-
trian traffic goes down one side of
every street, leaving the other abso-
lutely untraveled
Motor traffic through Nettuno en-
hances the wall-hugging tendency
and the Anzio amble. The town has
gotten a bad name because of the
constant shelling and no amount of
local chamber of commerce work
can convince military drivers that
it's lovely spot to linger. They fiat
ten their foot feeds to the floor,
hunch over the wheels and highball
through town.
The pedestrian can only fiat
ten against the wall and pray,
and comes to dread the huge
numbering trucks almost as much
as he does the possibility of a shell
landing in his precinct.

Sees Sufficient Bread;
Rationing May Be Avoided

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Confdence
that the United States would be able
to avoid rationing of bread, flour
and other wheat food products was
expressed by war food administra-
tion officials as new reports from the
winter wheat belt told of further i'm
provements in 1914 crop prospects.
Government grain experts are
now expecting wheat crop of more
than 800,000,000 bushels. Supple
menting the crop will be a reserve
of around 300,000,O00 bushels left
over from previous years.
The VIA has said that crop of
750,000,000 bushels would provide
enough of the grain for domestic
food and seed requirements, normal
livestock feeding and moderate ex-
ports.
However, continuation of the use
of wheat for more livestock feeding
than average, for alcohol production
and for large lend-lease commit
ments would necessitate, food off
cials said, considerable imports
from Canada. The United States has
been importing some wheat from
Canada for several months.

War Marriages
Are Made Easy
Legal Aid Society Acts as
Cupid's Assistant in
Cutting Red Tape.

NEW YORK. - There were only
a few hours left of the soldier S
leave and all they wanted to do was
to get married. Why not? They were
old sweethearts. But what a lot of
red tape-there wasn't enough time.
Then the legal aid society stepped
in and broke down the barriers.
And so they were wed.
Take the case of a sailor and his
girl. After three days of going from
office to office and clerk to clerk to
try and find the right answers-the
blood test, the 72-hour waiting
period, the license, the problem of
turning war bonds into cash and the
sailor was due to return to his ship
the next day-he just threw up his
hands:
I'D rather be behind a machine
gun than go through this business"
Supreme Court Helps.
Finally an attorney of the society
prepared petition to the Supreme
court to waive the waiting require
ment on the ground that a "grave
inconvenience" might be caused by
further delay. The waiver order
was issued, the processing of the
required blood test was expedited,
the license was issued, the cash was
provided and off they went, for bet
ter or worse.
1t isn't always as easy as this.
The society will make a speedy mar
riage possible for the soldier or
sailor, if everything is in order. But
not for the hasty-minded, the be-
trothed of the cocktail or week
end destinations.
The society made nearly 5000 ap-
plications on behalf of servicemen
last year for waivers of the 72-hour
law and every one of them was
granted. Handling more than 400
applications a month gives the So
ciety many headaches, though 'it is
a pleasure to help them get mar
ried," observes a member.
No Gin Marriages.
The legal aid society will have
nothing to do with so-called "gin |
marriages" The serviceman and |
his fancee must prove they have
known each other a reason
able length of time and that they
are sure of themselves. The service
is principally in expediting prepara-
tions for the ceremony, after inter-
views have established marital
worthiness.
Even then there are many COM
plications. Couples forget that some
times consent of parents is neces-
sary, when the girl is under Is and
the serviceman under 81. If they
are old enough they often forget to
bring along their birth certificates as
proof.
Zone wedding party, with brides
maids all gowned and ushers
dressed for the ceremony, de-
scended on the society one day."
related a member of the staff. "It
was like the department of agitation.
We rushed them across City Hall
park, gowns, flowers and all, to the
Supreme court. The waiver was
signed"

Letters From
Our Boys

Headquarters fifth army, public
relations section, Anzio Reachhead,
Italy, May IS:
Something new and very pleasant
had been added to chow that morn
ing. The men of a company in the
3rd "Marne" division on the Allied
fifth army's Anzio beachhead below
Rome formed a line starting at the
pyramidal tent housing the kitchen
and winding back through the sand
dunes of the bluff over looking the
placid Tyrrhenian sea.
The magic word eggs" was pass
ed down the line. Not the Canned
dehydrated stuff" but real, beautiful
originals. AS each man filed by
with a mess kit full of eggs and
bacon those waiting in line shifted
appraisingly at the unbelievable
morsels they saw.
In the tent two cooks were busy
frying eggs. P. &c. John H.
Ahlers of Laurel, Mont, was spec
ializing in the "sunny side up" kind
while Staff Sgt. Vincent A. Camp
bell, 151 North Broad street, Tren-
ton, N. Y, concentrated on "overs."
After the eggs the GI's held out
their mess kits at another stove
where Pvt. Sal D'Ambro, 2128 East
Fourth street, Brooklyn, N. Y,
dished out bacon.
Outside the tent the men were
given the balance of the meal:
prunes, coffee, sugar and cream.
1t was a pleasant way to start |
another day on the Anzio beach
head.

Bomber Raids Cost
Ndzis 5000 Planes
More Than $500 of Them
We're Lost in Battle.

LONDON. - American air attacks
have cost Germany's defensive
fighter force more than 5000 planes
since last November /, according to
up-to-date and reliable estimates.
Something approaching 5000 OF
the 5000 were fighters which Ger
man factories would have turned out
under an intensified production pro-
gram had it not been for devastat-
ing United States raids. The remain
der were shot down in aerial COM
bat.
Since the turn of the year.
American heavy bombers and their
fighter escort, together with medium
bombers and other fighters, have
claimed a total of 1850 German
fighters destroyed in battle.
The significance of the Nazi losses
was evident when set against the
fact that the German air forces
front line strength, bombers and
fighters combined, probably ran
around 1000 planes at the start of
the war.
In those days the Germans prob
ably had 100 per cent replacements
in reserve. Today, in the case of
fighters, they probably must draw
on their pipeline to the factories and
on current output.
Experienced observers believe
that destruction of the last three
months already had created a dan
gerous "airlock" in the Nazi pipe
line, and replacement will become
increasingly difficult.
That was expected to be true espe-
clally when big land operations be-
gin and the Germans are faced by
day in and day out challenge to
combat from their front lines back
to their industrial areas.
A high source said recently that |
in effective resistance the German |
air force efficiency had gone down
around 30 per cent, largely because /
OF a conservation campaign keeping
planes grounded unless conditions
force them to give battle.
Estimates from other sources
put the Luftwaffe strength now at
around 300 fighters fewer than in
November and probably 500 to 600
fewer than in January.

Formula for Triplets:
Once in 1859 Births

PALO ALTO, CALIF.-When trip.
lets were born here recently, Health
Officer Louis Olsen did some re-
search and concluded that plural
births occur approximately as the
powers of 81.
On this basis one confinement in
81 brings twins; triplets, once in
1869, the square of 81; quadruplets,
once in 658, SOB, the cube of 81.
There were 1886 births here be-
tween the two sets of triplets, only
II off from Olsen's calculation on
averages.

Conkine Ernzen Foods

Frozen meats, poultry and vege-
tables can be cooked satisfactorily
with or without previous thawing.
All reports indicate that frozen foods
require somewhat less time to cook
than similar fresh products, except
possibly foods cooked without pre-
vious thawing. Roasts, particularly,
would require time to thaw as well
as to cook.
