Nearly 400 miles to the northeast, American B-29 Superfortresses blasted six Japanese suicideplane bases on Yyushu, southernmost of the Japanese home islands, today for the third straight day. It was the first time that the giant bombers have carried out such a sustained offensive. Between 100 and 15(TB-29’s participated in the attack, bombing from medium altitudes. “Generally good results” were observed in yesterday’s raid on the basis, a 21st bomber command announcement said. Crewmen said Japanese fighters dropped phosphorous bombs on the Superfortresses in a futile attempt to halt the raid. The offensive was designed to neutralize the bases from which Japanese pilots have been taking off in explosive-laden.planes for attempts to crash into American warships. A few Japanese planes broke through to the American ships off Okinawa yesterday morning, a Pacific fleet communique said. The communique did not say whether any American ships were hit, bint a Tokyo broadcast claimed that two Allied cruisens. including the U.S.S. Savannah, and four large transports had been sunk by suicide planes in the Okinawa area. A third cruiser was said to have been damaged.

ISLAND of MINDANAO (Continued From Page One) the island. On Luzon the bitter, yard-by-yard struggle against Japanese positions in the northern mountains continued. The latest communique from Gen. Douglas C. MacArthur's headquarters revealed no change in positions at Baguio, summer capital of the Philippines where the Americans were last reported a little over 700 yards from the center of the city. In Balete Pass, gateway to the Caraballo mountains southeast of Baguio, the 25th division gained 500 yards after a night attack on elaborately-organized Japanese positions. The enemy troops fought back from caves dug into the cliff walls along the pass. Some of the caves were said to be large enough to hold an entire company of troops, and were well-stocked with supplies. 0 AMERICAN sth troops in the Chiasso area along the frontier near Como. The 1 Swiss government evacuated a border zone 300 meters deep, including part of the town of Chiasso. Refugees crossing the border said that only Germans were left this morning in Ponte Chiasso, on the Italian side, indicating the Patriots may have been driven from the town. Other refugees said a German force led by a Nazi general had recaptured nearby Como from partisan troops. The only place the Germans were making a stand was south of Venice against the British eighth army, which reported stiff opposition along the Adige river. The eighth moped up a number of isolated pockets south of the river. o RUSSIANS BREAK (Continued From Page One) tenburg district just west of the Tiergarten. Intensifying their assault, the Russians smashed into Schoenberg and Wilmersdorf, the last two districts south of the Tiergarten and Unter den Linden, today. Soviet “daredevil units” swept into the Tiergarten itself, Ber-|

Un’s heavily-fortified Central Park, against “unrelaxingly bitter resistance,” Moscow said. These shock forces presumably by-passed the German war ministry on Bendlestrasse, beneath which neutral sources have reported Adolf Hitler was directing the defense of Berlin from an underground fortress. Bendlerstrasse is just south of the Tiergarten. The German radio said briefly that the situation in Berlin had “further deteriorated.” Complete occupation of the burning, rubble-heaped capital may come this weekend. Lt. Gen. Kurt Dittmai> spokesman for the German high command, surrendered to the American ninth army, at Magdeburg and said Berlin would fall in a matter of hours, or at most in a few days. Dittmar said he believed Hitler and propaganda minister Paul Joseph Goebbels still were in the doomed city as late as Wednesday and would remain there, dead or alive. All escape from Berlin had ■been cut off. The Soviet midnight communique confirmed the capture of Tempelhof airdrome, last avenue to even temporary freedom open to the trapped Nazi leaders. 0 REBELS APPEAL (Continued From Page One) The London radio said proNazi authorities in Bavaria admitted the Munich uprising but claimed that it had been suppressed. Radio Luxembourg broadcast an unconfirmed report that gestapo chief Heinrich Himmler had offered to surrender Germany unconditionally to Britain and the United States but that his proposal had been rejected on the grounds that it was not tendered to all the Allies. Gen. George S. Patton’s American third army was closing on Munich from the north after capturing Regensburg, and his armored task forces were plunging into Austria 60-odd miles farther east in a drive that threatened to envelop Hitler's Alpine hideout at Berchtesgaden. Patton’s troops were in direct radio contact with Russian forces tn Austria and field dispatches said the two armies were on the

verge of linking up for a joint assault on Berchtesgaden. 0 LEGIQN AUXILIARY (Continued From Page One) a means of livelihood. This year it is expected that more Americans than ever before will wish to wear the poppies as a salute 10 tile dead soldiers and their bereaved families, and as a financial aid to the living but disabled soldiers and their needy families. o Decatur Cub Pack Plans Track Meet The Decatur Cub pack will hold an indoor track meet Monday at 7 p. m. in the Lincoln school gym. Ribbons will be awarded the den winners in the following events: 50 yard dash, folding chair relay, shot put, strap race, potato race, one mile paper relay, running high jump, 440 yard dash, backward race, basebaH throw, hop race 100 yard dash and tug of war.
