« Les bombardements contre le Japon n’ont jamais été aussi puissants, et vont encore être augmentés. Le but immédiat est la destruction de la puissance aérienne nippone, a déclaré hier M. Patterson, sous-secrétaire américain a la Guerre. Cette semaine, a-t-il ajouté, est la pire que le Japon ait encore vécue. »
Sur les 38.000 prisonniers épuisés de faim et décimés par les épidémies que l’armée américaine trouva a Dachau, il y a deux mois, 33.334 ont été évacués.
Dachau ne comprend plus que 2.090 personnes hospitalisées et 2.576 convalescents. Ces derniers seront renvoyés chez eux dès que possible.
Cependant, des internés d’un nouveau genre arrivent a Dachau et, parmi eux, Josef Jarolin qui fut l’un des chefs de camp sous les nazis. Le camp sera spécialement réservé pour certaines catégories de prisonniers allemands, notamment les anciens geôliers des camps de concentration nazis.
In Bastille Day the people of France have given the world an undying symbol of Freedom. Throughout the long history of our friendship with France the people of the United States have shared the principles for which it stands. Never have those principles had a greater significance than in this year of the final overthrow of one of the darkest tyrannies that has ever tried to enslave mankind.

HOLLYWOOD, California (UP) – Mme. Alla Nazimova, one of the world’s greatest actresses and a favorite for two decades, died of a heart ailment in a hospital here today.
The Russian-born actress was 66.
She had returned to pictures only a few months ago after leaving the screen for 15 years. Her last picture was Since You Went Away.
She toured the provinces of Russia with small troupes and became a leading lady in 1904. A year later, she landed on America’s shores and made her American debut without knowing a word of English.
From then on, her name sparkled from gilded marquees of legitimate and movie theaters from one coast to another.
