In the loan section, which Mr..
Pittnlan emphasized must be adj
ministered by local business men,
the Federal government, after
approving a loan, guarantees SO
percent of the loan up to $1,000
with the governments RESPONSE
bility being reduced each time a
payment is made in the amount
of one-haf the payment. The
loans are permitted at an inter-
est rate of four per cent.

United Press Stan Correspondent
 Paris, Aug. 16.--(UP) The fa- nous pilgrimage to Lourdes, city of miracles where saint Bernadette according to Catholic tradition, re- ceived the visitation of the Virgin Mary, win have to be made this year without benefit of organized tours.
 Tn former years g special trains were assigned to carry pilgrims to Lourdes during the summer nonths--hu the French govern ment cannot spare any trains for this purpose under present condi- tlons, and the faithful will have to get to Lourdes as best they can.
 The shepherd girl of Lotlrdes was canonized on Sept. 8, 10SS, but since her death in 1858 the spot where she saw the Virgin Mary has been visited by nearly forty mill lion people, and Lourdes has be- come one of the most famous of meccas for the halt, lame and blind, who hope to be cured of their ills by the miraculous inter- VenClOn or the saint.
 Nasis Stopped Travel
 During the German occupation of France, the pilgrimages were brought to a halt, first, during the Vichy regime, because people from the German zone could not cross the line of demarkation into Vichy, France, and secondly, after the Germans occupied all of France. because Lourdes was too near the Spanish frontier. and the Wehr- macht discouraged travel in that direction as 8 security measure.
 During the German occupation, however, many 'pious French men and women pledged themselves to make the pilgrimage as soon as the country was liberated. Some vowed to go there to give thanks for their deliverance from the Nazis, some to show their grati- tude for the preservation of member of the family made pris- oner by the enemy, some to try the healing effect of the shrine on their war wounds.
 Now they will have to get there on foot, or by bicycle. It is expected that the regularly scheduled trains from Paris, Marseilles and Bor- deaux will be more than ever jammed with pilgrims, but they will receive no special facilities.
 Bernadette Soubirous was a sim pie peasant girl, but her vision transformed Lourdes into perhaps the most international community of the pre-war world. It is unofii- cially estimated that one per cent of the visitors to Lourdes are pil- grins seeking cures, and that of these. 1 l-2 per cent claimed to be cured. The rest of the thousands who hocked there were tourists.
 Many of the priests who went there, with no other common lan- guage, spoke Latin to each other. In 1884, sermons were preached in the town in 27 different languages. Practically continuous services are still held before the Grotto where | the vision was seen, or in the vari- l ous chapels of the hasilica before l the Grotto.

ReOeaI Ships Comprising Third Fleet off Tokyo

Guam, Aug. l6-(UP)-At least lSs American and British warships including nine hattleshfps and % aircraft carriers participated in the Third Fleets final airssea as- sault on Japan during the past month, Admr. Chester w. Nimitz announced today.
 The huge armada, totalling more than 100000 tons of warcraft, was the most powerful ever assembled for g single operation. It still was off the Japanese coast awaiting or- ders to enter the enemy's terri torial waters at last reports. Lone Attacks A lone Japanese "snooperp plane approached the fleet this morning and was chased away by protective carrier planes. Other Japanese planes attacked the warships yes- tcrday and five were shot down.
 Nimitz listed by name 1O5 Amer ican warships, totalling 956,O0O tons and comprising all but handful of the ships launched after Pearl Harbor, and 28, British warships of 5000 tons.
 In addition to the main striking forces, numerous tankers, ammuni- tion ships, escort carriers, destroy CTS, destroyer escorts and miscel- laneous supply ships making up the American and British service fleets participated in the Third Fleets operations, Nimitz said.
 The supply fleets carried oil, gasoline, ammunition, replacement aircraft, spare parts, mail and many other supplies across thou sands of miles to rendezvous at sea with the Third Fleet.
 Without the great contribution of these service forces" Nimitz said, 'it would have been impossi- ble for the United States and Brit ish carrier-plane and bombardment forces to continue their successive and punishing blows on the Jap- anese homeland"
 Nimitz said American submarines also supported the carrier forces with offensive operations, search patrols and rescue actions.
