Each advance . . each new sector . . each mile that the battle front is extended . . is hard going. Much fighting lies ahead. There's more to be done on the home front, too.• More money is needed to enable our country to carry her share of the war's cost. Our duty is clear we, at home, must provide the money. Canada must get this money from Canadians. ERj'6'�D. Fortunately, lutist of us have good incomes. ;We can do our share. But it is the extra effort that wins battles and we must be prepared to make extra effort on the home front. Canada's borrowing needs have been increased by some three hundred and twenty million dollars. That's extra effort that we, at home, must make. We must provide the money that is needed ... more money than ever before. We must keep faith with our fighting men. We must continue to work and save.... and lend. We must all lend more. 7.58 A/ 61" Fuss, Ladies' work: Elizabeth Webber, M. Livingston,H. A. Fuss, Mrs. F. Wallis, 0. Battler, Snowden and Grainger, Mrs. R. Heard, A. Mellick, Ed. Foster, W. G.

Michie in Toronto Saturday Might. 'It concerns the German robot planes and the hopes the Nazis held of tremendous destruction in Britain through use of -these monstrous agents, and how these hopes were foiled by British ingenuity, The destruction caused by the "buzz -bombs" has been so great and the loss of life so terrific that one wonders what would have happened. had the robotattack started' earlier -and why it wasn't started before the invasion was launched, Mr. Michie's story gives an answer. On August 17, 1943, a heavy air at- tack was lauched on Germany, The next day ,the British Air Ministry announced that the German research and development station at Peene- munde had been keavily hit: That brief communique may have held 'the secret which` would decide the war: ,- The Germans appreciated the value of airpower more than most other folk. But they didn't have a complete understanding of 'how it was to be used. They visualized an air force working as a branch of an advancing array -a sort of flying artillery. Accordingly they had not devised an adequate air arm which could function effectively .in its own medium -as the battle of Britain showed. The Royal Air Force had, and though it was slower in begin- ning operations, by the spring of 1943 the effectiveness of the R.A.F. tactics were no conger open toques - tion. Whole German cities were disa- ppearing and the American day bombers were adding to the destruc- tion. Action Nee'de'd To counter this the bombing arm of the 'German Luftwaffe, once so nearly omnipotent, had been reduced to a few hundred semi -obsolete ma- chines. Britain was practically ,im- mune to any attacks which these forces could launch. But something NATIONAL WAR FINANCE. COMMITTEE. had to be done to shore, up the crmnbling morale of the German people, cut down on. British produc- tion and fend off an invasion. The Germans had for years been experimenting on flying bombs and long-range rockets. Indeed one pro- fessor, usually regarded as a 'little touched, had been talking of sending a rocket to the moon, The Mea of flying bombs had an uncanny attrac- tion for •Germans and Hitler gave orders that the experiments should be rushed, when it had become evi- dent that the Luftwaffe's more nor- ma] tactice would hardly be suffic- ient. At Peenemunde, a lonely spot in a forest not far from the Baltic coast and 60 miles northeast of Stettin, The main flying bomb and rocket de- velopment centre was established, It was surrounded by secrecy -and electrified barbed wire. Into it went the best technical brains of the Luft- waffe and toplflight - aeronautical engineers. Maj. -Gen. Wolfgang von Chatnier,Gliesezenski, head of the supply department of the 'German army, was in charge and he had thou- sands of professors and other experts working, under him. The "secret weapon" was to be un- leashed duding the winter of 1943- "v 44 when shelter conditions • would be most uncomfortable and discomfort would be greatest. Some Germans thought the weapon would decide the: war within 24 hours. Even conserva- tive estimates expected the evacua- ; tion of London and Southern Eng- land, disruption of British war pro- duction and crippling of southern ports. Launched just' before an in- vasion the bombs might well cripple such an operation completely. British Intelligence was more then interested in the new development. Plans .of the flying bomb were se- cured. It was discovered that Peene- munde was the research centre. Care- ful plans were laid for a raid. Bomb ens roared •over Peenemunde on er- rands elsewhere, apparently paying no attention to what was below them. But detailed reconnaissance photo- graphs were taken and all available bits of information dovetailed to- gether, The new maid presented her refer- ence to her employer.
