To the British people the Soviet CANADIAN SHIP BAGS U-BOAT IN MID-ATLANTIC Frigate Prince Rupert Nabs Fourth Undersea Raider Sunk by Dominion Navy in Ten Weeks \u2014 14 Prisoners Taken.Ottawa, June 13.\u2014 (® \u2014 Fourth U-boat victim of the hardhitting Canadian Navy in ten weeks was announced today by Navy Minister Macdonald when he disclosed a recent action in mid-Atlantic in which, the spanking new frigate Prince Rupert nabbed an undersea raider and brought back fourteen prisoners as proof.Prisoners were also taken in the three previously announced successes.It was announced on April 4 that the frigate Waskesiu got a U-boat; on May 31 that the corvette Chilliwack got one and on June 6 that the destroyer St.Laurent scored.As in previous actions, the Canadian frigate was aided in the hunt by other units.This fourth successful action against U-boats in a short space of time indicated the Germans were making a desperate, attempt to hamper the North Atlantic supply line but the growing concentration of Allied sea and air power has kept the raiders on the run.This growth in power is chiefly Canadian, for .he R.C.N.does about 45 per cent of the convoy escort work with the remainder divided between the Royal.Navy and the United States Navy.No merchant ship losses on the North Atlantic have been announced for a long period, but announcement of the torpedoing and sinking of the frigate Valleyfield was made last month.It was nearly a year before that the last Canadian escort\u2014the destroyer Ste.Croix\u2014was sunk on that tough route.First spotted and damaged by a Wellington bomber, the latest Nazi victim was finished off by a withering barrage from Prince Rupert's guns after it had been blasted to the surface by depth charges.Two United States ships, a destroyer and a destroyer escort and a Grumman Avenger plane from an American aircraft carrier shared in the kill.Only six seconds after the submarine broke surface, Prince Rupert\u2019s youthful gun crews were plastering it with high-explosives and quick-firing oerlikon shells.The oerlikons\u2019 deadly cross-fire prevented the Germans from making any attempt to man their deck guns, while shells from the frigate's four-inch guns smattered the U-boat\u2019s conning tower and ripped a dozen holes in its hull.The battered submarine sank, stern first, with its survivors plunging into the water.Of the Prince Rupert's prisoners, two were officers, one 23 years old and the other 20.Other survivors were rescued by the American ships.\u201cThis was an excellent example of combined operations,\u201d Mr.Macdonald commented, \u201cnot only between the sea and air power, but between ships of the Canadian and the United States navies,\u201d Relief To Liberated Countries And Mutual Aid Causes Commons Debate By D\u2019ARCY O\u2019DONNELL Ottawa, June 13.\u2014((?;\u2014The provision of relief to the peoples .of liberated countries, the supplying of mutual aid to the United Nations, and the sale of surplus or obsolete war materials set off a variety of debate in the Commons yesterday.Finance Minister Ilsley announced that Canada proposes to contribute $77,000,000 this year to the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration, set up to provide lelief for countries liberated from the enemy.The amount, representing a little i-.ore than one per cent of Canada\u2019s national income, would be paid out of the $800,000,000 Canada proposed I to spend this year in mutual aid.| The bill was given firrt reading, : and in scheduled to receive second [reading today.! Earlier, Munitions Minister Howe 1 announced that Canada\u2019s mutual aid ! expenditures during the ten months ! March 31st, totalled $912,603,220.| Major beneficiary was the United I Kingdom which received aid to the I extent of $723,753,786.Next in line j were Russia, with $23,282,292, China 'with $1,101,587, West Indies with ! $874,478 and India with $482,192.Expenditures for war supplies to ! be transferred to recipient countries | in the future amount to $139,123,-j563, and the balance of the total ex-Ipenditure, $25,472, went to administration costs.| Before the House settled down to : the study of Government legislation, ! Defence Minister Ralston revealed that Canadian casualties in France ihave ao far been \u201cmoderate.\u201d Prime 'Minister Mackenzie King said it was hoped the budget will be brought down \u201cshortly.\u201d The Prime Minister said it could not yet be stated when the proposed Dominion-Provincial conference will be geld.Postmaster General Mulock announced that effective June 19th a new system will go into effect for sending of cigarettes to the armed forces in Italy.Under the new system, cigarettes will be ordered as at present, but addressed labels will be air mailed to Italy where they will be affixed to cigarettes drawn from a large reserve, built up by bulk shipments.They will then be sen: on to the addresses.Mr.Ilsley said th?re had been some delay in completing arrangements for mutual aid to all the recipient countries, and the figure-for shipments up to March 31st were not representative of the proportions in which supplies now were moving to the various countries.Mutual aid shipments to the French Committee of National Liberation did not begin until last March 31st.During the past year, all the countries receiving mutual aid, with the possible exception of China, bought war supplies in Canada, and some of the purchases were substan.tial, Mr.Ilsley said.It was possible that some of the United Nations would apply for the first time this year for mutual aid.Mr.Howe said the usual procedure in granting mutual aid to a nation was for that nation to make a request through the Department of External Affairs.The application was passed on to the Mutual Aid Board which investigated the possibility of supplying the required goods, the ability or inability of the applicant to provide Canadian dob By GLADWIN HILL Associated Press War Correspondent London, June 13.-\t(A3) \u2014Several hundred heavy bombers again pounded German airdromes behind the battle lines in France today as medium bombers stuck at targets from the beachhead to far inland.The German Radio indicated Allied daylight raiders were striking into the Reich from bases in Britain and Italy following a night attack by more than 1,000 R.A.F.and R.C.A.F.bombers against German transport facilities and the synthetic c.il manufacturing centre of Gelsenkirchen in the Ruhr._ The giant bombers, escorted by fi.hte.'s, rained explosives on airdromes at Evreux-Fauville and Reux-Ulieres-L\u2019Eveque.Clear weather made possible visual bombing.The assaults followed up yesterday\u2019s attack by up to 1,400 American heavy bombers against 16 airfields.Ber'in said Italy-based bombers st.uck at Munich.The mediums attacked railroads, fuel dumps and other targets in close-up support of the beachhead forces.In a series of broadcasts, the Berlin Radio told of heavy air battles raging over the whole invasion area and said Allied planes surging over the Alp, had penetrateo to Bavaria and Franconia.Other daylight raiders were reported in small numbers over Western and Northern Germany.Following up yesterday\u2019s record assault by 1,400 American heavy bombers, the R.A.F.-R.C.A.F.force included in the overnight targets bridges near Caen, centre of some of the heaviest fighting in the Allied invasion drive, and Cologne in Western Germany \u2014 an important railway hub.The Luftwaffe, evidently trying to save face after its weak showing in Normandy, sent a few planes over Southern and Eastern England, and got one lone plane through to London for the first time since April 27th.The campaign against German transport, which reached a new peak yesterday, went on through the night virtually unabated at the hands é of heavies, mediums and Mosquitos, and expanded Eastward into the Lowlands.Railroad centres at Arras, Amiens and Carmbrai\u2014key points on the route from Flanders to Normandy \u2014and Poitiers, France, as well as bridges near Caen, were bombed.Mediums augmented the assault with a blow at the great Panzer marshalling area in the Forest de Grimbosq, Southwest of Caen, dropping 159 tons on German armored concentrations in a few minutes with great devastation.They also hit the railroad centre at Mezidon, and ferry installations over the Seine at Caudebec, in a continuation of the campaigns against ferries, apparently calculated to prevent the Nazis from staging a successful \u201cDunkerque\u201d if Allied forces succeed in trapping them.Twenty-three heavy bombers\u2014including 15 Canadian craft\u2014were I lost in overnight attacks on railroad | centres in France and 17 more in i the attacks on Cologne and Gel i Enkirchen.Four of the medium bombers and fighter-bombers participating in the attacks on German communication lines were shot down.Ten Gei-man ships fell to the Allies\u2014six to Canadian marksmen.Three of these were shot down by Canadians in assaults on French railyards and another three were downed by R.C.A.F.beachhead Mosquito patrols.One of the German raiders over Britain was shot down.Mosquito bombers that raced back and forth behind the German lines are intensifying the disruption of transport, which SHAEF disclosed last night had been crippled extensively since the D-Day buildup began.At one railroad station where German troops were disembarking from I a train a pilot reported \u201cwe bombed, ; then went down to the deck to shoot up the station with our cannon.\u201d After shooting up a train South j oh Caen, another Mosquito pilot came upon a large German camp in the woods which already had been under attack and was burning.About 30 huts were still standing.Typical of chaos Allied support-operations are visiting upon the Germans was the coup of rocket-carrying Typhoons.They swooped down, shot up an ammunition truck | which crashed into a military build-ling and blew it sky-high, A second (truck, burning fiercely, plunged into |a quarry.j The Gelsenkirchen raid marked I the first return of heavy bombers to ; strategic targets since the invasion, i The bombing was reported highly j concentrated with several \u201ctremen-jdous\u201d explosions and great fires j started and smoke towering more \u2018than three miles as the fliers left.Churchill Sets Foot In France Continued on page 2.col.5.Continued on page 2, col.5.Continued on page 2, cob 4.WAR BULLETINS Dover, England\u2014The skies over the Channel were overcast today and

presumably accounted for a declaration of a state of emergency at Svendborg, announced officially by the Swedish News Agency Tidningarnas Telegram-1 byra last night.PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH HOLDS 70TH ASSEMBLY Toronto, June 13.\u2014 ((P)\u2014The 70th General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in Canada today continued discussion of reports on the past year's activities, Last night delegates beard three chaplains to Canada\u2019s armed services and Col.B.O.Hooper, First Great War veteran, in a special \u201cWar Chaplaincy Night\u201d programme.Hon.Capt.J.Y.F raser of Toronto, recently returned from four yea\"s Overseas as chaplain to the lorces and recently with the Canadians in Italy, said Canadian servicemen Overseas are looking for leadership from the church in the poet-war years.The men \u201call have but one picture in their mind\u2019s eye\u2014their home and loved ones,\u201d he said.Hon.Lt.-Col.C.K.Nicoll, former Moderator of the Toronto Presbytery and one of the first to join the Chaplaincy Service, told of bombings Overseas and Hon.Group Capt.John McNab, chaplain to the R.C.A.F., said the \u201cboys over there are constantly thinking of home and wondering what sort of a Canada we are going to have in the post-war days.\u201d Col.Hooper said a chaplain \u201cis a specialist in an unusual way and doee a job that no one else can do in maintaining the morale of men.\u201d The Assembly yesterday deferred consideration of a report from a special committee named to consider the $500,600 foundation fund, which now totals $181,000 and also announced refusal to accept the resignation of Rev.J.W.McNamara of Toronto, clerk of the Assembly since 1925.A resolution was endorsed urging \u201ca united Christian front for abolition of women's beverage rooms.\u201d The new Moderator, Rev.A.C.Stewart, of Midland, Ont., named a committee of six to confer with the Foundation Fund Committee on the advisability of continuing the campaign for $500,000 launched a year ago.NAZIS TO FREE MANY (FRENCH PRISONERS London, June 13.\u2014®\u2014The Gcr-I man-controlled Paris Radio declared 1 today that \u201cbecause of the exeni- , plary attitude of trie

Fight.Supreme Headquarters, Allied Expeditionary Force, June 13.\u2014ff) \u2014 Prime Minister Churchill set i foot on French soil for the first time since 1940, yesterday, He was accompanied by Field i Marshal Smuts, Prime Minister of South Africa, and Gen, Sir Alan.Brooke, Chief of the Imperial General Staff.Mr, Churchill and his companions crossed the Channel on the destroyer H.M.S.Kelvin.While they were aboard the ship joined in bombarding a German position on the Northeastern Normandy flank.Arriving on the beaches shortly before noon, they spent three hours ashore; lunched with Gen.Montgomery, Commander-in-Chief of Allied ground forces in France; visited army headquarters; watched troops and supplies land and then steamed through the battle fleet which was bombarding the shore.During the day the Prime Minister witnessed an aerial dogfight and saw a German raider shot down.In visiting the beachhead, the persistent, Churchill had his own way.Admiral Ramsay, naval commander-in-chief, disclosed last week that the Prime Minister had wanted to go along on D-Day, and \u201cit took a great deal of persuasion\u201d to leave him behind.In tiie House of Commons lash week Mr.Churchill refused to give assurance that ha would not visit Normandy.His last visit to France was on June 13, 1940.This was his ninth overseas trip since he became Prime Minister.Gen.Eisenhower, Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Invasion Forces, led a party of top American military and naval commanders on a tour of the American-held section of the front.In Eisenhower\u2019s party were Gen.Marshall, United States Army Chief of Staff; Gen.Henry Arnold, United States Air Chief; Admiral Ernest King, Commander-in-Chief of the United States Fleet, and Lt.-Gen.Omar N.Bradley, Commander of American ground forces in France.Mr.Churchill has made several visits to the various theatres of war but today\u2019s visit to the front lines was the most dramatic.Continued on page 2, col.1.Germans Fight Bitterly Along New Line Of Defence Near Lake Bolsena By SID FEDER, Associated Press War Correspondent Rome, June 13.\u2014UP)\u2014The Germans North of Rome fought bitterly today along a now line of defences from Lake Bolsena to the sea but 5th Army troops smashed through and occupied nearly all the Western shorois of the lake and all hut wiped out a strong point East of Orbetello, 71 miles Northwest of Rome.Moving up both sides of Lake Bolsena, Allied forces on the Western shore captured Calentano, junction of three highways some 55 miles North of Rome and pushed on, nearing I^tera, four miles further North, Northwest of the lake, South African forces moving toward Or-vieto ran into a stiff battle in Bagno Regio.On the Tyrrhenian Coaet American troops encountered a new series of dug-in defences East of Or-bntello and attacked through high ground directly toward lateral hign-way 74, which is about 90 road miles from Rome at that point.In a sharp and bloody engagement they captured 142 prisoners from the German 162nd Turcoman division and killed 100 more of tire enemy.The advance was considerably more rapid on the Adriatic sector, where 8th Army troops crossed the Saline River, some five miles North of captured Pescara, at several places, These Allied forces took Popoli, on the Rome-Pescara Road 10 miles North of Sulmona, where the advance had halted only long enough to take 20 prisoners.South of Terni, in the centre of the advance line, the enemy continued to put up a fight but some progress was made there also.The 8th Army forces in the Tiber Valley advanced to the Southwest of Carsoli, reaching high ground across Highway No.5 and taking a number of villages.It was announced by the Allied Naval Command that a party was established at Civitavecchia June 9 to begin restoring the facilities which had been heavily battered by Allied bombings and enemy demolitions.Many mines have been swept up from the coast from Anzio Northward.Last night R.A.F, bombers swept over Hungary and attacked the Almas-Fuzito oil refineries near komarom, Northeast of Budapest, starting large fires.Yesterday tactical aircraft hammered transport and other targetti in the battle area and further North to impede the German withdrawal.The Mediterranean Air Forces flew about 1,100 sorties in all. ¦ 2.SHERBROOKE DAILY RECORD TUESDAY, JUNE 13, 1944.FACTORIES ARE RAISED ALONG INVASION COAST Allies Transport London Industries Across Channel in 100-Lb.Crates for Supply Sources for Allied Invasion Forces.Baltimore, June 13.\u2014{ÎP)\u2014London factories, broken down into numbered parts and pacged into crates, are begininng to move across the Channel to be set up behind the lines, Thomas O\u2019Neill, of the Sunpapers London bureau, said in a dispatch to the Baltimore Evening Sun yesterday.Unpacked and assembled, they are expected to furnish a close-up supply to Allied troops fighting their way into France, the cable dispatch reported, and will take a load off the trans-Channel transport, as well as make available services thus far unavailable to troops.In some of the packing cases are complete repair factories for heavy duty equipment, the Sun correspondent continued.Others hold the components of laboratories for manufacturing acetylene gas for the engineers tyid oxygen for the doctors.Still others will blossom into laundries and baths, installations apt to find high favor with the fighting men.Numbered parts for these installations started going into packing cases last August to be ready whenever the signal might be given.None of the boxes weighs more than 100 pounds, because they must be moved by hand until the Allies capture a port and get it in working order, the dispatch said.Germans Report Continued from Page 1.Churchill Sets Continued from Page 1.At exactly 12:30 p.m.a grey-green \u2022\u2018duck\u2019\u2019 (amphibious craft) slowly climbed up the yellow

gratifying assurance .rom General Montgomery that \u201cthe Allied armies have secured a firm and good lodgment on the mainland of France.\u201d We must not assume from this that the Allies have passed the danger mark.The peak of the battle will come when Rommel throws in the main body of his armored strategical reserves for an all-out counter-attack.We should save our celebration until that assault has been dealt with since it can be a nasty affair.However, Rommel himself is in a mighty tight corner.His problem is not that of dealing with the Cherbourg Peninsula alone, but of guarding the entire coastline of Western Europe and Southern France.If he sends great strength against the peninsula, he lays himself open to Allied amphibious invasions at numerous other strategic points.He might handle one, hut he cannot deal with all of them satisfactorily at the same time.Still, he has no alternative but to defend the peninsula to the best of his ability.This great battle is one of the THE LIFE INSURANCE CAMPAIGN Perhaps the oldest institutional advertising programme to be carried out in the Dominion, that conducted in the newspapers of Canada by the Canadian Life Insurance Officers Association, enters ! its twenty-fifth year with a programme as wide as I any it has carried on in the past.These institutional j campaigns are designed to advance the interests of j an industry or commerce as a whole rather than promote the wares of a particular company.The campaign conducted during the year just : closed not only sought to impress upon the public the value of a life insurance policy itself, but explained the many ramifications of the insurance ] companies and the important place which their funds | have in the economic life of the country, In addition they helped in Victory Loan campaigns, War Savings Stamp drives and other public causes.The renewal of the campaign for another year , is a mark of confidence by these leaders of the economic life of Canada in the efficacy of the message of the printed word in the daily press of Canada.MR.POULIOT\u2019S TEARS St.Thomas Times-Journal In the House of Commons on Tuesday evening Jean-Francois Pouliot, the member for Temiscouata, Quebec, wept over the sufferings of the children in France and other occupied countries for lack of food, and charged, in effect, that it was unfair to send Canadian food to British children and not send food to the others.Mr.Pouliot\u2019s sentiment does more credit to his heart than to his head, and if he could have offered a cast-iron scheme for supplying food to the people in the occupied countries which would go to the natives without the Germans taking any of it, or a corresponding amount of the food grown in these countries and transporting it to Germany, the Canadian and other governments would have been glad to carry it out, It is true that some food is being sent to Greece and is distributed by the Red Cross, but it is only a drop in the bucket and people are still dying there of starvation.But we would point out to Mr.Pouliot a way in which he could help the situation of the children and all other suffering people in these lands.He is one of the outstanding members of Quebec Province, and what he says would go a long way toward influencing his fellow members.The best way to bring relief to them is for the Allies to defeat Germany as speedily as possible.The supreme effort is being made now and the Dominion of Canada forces are playing a big part.But no thanks to Mr.Pouliot for that.He has been one of the most implacable members vho has opposed the sending of a Canadian army overseas, maintaining that we have no business to ask Canadians to fight against the Germans in the only place where we can get at them, but keep all our men at home to repel the Germans if and when they reach our shores.And he knows quite well that thanks chiefly to the British navy the Germans will never reach Canada at all.Mr.Pouliot\u2019s tears fall a little IMe in the day.He should have shed them in vexation at the decision of the Quebec people when they voted not to give Prime Minister King an immediate mandate to conscript men from every province for overseas service.But that, of cour c, he could not do because it was exactly what he advised them to do.The only tears he might have shod then would have been tears of joy.PREMIER GEORGE A.DREW St.Thomas Times-Journal In the Ontario general election of last summer The Times-Journal in furtherance of what it considered its duty as an independent newspaper chose to give its editorial support to Colonel George A.Drew and the Progressive Conservative party.The morning after the voting, which resulted in the return Col.Drew, this office had a call from former Premier Hepburn, who had been re-elected for Elgin as an Independent Liberal.Said Mr.Hepburn then, among other things: \"I was much pleased the The Times-Journal came out in support of Mr.I .ew.\u201d Which was a nice thing to sa .and stamped the ex-Premier as a man of independent thought when tlu.occasion called for it.Those who heard Premier Drew\u2019s masterly address at the Elgin (Motor Club dinner here will also agree, we think, that the people of Ontario made a wise choice in elevating him to high office.They must have felt, as did the writer, that here is .man possessing in fine measure the qualifications needed in the halls of legislation in Canada.It must have thrilled many of his hearers also when they recalled that Premier Drew had the unusual honor to be asked to address a joint session of the House of Commons and House of Lords in London recently.And they realized that he must have acquitted himself with credit then and gave Canadians reason to feel proud of him.We look for Col.George A.Drew to go far as an Empire statesman.is a commandable pastime so long as it is kept within Plimsoll Lines, and for those who can\u2019t keep it that way it takes certain measures.One of these is to pass out tracts with each bottle of liquor at purchase; the tracts pointing out the evils of drink in less severe and j more reasonable tones than we in , Canada are used to hearing.And ! for offenders, who don\u2019t heed the advice of these tracts and similar : mild pieces of propaganda, and pro-1 ceed to get more than decently ! steeped, there is an equally mild ; reprimand.Not a jail sentence or' fine, but a photo of the miscreant in ; his fuddled state posted in his place ! of work where all may see and ; sneer.It is said to work.Not being Russian, we can't say why.SO THEY SAY THE SAME OLD BOURASSA Ottawa Journal Henri Bourassa\u2019s hatred of Britain and everything British lives on in his old age.The other night he said to a Bloc Populaire rally: \u201cWhen they speak of a crusade for Christianity I cannot forget that our first co-operation with British imperialism contributed at the end of the last century to the extermination of a valiant little nation in South Africa.\u201d There was no extermination.From the battlefields of South Africa there rose a great new nation, free in name and free in fact; a nation created through British statesmanship, and with its fruits seen in the grand spirit of Jan Christiaan Smuts in leadership of his people by the British side in the present fight for freedom.That, apparently, is something the heart and mind of Henri Bourassa cannot understand \u2014 the spectacle of a people who can forget the past, accept the present, and look hopefully and without barren hate to the future.Of approximately 90,000.000 adults in the United States, 27,000,000 don\u2019t know the Japanese have taken the Philippines.\u2014Hadley Cantril, director Prince U.Office of Public Opinion Research.* * * In this hemisphere the goods we

them, are discouraged in Russia in the usual effective Russian way.The Government takes the view that drinking i A beautiful Russian actress was at a reception.She was asked by her hostess to recite something.She could think of nothing to suit the occasion, and begged to be let off with a short selection in her native language.Her audience could not understand a word, but were enthralled by her

breaking crowd.Participants from eight different states met and decided to form a War Orphans Scholarships committee to assist in the work of raising funds for scholarships for the orphans of the war.The open pair championship was won by Mrs.Rcba Buck and Tom Mahaffey, of Indianapolis.Today\u2019s hand, taken from that event, proves that the Indianapolis players are not afraid to bid, and they get there fast.North\u2019s response of three no! trump over the opening two-diamond bid shows a trick and a half without an ace.What would you bid over three no trump with the South holding?You can
