liypcrinSulinism is not difficult
to understand once you start from
fundamentals. 1t is II disturbance
Of the utilization Of sugars in the
body. We depend on the burning
of sugars for most of our energy
and muscular movements. Sugar.
are absorbed from the digestive
tract and enter the blood, which
has II quite constant percentage of
sugar. When a muscle contracts

Secretion of lnsulin
lnsulin is sccretcd hy certain
cells III the pancrcas. These cells
are distributed through the pan

called the i~lutS of l.ang,rnaus.
They do not pour their secretion

Invasion Coast Defenses
ShQtteredByU Bombers
FROM DAWN TO DUSK
Two Tons OF Bombs Per
Minute Dropped By
Allied Formations

LONDON, Wednesday, May 8
= Sky filling Allied armadas
spearheaded by hundreds of U. S.
Liberator bombers hammered Ger
man invasion coast defenses and
rail feeder lines from dawn to
dusk yesterday, hurting explosives
at a two-ton-per-minute clip and
smashing key functions at the rate
of one an hour in an unexampled
display of aerial might which went
almost unchallenged by the Ger
mans.
Jittery German radio announcers
predicting that the big Allied land
invasion was IMMINENT came on
the air just before midnight to
shout: Attention! Attention!
Enemy intruders entering western
Germany" This signified that
giant Raj night bombers were
carrying the pre-invasion on
slaught into the 10Th straight day.
The Raj, in a 1,O00-plane at
tack Monday night, had shoWered
more than $500 tons of explosives
on targets in Belgium, France,
Germany, Italy before the Ameri-
can daylight fleets took over yes
terday in grinding attrition pre-
liminary to actual cross-channel
troop smashes.
Allied sorties daily were running
into the 1000 and 800 brackets,
and presumably yesterdays at
tacks would approximate those of
the days before, but an official
estimate was not available.
Late yesterday U. S. Mustang
and Thunderbolt fighter-bombers
attacked rail yards at Charkori
in Belgium, and Somain and To1r-
Going in northern France, along
with an airfield at Peronne with
out single loss. Most of these
attacks were being concentrated in
a circle around Lille, ranging 70
miles inland along vital traffic
routes to the Calais coast, which
was the main objective of the big
bombers.
Nothing like this sustained cam
paign now running through its 18th
straight day has ever been seen
in 1913, and it is still rising in
violence. These pre-invasion on
slaughts which how include mass
dive-bombing at low level with
little interference, were of a signi-
ficance that could not be mistaken.
Since May Day dawn American
and Allied airmen have blasted
more than IS rail functions and
other key targets supplying the
German Atlantic wall barricades
Just across the Channel, and roar
ed inland past the old Magnet
Notifications along the German
border.

U. S. and SPAIN
MAKE new DEAL

WASHINGTON, May 2. -R Al
lied diplomats went out after big
ger game tonight-the Portuguese
supply Of wolfram for the German
war machine-after announcing an
agreement sharply cutting the flow
of the vital tungsten ore from Spain
to Germany.
Spain agreed to cut her ship
ments of the steel hardening met.
al to fourth of last years volume
and a tenth Of what Germany had
expected tn S year. In return
Spain's vital oil supply was re-
stored through lifting of British.
American embargo.
Anglo-American negotiations with
Portugal, which Ships considerably
more of wolfram (Tungsten ore)
than Spain, began some time ago.
It was believed that settlement Of
the Spanish questions would speed
the Lisbon talks.
The United States and Britain
have agreed with Spain that the
Nazis may obtain not more than
20 tons of Spanish wolfram for each
of the next two months, and not
more than 40 tons monthly the rest
of this year eff as practical mat

GAMBLING DENIED
BY ARMY OFFICER
NEWPORT NEWS, Va, May

NEWPORT NEWS, Va, May 2
-tR-Brig. Gen. J. R. fitzpatrick,
commanding officer of the Hamp-
ton Roads port Of embarkation,
said today that there are no slot
machines or any other gambling
devices available to enlisted men
at Camp Patrick Henry or any
other installation of the Hampton
Roads port of embarkation.'
General Kilpatrick's statement
was issued in reply to an assertion
by Senator Bridges GRIND that
he had been informed some sold
iers were losing large part of
their pay in Army camp slot
machines and that he had relayed
to the War Department COM
plant that Camp Patrick Henry,
Va. was zone place where the
situation is extremely bad"
Bridges, asserting he had asked
the War Department whether any,
one had been given permission to
install slot machines at military
posts. said information had reach
ed him that "the ownership and
control of theee machines is in the
hands of very small clique close
to the administration"

Navy headquarters IN Washington
and the Admiralty in London.
The American coups brought to
695 the number of Japanese ships
sunk, probably sunk or damaged
by United States submarines alone
including SO warships.
Aside from the combatant
vessels, the newly announced lists
included:
Sunk by American subs - One
large tanker. two medium size car
go transports, five medium size
cargo vessels, one large naval
auxiliary.
By British subs - Four supply
ships, one reported as medium
sized, two more as amaller, and
the fourth not described.
The U. S. Navy, in line with
long established policy of keeping
the enemy guessing, gave no de-
tails, but the British were more
communicative.
The British-sunk destroyer went
down south of the Andaman islands
in the Indian ocean while escort
ing supply ship, which also was
torpedoed. Another supply vessel,
strongly escorted, was sunk in the
same area. In Malacca Strait be-
tween Malaga and Sunatra the
British reported destruction of a
medium sized vessel with a deck
cargo of motor transport, and the
two smaller ships.
