(Continued from Page One) the most severe since mass aerial warfare started. There was heavy damage and many casualties. The attack on London apparently was designed to harass British nerves, deprive war workers of their sleep and interfere with night shifts in war factories. The alarm sounded at 9:30 p. m. and the “all clear” signal was not sounded until 3:40 a. m. Only a few German planes were over the city at any one time and bombs were reported droppad only in the outskirts. But thousands of Britons lost sleep and early morning workers reported to the factories red-eyed and tired from the long vigil.

war. British Claim 46; Germans Claim 76

London's anti-aireraft guns slammed away at the raiders and unofficial reports said they brought down three. Official bulletins credited them with one. The score in yesterday's air action was set today in London at 46 German planes down and 15 British planes lost. Eleven British pilots were safe.

The raid was London's 7th in three days and 16th of the

Mo.), said he had no further desire to delay a vote, However, three major matters must be disposed of before the vote lis finally taken. One of them is IMr., Clark's amendment which seeks to add to the bill a new section creating a Department of National Defense with undersecretaies for War, Navy and Air Corps. It would be unprecedented for the Senate to approve such a far-reaching measure without first giving 1t committee consideration, but discussion of it probably will occupy some time, This proposal has been favored by Mr. Willkie, ! The Senate will then vote on the Maloney and Taft substitutes. Sen= ator Francis T. Maloney (D. Conn.) would delay the draft until Jan. 1; Senator Robert A. Taft (R. Ohio) would increase the size of the Army jlo 500,000 and would permit ths {Army to train volunteers to a total [of 1,500,000.

planes missing. The British press felt that the air assault on the British had entered its second phase. The Times of London gested that the third phase might be an attempted invasion by sea. Berlin's air raid alarm was shorter than London's. It lasted only 36 minutes from 12:42 a. m. to 1:18 a. m. and it was reported tha. with the exception of possibly one plane the British bombers were turned back near Brandenburg, 38 miles west of the German capital. The German IHigh Command claimed that successful raids were carried out upon airdromes and military bases in Southern England and that the Portsmouth naval base again was heavily bombed. . Other attacks were directed at Plymouth, a Cornwall airdrome, aircraft factories at Coventry and Birmingham and the ports of 1I1ll and Newcastle. Three ships sailing in convoy north of Fraserburgh were hit by bombs, it was claimed.

The report said that the British freighter, Commander, 6901 tons, was being shellad in that region. In Shanghai, American volunteer troops patrolled the Bund area as British troops and Marines sailed to Hongkong. The American position at Shanghai became even more important with the departure of the British from an area desired bv Japan.

Invited to Lunch

Describing the circumstances of the visit of Sir George, Senator

Wheeler said that the British econ- | omist called him on the telephone | for a conference, He invited him to his office for lunch and the two talked from 1 o'clock until nearly 4. That was last Friday. Sir George explained to him, he { sald, that he had been economic adviser to Lloyd George in 1914-15-16. The British economist, onetime journalist, also was member of a British mission to the United States in 1914. The Englishman, according to the Senator, argued that Hitler would attack America if Great Britain was conquered, saving that the first attack would be on Brazil and then other parts of South America. He claimed, Mr. Wheeler said, that he had found strong sentiment for help to Britain in New York and other places in the East and estimated that 60 per cent of Americans, had British heritage and would be favor of entering the war, This, he said, was exclusive of the Irish in the United States. Senator Wheeler said he disputed this claim of war sentiment and told the economist that he would not find such sentiment west of the Alleghenies People are in favor of Great Britain in the war and against Hitler, the Senator said to Sir George, but did not want to go to war.

If it had a deficit during one year it may count that year as zero in computing the average, but [if two years were deficit years, the second deficit must be included as a loss. But in order to make use of the average earnings method a corporation must first pay an additional tax of 4.1 per cent on its regular income subject to normal Federal tax. This means that a company choosing the invested capital method will first pay a normal tax of 209 per cent and then an excess profits tax, while a concern which chooses the average earnings method will pay a 25 per cent normal tax before applying the excess profits levy,
