10th Air Force Officer
Summarizes Results
OF BIG Raids

WASHINGTON, March 23.-iR-
Fire bombs rained on Tokyo,
March 9, wrecked 20 per cent OF
the city's industry for probably
three months and made at least
1,2OO,0O0 homeless, goth Air
Force spokesman said today.
More than five per cent of To-
kyos war production, concentrat-
ed in approximately $4,000 home
industry" plants, was knocked out
for a full year, Brig. Gen. Laurls
Norstad told a news conference.
In the first incendiary attack on
the japanese capital, from 2Oo,ooo
to $50 600 buildings were destroyed
in an area of 1872 square miles.
These included some 5000 plants
of all sizes. Forty-five large fac
toreis were destroyed, 26 damaged
extensively, and 20 moderately
damaged. Sixteen others also SUI
fered some damage.
Fire attacks are being made on
Japanese cities because 1t is i'm
possible to bomb their many little
war industries with pin-point &C
curacy, the 10th Air Force chief
of staff said.

are to continue as director of Or

forced him to withdraw the appoint

Allies Carry Air War Ia
Climax Before ALL
Out Drive

LONDON, March %. -(P)- The
mightiest aerial onslaught in his
tory was carried to a crushing
climax today when more than 1000
Allied warplanes battered COM
munications in and around the Ger
man Ruhr in preparation for an
imminent Allied drive across the
Rhine.
Nazi troops and armor in 1000
square mile area facing Field Mar

armies were cut off from rear
bases after 1000 American heavy
bombers and fighters ripped up
II rail centers and three fleets of
Raj Lancasters blasted other sup
ply links with 11-ton obliteration
bombs and made direct attacks on
enemy troop concentrations.
Weeks Of such terrific bombing
have left the Ruhr cratered like
the moon and isolated from the
west Of Germany amid a tumble
Of twisted rail lines, broken high
ways and demolished bridges.
Air erewmen described the
weather as ideal for precision
bombing. While they were stitch
ing their ring of explosives around
the Ruhr hundreds of fighter
bombers from continental bases
hammered the inside Of the ring
in dawn-to-dusk relays through
pals of smoke. They began leap
ing to the attack even before the
sun had arisen.
With the Nazis' deadly Jet
planes driven from their forward
bases. the American team of L.
$50 Flying Fortresses and Liberia
tors and $50 Mustangs carrying
augmentation bombs were unop-
posed in their smashes at rail
lines.
Gladbeck, one Of nine German
communications centers hit yes
terday, came in for a mop-up at
tack today, along with the big Ruhr
supply center of Recklingshausen.
Nine other freight yards crammed
with equipment for German ar
mics were bombaded with ex-
trenlely good results.
Some $500 tons of explosives
were dumped on these Ruhr trans
portation spokes: Osnabrueck,
Rheine. Muenster and Coesfeld to
the north. and Hengstey. Geisecke,
Unna-Dortmund, Holzwickede and
Siegen to the east and southeast.
A force of British Lancasters
with 22,00O-pound giants in their
bomb bays knocked out a rail
bridge crossing northeast of Belle
field on one of the few routes still
open across the Weser river to
the Ruhr.
