'Dear Ernie: Aunt Mary and Dad Are Getting Along Fine’
(Continued From Page One) - and Aunt Mary said to tell you she was on the gad all the time. She goes to all the meetings of the Dana Sunddy school class, the Bong’ niissionary society and the Merry Housewives club, The Merry Housewives, you remember, were organized 33 years ago. Aunt Mary said that many a time you used to drive her and your mother over to their meetings. Yesterday she went to the Home Economics club of the Tennessee ‘Valley church. It was guest day. She liked fhe big display of dresser scarfs, dresses and chair covers the 4-H girls made out of feed and flour sacks. Then this morning Aunt Mary went over to the Goforths and helped Ella get dinner for the threshers, The Goforth’s farm is part of your father's land, you know. You can imagine what the dinner was Iike—fried chicken, roast beef, potatoes, macaroni and SR, noodles, cottage cheese, er beans, apple sauce, prunes, uy pie, peach pie, bread and butter, pickles, jellies, iced tea and coffee.
your father said Betty had a swell time the other day romping with some of the girls who were detasseling corn on Dr. John Sturm'’s place across the road. Aunt Mary has 135 chickens. They're laying 15 or 16 eggs a day and Aunt Mary got 25-cents a dozen last Saturday. Ella said she got 31 cents for her eggs yesterday at the Regal store at Dana and I think Aunt Mary is going to check into that,
Potato Patch Moved
| moved the: potato patch to the old log house and there's nothing in the old potato patch. The garden looks good except for the place your father hoed out one row of beets for weeds. I guess your father doesn’t like beets, They have two long rows of sweet potatoes, about 100 feet each. Aunt Mary is going to do a lot of canning this year because they ran out of except the sauerkraut, but Aunt Mary
she’s going to throw out the sauerkraut. : So far she’s put up 12 pints of gooseberries, seven quarts of cherries, 15 glasses of currant jelly and 18 quarts of green beans. There'll be corn, tomatoes and peaches later. Ty rot is pestering the grapes. I'm giving you all this detail because they said you always liked to go outside and look around in the backyard when you were home. Your father and I stood out near the gate that has the mason jars hung on the pickets and he “told me that he and the Goforths shared 630 bushels of oats this year. Your father didn't have to pay for threshing because Ed Goforth took the straw and that evened things up. The 30 acres in corn are coming along. They've quit plowing it. The nine acres os soybeans look good but need
New Parsonage Dedicated
Oh, .yes, one more thing, Inspired by Aunt Mary, the Dana and Bono Methodist churches have, sold the parsonage on East, A street and have bought the Walker Property on East C street. They dedicated it last Sunday and the People around here are stil] thinking about the 17 stanza roem that was composed and read by Mrs. Grace Jenks. I'll give you the first few verses because they're about Aunt Mary. . “Our district superintendent Held a meetin’ here in May, And consequences were We had a debt to pay.
“We all come up from Bono, * And heard a sermon grand, And at the business session, Our Aunt Mary took a hand.
“She said: ‘Our parsonage needs irs:
17 at the Table
They had 14 men and three women there to eat. Aunt Mary had to come home and cook for your dad and Ed Ambrose, “her men,” as she called them. She is serving tomatoes, and cabbage out of her garden and peaches out of the orchard now. While we were talking, Ella Goforth came over, still wearing her apron, and she apologized and said she had no idea that the Pyles had company. Talking about old clothes reminded Ella and Aunt Mary about your old coat with the patches in the sleeves. They started to laugh about the time you wore it to the White House. Ella said, “Well, don’t worry, anybody that gets around as much as Ernie does knows how to act in the White House all right.” Mrs. Goforth said she got *o thinking about you this noon when she set the jellies on the threshers’ table. She said she remembered how you ate all the Jelly one day and she told the threshers today, “My, wouldn't Ernest love all this jelly?” Remember the Heater? Do you remember when Aunt May wrote you that the oil heater
had leaked and spoiled the rug in her room and you wrote
Mrs. Will Bales bought two new rugs to match awhile back and when she heard about Aunt Mary's accident she gave her a rug that was pretty nearly new, She said she'd rather let Aunt Mary use it than keep it rolled up all the time, Mrs, Tott Bales is “complaining.” She's about. the same, no better, no worse. Mrs. Jennie Hooker is fine. They told me that you and Thad Hooker, her son, were close friends, - Mrs. Campbell is well and Iva Jordan is improving, -§he’s using the “walker” your father used while mending from his fall, And your dad said he'd had a letter from your cousin, Lincoln Saxton, who is in India, and he's getting along all right, too. ~ Aunt Mary's Room Papered
They've painted the woodwork and papered Aunt Mary's room, the dining room-and the kitchen since you were here last and you don't have to worry about the place ever getting run down. Remember, you told them the last time you were home that you were faa they were keeping the place

the Germans were withdrawing as fast as possible along the main road
degrees of confusion, in their ranks, while a few miles inland the resistance was stiffer in an attempt to set| up a wavering shield for the retreat.
Coutances already was outflanked on the southeast by armored units which captured the eight-way highway jun€tion of Cerisy-La Salle, 11 miles southwest of St. Lo, and Notre Dame-Le Cenilly, two and threequarters miles southeast of Cerisy.
Cut Many Highways
On the east wing of the American front, Gen. Bradley's forces advanced two miles south of Le Mesnil Herman, cutting a lateral road and struck out southeast and southwest down other roads leading inland to the heart of Normandy. U. 8. infantry moved forward to improve their positions west . of Caumont at the -extreme-- eastern
new attack a little over a mile southeast of St. Lo overran Hill 10%. This assault apparently was aimed at ironing out the hump in the line med ately east of St. Lo.
fin France « "slated ‘German tanks and horse-drawn artillery a. mile ahead of the American armor. Supreme headquarters did not expect to know for several days how many Germans will be rounded up as a result of the break-through. The seven divisions in the pocket above Coutances had taken a bad beating and were far below normal strength. The British end of the Normandy front was quiet after guns and planes broke up another German attempt to form for an attack in the Verriers area late yesterday.
Town Seems Abandonad
United Press War Correspondent James McGlincy reported that ore U. 8. armored column advanced three and a half miles to within a mile an da half of Tessy-sur-Vire, 10 miles south of St. Lo, and reconnaissance airmen said thes town ap» peared to have béen abandoned by the Germans. The Germans appeared to be in panicky retreat all along the 40mile western half of the Normandy front as the greatest tank offensive ever mounted in western Europe went into its fourth day. Supreme headquarters said there no longer was “any question of a line on the United States front.”
{ST ARMY FIGHTING FOR ELBOW: ROOM
{Continued From Page One)
corps can be cut off above Coutances and knocked out. This corps of seven div&ions represents about half of the 150,000 men the Germans are estimated to have opposing the Americans. If they and their tanks are put out of action, there see\is little probability that the Germans can find the reinforcements to prevent an American sweep to the Avranches-Caen line. The Germans cannot remove units from the Caen area without risking calamity at the eastern end of the line. It is doubtful if they have enough reserves to do the job because of the reinforcements they used up to block the British 2d army’s offensive smash last week. It now appears probable that the British - Canadian attack was a masterly feint. Preceded as it was by the most spectacular aerial bombardment of the war against a battle line, it may have looked to the Germans like the , big push. At any rate, they threw in everything they had available to stop the British and Canadians. Meanwhile, Lt. Gen. Omar Bradley on Se West had his actual tank and mobile strength concealed. When ‘Bradley struck, the Germans found themselves engaged at both ends and in the center, much after the Russian fashion of keepbn enemy busy everywhere at When the - American operation has progressed satisfactorily, there is every likelihood that the British 2d army will strike its real blow, with greater strength than before.

URGE ‘EXIT’ FOR Sr SURVEYORS
ud ots | Firm.
A councilmanic maneuver to discontinue the services of the J. L. Jacobs budgeteering firm, which for the last eight months has been conducting a municipal job and salary survey, will be launched at Monday night's city council session, it was learned today. Dismissal of the Jacobs company, and of Fred Telford as its chief investigator, was decided upon by a council bloc on the theory that the Chicago concern has fully discharged its duties under the original contract and is no longer needed. Although considerable speculation has revolved around the possibility of Mr. Telford's remainin with the city to offer advice on activating his recommended reforms, councilmen are now embroiled in an inter-family “squabble over proposed appointment of a city personnel director and Mr. Telford, for the | present, seems to be out of that picture,
Showdown Likely *
Likelihood that a showdown on! the personnel head issue will be! forced at Monday night's meeting was also seen by council spokesmen, who said that an ordinance authorizing the job at $6000 a year “will either be passed or rejected.” If it's passed, Mayor Tyndall will appoint to the post his present deputy controller, Larry Parsons. If it’s rejected or held over, it will probably mean that G. O. P. organization string-pullers still are not convinced that the city hall faction of the Republican party will not return to befuddle the “regulars” after the general election in November. The organization wants to be sure that any “personnel director” won't be converted into a factional patronage-dispenser when the next mayoralty prialy rolls around. Responsible sources within the Victory organization, city hall G. O. P. faction, have averred that the group will not dissolve its memberships and funds into the regular organization, as has been suggested.

For the sake of his own life and that of his regime which he had promised would endure 1000 years, Hitler must choose a battlefield ast of the Oder. He must fight there with an ho already in complete rout—nothing else can explain the speed of the Russian _advance—plus whatever half-ready reserves Hitler, Goebbels and the Wehrmacht high command can find, He must fight against an enemy in the full flush of victory which today has up to 400 divisions ready for battle. Black Thursday recorded another fateful warning on the perimeter of Western Europe when American tanks completed their breakout in the Normandy beachhead in an offensive which probably is still only half developed. .

They are working with a nation whose endurance already has been {strained beyond believable limits, whose industry is partly wrecked, whose ajrpower is just a shadow and whose army is outnumbered on all fronts. The naticnal morale can be stiffened with promises of new weapons of retaliation and mysterious new methods of fighting which will win the war. But it is difficult to see where propaganda can provide men, guns, tanks and combat planes for the shaky fighting fronts.
Prestige at Full Tide The Russian army long since has reaffirmed its position as the world’s jgreatest single military force and one of its greatest popycal weapons as well, Today its prestige is at full tide. ~The Finnish campaign is just a matter of ‘when the Soviet command wants to divert the necessary effort.

Cut Only Rail Line In the Baltics the Russian army already has cut the only adequate railroad line connecting Riga and Tilsit and may trap the entire German army there. It is advancing toward Riga, Talinn and Kaunas and is threatening the Junkers citadel of East Prussia. Five drives ranging from the northeast to the southwest are developing relentlessly on Warsaw and with it control of Western Poland. Lwow is already in the. rear area and Przemysl has been by-passed. The Vistula river will be a barrier for only a day or two more. Just ahead of the advancing Russian army today lie Cracow, Kattowice, Posnan and Lodz, none of them naturally defensible. Behind them lies Giaster for Hitler.

NINTH AIR FORCE HEAD-
(Delayed)—U, P.).—About 50 Flying Fortresses and medium bombers dropped bombs short of their assigned area and killed and wounded American soldiers during yesterday's record 3000-plane bombardment of enemy lines west of St. Lo, Maj. Lewis Brereton acknowledged today. Brereton, commander of the 9th air- force, told correspondents that the American casualties ‘were much fewer than had been feared and added that “you are practically certain to have some shorts when you have that many planes in the air and resulting smoke obscures the ground.” In the case of one group of Havoc bombers, he said, the bombing release mechanism on the lead plane went wrong and bombs plummeted down 10,000 yards short of the
mass of bombs fell in the assigned area 9000 yards long and 2000 yards wide, - Brereton admitted that the army was hot satisfied with the ree ‘sults of the mass bombardment, presumably because of its failure to bring a quick break-through by tanks and infantry. (The break-through was achieved late Wednesday and Thursday, hows ever.) He said the bombardment was planned at the request of the army commander, who indicated the aren to be hit.
Brereton received the press ess. after a conference with Lt. Gen Oafl A. Spaatz, commander of the U. 8.

Mayor's Backin
By SHERLEY UHL In an indirect way today, Mayor Tyndall gave the nod to Chief Clif-| ford Beeker in the latter's scrap! with the safety board over whether | he can shuffle and reshuffle his police slate without the board's approval,
opinion on authority for police personnel changes.
by specifying: which law, e referred to; “but Corp ate Counsel F Siion oa heii AE derstood to

Old Ordinance Cited
“He probably was referring to a long-standing city ordinance which gives the chief of police exclusive powers to make assignment changes as he sees fit. The ordinance places full responsibility for police department personnel slates on the chief himself.” There the matter would appear to have been settled except for the fact that safety board members themselves have dug up a couple of old statues which they believe bulwark their stand. Principal among these is one which has been read to the mayor, stating:
exclusive control of all matters and property relating to or connected with the fire and police forces. |, . The chief of police shall have exclusive direction and control of the police force, subject to the rules, regulations and orders of the department of public safety.” Latest round in the chief-safety board square-off was over Beeker's announced intention to recreate the homicide squad with assignment to the murder detail of 10 men, headed by his close confidante, Capt.

22 KILLED IN CRASH OF HOSPITAL PLANE
GLASGOW, Scotland, July 28 (U, iP.) —Twenty-two persons, including wounded American soldiers and one U. 8S. army nurse, were killed when a troop-carrying ambulance plane crashed into a cliff near the Mull of-Galloway last night. Military authorities said the plane struck a cliff and crashed on the rocks below. . There were no survivors. Many bodies were charred beyond recognition when the wreckage caught fire. The plane was en route from southern England to a Scottish hose pital. "Two other troop transports which were making the trip landed safely at an RAP station. The victims’ bodies were to the town of Kirkpatrick in a lifee boat.
