plies to Russia last year got through
safely, q marked Improvement over
1912 when only 88 out Of 100 escaped
the Nazi U-boats and bombers

said az total of 100000 tons of sup
plies worth $4,243, 804, 900 had reach
ed there since the beginning of the

In 1913, shipments to the Red

double those Of the previous year,
he said. But more important in
1943 was the fact that only one per
cent Of the ships carrying this car

laid down at an American pier for
delivery but gave no hint as to the
amount that finally reached the

scribed the average German civilian
as unhappy over the war and not
expectart Of victory, although con-

News of the widespread Allied
bombings of Europe have filtered
into the country despite close CEN
