In his opinion, the Marauder B-26 bomber is “the finest combat bomber ever built.” His crew flew two ships, the American Eagle and the Miss Manchester. The day of a raid on Naples, another crew borrowed the American Eagle and the ship was shot in two, killing everyone aboard, Sgt. Beldon reported.

WASHINGTON, March 2. (U. P).—A detachment of marines entertained a group of natives on Kwajalein atoll in the Marshalls by singing “Pistol Packin’ Mamma.” 3 The natives, according to a dispatch from Sgt. Gilbert P. Bailey of Delphi, Ind, a marine corps combat correspondent, countered with “Rock of Ages.” Then one of the natives produced a hymn book, and “The Rifle Packin’” marines and the hymnal totin’ natives got together on—"Onward, Christian Soldiers.”

Wartime tension also may have*had something to do with it, the department said. A breakdown showed the greatest consumption increases were in distilled spirits. Beer, which represented nearly two-thirds of 1934 expenditures, accounted for little more than 40 per cent last year,
