(UP)—The Army’s new tank destroyer—the M-18— is regarded by the Army Ordnance Department officials lere as “the hottest thing in today’s armored warfare.” Capt. Charles R. Adkins, Columbus Grove. O., an Army auto-

motive expert of 16 years’ experience, who saw the M-18 in operation in France, said the vehicle “is a streamlined speed demon that put a streak of lightning in our drive across France

into Germany.”

The M-18, he said, has a mechanical system which permits complete installation of new engine in less than two hours. Capt. Adkins asserted that the *ank destroyer’s 10 bogey wheels operate independently, “thus one broken wheel will not incapacitate the vehicle, which mounts a

76-mm. cannon.”

500 MILLION RED POINTS—ALL FAKE! CHICAGO. Jan. 25.—A cache of 50 million bogus red ration coupons — that’s 500.000.000 points, enough to buy 41.666,66*) pounds of choice steaks—was seized by U. S. marshals and OPA agents yesterday in a raid on the home of Guy Polito at 707 S. Ada St. The agents arrested Polito, 55. his wife, Nellie, 42. and their two sons, James, 23, and Guy, Jr., 10. Joseph, 12. was not taken into custody. Ignoring Polito’s protest that his wife and sons had nothing to do with the coupons, Federal Commissioner Walker placed all four members of the family under $25,000 bond each on u charge of possessing counterfeit stamps. He continued the hearing to Feb. 1. Rae Walters, regional OPA director, said that seizure of the Politos has prevented wholesale flooding of the city with counterfeit stamps in such a volume that rationing controls would have been seriously threatened. Even with th< so arrests the source of the stamp supply remains undiscovered. Federal operatives have been shadowing Polito and his family for several weeks on a tip that he was an agent for a ring of nig-time counterfeiters. A warrant to search Polito’s six-room apartment was issued after midnight by Commissioner Walker. Eight agents participated in the raid and found the stamps in eight large shopping bags in a rear bedioorn. In addition, agents found counterfeit gasoline coupons good for 5,000 gallons and 71 $100 bills in Chinese currency, Polito, an alien, faces d'-porta* tion, as well as a penalty of from one to ten years in prison if convicted. FBI agents said the arrests are the first to be made in the nation for possession of faked red points Counterfeiters have dealt almost exclusively in spurious gasoline coupons.
