Oil Refineries Hit By B-29s; Fleet Nearby
By WILLIAM F. THREE

 United Press War Correspondent (ETAOIN SHRDLU LIN LIN UNU
 Guam, Thursday, July 26 - (UP) - Superfortresses blasted three more vital oil refineries today and more than 1,200 U. s. and British carrier planes blew the Jap anese air force from the skies over western Honshu, burn- ing Kure naval base to fia- ish off remnants of Japan's imperial fleet.
 From 75 to 100 B-29'S struck in a precision raid near Tokyo starting shortly, before midnight as the U. S. Third Fleet maneuvered off shore after it's devastating two-day strike at Japan's great inland sea anchorage which blasted at least seven enemy warships.
 Jointly Attacked
 Bombing at medium altitude the Superforts struck Japanese oil re- finerieS and installations. Targets were the Mitsubishi oil refinery, the enemy's largest producer of avia. tion gasoline; the Havana Petrol cum Refinery and the Asaisti Oil Co.,, adjoining each other in the Kawasaki area on Tokyo bay.
 The raid followed by less than 36 hours 8 record strike by 625 Su- perforts on seven industrial targets in the Osaka and Nagoya areas.
 Thundering back for their second straight blow at the great inland sea anchorage of Kure yesterday the carrier pilots shot their way through a blazing screen of flax and enemy fighters to get at the seven or more major Japanese war; ships they had riddled with bombs and rockets.
 The Japanese countered first with a terrific anti-air>raft barrage that turned the sky into a rainbow colored bell. Then they sent their hoarded fighter planes aloft in 6 last desperate bid to save the fleet. United Press War Correspondent Earnest Hoberecf1t reported from one of the attacking carriers that the enemy aerial opposition appear ed to have been srnothered after a furious battle.

 Ilustrious Career
 The resignation of John A. Coe, 6r., brings to close an illustrious career, which began during Amer tcan's gas-hght era on March 21, 1885. At the age of 19, the venerable head of one of Waterbury's leading industries. entered the employ of a small Ansonia brass industry as office boy. An indefatigable worker and visionary young man who dis played great faith in the en1- bryic brass business that was struggling to gain a foothold tn New England, MT.

British Mddleclass
 Anti-Conseruatiue
By CHARLES T. MAILMAN United Press Corresnnndent

Churchill arrived in London shortly after 3:20 p. m. and left by automobile for 10 Downing street immediately.
 Tonight he will DC received in au- dience by King George VI. He arrived to find British political forecasters predicting that his Con- servative party probably would not poll more than 40 per cent of the popular vote but it was generally expected he would retain a plurality if not a majority in the house of commons.
 The London stock exchange, a barometer of political opinion, was virtually at standstill. Opinion in financial circles was that the Churchill government probably would win majority but there was little betting on the outcome. Betting At Minimum There was a growing inclination that whichever party wins the elec- tioll 1t will be confronted with prob lens of such magnitude that par tisanship will quickly fade into the background.
 All preparations were completed for a start of the count between g a. m. and 10 a. m. 4 a. m. and 5 a. m. EWT) tomorrow. The re- suits are expected to be known by 5 p. m. (Noon EWT).
 Chief interest centered on whether the Conservative party would elect sufficient members to the house of commons to warrant Churchill forming new govern ment. It was expected that the actual division of members would be close, possibly with no party winning an absolute majority.
 If the popular vote shows that the Conservative party has received fewer than majority of the pop ular vote it was expected that it would cause considerable modifica- tion of Churchill's policies in the event he carries on with a new gov- ernment.

On the morning of July IA, 1945, he left his room ing house at 8:45 and after mak- ing purchase, he went to Bruno's restaurant, an eating place with full liquor privileges, located at No. 34 Savings street, Waterbury, arriving at about 9:05.

Twining Will Lead B-29s 

Washington, July 25-(UP)-Ja- pan was left with a grim warning today that American bombers soon will be hitting Japanese war cen- ters at 8 rate greater than that which paralyzed Germany.
 It. Gen. Ira c. Baker. Deputy Commander of Army Air Forces, de- hvered the bad news in announcing that It. Gen. Nathan F. Twining is taking over command of the 10th airforce and its fleets of hard-hit- ting Superfortresses. Twining suc- ceeds Mai. Gen. Curtis E. Lemay.
 Tempo Will Increase
 Baker told a news conference that not only more bombs but improved bombing tactics were going into the Japanese war. Instead of the pin- point bombing technique employed against German factories, he said. it has been found more advantag- eous to scatter explosives over wider areas of Japan's industrial sections.
 The reason, Twining said, is to be found in the Japanese method of scattering their industry.
 Baker promised that Japan would rock under the impact of nearly 50

Debate Seen On Charter
 Terms
l ermS
By JOHN L. CUTTER

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Washington, July 25-(UP)-The Senate split today on the question of how the United States should place armed forces at the disposal of the United Nations Security council.
 The argument, first to arise in senate consideration of the United Nations Charter, centered on this technical issue:
 After it has ratified the treaty which calls for member nations to provide the council with sufficient force to prevent future aggression, should the United States supply her share by:
 l. A joint resolution approved by majority vote of both houses of con- gress.
 2. A treaty requiring two-thirdS vote of the senate for ratification. 3. Presidential decree.
 Technicality
 Tied into the argument was the question of whether the American delegate on the Security Council could vote such troops into action without specific congressional ap- proval.

TRUMAN FLIES T0FRANKFURT
 DURING LULU
By MERRIMAN SMITH United Press Staff Correspondent)

By MERR1MAN SMITH United Press Staff Correspondent)
 Potsdam, July 25-(UP)- President Truman will fly to Frankfurt tomorrow to con- fer with Gen. Dwight D. Eli senhower and review Amer ican troops during the brief recess in the big three con- ference, it was announced today.
 The big three held a final discussion today after which Prime Minister Churchill to- gether with Foreign Secre- tary Anthony Eden and oppo- sition leader ClemerJ Attlee left by plane for Britain to receive the British election returns tomorrow.
 It was also learned that during Churchill's absence, the three na- tion's foreign secretaries will con- t111ue to confer with Sir Alexander Cadogan, permanent under secre- tary of Foreign Affairs, sitting in for Anthony Eden.
 Americans-Sovie Remain
 Aside from the British delegation members departing for London it was understood that both the Amer ican and Soviet delegations would remain intact until the conference business will continue at all levels except at the top.
 No Americans of any importance have left the Potsdam meeting, nor do any plan to leave it.
 During the recess American and Soviet staffs were expected to catch up on their heavy paper work, in preparation for quick return tc business when the conference re. sumes, presumably on Friday.
 There was nothing official or Premier Stalin and President Tru- mans plans during the recess, but 1t is believed that they will have nc budneSS SeSsions-although the po- sibility of informal chats was not ruled out.
 Censorship Prevail
 On this ninth day of the meeting the strictest secrecy still covered all details of big three discussions and most secret of all was the question of the continued presence of the three nations military and naval chiefs.
 The fact that they're still around indicated that the fields which they cover are still under discussion.
 It was well known that MT. Tru- man came to Potsdam determined that, among many other things, the conference must help to speed the end of the Pacific war.
 However, any details along this line have been closely guarded and responsible quarters discounted ru- mors that the big three would an-

 Wants Action
By EARNEST MOBERECHT


 United Press War Correspondent) Aboard Admiral McCain's Flag ship of Japan, July 25.-(UP)- Fierce aerial battles swirled over western Honshu today as the Japa- ness sent their dwindling air force up to defend the Kure naval base for the second straight day. SwarnlS of American fighter planes launched from the mighty Third Fleet deliberately hunted the enemy planes in an effort to bring them to battle and destroy them.
 Foll0w-up Action
 Their aggressive action covered the main strikes by carrier bomb CTS and torpedo planes on targets already drenched with 1y000-pound bombs during the early part of this record breaking, continuous attack which began at dawn yesterday. Bad weather hampered today's operations, but our planes flew through fog ond storm clouds to search out their targets.
 Most of the dogights took place over fields where American Corsadr fighters had been sent in to strafe grounded Japanese planes.
 MihO Assaulted
 One particularly hot area was around Maho, where the enemy was believed to be hiding his suicide planes.
 Preliminary reports indicate the carrier fighter pilots succeeded in clearing the skies for the punish. ing follow-up blows.
