Four all-French columns were closing in on Toulon under the command of Gen Delattre de Tu»- 1 slgny, who has first-hand know! edge of the defenses of the big naval base. The closest was that pushing down the southern slopes of Le Reveat-Let-Eaux and nearby Mt. Caume, overlooking the base and only two miles away. Another was approaching along the coast from Ms-Salins-Hyeres. i 10 miles east; athird from Sol- i llers-Tomas. four and a half miles i to the northeast, and the fourth, along the Marseille-Toulon high- 1 way from the vicinity of Le Beausset. five miles to the northwest The French already have cut all roads out of Toulon except a few secondary routes, and they were under artillery fire. o i BATTLE OF NORTH gl l» 111 ..I. — <Continu*4 rvooi t*m* 1) of prisoners taken In that trap to more than 25,«0ti men. and the spectacular American breakthrough across the Seine, coupled with a fast-rolling British push toward the mouth of the river, t threatened imminent annihilation 1 for the enemy units that had

escaped that trap. United Press war correspondent Richard D. McMillan reported that the latest bag of captives included three Naxl generals: Lt Gen. BadInski. commander of the 876th division; Gen.

Patton's troops also forced a crossing 12' a miles to the north at Vernon. A steady stream of men and armor was reported pouring into the bridgeheads and Berlin said Patton's forces were fanning out along the south bank of the Seine on u front of more than 30 miles, reaching northward to Gallion and south to within 18 miles of Paris. Other American columns pounded at the western and southern gates of Paris and. according to Nazi reports, sent armored patrols stubbing into the city itself, where German tr.M.ps were fighting thousands of heavily-armed patriots.

British forces lashed out from the (’a.-n area in a great wheeling movement that rolled back the German lines to within two miles ! of tin* highway center of Llsleux and carried to within alsiut 19 ! miles of the Seine estuary. With the Americans already funning out along the north bank of the Seine and the British threatI ening to break across in a matter of days at the most, the plight of fin- Nazi 7th army appeared hope1, less. At the same time, the two Allied spearheads menaced the entire robot bomb coast from Dieppe to Calais, now defended only by the skeletonised German 15th army, ; moat oi whose tanks and artillery had lieen drained off the liolster ' tin* 7th army in Normandy. o Class 1 railroads handled 3 percent more ton miles of freight in OctolM-r 1943 than for tlie corresponding month in 1942.
