Soviet amphibious tanks rushed across swamps ami canals on a nine-mile front as far as Eberswalde and Bad Freinenwalde, where they were meeting stiff resistance from German assault guns, the Nazis said. Eberswalde lies only four miles from the Stettin-Berlin superhighway and 76 miles northeast of American ninth army spearheads in the Stendal area. Due cast of Berlin, other Soviet forces merged their bridgeheads across the Oder river on a 20mile front between Kienitz, 32 miles east of Berlin and Lebus, five miles north of Frankfurt, then drove on to within 27 miles of the capital. The, strategic Seelow Hills, also 27 miles east of Berlin and 11 miles southwest of Kuestrin, likewise fell to the advancing Soviets, German broadcasts admitted. The Russians breached the German line on each side of Frankfurt, 33 miles east southeast of Berlin, another Nazi dispatch said, though it claimed these penetrations were "not operationally important.” Still another breach was torn in the German line at Fuerstenberg, 14 miles southeast of Frankfurt, the Germans said.

Roosevelt's Estate Left In Trust Fund Late President's Will Is Probated Poughkeepsie, N. Y., Apr. 17 — (UP) — Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s will leaves the bulk of his estate—believed to be in excess of $1,000,000 —in a trust fund for his widow, Mrs. Anna Eleanor Roosevelt. No valuation was made of the late president’s estate, but bis mother left him the bulk of her $1,089,000 estate. The will was drawn soon after his mother’s death. The estate included the late president's priceless stamp .collection. Mr. Roosevelt's will, executed in November, 1941, a few months after his Atlantic charter meeting with Prime Minister Winston Churchill, was filed here at the Duchess county seat for probate yesterday. Among specific bequests were $5,000 to St. James church, Hyde Park, where Mr. Roosevelt was senior warden, and all his real estate in Merriwether county, Ga. —including the home where he died — to the Warm Springs Foundation. Servants and personal employes at the time of his death were bequeathed SIOO each. The will named his eldest son, Marine Col. James Roosevelt, former law partner Basil O’Connor and Henry Hackett, Poughkeepsie attorney, as executors and trustees. The five Roosevelt children would be paid half of the trust fund principal in equal shares on the death of Mrs. Roosevelt and would have equal trusts set up for them from the remaining half. The will provided that if any of the children —James, Elliot. John and Franklin Roosevelt and Mrs. Anna Boettiger—died before their mother their share would pass to their children. If there were no surviving children the share would revert to the estate. The will provided that Mrs. Roosevelt could select any personal property she desired. The five children would be allowed to select one-fifth each of what remained but the.document asked that they take only what they, could put to personal use in their own homes. The main house at Hyde Park and part of the estate grounds were deeded to the federal government last year, subject to certain usage reserved for Mrs. Roosevelt and her children. —o Monroe Building Sale Is Announced Mr. and Mrs. Otho Lohenetein, funeral directors of Monroe, have sold their two story brick building on Main street to Ervin Stucky, hatchery aud furniture dealer of that place, who will take posses- I sion of the property July 1, and re- | model it into a display room. , Mr. and Mrs. Lobenstein, who have been funeral directors in Monroe since 1932. will remodel their I home on Walnut street into a fun- | eral parlor and move their (business | to their residence alter July 1.

TRUMANBACKS (Continued From Page One) Judge Samuel I. Rosenman to stay at their posts and help train Truman’s White House team. Discussing the United Nations conference that begins at San Francisco next week, Mr. Truman said he hud no plans to attend the conference at any time. He saifi he would stay at his desk here where he belonged. He said the planned, however, to welcome the delegates through a brief radio address on the opening day. Someone wanted to know what, considerations led him to decide to stay in Washington. In hard hitting phrases Mr. Truman said he had a competent delegation going to San Francisco to represent the interests of this nation and that he would back them up from his desk at Washington. He told the reporters that the burden of work on him was so pressing that there would be only one presidential news conference each week. .He said he would alternate from week to week with morning and afternoon conferences. They will not be held on a fixed day. but would be on either Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. At the outset he announced that he would follow the same press conference rules used by hie predecessor —no direct quotation unless specially authorized. He announced appointment of Matthew J. Connelly as his confidential secretary and Leonard Reinsch to help with press and radio affairs. Connelly had served Truman in .the senate, and Reinsch was a radio expert for the Democratic national committee in the 1944 campaign. Sitting with him during the conference were Connelly, Reinsch. Early, Daniels, Hassett and Adm. William D. Leahy, who was personal chief of staff to President Roosevelt, and who is continuing for the time, at least, in the same role with President Truman. — Michigan drillers struck oil in 246 wells during 1944.
