Believe me, if my thanking you is accepted, it comqp from the hearts of many thousands that share the same feeling as mine. The United Service Organizations has a club here and it .is the only place in which we may gather to en joy an American-cooked meal. We do miss “Ma’s apple pie” more than any of you realize. And too, the USO is equipped with games, bowling al leys, ping pong, pool tables and a ballroom that boasts the best enter tainment in the AEF. A schedule is provided daily and activity is ever lasting, with the full cooperation of the natives. An army of hostesses has recently volunteered for such work And they total 250 to date. I wish to thank each and. every helping citizOh of Clinton for the Joy you are mak ing possible for the fellows “over here’' who are striving to bring back | to you the one thing we all want— peace. Along with me are two otter fel lows I’m sure you remember, and they both join in sending our best wishes. They are 1st Lt Fred L. Ross and Corporal Epps B. Davis.

WILL BUILD 1,000 BOMBERS FOR RAF MONTHLY ■ London, July 20. — The United States is planning to build 1,000 four-' j motored bombers each month for the RAF, said Sir Charles Bruce-Gardner in the 1942 edition of “Jane’s All th£- (World Aircraft,” authoritative year- book on fighting and civilian planes, published today. Many of the big bombers^ will be' Liberators (Consolidated B-24s) and Flying Fortresses (Boeing B-17s), said Sir Charles, who is chairman of the society of British aircraft con structors. He added that the ideal of “stand ardized Anglo American military air planes embodying the best thought of the two nations" was in sight and that the battle between the Allies and the. Axis for superior combat ceiling for* their warplanes was progressing favorably. New Allied fighters have ^greater firepower, better armor, higher speed and higher'service ceiling,’*, the ex pert asserted. Reviewing the war in the air, the new volume reveals that until Janu ary 1, 1942, the RAF had shot down 8,574 Axis planes with a loss of 3,692 of its own, and that the British fight er command, auxiliary antiaircraft and balloon defenses had accounted for 1,394 Axis aircraft over Britain in 1941. British planes lost over Brit ain iji 1941 numbered 559. The next step in the battle for al titude was seen in descriptions of leading fighter types. 1 Ink, Paste, Carbon Paper, Second Sheets, Ink Pads, Stenographers’ Note Books, Letter Box Files, Type writer Ribbons.
