More and more the feeling here is that the much-talked- of second front will at first be an air front and the successful raids Eng land already has made on several German cities are setting the pattern for an invasion by air capable of paralyzing German war production. How many planes and how many men we have in England to partici pate in such an invasion is of course not revealed, but there is no question ’ be planning that our forces there are gathering 1 country, strength daily. The total number of men now in our armed forces, which has been mostly a matter of guesswork even by those close to the war and navy departments, was revealed by Presi dent Roosevelt as being 4,000,00Q. The President gave out this figure in issuing a statement on the meat shortage, giving the figure to show the great number of men in our forc es which must be fed. This means that we already have more men in the forces than Secre tary of War Stimson set as our goal for 1942—which was 3,600,000. After Mr. Stimson set that goal, however, Columbia, Aug. 11. — Twenty-four traffic deaths in June set a new monthly low for highway fatalities in South Carolina for 1942, State Highway Engineer C. R. McMillan said today. The figure compared with 64 deaths for June of last year. > “Travel figures for June show a 21 per cent decrease from those of June 1941, which does not begin to compare with the 6) per cent de le in traffic fatalities,” McMillan said. Non-collision accidents caused nine of the 24 June deaths. Pedestrian accidents resulted in five deaths, col lisions involving two or more ve hicles accounted for four deaths, col lisions with railroad trains for three, collisions with fixed objects for two SUBSCRIBE TO THE CHRONICLE and collision with a bicycle for one. In spite of general speed reduc tions, 19 per cent of highway viola tions in June were for exceeding speed limits. J WE DO ALL KINDS OP PRINTING CHRONICLE PUBLISHING CO.
