WHAT SCIENCE IS DOING *BuUet-Proof' Tire It wai announced a f«w dayi %fo that the British 'bullet-proof tire la In wide use in Normandy. Tht tlr« \t being manufactured Jn Britain and in America, to a Bri- liah design made available to the United States under reverse lend- kasc. It U Bot actually bullet-proof. There is no such thing as a bullet- proof tire, but by reinforcing the walls, providing an inner ring and Strengthening the beading, a flat tire can run for 40 miles before It b completely ruined. The new tire when flat can carry the weight of A yehicle without slipping. The bullet-proof tire was pre- ceded by another British invention which made the difference between â-¼ictory and defeat in North Africa â€" a combination of cross-country and sand tire, which prevented ve- hicles from bogging down in the desert. It was designed on the ca- mel theory; a camel crossing the desert sinks into the sand much less than any other animal. This if due to the fact that the area of a camel's foot is greater in propor- tion to his weight than that of other animals, and also has a specialized •tructure. Bullets Will Make Huns Understand There is sound logic in the state- ment of Ilya Ehrenhurg, one of Russia's foremost authors, that no matter what is happening inside the Reich, Germany's fate will be de- cided on the battlefield by her ene- mies and not at home by her gen- erals. "Hitlerite Germany will be driv- en to her knees not by insurgent officers but by ourselves and our Allies," Ehrenburg wrote in the Moscow press. "We don't trust the Germans, neither the intelligentsia nor the lilly one, neither the blind nor those who have recovered their aiglit. We trust our tanks and bull- ets. Our troops move faster than the conscience of the Fritzies. It k to be expected that the Germans will understand everything when we reach the gates of Berlin." HOT SPOTS, COMING UP RED COMMANDER Gen. Ivan Chcrnyakhov.sky, com- mander of the Third Belorussian Front, led first Red forces into Germany proper when he crossed the border of East Prussia, land of the Junkers estates. East Prussia is threatened with isola- tion by Russian troops smashing to the coast â€" to the south through Warsaw and to the north through Lithuania Where and when hard-driving U. S. naval forces in the Pacific will •trike next is the M4 question Japan's new high command is wrestling with. If they nad only three guesses, they'd probably use them up on the three areas circled above, which are now well within bomber and task force range. THE WAR . WEEK â€" Commentary on Current Events Germany Cannot Win But Allies Must Not Underestimate Enemy The end of the war in Europe can come through hopeless defeat of German armies In the field; It may come through a cracking of home-front support; or through a combination of the two, comments The Christian Science Monitor. We now have abundant evidence that these final processes are work- ing. The American sweep into Brittany and the drive eastward in the direction of Paris appear to be gaining momentum. Some IS German divisions, have been elim- inated since the Allied landings two months ago. Anglo-American cas- ualties approach an almost equal number In terms of men, but where- as It Is a matter of Allied policy and pride to make good replace- ments overnight so that divisions are always at optimum strength, the German replacement problem grrows progressively more acute. As In 1940 The AiTierican break-through in Normandy is comparable to the German penetration at Sedan on May H, 1040. The Germans were able to advance about E5 miles a day, accomplishing supply-line wonders. Paris fell to them in just 80 days. Will the Anglo-.American forces better this record? It is possible, for the local population is on their side; the French Underground is no doubt hampering German move- ments. Moreover, the German de- termination to hold on to the robot- launching areas is likely to lead to further military blunders, which Quiet, Please Here is a delightful story, taken from a recent issue of the Belgian secret paper L'AIouette: A young man called Bebert was called up for compulsory labor service. His uncle, a keeper at a Zoo at Ant- werj), enabled him to go Into hid- ing by disguising him as an orang- outang. One day his mother came to see him. Bebert was delighted, and Jumped about on his trapeze to show how well he had learned his part. Suddenly he fell into the next cage, where two lions were prowl- ing up and down. Bebert's motlier yelled with terror. At first the lions took no notice. Then one of thcin came up to the bars and said: "For goodness sake be quiet, Madame. Do you want to give the whole lot of us away?" Allied leadership seems capable of exploiting. Home Front Shiky That the German home front b ahaky, there can be not the slight- est doubt. The suspicion thrown en the military and the purge of generals is scarcely designed to bolster the Army's morale. The constant bombings and the evident evaporation of the Luftwaffe must be deeply felt by the citirenry. W« see the effects of a relatively few 1,000-pound robots on London, and can picture, in turn, the results of 1,000-plane raids on Berlin. Historians say that it was about the middle of August, 1918. that the Kaiser was informed the Ger- man armies could not win the war. There followed much harried ac- tivity, much talk of secret weap- ons, much rallying of the people to a final all-out effort. But the Allies poured in their su- perior resources, and the end was visible for weeks before Foch sent his word to the German Armistice delegation, "Proceed to the French outposts by way of the Chermay- Forniics-La-Capelle-Guise Road." Hitler and Kaiser Yet as we look back now, the Germans still had remarkable re- cuperative powers, great industrial comeback, immense ingenuity. It was only the policy of the Allies in relentlessly hammering, and wedging into every crack, military and political, that opened, which brought the Germans to surrender In November, 100 days after they had "lost" and reports of a fur- ious counter attack on the road to Paris suggest the Germans still have some unexplored capacities. Hitler, like the Kaiser, has been told he cannot win. He Is reacting as the Kaiser reacted. The Allies must not, however, underestimate the foe any more than Marshal Foch did. This is the time to pour it hotly on, at home as well as in the field. VftVL CHECKED i» a J/ffif •OP Money Sack â- taJnIet<a. Soothes, comforta and quickly calnta IntensQ itching. Hun't suffer.

PiNKHAM'S "'p**' West To Have Best Crop In Years "The West is going to have one of the best general crops it has had in years," said D. C. Coleman, chairman and president of the Can- adian Pacific Railway, on his re- turn to Montreal from an inspec- tion trip over a large section cf the company's Western lines. To Mr. Coleman's eyes the West never looked better. Consistent gains throughout nearly all of the grain-growing districts have brqught both crops and pasture lands to the peak. With plenty of feed, the livestock population is on the increase and cattle and hogs are contributing greater wealth to Western agrarian economy. In some parts of Saskatchewan harvesting already has begun, and while no definite announcements have yet been made, there seems no reason to expect that the qual- ity of the grain will not be well up to standard. Westerners generally are looking toward a very satisfactory year. Marketing conditions for the prod- ^ ucts continue to promise well and the entire financial situation throughout the country is on a sounder footing than it has been for some years. Mr. Coleman said the war had brought an important measure of Industrial progress to several of the Western Provinces and there was reasonable hope that a part of this would continue to function after the war.

Have You Heard? Important "Hams' When war suspended amateur radio activities in 1041 and put "ham" stations off the air, there were some 60,000 amateur opera- tors of both sexes and all ages in the United States; 25,000 of them are now in war service. Two dairies were engaged in t» advertising war. One of the com- panies hired a daredevil racer io drive a car around the town with large placards reading: "This Daredevil Drinks Our Milk." The rival company came out with placards twice as large, reading: "You Don't Have To be A Dare- devil To Drink Our Milk." â€" o â€" An old lad who bore her years remarkably well was asked by a child if she was young- or old.
