ments, had been seeking for| the last 10 days to obtain]
agreement of all the states. An appeal for approval of the| standards was sent to the 48 governors following a meeting of the executive committee of the council May 20. Shipments Often Delayed
At that time the states were advised that unless they complied within 10 days the president would issue an executive order on the matter. Uniform truck traffic regulations became imperative because truck shipments of huge cargoes of war materials over state lines frequently were delayed. On some occasions they failed to make connections at seaports where ships were loading for overseas transit of vital war cargoes, navy spokesmen said. In announcing the agreement, Mr. Jones said it represented “an outstanding example of what a united nation can do in an emergency, and is eloquent testimony to the spirit of the American people in their determination to let nothing interfere with America's drive for victory.” Effective at Once
The standards become effective immediately and in most cases were put into effect by governors’ proclamations. One third of the states had stricter requirements than the new universal standards.

, June 2 (U. P.).—All 48 states have agreed to uniform standards and reciprocal license arrangements for motor transport for the duration of the war, Secretary of Commerce Jesse Jones announced yesterday.

ASSAILS TWO IN RUBBER DISPUTE
Rep. Curtis Says Nelson And Jones Block Use of
Farm Commodities.
WASHINGTON, June 2 (U. P.).— Rep. Carl T. Curtis (R. Neb.) today charged War Production Chief Donald Nelson and Secretary of Commerce Jesse Jones with “flatly and defiantly” refusing to permit the use of farm commodities in producing synthetic rubber.
Rep. Curtis appeared before a senate agriculture subcommittee,
headed by Senator Guy M. Gillette

ON SERVICE PAY
Leaders in Congress Ready
To Accept $50 Base If He Approves.
WASHINGTON, June 2 (U. P.).— Congressional leaders today are trying to learn how President Roosevelt stands on the pending bill to increase the pay of men in the arm services. A senate-house conference committee appears to be deadlocked over whether to raise the base pay of buck privates and apprentice seamen to $42 a month or to $50 a month. The president's views probably will determine the outcome. Congressional leaders said they

Iowa), which is studying the production of industrial alochol and synthetic rubber. “Even though it has been proven that the shortest, quickest and best route to synthetic rubber is by way of alcohol made from farm crops, yet the secretary of commerce, Jesse Jones, and the war production board flatly and defiantly refused to budge one inch to make that a reality,” he asserted.
Pictures People as Angry
“Therefore, I issue a direct challenge to Donald Nelson, head of the WPB, and Jesse Jones, head of the RFC, to release and make available sufficient steel, copper and other materials for the construction and equipment of at least one alcohol and rubber plant.” Mr. Curtis told the subcommittee that “while all this inaction is taking place on the part of the WPB, transportation and businesses continue to break down, and the need for rubber for military purposes becomes greater, and the situation be-

Aside from the damage, Britain and United States can do in mass raids, morale will be the big factor. The Germans have not taken bombing well. They were disgusted when British planes first attacked because they had been promised immunity.
People Shiver With Fear
In Berlin it was always easy to tell when there had been an air raid. Residents fell asleep in the subways and passed their stations. Waitresses, waiters, shop clerks were irritable, as was everybody else. Unquestionably war industry was slowed. Berliners used to say it was easy to tell what sort of a night a man

The Germans have been particularly dreading American planes. Last fall, when Britain first used its own four-motored bombers, the Germans began talking about American flying fortresses. They have great respect for the United States air force, and for America's industrial potentialities. The German air ministry tried to deprecate the flying fortresses. It said they were cumbersome. Ordinary Germans thought of the size and number of bombs they drop. For months the Germans worked on a special bombing plane for use against flying fortresses and planes of their type.

Germans hear by word of mouth about the big British raids. Though I was interned, I heard that after the bombing of Rostock, 69,000 of the city's 75,000 people were evacuated. The stories of those raids sent a shiver through Germans— and now comes Cologne.
Great Loss to Prestige
The damage to the prestige of the German air force among the German people has been great. Germans repeat the promise that Field Marshal Hermann Goering made them, that if any enemy plane ever reached Berlin he would take off his coat and go to work. “He's down to his underclothes now,” they say. Word has got round that even though many anti-aircraft guns and their crews were taken to the eastern front, the air defense crews as well as the air force itself have taken a terrific beating. The mor- | tality among gun crews it reported to be frightfully high. Though it must be emphasized that the persistent British raids before America’s entry into the war

did not materially affect German war industry, they were effective. Though many question the value of small scale raids, they seemed to be worth while because of the effect on morale.
Admire Nerve of R. A. F.
One daylight stratosphere raid caused special anxiety to officials. Planes flew in at more than 30,000 feet and could hardly be detected. Counter-attack was futile. Germans were jittery even in those days of small scale raids. Two youths, flying at an unauthorized height over a northern town in the Stettin area, were forced to make an emergency landing because of fog. Their planes caused an air raid alarm. The youths, walked to town and were ordered off the streets into shelter. Though they protested that they themselves had caused the alarm, they were kept under cover along with everybody else for hours. British fliers have the respect and to an extent the sympathy of many Germans who admire them for their nerve in making the long flight to Germany and staying over a city to bomb while their fuel runs low They call the British too brave, and say also they are too inexperienced.
U. S. ARMS POUR INTO TURK PORTS
Germany Also Joins Race To Supply Arms for
Nation.
ANKARA, Turkey, June 2 (U.P), —The race to supply Turkey with arms, munitions and other supplies was intensified today with simultaneous announcement of the arrival of “considerable” quantities of American lend-lease material and departure of a Turkish delegation for Berlin to inspect armament factories. The United States cargo ships which arrived in Turkish ports in the last few weeks were said to be the first vessels from that nation to dock here in more than two years. Departure of the five-man commission to Berlin was interpreted here as indicating German concern over the possible political effect of the mounting allied delivery of arms to Turkey. Exact Status in Doubt (Exact status of the delegation was in doubt. Berlin Radio yesterday broadcast that a new trade agreement, apart from all previous such pacts and involving exchange: of 200,000,000 marks—about $80,000,000—worth of supplies vital to both nations, had been signed by German and Turkish representatives, (The British Broadcasting Co., in an announcement heard in New York by Columbia Broadcasting
