Large Town Occu Occupied; Two Battleships Are Claimed Damaged.

BERLIN, Sept. 24 (U. P.).—Official quarters claimed gains in “house to house and street to street fighting” at Leningrad today, predicted speedy “elimination” of Russian forces east of Kiev and said that the German air force had damaged the Russian battleships Marat and October Revolution. in ' Finnish waters. : “i : Dispatches reporting incessant pounding of Leningrad‘ by German

: Jdive bombers and artillery: caused

competent quarters to forecast speedy conclusion of the siege. The official news agency said that a large town outside’ Leningrad had been occupied and other quarters said. that German infantry was storming stoutly defended villages and Russian : fortifications in the area. i Authorized quarters said German infantry was so close to Leningrad that shell bursts in the city could be seen through glasses.

Admit Counter-blows

It was admitted that Russian forces “regularly attempted counterattacks” but, it was said, “recent ones were so weak and enemy losses were so bloody that one must ask. . why they were even attempted.” A propaganda reporter reported that “Soviet corpses are piled up before the German lines.” Indication of the intensity of the battle was given in claims of successes against the Russian Navy in waters around Leningrad and Kronstadt. The High Command again today reported bomb hits on battleships and a destroyer in Kronstadt Bay and the official news agency said the Russian battleship Marat was in a sinking condition. The October Revolution was reported disabled. Headed Toward Kharkov According to the High Command, a battle of envelopment east of Kiev will be completed in a few days after two remaining pockets of Red troops have been mopped up. There was belief here that a German spearhead in the Ukraine already had been thrust a considerable distance from = Poltava against Kharkov, Reports admitted that on the central front the Russians “undertook counter-attacks in an attempt to delay the German advance.” Russian ativacks were made on both German flanks, it was said, but they were reported to have failed, The High Command communique asserted that further parts of the Russian forces east of Kiev had been destroyed and that the rest had been “crushed together in two tightly closed pockets.”

BULGARIA“ PLANS PURGE

He said the problem would “tax the resources of the world.” The Allies pledged. full co-opera-tion with the United States and Great Britain.in an attempt ‘to make the world of the. future a better one, free from fears of aggression and ‘economic restrictions which might cause a third great war,

-Only China Missing Russia and Greece, which had not been present for a preliminary conference .June 12, took part in today’s miniature League of Nations session. Only a Chinese representative was needed to complete the

list of victims of aggression. Counting the British Dominions, 16 nations were represented. Besides Russia, the British Empire and Greece, representatives of Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Jugoslavia, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland and Free France were present. Ivan Maisky, Russian Ambassador, in announcing Russia's agreement with “the fundamental principles” of the Roosevelt-Churchill promised that Russia would energetically support them.

Words for the U. S.

In what many delegates believed to be a broad hint to the United States, Maisky said: “The Soviet Government considers it imperative to declare with particular emphasis that all peoples which have recognized the necessity of smashing Hitlerite aggression today have one main task—to mobilize all economic and military resources of freedom-loving peoples in order to attain the speedy emancipation of the nations which are groaning under the oppression of the Hitlerite hordes.” Maisky also made what seemed an implicit pledge that Socialist Russia would abstain from subversive activities in other countries. “The Soviet Union defends the right of every nation to independence and territorial integrity of its country, and its right to establish such social order and choose such form of government as seems opportune and necessary for the better promotion of its economic and cultural prosperity,” he said.

ky said Russia desired peaceful neighborly relations with all countries which respect the integrity and inviolability of its borders.

Dutch Issue Warning .

Only The Netherlands Government took exception to any part of the Atlantic Charter. Foreign Minister Eelco Van Kleffens indicated a Dutch anxiety at the phrase “with due respect for existing obligations” in Point Four, which pledged access on equal terms to the trade and. raw materials of the world. He was clearly objecting t the continuance of British preference for Dominions trade. He said that the same expression had been used in the last war but “we all know what became of it when the snowball of protection was set rolling.” Poland and Czechoslovakia introduced a note of realism in a declaration that only by total annihilation of German militarism can Europe be secured against repetitions of aggression. There must be no sentimental application of the Atlantic declaration, Jan Masaryk, speaking for the Czechoslovaks, said.

U. 3. WAR GAMES IN FINAL PHASE

Gen. Lear’s Second Army Given Little Chance to Hold Shreveport.

By UNITED PRESS _ The final phase of the’ Army’s greatest peace-time war games begins today in the defense of Shreveport, largest city of northern Louisiana theoretically besieged by an enemy force, The Red Second Army under command of Lieut. Gen. Ben Lear will defend the city against the attacks of Lieut. Gen. Walter Krueger’s Blue Third Army. Gen. Lear’s forces include 127,000 men; Gen. Krueger's 237,000. Each Army has an armored (tank) division and each is equipped about equally with anti-tank forces and a supporting air _arm. Richard C. Hottelet, United Press staff correspondent recently returned from Berlin, reported from the Red Army, however, that reconnaisance forces have surveyed every part of the area over which the attackers must fight and that every advantage of terrain and natural obstacles will be utilized. Leon Kay, also a United Press war correspondent, who is attached to the Blue Army, reported that high officers are expecting the final phase of the war games to offer a major test of the Army’s new antitank tactics.

RUSSIANS BREAK

Roosevelt Faces ‘Toughest’ Battle on Arming of Ships

NAZI OFFENSIVE

[Reds Counter-Attack Along

Whole Front, Moscow Dispatches Say.

MOSCOW, Sept. 24 (U. P.).—War dispatches today said the Red

Army had broken a German offen-

sive on the Arctic coast, driven back enemy siege lines at Leningrad, smashed forward through Panzer

{units on the central front and

struck back strongly in a great battle for the industrial Ukraine. All along the front, official state-

- ments said, the Russian forces were

fighting incessantly and strongly, despite grave enemy advances in the direction of the Donets Basin and its war industries.

450 Killed

On the central front, the Red Army reported 2500 Germans killed in an advance on the Dvina River sector and said that in one battle a Russian tank unit defeated a Panzer force; capturing 36 tanks, of which 16 were undamaged and all of which could be repaired. In another central front thrust, the Russians were officially reported to have wiped out 450 German officers and men, destroyed an artillery battery and captured many guns and mine throwers. At Leningrad, the Soviet forces were reported to have defeated a German attempt to cross a river and in a counter-attack, fought their way across the river in darkness and seized three villages, a railroad station and a highway.

Rally in Ukraine

On the Arctic coast, a seven-day battle collapsed an enemy offensive that started early in September and was led by picked troops transferred from Norway, including SS battalions and Alpine regiments, the Russians reported, leaving thousands of German dead on the field. The Red Air Fleet was credited with an important part in the victory in defense of the icefree port of Murmansk. Indicating that the Red Army in the Ukraine was rallying strongly against German thrusts, front line reports said that more than 1500 Germans were killed in one battle near the town of Kherson, on the Dnieper estuary, where the Russians held a fortified defensive position well behind the German advance forces. In the Odessa sector, battles of “unabated . violence” continued around the Lustdorf district, where new enemy attacks were beaten off with severe losses, it was reported. An attempt by German planes to raid Moscow was officially said to have been broken up by anti-aircraft defenses, with only a few bombs being dropped.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 24 (U. P.. —Congressional isolationists in both houses promised the President the “toughest” battle he has had yet if he seeks repeal of the Neutrality Act or its modification to permit arming of merchant ships. \ Chairman Sol Bloom (D. N. YY.) of the House Foreign Affairs Committee was confident of outright repeal if Mr. Roosevelt seeks it and best ‘Senate judgment seemed to be that repeal would carry there with a majority of 25 to 30 votes. “Roosevelt will have the toughest fight in Congress he ever had,” said Senator D.” Worth Clark (D. Ida.). “Arming merchant vessels would be the first step in breaking down

leading toward war,” said Senator Charles W. Tobey (R. N. H).

“Repeal would put us into the war zones’ and many of our ships would be sunk,” said Rep. Hamilton Fish (R. N.. Y.) “It is just a trick to get 1s. into the. war by subterfuge and there will be a tremendous fight in the ‘House.” : Chairman Tom Connally ®. Tex.) of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and some other Administration supporters indicated before Mr. Roosevelt spoke of arming ships that repeal was coming in time but not immediately. Others felt that the Administration would prefer to feel out Congressional temper with the new Lend-Lease ap= propriation before raising so tumultuous an issue as ‘neutrality re-

The woman who is a size 38 to 48 and has a large bustline—larger in proportion to her figure—has a definite silhouette problem that bad corseting only accentuates. Her figure shifts when she is in a

sitting or standing position. When

she is standing her figure looks one way and that way is generally, fashionably = speaking, good. But when she is sitting her figure looks another way and that way is usually bad. When she is standing her figure looks well-corseted and wellproportioned. When she sits down, if there are too many bones in her corset, her bustline is pushed up into a silhouette that closely resembles that of a pouter pigeon. On the other hand, if there are too few bones and not enough support at the top of the brassiere section the bustline sags and the figure has, seemingly, no waistline at all.

The foundation we suggest for this type figure is a Sara Drew. It has just the right amount of bones.
