Bradley Reconnaissance U.S.Army Air Forces

America's newest air weapon, the P-61 Black Widow, has made it's appearance over the battlefields of France, it was revealed today.
 Under the command of Brig. Gen. Ned Schramm, of Largo, Fla, the P-61's have measured up to advance notice, pilots reported. The high altitude night fighter, whose details were revealed by the War Depart ment recently, was described as very "well-behaved."
 Weighing more than 10000 pounds, nearly as much as a med ium bomber, the plane was said to climb faster than any other twin engined plane. Powered by two Pratt & Whitney engines, the P-61 carries 20mm. cannon. It has ac- communications for a crew of three but usually flies with only pilot and combination radioman-naviga- tor. The crews were given special night-hight training in America and England. Y
 Schramm commands the 9th Air Defense Command recently activat- ed for air defense in all U.a s. held territory in France. The command coordinates antiaircraft, aircraft warning and fighter units into a system of mobile defense, which will be expanded as the front broadens.

Draft Boards Will Aid GIs
 In Getting Jobs Alter War

Now, for the sake of argument, let's pretend you want to return to your old job, which is exactly what many GIs want to do.
 In the first place, you have to apply to your re-employer for your old position within 40 days after your discharge from the service. Once you've done this, he has to take you back unless his circum- stances have changed so as Ito make it impossible or unreasonable to reinstate" you.
 After you have made your ap- plication, the law states that your old employer must take you back without loss of seniority and he cannot fire you without cause" within a year.
 In addition to the protection you get under the law, the CIO and the AFL have agreed to give you month of job security for every month you were in the service af- ter Sept. 1, 1940. This applies not only to veterans who were union members before their induction but also to those who worked but did- mt belong to a union and to those who never held job before.
 If your old boss should fail to give you your job back after you have made application, you can file suit in U. s. District Court where, if he is reasonably satisfied that you have a case, the U. s. Attorney will handle your case without cost to you.
Bradley beam., 1944-08-26

One of the biggest concerns of American fighting men overseas is this one: "What kind of job am I going to get after I come march, ing home again ?"
 The answer:
 You can have your old job back if you want it. And if you don't, you will get a crack at another one, a job for which your training in the service has fitted you.
 Here's the way it's going to work:
 A new memorandum on veter- ans assistance has been issued by National Selective Service Head quarters appointing a re-employ- ment committeeman to every local board in the country. His job is to help place you in employment af- ter the war.
 Let's suppose, for a starter, that the job you left behind isn't avail able when you return. Maybe your employer went out of business. Or maybe your old job doesn't exist any more.
 In either case, your first recourse is your old draft board. There you will be placed in contact with the unemployment committeeman who will review your service career, find out just what kind of work you are qualified to do. Then he will go to bat for you.
 If you can't get or don't want your old job, you will probably be referred to the veterans employ ment representative of your home town U. s. Employment Service office. He will be in touch with employers not only in your com munity but all over the country and he'll be able to recommend the best place to get the kind of work you want and can do.
 If you want a job with the Fed eral Government, you'll be sent to the nearest U. s. Civil Service of- flee or post office for assistance. All veterans will have five points added to their scores in Govern ment examinations and those with service connected disabilities will have ten points added. Also, a new Civil Service policy reserves 25 per cent of all Federal jobs for return ing war veterans and examinations for many jobs will be open only to veterans.
 If you want to buy a farm or rehabilitate your old business with the aid of Federal loan, you can get one through the GI Bill of Rights. And if you want railroad job you will be referred to the nearest office of the U. s. Rail- road Retirement Board where you II find out what jobs are open and how you can qualify.

Road to Berlin-via Russia

The big news on this important front was the sudden turnabout of Romania, former stalwart satellite of the Reich. With Soviet columns surging across Romanian soil, King Michael issued proclamation ac- cepting the peace offer proffered jointly by Russia, Britain and the United States. General Konstantin Sanatescue took over the premier ship formerly held by Antonescu who is reported to be in Berlin ex- horting the Romanians to carry on for the Nazis. The proclamation contained the following points:
 IA new national government
 will be formed.
 2. Russian peace terms are ac.
 cepted.
 3. Romania is to be an Ally of
 the United Nations.
 4. Romania is taking her fate in-
 to her hands and will fight the
 "enemy."
 5. All citizens must rally around
 the throne.
 6. The Vienna award by which Hungary received part of Pennsylvania from Romania under the dictate of Nazi Ger many's is repudiated. Romania has been at war since 22 June 1914, and her switch pre- sages the imminent equalization of Bulgaria and Hungary.

Maj. Gen. JosephPier Koe- mig, commander of the French Forces of the Interior and mili- tary governor of Paris, gave his official version of the deliver ance of the capital:
 On the morning of Saturday, Aug. 10, the National Council of Resistance and the Paris Com naittee of Liberation, fin agree ment with the national delegate representing the Provisional Government of the French Re public, ordered a general insur- rectiOn i'm Paris and fin the Pari- sian district.
 The French Forces of the In- terior. to the number of 5O,OOO armed men, supported by several hundred thousand unarmed pa triOts, went into action imme- diately. The Paris police, who had previously gone on strike, seized the police prefecture and the He de Ia Cite. They turned the He de Ia Cite into a bastfOn against which German attacks broke down.
 Toward IF. M. yesterday, Aug. 22. after a fOur-day strug- gle, the enemy had been beaten everywhere and the patriots had occupied all public buildings. Representatives of Vichy were arrested or are in flight.
 Thus the people of Paris have taken a prominent part i'm the liberation of the capital.
 Long live France!
 .Marseille, the second city o1 France, and its greatest seapor fell to a swift attack by French in, 'antry. Resistance in this importan' city was relatively slight.
 Toulon, the big naval base 21 miles east of Marseille was stil holding out but latest reports con sider it's fall imminent as French troops were fighting within ten yards of the ports docks. General Patch's Seventh Army advanced northward and has taken he town of Grenoble. The fast forces covered over 140 niles in twenty-four hours and an sarly morning radio report on Thursday from Switzerland claimed hat Allied troops had already cached the border of that neutral state.

RADIANT LIVING
Triumphant Through Spirit
by REV. c. M. 0RIFFETH
Pastor Methodist Church. Cecilton, Nd.

You may be one of many who
wonder why they have so much
trouble in their lives, why
everything seems to go wrong, why
failure is always dogging their
footsteps.
But. on the other hand, there are
others who have discovered that
they are enabled to live triumph
antly above the many defeats
which many suffer, simply
because they are enabled to
derive a power from the realm of
the spiritual which is a power far
greater than their own.
1t is absolutely true that in the
realm of the spiritual there is a
superhuman power available for
you.
The life of no one was more
filled with conflict than was that
of the Apostle Paul's. With a
weakened body and without
financial backing, he dared to
penetrate with his GOspel-message
world of solid paganism.
Confronted on every side with a
thousand dangers and with bitter
enemies, he was we'll aware of his
own personal weakness and of the
crushing responsibility of the task
to which he had been called.
Yet, so real was the power of the
spiritual to him that he exclaimed: ]
Il can do all things through Christ
who strengthened me-"
And so can you too be strong.
In the realm of the spiritual there
awaits the Christ to help you to /
live a successful life. He is able
to set your feet upon the solid
rock of an invincible confidence. I
He is able to direct your feet into
those paths which lead to victory.
