LONDON, Thursday, March 159-The earth-shaking debut of the
world's biggest bombs, weighing 11 tons each, capped a merciless assault on
the Reich yesterday by more than 500 Allied planes which ripped and
blasted Germany with everything from .50 caliber machinegun slugs to the
new superbomb tall as two-story house.
A rail viaduct at Bielefeld, 38 miles east of Muenster, was the target
for the RAF's newest "town buster," the world's biggest package of explo-
sive, which was used for the first time by four-engined Lancasters specially
adapted for the purpose.

Plans for the formation of an

agreed upon at the meeting this week
of the American Council on Educa-

Washington, D. C.
Education school Dean J. B. Ed-

Washington, said that the commis-
sion was to be set up as soon as
funds are available.
A bill for the reorganization of
the Federal Office of Education was
discussed, Dean Edmonson said, and
proposals were endorsed to increase
its services to schools and colleges.
The bill calls for increases in the
number of areas to be served.
The problem of education for the
returning veteran and how he could
be protected against low-grade col-
leges was brought up, Dean Edmon-

"The surgeons who are operating

TRACKING DOWN
TROUBLE
This laboratory, ready to move anywrhere on short
notice, runs down "crimes" against good tele-
phone service. Finding these threats is one of the
many jobs of the Bell Telephone Laboratories'
scientists.
The "criminals" are such things as threads of
lint, traces of acids, or sulphur compounds in the
air-any of which might damage telephone equip-
ment.
In their interesting war work Bell Laboratories'
scientists have been on a new kind of hunt. They
