But they must still catch their man, also wanted elsewhere for questioning in the bathtub deaths of two other women, both of whom died from unnatural causes still ob scure. Less than 48 hours after Mrs. Boyer’s body was found in her apartment, shot three times, In spector Robert J. Barrett, chief of District of Columbia detectives, ob tained a warrant charging Med ley with murder in the first de gree. The warrant was signed by United States Commissioner Need ham C. Turnage. The search for Medley, who was serving a 30 to 60 year sentence for kidnaping and armed robbery when he escaped from a Michigan State prison last November, cen tered around pawn shops. It was on a pattern of finger prints, found in the Boyer apart ment, and a series of pawnshop vis its by a man identified by shop proprietors as Medley, that the police picked the escaped convict as their man. Medley has been Indicted In the slaying of Miss L. A. Fisher, a 28-year old textile worker whose body was found in a New Orleans notel bathtub Christmas eve. He also is wanted for questioning in the death of Mrs. Blanche Zim merman, 38, a telephone operator, whose body was found in a Chicago hotel February 17. Medley had made the acquaint ance recently of Mrs. Boyer, Bar rett said, through a third person who met him in a downtown Wash ington restaurant. The man, police said, had been seen in Mrs. Boyer s company frequently since that time, and attended a card party Tuesday at her apartment, Barrett said. Her body was found Thurs day night. -V War Costs Germans 50 * Generals On West Line SUPREME HEADQUARTERS A L L I E"D EXPEDITIONARY FORCE, March 10.— (IF) —The war has cost the German army 50 generals on the western front alone, 18 of them killed and 32 captured, Allied headquarters dis closed today.

OVER TOKYO, March 10— UP)— I not only saw Tokyo burning fur iously In many sections but I smelled it. Huge clouds of smoke billow'ed high above the city. The conflagration was so great that the bomb bay doors of the superfortress, the underside of the fuselage and the gun blasters were blackened with soot. This bomber was one of more than 300 from American bases in the Marianas—forming the great est fleet of superfortresses ever put in the air—which gave the Japanese capital the hotfoot early today. Our navigator didn’t have to give the pilot a bearing on Tokyo. Other bombers were ahead of us and 40 miles from the city we could see the reddish glow of fires already started. As soon as we reached the Jap anese mainland we saw scores of smaller fires, en route to Tokyo, and possibly set by the Japanese as diversionary ruses. The superfortresses went In singly, a complete change from their previous formation tactics. Over the outskirts of Tokyo, our plane tore through high, somber clouds of smoke and fires. The smoke seemed inside the plane. It smelled like the Interior of a long burnt building. Suddenly there was an opening through the pall of clouds and there was Tokyo. I have never seen such a display of distraction, nor had such an experience. Fires were raging in several multi-block areas and creating al most daylight conditions. In ad dition, there were hundreds of blazes throughout the waterfront area, most densely populated sec tion in the world. Another indica tion of the conflagration’s inten sity was the turbulent air condi tions we encountered over the tar get. Our plane—named “patches” and bearing a semi-nude painting on its nose—struck down and up drafts and bounced 2,000 feet in split seconds. Crewmen were tos sed from their seats. Several struck their heads violently against the top of the plane. They were pro tected from injury by flak hel mets. Maj. Walter F. Todd, of Ogden, Utah, operations officer and com mand pilot, said he thought we were hit by flak but speedy exami nation proved everything was oj> erating satisfactorily. A moment later, 2nd Lt. Leo P. Ziemiansky, of Buffalo, N. Y., navigator, sang out: “Three, two, one, mark!” at the last word of the count, the bombardier, 2nd Lt. Thomas C. Moss, of Aurora, 111., dropped the “eggs” in the target area. As a civilian noncombatant, my contribution was limited to a brown beer bottle—empty, of course. Several searchlights played on the plane a few moments but we saw no interceptors and only a few scattered flak bursts. We did see the city gettiil^ a terrific plastering and they’ll need a highly efficient fire department to put out the blazes. -V BUY WAR BONDS AND STAMPS Dtuix » atitAr jbuua By R. J.
