BeIsion Bridge

STAVELO, Belgium. Dec. 20
- Delayed - Up - The Bel
gians built the bridge in 1910,
the Germans crossed il three
days ago in their offensive and
last night Is American combat
engineers blew it up - job
which was a big factor in halt
ing the Nazi forward thrust in
this sector.
The bridge was a 60-foot brick
and stone span over the Amb-
leve River a span needed by
the Germans if they are TO keep
their armored columns rolling
through American lines.
1t was the first bridge ever
blown up by Capt. James Rice
and his men, and this is the way
that % year old former Rich
mond, Calf, oil refinery en-
ployee did it.
1--WE had never had to destroy
a bridge before because we new
er knew before what it was to
be on the defensive" Rice said.
He used a half-ton of dyna-
mite in destroying the structure.
I'VE went down to inspect the
bridge during the afternoon"
Rice said" While we were look
ing it over the Germans opened
up on us with tank and ma
chine guns and | had to crawl
around a corner so fast ! lost
my helmet. 1t was too hot a
place to work in by daylight.
So Rice assembled his men
just before dark. loaded them on
a dynamite truck, drove TO the
last corner before the bridge and
parked until Nazi observers in
the hills beyond the river no
longer could see the area.
"When it was completely
black we carried 50-pound boxes
three blocks down the street"
said Rice. There was a lot of
glass and debris in the street.
To keep the Nazis from hearing
any noise we had artillery throw
a smoke she'll into the town
twice a minute for Is minutes.
The smoke also gave us further
cover.
by the time the last she'll
landed we had the dynamite in
place. We set four 30 second
fuses. We only needed one, but
we wanted to be certain it would
60 off.
Then we pulled the fuse ig-
nitcrs and ran like hell down
the street.
after we had run one block
and dived into building, that
bridge blew up like a Roman
candle. It was a beautiful ex-
plosion - knocked out windows
for three blocks.
Stores on one side of the
bridge crumbled like a land
slide out into the streets and
made a perfect roadblock -
and also we had a 30-foot gap
in that bridge. No Jerry tank
can broadjump that far.
"As the bridge blew up the
Germans aWoke and for 20 min
utcs they plastered the whole
area with tank and maChinegun
fire"

THE TELEPHONE TAX

OF all the new taxes the increase
in those on telephone calls seem
the hardest to understand. From
now on you will pay IS per cent on
every out-of-town call and IS per
cent on every local call. That runs
into folding money.
And we can't see the logic. Does
Washington hold that telephoning is
an amusement?
Would anybody claim it's q
pleasure under war conditions?
-
And no matter how ornamental
those telephone instruments may be
manufactured, you can't classify
them as costume jewelry, can you?
-
Maybe the tax trainers hold that
conversation Is q luxury. Perhaps
Washington feels we are all talking
too much.
We had come to think the tele-
phone was a household necessity,
almost like water and gas. We used
to possess a phone in the belief 1t
was an economical convenience.
Now we just sit around worrying
over fear that somebody may use
it for an outside call.

ner of the average telephone user
is shrinking up. There used to be
laughter and gay chatter on the
wire. Now it's business venture.
A Is per cent tax on out-of-town
calls is terrific, even if you refuse
to pay it. It is almost as expensive
to 60 out of town by telephone as
it is by auto.
And if she Is a slow talker you're
slated for bankruptcy.
And a tax Of Is per cent on your
bill for local calls from your own
bungalow is disturbing. You're los.
ing money the minute you take of
the receiver and give central the
number.
BY the time you've said ''Is this
you, honey2" you're in debt over
your head.

Dealers Warned
To Shun Onions

Clinton Campbell, OPA food Spe-
cialist, today warned retail grocers
that they would lose money If
they bought the 1914 crop of
Texas onions now being sold for
rs cents a pound by the whole
salerS.
The retail price ceiling on on
ions is three pounds for Is cents
and, at that price. retail grocers
would lose Z 2-3 cents for every
pound of onions they sold.
Campbell said the wholesalers
were charging such a high price
for the onions because no whole
sale ceiling for the 1914 onion crop
had been set. However, a whole
sale price ceiling will be issued in
Washington soon, he said.
