FIGHT UNABATED AT LENINGRAD

Second Great Battle Rages Around Dniepropetrovsk, Says Moscow.

MOSCOW, Aug. 25 (U. P)-—A | Soviet war communique reported (today that the Army of Marshal Klementi Voroshilov, swelled by

thousands of men and women for a last-ditch defense of Leningrad, continued to fight off Finnish and German forces driving in from the north and south. The battle of Leningrad, probably one of the greatest of all time, raged with unabated fury throughout the night with heaviest fightings around Kakisalmi, on the Karelian Isthmus about 75 miles to the northwest, and Novgorod, 120 miles to the south, the communique said. A great battle was reported in progress also at the southern end of the 1800-mile front around Dniepropetrovsk, important industrial city of the Ukraine just north of the big Dnieper River dam.

As the Germans and Finns drove down from the north, Russian and German tanks in massed formations fought savagely in the Klngisepp direction west of Leningrad. Giant Russian tanks were reported smashing into the German armored formations and crushing tanks and men in their path. Today's first communique reported intensified fighting all the way from Lake Ladoga northward to the Arctic Sea and disclosed that the Russian Arctic fleet had landed marines behind the German and Finnish lines to cut communications. It was asserted that two German transports, laden with men and munitions, had been sunk off the Arctic coast. : Fighting was now general in the entire stretch between the Arctic and the Black Seas, with the key sectors for the moment the Kakisalmi area on Lake Ladoga, Smolensk, on the Moscow front; Gomel, at the junction uf the German central and southern army areas, and toward Dniepropetrovsk. The communique asserted that the Rumanian Fifth and Seventh Infantry Divisions had been smashed in the Ukrainian fighting, after earlier communiques had reported the destruction of the Rumanian 15th and 3d Divisions.

Waves of Bombers 'Attack’ Louisiana Town in Blackout

Nation’s Most Realistic Air ‘Jeep’ Cars Become Altars

Raid Test Is Held at Lake Charles.

By LEON KAY United Press Staff Correspondent

WITH THE THIRD ARMY, Aug. 25 (U. P.). — Lieut.-Gen. Walter Krueger, commander of the Third Army, today hurled 130,000 troops, including the second armored division and cavalry, against 60,000 blue soldiers holding a line from Jasper, Tex., to Boyce, La. . The Blues, heavily outnumbered in manpower and tanks, plan to fight a delaying.action. Accordingly, they hope for rain to bog down the attackers’ tanks, and heavy clouds indicate they may get it. The troops have begun to move forward, and the attacking Reds awaited only General signal to cross the restriction line. The Reds attack is the second phase for the September war games with the Second Army. In the first phase, the Blues had the Second Division’s 350 tanks and blundered by using them in reconnaissance and in scattered fighting. The Reds are expected to concentrate their tanks for a final blow, using cavalry to discover the Blue's weak points. Introducing another phase of modern warfare to the maneuvers, waves of attack and heavy bombers last night raided Lake Charles, La., a port of the Gulf of Mexico. The city was blacked out, when sirens sounded, and immediately powerful searchlights criss-crossed the sky. Three-inch anti-aircraft batteries

‘roared as the raiders dropped flares

to find their objectives. Meanwhile, the local defense unit, military police, state and local officers patroled the streets, making citizens black out their windows and stop their automobiles. Officers said it was the most realistic air raid test so far conducted in the United States. They were pleased with the completeness of the blackout. General Krueger, in a radio address after the raid, said it is “extremely gratifying in these troubled times to observe such examples of unity.

WITH THE SECOND ARMY IN ARKANSAS, Aug. 25 (U.P.).—Ene emy Red forces today intensified their drive against Seventh Army Corps lines, already pushed back and stretched dangerously thin. by a counter-attack. The Reds, assumed to be greatly superior in numbers and mechanized equipment, are not giving the Blues, with almost 100,000 real men, a chance to dig in and erect field fortifications. - The problem was “frozen” over the week-end, but opposing - forces resumed it today. The Blues’ three divisions, facing eight Red divisions, tonight will fall back to positions south of Terre Rouge Creek. This night march, the third within a week, will enable commanders to determine how. far their units have progressed in .the technique of mass movement under rigorous blackout conditions. All reserves will be thrown inta the fight by the Seventh Corps come mander to aveid decimation of the corps before it crosses the creek. Elements upon which success of the operation depends are: 1. Will the enemy discover the night withdrawal? : 2. Will Red forces attempt to oute flank the Blue forces, particularly south of the Little Missouri River, east of Reader, Ark.? 3. Will the Red forces receive mechanized reinforcements? The command has ordered pare ticular attention to anti-tank dee fenses and engineers will simulate the blasting of bridges over Terre Rouge Creek. Aviation will be used for combat and reconnaissance. : Counter-attacks will be carried out at the most suitable times by mechanized forces to delay the Red advance and enable the Seventh Die vision to occupy new favorable poe sitions. More than 200 church services were held yesterday. Catholic serve ices were held under field conditions with imprcvised altars formed ‘by folding down the baggage comparte ment covers of “jeep” cars. Chaplains heard confessions in the fields a short distance away.
