Western Front Aflame as Nazis
Strive to Hold Allied Advance;

As war comes to their soil, German civilians pack belongings and
move from battered villages in war zone to safety.
EUROPE:
!
Battles Rage
i In. some of the bloodiest fighting
since D-Day, the whole western front
from Holland down to Switzerland
(was aflame, with Allied forces slug-
ging through stubborn enemy de-
fenses and then holding their own
against German counter-attacks.
Especially bitter fighting occurred
on Lieut. Gen. George S. Patton’s
Third army front, where U. S. tanks
spearheaded a drive on Germany’s
famed coal and industrial Saar ba-
sin, and the enemy lashed back with
strong armored forces. As Patton’s
men edged forward, the enemy fell
back on the rugged and wooded
slopes of the Vosges mountains,
where they were expected to make a
stand before retiring to the Siegfried
line to their rear.
Stiff German resistance and
1 repeated armored counter-
'■ -attacks also slowed progress of
. Lieut. Gen. Courtney Hodges’
First army to the north of Pat-
ton’s Third. In this sector, ene-
my strength concentrated about
’Trier and Stolherg in an effort
to throttle Hodges’ drives to the
* great Rhineland industrial cities
«f Cologne and Coblenz.
In Holland, an estimated 100,000
Germans fought against entrapment
by Allied ground forces driving up
'the eastern border of the country to-
PACIFIC:
No Pause
Even as U. S. marines and dough-
boys cleaned up resistance in the
Palau islands, 600 miles east of the
Philippines, American airmen were
on the go softening up other enemy
strong-points.
Again the Philippines were the
principal targets. Hopping off from
New Guinea, army bombers blasted
the southern port of Davao, shuttle
point for enemy troops and supplies
in the area, and carrier planes op-
erating in the Third fleet hammered
shipping, airfields and military in-
stallations around Manila bay, nerve
center of the islands.
In striking the southern Palaus,
whose conquest placed U. S. forces
closer to the vital enemy water route
from the Indies to Japan, American
troops encountered fanatical resist-
ance, more than 7,000 Nipponese sol-
diers out of a force of 10,500 fighting
to the death on the main island of
Peleliu.
FIGHTING SHIPS:
Allied Might
Recognized naval manual of the
world, the 1943-’44 edition of “Jane’s
Fighting Ships” noted the increasing
strength of Allied might on the high
seas and the continued decline of
Axis strength.
Indicative of the growing power
GREAT BRITAIN:
Building Needs
That rebuilding will provide the
base for Great Britain’s postwar
economy was indicated by the gov-
ernment’s recent announcement that
1.250.000 workers would be needed in
the construction industry to repair
bomb damage.
Contributing to the tremendous
damage wrought by the war have
been the deadly German robots,
some of which have individually
wrecked as many as 1,500 houses,
with the average being 400. About
200.000 square yards of board, 500,-
000 window frames and 400,000 doors
have been ordered to help repair
buildings damaged by the flying
bombs.
At the present time 380,000 peo-
ple are engaged in the construction
industry, it was revealed, with many
thousands of these women.
Postwar Wages
That British labor will put up a
battle to retain its wartime wage in-
creases in the postwar world was
indicated by the strike of 14,000 auto
workers in Birmingham, England,
over assignment of employees to the
assembly of a reputed peacetime
product at lower wages than those
being paid in the munitions depart-
ment.
Under the stimulus of wartime
conditions, with manufacturers bid-
ding for labor, British wages shot
up from about $15 a week to $25 for
men, and from about $6.50 weekly
to $13 for women.
Because of the competition be-
tween themselves and foreign coun-
tries, however, British industrialists
are expected to resist present high
wages unless production costs are
chopped through an increase in la-
bor efficiency or greater use of ma-
chinery.
AMERICAN LEGION:
Wants Strong U. S.
American cooperation with other
nations to keep the peace, forceful
occupation of Germany and Italy to
bring the lessons of war home to
their populations, and compulsory
military training for youth, were
among the resolutions adopted by
the American Legion at its 26th an-
nual convention in Chicago.
Also advocated was retention of
necessary bases, maintenance of the

'ers dropped in their rear.
| Effect of the Allies’ drive not only
was to threaten the pocketing of
vfchese six divisions in western Hol-
land, but also to put them into posi-
tion to drive around the Siegfried
line ending to the south of this
sector and burst out into the Ruhr
valley.
Clawing through the battered
“Gothic line” under the cover
of the rolling barrage of their
massed artillery, Allied forces
looked out onto the rich Po val-
ley in northern Italy, as German
armored formations sought to
stem their rolling advance in
this great agricultural and in-
dustrial region.
Russ Break-Through
Heaviest fighting on the eastern
front centered in the north, where
the Germans claimed more than
600,000 Russian troops were attack-
ing to clear out the Baltic states of
Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.
Despite the Germans’ hard de-
fense of their lines, built up in the
swampy lake country of Estonia and
Latvia, the Reds punched out size-
able gains.
The old Polish capital of Warsaw
was a fiery inferno as the Reds
pumped shells into the German de-
fenses of the city, and Red troops
surging across the Vistula river
came to grips with enemy units.
Armistice Terms
■ Calling on the nation to “. . . stick ■
to reality and try to build up . . .
existence with the opportunities t^iat
are left to us,” Finnish Acting Prime
Minister Ernst von Born disclosed
Russian armistice terms to a heavy-
hearted people.
Including restoration of the 1940
Etusso - Finnish border; cession of
Petsamo to the Reds; leasing of the
Porkkala peninsula on the Gulf of
Finland for a Russian naval base,
and fl¶tions payments of $300,-
000,000, the armistice terms were
described as “the hardest ... in
our history” by Von Bom.
Restoration of the 1940 border
meant Finland’s surrender of its
most highly developed industrial re-
gion containing 10 per cent of its
population, and cession of Petsamo
meant the country’s surrender of
rich nickel mines.
GAS TEST
Five hundred officers and en-
listed men have been commended
by the chemical warfare service of
the army services forces for volun-
that it numbered 4,167 ships last
January, exclusive of thousands of
landing craft, with high watermarks
including the scheduled launching of
two new 45,000-ton battleships this
year, the development of a fleet of
100 aircraft carriers, and the con-
struction of new 2,200-ton flotilla
leaders.
Referring to Axis naval strength,
“Jane’s” reported that disablement
of Germany’s Tirpitz and Gneisenau
removed its last big capital ships
from service, and despite the launch-
ing of two new 45,000-ton battleships,
' Japanese shipbuilding facilities were
running behind demands.
CONGRESS:
Charts Reconversion
With the fall elections rapidly ap-
proaching and congressional leaders
pressed to assemble sufficient quor-
ums, the house and senate made
preparations for handling the post-
war economic crisis and then moved
toward a recess until November.
First bill to get an O.K. and be
sent up to the White House for the
President’s signature was the one
providing for a three-man adminis-
trative board to supervise the dis-
posal of an estimated 100 billion dol-
lars of surplus war goods, with no
Legion hi-jinks sees Claude Duzick
posed as Mae West, escorted by Hap
Gordenson.
As the first major step to enable
the automobile industry to prepare
for peacetime manufacture, the War
Production Board authorized Chrys-
ler, Ford and General Motors to per-
mit technicians to plan correction of
weaknesses in 1942 models; bring
material specifications to date; map
plant layout, and design minor
changes in 1942 models. None of the
companies are permitted to spend
more than $25,000 monthly for labor
or material in this work.
discrimination to be shown against
little business and sale of all war
plants over $5,000,000 subject to con-
gressional approval.
The second bill passed called for
establishment of an office of re-
conversion, which would coordinate
the work of all government agen-
cies in the switch-back to peace-
time conditions, and also authorized
the lending of funds to states if need-
ed to meet unemployment compen-
sation payments.
navy at full strength; preservation
of free enterprise within the U. S.;
stoppage of all immigration until un-
employment should fall to around
1,000,000, and deportation of all sub-
versive aliens to their native coun-
tries.
Active in Legion affairs in his
home state, where he was credited
with bringing Legion membership
up to 85,000, Edward N. Scheiberling
of Albany, N. Y., was elected na-
tional commander. Mrs. Charles B.
Gilbert of Norwich, Conn., mother of
two sons in service, was elected
president of the Legion Auxiliary.
RAIL TRAFFIC:
Safety Problem
Answering Sen. Burton K. Wheel-
er’s charges that railroads have
failed to heed congress’ direction for
the installation of safety equipment
which might prevent fatal train
wrecks, company officials declared
that many wartime accidents could
be attributed to inexperienced help.
Because human failings more often
than not have been shown to be the
cause of many accidents, a large
number of the roads have broad
educational programs, it was said.
In addition to a reliance on new
help and inability to obtain materi-
als for safety devices because of pri-
ority restrictions, rail officials said,
the vast increase in wartime freight
and passenger traffic has multiplied
the chances of mishaps.
Pointing out that congress em-
powered the Interstate Commerce
commission to order the railroads to
install safety equipment 24 years
ago, Senator Wheeler said the gov-
ernment may be compelled to force
such action if the ICC failed to press
for action.

The world has entered a period of
international gatherings, the num-
ber and scope of which have never
even been approached before in his-
tory. On their success or failure de-
pends the winning or the losing of
the peace.
In the fields and the factories of
the United States were produced the
materials whose weight in the bal-
ance sealed the victory for the Al-
lies. Now, will America be willing
to contribute to the conferences
which are struggling to deal with
postwar problems that “town-meet-
ing” spirit which has made our own
“league” of states a success? With-
out this help no trail to peace can
be blazed.
There was a moment in Quebec,
last month, at the one gathering
when press and radio stood face to
face with Roosevelt and Churchill,
when a human note entered the at-
mosphere that struck me forcefully.
The prime minister was speaking
about the speculation over the va-
rious persons who had been called
into the Quebec conference and con-
cerning whom there had been much
speculation, not only Foreign Min
ister Eden, but also Secretary of
the Treasury Morgenthau.
The prime minister developed a
theme which the President has often
used and which in both cases, I be-
lieve, represented the considered
opinion of men who had learned by
experience. And that theme is that
many difficult problerhs become sim
plifiet^ when they are discussed face
to face. Mr. Churchill remarked it
was hard to underestimate the in-
efficacy of the printed word (as com'
pared to personal contact) and he
also said that already a number of
friendships had developed from An-
glo-American meetings which were
a decided asset to both nations from
the diplomatic standpoint.
Individuals can learn to get on
together especially when the goal
ahead of them is something above
and beyond their own personal de-
sires.
UNRRA’s Staff
Pledged to Fairness
I was discussing this very point re-
cently with a member of the United
Nations Rehabilitation and Relief
administration. He believes firmly
that the conferences of an interna-
tional nature already called, have
for the most part shown a great
enough degree of success to justify
the hope for considerable progress
toward world understanding.
Some of the facts concerning
UNRRA itself, not generally real-
ized, are worth presenting here be-
cause they seem to support this op-
timism.
UNRRA has just completed its
second session in Montreal and I
must say there was an air about
that meeting which gave one a feel-
ing of the stability of the organiza-
tion. In the first place its director
general, former Governor Lehman
of New York, is so thoroughly ab-
sorbed by his job and imbued with
enthusiasm for it that his influence
energizes the whole staffi
This is one of the intangible things
about this international body which
makes one have some faith in the
ability of the peoples of different na-
tionalities to get together to do
things. Another thing, also more or
less intangible but recognizeable as
a force for unity, is the spirit of the
UNRRA employees which is sym-
bolized by the oath they all have to
take. At this point let me point
out that the employees of the organi-
zation must not be confused with
the 44 members of the council,
UNRRA’s policy making body. The
council members are all plenipoten-
tiaries representing their respective
countries, just as members of con-
gress represent different districts.
But the employees, from the di-
rector general down, who are the
employees of the 44 nations, ttike an
international oath in which they
swear they will serve all countries
equally and will not allow national
prejudice of any kind to enter into
their decisions or their conduct. The
result is an objective attitude which
it is hard for a person making no
such conscious effort to attain, even
to comprehend. I recall something
similar on the part of members of
the Belgian relief commission in the
last war. Their ability to remain in
occupied Belgian territory depended
on demonstrating to the complete
satisfaction of the German military
commanders that they were neutral
and their conscious effort to act ut-
terly disinterested, brought about
a really neutral viewpoint.
Of course, this strictly non-parti-
san attitude is not, nor is it expected
to be, adopted by the representa-
tives of the member nations, and the
controversy which arose at the re-
cent session concerning UNRRA’s
activity in former enemy territory

UNRRA’s accomplishments so far,
the excellent press it has had and
the enthusiasm with which it has
been received—even the few un-
pleasant stories circulated about it
—all indicate that it is a going con-
cern even though it is only intended
to be a temporary one.
We might go down the list of other
conferences, past or pending, and re
port a good deal of progress on most
of them: the Bretton Woods Mone
tary conference, the one on food and
agriculture, both resulted in the cre-
ation of permanent organizations. A
meeting of the ministers of educa-
tion of the United Nations held last
April in London, I am told, will
undoubtedly contribute to the pro-
motion of wider educational opportu-
nities' of education.
A general economic conference,
recently called by Secretary Hull,
and one on aviation are yet to be
proved.
It is only when you get into realm
of the military or the political that
you begin to run into snags. It

for this is that military and politi-
