Mr. Ewing paused in his opening address to the jury to ask Judge Baltzell to permit the deletion of certain allegedly false statements made by Mr. Pelley which were contained in the first nine counts of the indictment against him.

In & limited way, it is opening up the second front for which Russia is pleading. : But a real second front Is needed. ; .

‘There Are 31 Key Cities

THIRTY-ONE key cities constitute the heart of industrial Germany. They are situated in a’ western industrial center about 300 miles from London, a central Zone about 600 miles from London, and an eastern center about 800 miles from London, all within reach of new-type American and British bombers now piling off the production lines. In the wastern zone are Essen, Cologne, Duesseldorf, Frankfurt, Mannheim, Stuttgart, Saarbrucken, Friedrichshaven, Bremen, Hannover, Kassel, Nuremburg, Augsberg, Munich and Rosenheim. In the central zone are Hamburg, Magdeburg, Dessau, Halle, Leipzig, Chemnitz, Pilsen, Linz. In the east are Kiel, Rostock, Stettin, Berlin, Posen, Lodz, Liegnitz and Breslau. All these places have been combed, and many times, by the British Bomber comimand, with damage and destruction to war ‘plants of all sorts. But, until the recent mass raids, they had been

This: he followed by raids over Cologne and Essen, with 1000 planes; over Emden for three nights with 300 planes; over Bremen one night with 1000 bombers, followed by three other raids over that important city with 300 planes each, two and three nights apart.

Cologne Shows Result

COLOGNE showed what this cloudburst of steel, if kept up, can mean. Three hundred acres in the very heart of the city devasted: Two hundred and fifty factories and workshops damaged or destroyed! The effect on Germany’s war program may be seen in the types of plants hit—synthetic rubber, metal, machine shops, sheet iron, electric magnets, repair shops for electric engines, blast furnaces, chemicals, foundries, paints, rubber tires, - machine-tool shops, railway cars and submarines. A large part of Cologne's population decamped. The British have concentrated on Germany's synthetic-o0il plants, so vital to her air and armored forces, and on the plants in Hamburg, Bremen, Hannover and the Rhineland which refine the crude oil she produces in the amount of about Her output of synthetic oil is about 3,500,000 tons yearly.

where about half of the engines for U-boats are made. This tied up that plant, and the effects may show up later in the Battle of the Atlantic. Serious damage to the Dornier works at Weimar, which sharply reduced bomber production, may have had some effect in slowing down bombing raids on England. ” #” ”

Rostock Closed Down

DECISIVE IN its effects also was the raid on Rostock, which caused a complete evacuation of the industrial population of that ‘city. All factories were closed for an indefinite period, including one piant that was turning out 25 airplanes a week. ; The British have struck hard and often, too, at power stations ahd gasworks. Germany has for years suffered from a shortage of

Yet all this array was powerless to avert the destruction of Cologne. To point the way for a joint bombing offensive, the British bomber command is fully equipped to make every raid count. It has amassed a wealth of detailed information about every industrial center in Germany, down to the minutest item, on the basis of reports from underground sources all over Germany. Ail this information has been turned over to the army air forces. When Air Marshal Harris wants to plot a raid, he can get complete information about the objective. During the months after the subjugation of Poland, when Europe sat waiting for Hitler. to strike, British patrol planes scaured Germany making photographs - of every industrial city. These are now most useful in conjunction with the data gathered from underground. There is no mystery when the British bomber command heads out over the channel, bound for Germany. , The crews know exactly where they are going, and what they are going to hit when they get there. : TOMORROW: The Time to Strike Is Now.
