REDS FORGE BIG BULGE IN NORTH

60-Mile Advance Promises To Eclipse Victory at Mozhaisk.

BRITISH HOLD ON IN EAST MALAYA

Fight Stubbornly on West And Central Fronts; Wreck Jap Tanks.

other vehicles and are holding on| & the eastern front, a General Headquarters communique said today. British planes, backing up the hard-pressed ground forces, struck forcibly against the Japanese along the main Singapore highway north of the central front, attacking troops and transport. They bombed roads, causing casualties and damage to transport, the communique said, and low-fly-ing planes machine gunned Japanese troops. All planes returned to base, it was asserted.

Allied Traffic in Peril The Japs already have nullified Singapore as an Allied naval base— but not as a key base for future counter-blows. They will have cut off all or almost all Allied traffic over the important route north of Australia if, as seems likely, they can consolidate their landings in New Guinea and New Britain. But the main line of defense islands held by the Allies in the East Indies merely has been. penetrated, rather than broken. The United Nations’ lines have heen shortened, especially at Singapore and Rangoon, and their defenses have besome stiffer as the climactic battles develop to determine whether the enemy can finally break through. British Fall Back in Libya In any event, the gravity of the Japanese offensive continued unabated and the British gains in their winter offensive in North Africa appeared to be in some danger as a result of Axis counter-at-tacks directed by Nazi Gen.

The southern arm previously had battered its way to within possibly 60 miles of Smolensk and if the pincers can now be closed the Axis forces on the central section will be lucky if they are able to escape a huge trap and set up new lines on the Dnieper-Dvina front.

‘Authorities are appealing urgently for blood donors. Hundreds of lives were saved by blood transfusions after the Japanese bombings of the civilian area earlier this week, but casualties were so heavy the blood stock was almost exhausted and the need now is urgent. The fighting services have requisitioned all but three of the British schools and those three closed because pupils could get no transport. The approach of the front to the strait has altered the attitude of most people in the island, and there is a general feeling of comradeskip.

The planes were said to be Curtiss P-40 fighters, more than capable of dealing with any Japanese pursuit ships being employed in the Luzon attack. This is the same type of plane with which American volunteer pilots attached to the Chinese Air Force aided British fighter squadrons in bringing down 21 planes over Rangoon.

In the initial hearing yesterday, Frank E. Kelley, former police chief, and City Clerk James G. Ferrell testified as the first witnesses. The charges against the Council members were brought by Kelley following his demotion to patrolman. Kelley had led the revolt of police personnel against the City Council's establishment of a 12-hour shift for police at no increase in pay.
