HISTORIC EXPLOIT BY R.A.F.

London, To-day.

An R.A.F. Bomber Squadron In France has received a message of congratulation, "Gentlemen, I thank you” from General Georges, Chief of Staff to Gen- eral Weygand, for an historic exploit.

All the bridges over the Meuse near Maastricht where the Germans were making their thrust to divide the Al- lied forces had been blown up except one over which poured tanks and armoured units of the enemy ad- vance stores, petrol, ammunition - everything came over that one bridge. It was heavily defended.

Anti-aircraft guns kept up a bar- rage of fre. Enemy fighters main- tained constant patrols.

Eight attacks were made by British bombers. The river banks were shattered by high explosives, fighters were shot down in flames, anti-air- craft batteries bombed out of action.

But no direct hit was scored on the bridge.

Still advances poured over that one crossing.

At R.A.F. Squadron Headquarters, the Commanding officer made a short speech to the pilots. The bridge must be destroyed. Volunteers were want- ed.

The pilots stepped forward as one

man.

So they wrote their names on slips of paper and put them in a hat. Four crews were chosen. They went off without waiting.

Fighters went up as an escort and made straight for the bridge at Maast richt. The fighters took on the enemy's fighter guard, welcoming all odds to give the bombers their chance.

Facing a blizzard of enemy fire, the bombers dived low on the target. Of those four crews, one man came back, but the bridge at Maastricht blown up.-British Wireless.

NARVIK CAPTURED

London, To-day. Narvik was taken by Allied troops on Tuesday night, together with two hamlets on the fjord to the east of Narvik.

The Germans admit its loss and say that it fell to British troops accom- panied by warships.

Presumably, the R.A.F. also had a hand, for Tuesday night's Air Minis- try communique said that several Ger- man 'planes had been destroyed here by our fighters.-Reuter.

CONSCRIPTION CALL

IN CANADA

for

Ottawa, To-day. There is a growing demand conscription in Canada.

The Canadian Legion has requested universal conscription and immediate mobilization of men and material.

Many leading Canadian papers also call openly for conscription--Reuter.
