REPORT YANKS (Continued From Page One) to join the battle for Berlin, with three more divisions at the west bank on a 75-mile front looping to within 45 miles of the city. To the south, two other American armies—4he first and the third—smashed nearly two-thirds of the way across Germany to within artillery range of Leipzig, transportation bottleneck through which Nazi troops were rushing south for Adolf Hitler’s Alpine redoubt. First army tanks were 16 miles or lese southwest of Leipzig. Third army forces were 17 miles from Leipzig and 70 miles from Dresden. Marshal Sir Bernard L. Montgomery, commander of the British 2r"st army group, told his troops that the Nazis were engaged in destroying all Germany as they fell back for a fight to the death in the Bavarian and Austrian Alps. * The German military machine, which is in the hands of the Nazis, will never suriender,” he said. “They will go on fighting to the last and will bring Germany down with them.” But even as he spoke, the American ninth army's “hell on wheels" second armored division was rolling across the Berlin plain with the Elbe river, the capital’s last formidable water barrier, far behind It. 0 TERR,F, £L RESSURE (Continued From Page One) more of him than 1 had ever seen in the same length of time. It seemed he had aged ten years in ten days. He sat all day in the sun on the boat trip back. He had lost weight, but he refused to take it seriously, said he would gain it back at Warm Springs. On March 1 he made this report on his own health in his speech to congress on the Yalta conference: "1 hope you will pardon me for the unusual posture of sitting down during the presentation of what 1 wish to say, but 1 know you will realize that it makes it a lot easier; tor me not having to carry about I 10 pounds of steel around the bottom of my legs and also because i of the fact that I have just com pleted a 14,()00-mile trip.

The, Roosevelts are not. as you mav suspect, averse to travel. We rteem to thrive on it.” i That was the first time he ever I had referred publicly to his affiic- • tion of infantile paralysis. It also was the first time he had taken of-; ficial notice of rumors that swept! the country occasionally when lie] was running for re-election — that he was seriously ill. or, in extreme ’ cases, that he hud died.
