This is the standard size of com-|

Harold Hopper, chief of the WPB motion picture and photographic section, said the motion picture industry would continue to receive film, although producers will be limited to the amounts of film they used last year, and probably even less. No film will be available for commercial advertising pictures under the order. The order provides: 1. Beginning tonight and continuing for 90 days, no person may transfer any unexposed 35 mm. film—except that used for still cameras—without specific WPB ‘Juthorization. 2. Every person, except the army and navy, must keep complete records of all such film on hand and of all sales and shipments for at least two years. 3. Every holder of film except the army and navy must file with the {WPB within 15 days a complete Tecord of the amount in stock. 4. Any person desiring film may file a request with the WPB, stating the amount needed and the use to which it will be put.

Here's the rest of his story in his| own words: . “I was caught next with a loaded bus in a blackout. I didn’t ask the passengers to leave: because it was a tough neighborhood, but was reprimanded by ‘a policeman ‘who promptly had the bus evacuated. “The whole thing was almost too much, but get me straight, I like my job—been with it nine years— so I let it pass. “Next, my throttle broke and, following company . instructions, I turned the crippled bus over to another driver, took the other bus and had to cover two routes with one vehicle. “Some people had to get home by roundabout ways. Well, they grumbled ‘and made cracks. But I was getting pretty fed up, too. “Finally, at another stop, a crowd took the bus by storm and filled it to overflowing, blocking my view. “I told the passengers I could not drive while they blocked my view, but they wouldn't move. I told ’em that I could sit there all night. They said they could, too. “Well, after some more arguing, I took my cap and change carrier and told the passengers another bus would be along in 15 minutes. I also told ’em for all I cared they could go straight to hell. Somme of ‘em said I could too.” “I just decided the bus business could get along without: me.”

FLYING FORTS RETURN SAFELY

Abbeville Attack Second _In Which Our Bombers Suffer ‘No Loss.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20 (U. P.). Military experts, declaring the united nations’ raid on the French coast a highly profitable venture, were extremely- interested today in the role played by the U. S. army's flying fortresses. Their vart was an iileresting side-show to the main action.

During the raid at Dieppe, 23 of the huge bombers raided an airdrome at nearby Abbeville. It was the second action in which flying fortresses participated this week. Some raided Rouen railroad yards Monday night. What impressed the aviation experts most was the fact that in both raids the flying fortresses suffered no losses. That average will not have to be maintdined long until the advantages of high-level, precision attacks such as the flying fortresses can carry out, will become apparent.

Dispute British Claims

The subject is particularly interesting at the moment because of the suggestion by the British press last week-end that the big American bombers were not so suited for night bombing over Germany as the big four-motored British bombers. It is admitted here, that the British. bombers, carrying up: to eight tons of bombs, could outdo on night’ raids the American bombers, whose limit is something over three. tons. But it still is a moot question whether the highflying fortresses, carrying out precision attacks in daylight, cannot

|score as effectively with their lighter

bomb loads as the bigger British bombers operating at night when such accuracy is far more dificult

.| to obtain.

British Vulrierable-

Losses on British night raids have ranged from 3 to 5 per cent of planes employed. British night raiders fly in at levels where they are vulnerable to anti-aircraft fire as well as German night fighters. The flying fortresses, ‘operating at 30,000 feet and above, are less vulnerable to anti-aircraft fire Although enemy fighters can range &8 high as the fortresses. the latter are very fast and run a good chance of moving in, attacking and getting away before interceptors can climb to meet them. f The raid on Dieppe apparently was a laboratory for another new type of ‘warfare—amphibious, mechanized forces. Keen interest was manifest in the fact | that American Gen. Grant tanks—M-3s—were used in the raid. They are substantial fighting machines weighing around 29 tons and grined with 75-mm. guns.

The lessons

Dieppe are now being studied by Britains military heads and will be applied to future assaults leading : “tp the mass invasion of the continent. ity The British have learned that such “landings are feasible and can calculate approximately the losses “they must sustain.

The harbor was useless when I was there, because the British had sunk a boat at the entrance when they left in 1940. . South of Dieppe, Le Harve lay in ruins, the result of German bombs when the British were there and the scorched earth action of the tench \when they retreated, and

harbor was being used principally for small coast-wise shipping. The beach at Le Havre bristled with weapons and 75 mm. guns were fired occasionally at a ‘sunken British transport’ for practice. Across the bay at Deauville, famous summer, resort, the beaches were a tangle of barbed wire.’ I saw these defenses despite strict German orders that no foreign correspondent should “go more than 30 miles from Paris. The military observer of a then ‘|neutral country who was with me said the defenses wefe far from impregnable. Air Superiority Necessary “They can be blasted into the sea by masses of planes attacking from low levels so as to hit directly the guns embedded in the hillsides,” he said. 3 But simultaneously, he said, there would have to be air attacks on the numerous airdromes built all over France, Holland and Belgium to ground the German air force. “It would be foolish to try. any kind of invasion without overwhelming air superiority,” he said. “With that it would : be successful and losses in men and. material would not be as heavy.”
