Red army men and officers, they reported, anxiously inquired about the prospects of a second front. Willkie was escorted on his tour of the Russian positions immediately behind the firing line by the sector commander, Lieut. Gen. Lili~ ushenko who is only 38. He was much impressed by Liliushenko and by the youthfulness of other Red army commanders. Willkie was accompanied by the American military experts, Maj. Gen. Follett Bradley and Lieut. Col. Joseph A. Michela. Tonight Willkie is scheduled to attend the opera after conferring

Widespread Raids in.

South Pacific.

GEN. MacARTHUR'S HEADQUARTERS, Australia, Sept. 25 (U. P.) —Allied planes have struck for the 11th straight day at Japanese

communication lines between Buna, lon the north New Guinea coast, and the mountain village of Kokoda, base for the Japanese who drove across the Owen Stanley mountains, it was announced today. = > Pighter, attack, heavy bomber and reconnaissance planes joined in a day of raids which extended from Buka island at the northern ‘end of the Solomons to Dili in Nather-lands-Portuguese Timom :2200 miles to the west. JA strong formation of allied fighter planes machine gunned the 60-mile trail between Buna and Kokoda. They, left flaming huts which the Japanese used as storehouses for equipment and supplies, and again bombed the important Wairopt bridge which had been damaged in two previous raids. The bridge is a bottleneck on the Japanese supply line. At Rabaul, the great Japanese base in new Britain island east of New Guinea, flying fortresses scored a direct hit on an 8000-ton enemy ship and probably sank it. Over Dili harbor, Timor, a medium bomber unit of Lockheed Hudsons bombed a medium sized enemy ship but could not see what happened to it.

TRAIN KILLS HOOSIER LA PORTE, Sept. 25 (U. P.) —Carl Stahmer, 85, was killed instantly yesterday when his auto was struck by a B. & O. streamliner at a grade crossing 100 yards from his home, 15 miles southwest of here. He was an employee of the farm

Believe .‘Accidents’ Pinned

In diplomatic quarters here there was a disposition to connect the deaths of Stephen Horty, son and heir of Hungarion regent Admiral Nicholas Horty, and of Count Karolyi, the regent’s son in law, with their opposition to Hungary's 100 - per cent collaboration with the axis-—an implication that the airplane “accidents” in, which they were killed were arranged by German or pro-German Hungarian agents. : Recent Russian bombings of Hungary were reported to have caused misgiving throughout g country which had: expected like other German jackals such as Italy and Rumania to win all and lose nothing in the war. A German. .broadcast revealed that Hungary\ had ordered all theaters and movie houses closed by 9:30 p. m. nightly. Cafes and restaurants must close by 11 p. m. A blackout has been in effect for 10 days. ;
