By DON DOANE

LONDON, April 21.-- up - At
least 800 American planes attack
ed in and around the south German
national redoubt" almost unop-
posed today, dropping bombs in
the area of Munich, Nazi birth
place, and near Befchtesgaden
where Nazism may make Its last
stand.
More than 300 Eighth Air Force
fortresses escorted by 400 Mus
tangs and Thunderbolts brought
the total of bombs dropped on
Munich to 10000 tons, hammering
the already battered railyards
there and at nearby 1ngolstadt and
then bombing and strafing the Jet
plane base at Landsberg 80 miles
to the west.
The Ninth Air Force, striking
from advanced bases, made its
first raid into Austria with an at
tack by one hundred twenty AIS
Invaders on the railyards at Att

What Is Wrong
When pra yer Fails!

Thirty years ago, in Forbidden
Tibet, behind the highest noun
tains in the world, young Eng
Ishman named Edwin J. Dingle
found the answer to this question.
A great mystic opened his eyes.
He realized the strange Power that
knowledge gives.
That Powers he says, can trans
form the life of anyone. Questions,
whatever they are, can be answer
ed. The problems of health, death,
poverty and wrong, can be solved.
In his own case, he was brought
back to splendid health. He acquir-
ed wealth, too, as well as world
wide professional recognition.
Thirty years ago, he was sick as
a man could be and live. Once
his coffin was bought. Years of
almost continuous tropical fevers,
broken bones, near blindness, pri-
walton and danger had made a
human wreck of him., physically
and mentally.
He was about to be sent back to
England to die, when strange
message came - "They are wait
ing fo- you In Tibet" He wants
to tell the whole world what he
learned there. under the guidance
ct the greatest mystic he ever en-.
The Wilmington morning star. [volume] (Wilmington, N.C.) 1909-1990, 1945-04-22

countered during his twenty-one
years in the Far East. He wants
everyone to experience the greater
health and the Power, which there
came to him.
Within ten years, he was able to
retire to this country with a for
tune. He had been honored by
felloWships in the Worlds leading
geographical societies, for his work
as a geographer. And today, 80
years later, he is still so athletic,
capable of SO much work, so young
in appearance, it is hard to believe
he has lived so long.
AS first step in their progress
toward the Power that knowledge
gives, Mr.. Dingle wants to send to
readers of this paper a 9OO-word
treatise. He says the time has
come for it to be released to the
Western World, and offers to send
it, free of cost or obligation, to
sincere readers of this notice. For

tute of metaphysics, 213 South

CHAPEL HILL, April 21.-R)-

of North Carolina.
The one-day conference wa S
sponsored jointly by the institute of
world economics, a non-partisan,
non-frofit organization with head
quarters at Washington. and the

by E. J. Coil, executive director of
the national planning as5ociation,

TOBACCO COUNSEL

RALEIGH, April 21.-(P)-For-

himself a tobacco grower and ac-
tive in assisting growers in their
efforts to obtain more orderly
system of marketing, ras been ap-
pointed general counsel for the
newly organized bright belt to-
bacco Warehousemen's associa-
ton.
Fred S. Register of Henderson,
N. c., president of the association,
announced Broughton's appoint
inent today. The association repre-
sents 343 warehouses in Florida,
Georgia, South and North Caro-
lima. and Virginia.
Meantime, Register said the
board of governors of the associa-
ton had endorsed proposals of
farm groups from the flue-cured
states for 80 cent minimum and
Al cents pound maximum aver
age ceiling price on the Georgia.
Florida belt and a 43 IL cent
minimum and As 1-2 maximum
weighed average on all other belts.
The price differential, Register
said, lies in the fact that the Geor-
gia-Florida tobacco is ungraded
and united; while tobacco through
out the other belts is both tied and
graded.
The minimum and maximum
weighed average ceiling would al
low buyers leeway on floor sales
and would ease the burden of
warehousemen and company buy
ers in maintaining the ceiling,
