German troops committed to the defense of the Ardennes, probably the strongest natural barrier west of the Nazi frontier, were in full flight for the dubious safety of their Siegfried line, hounded every step of the way by American flying columns of tanks and motorized infantry. On the 1st army's southern flank armored spearheads advanced 13 miles southeast of Sedan to the village of Blagny, only 28 miles from the Luxembourg-Germany-France border triangle above Metz which already was menaced by Patton's troops. : Other 1st army units struck out east and northeast of Sedan for gains of 4 to.12 miles and captured St. Cecile, Haut-Fays and Maissin, the last barely 13: miles from the borders of Luxembourg. The 1st army vanguards were eight to 23 miles beyond the Meuse on their southern bridgeheads and

‘Lick last night, at the fall outing of the editorial association, guberinatorial nominee Ralph Gates fe- | peated his claim of a victory by 150,000 votes, 3 Senator Raymond E.

| Mr. Capehart declared that at {least 25 per cent of the governmental bureaus now in existence must be abolished but he declined to name any of them specifically saying that he would do that later. He did say, however, that he favored placing all agencies pertaining to labor under the labor department. Mr. Gates declined to mention specifically any of the changes in the state government he expects to make as governor, saying too that he would announce them later. Senator Willis declared himself iin favor of retention of* the twothirds rule for ratification by the senate of treaties and agreements made by the executive branch of the government,

He said too that he believed that {the President should not personally attend peace conferences “but should send the best minds of the |country.” He said this method would keep the foreign countries from believing that any definite commitments were being made in behalf of the United States, something which can only be done by approval of two-thirds of the senate.

War Correspondent “Joseph Ww. Grigg said the German lines along the Meuse had been shattered completely and its defenders put to rout.

Farther to the north, tHe 1st army pushed three miles southeast of the captured fortress city of Liege to within 18 miles of the Nazi frontier, crossing the Meuse and taking the town of Romsee, The Americans also forced a new bridgehead over “the Meuse just west of Liege, and captured N auviliee en-Condroz. Headquarters spokesmen revealed for the first time that Patton's {mechanized army was being supplied by air with gasoline and oil, to get his huge array of armor started again on the road W the Rhineland.

Supplies Moving Up

A grea; flow of guns and supplies also was moving up-to the Moselle by road and it was indicated that the “big push” was about to resume, if it had. not already done so. A number of unidentified towns

The - Germans - attempted one strong counter-attack early Friday morning, shooting a heavy force of Panther tanks and armored cars across the Moselle under cover of darkness, with some 6000 Nazi troopers clinging to them.

Farther to the northeast, Moscow reported, a lull prevailed along the rast Prussian border, broken only by intermittent but intense artillery duels.

Race Through Bulgaria Far to the south, other Soviet forces were racing through Bulgaria toward the Turkish and Greek borders after an unopposed push across the frontier, There was no sign that the Russlans had crossed into Yugoslavia. A Cairo dispatch said Yugoslav patriots had captured all the main points along the Nish-Belgrade rajlroad and now were attacking Belgrade itself, Soviet armored columns were within 80 miles or less of the Turkish border today and had broken Germany's last hold on the Black sea and pushed the reluctant Bulgarian government into a declaration of war against the Reich.

quarters encampment, thie Germans ‘poured a murderous rain of fire into the Americans and almost succeeded in breaking through the lines. The wild attack was broken, however, by a motley force of American company clerks and cooks who fought off the Nazis with rifles and carbines until armored reinforcements arrived. American tanks and tank destroyers swarmed over the enemy column, destroyed between 25 and 35 tanks and inflicted heavy casualties on the German infantrymen. The rest of the Nazi force scuttled back across the Moselle. British 2d army troops in northeastern Belgium faced equally stiff opposition along the Albert canal line, where a mixeds force of green Nazi troops and survivors of the illfated 15th army were reported to have received a “stand and die” order from Adolf Hitler himself,

Solidly Established

The British were solidly established on the east bank of the canal along a five-mile line from Beeringen to Bourg-Leopold, however, and the communique said the latter town, 26 miles west of the German border, was completely occupied today. Uncofirmed reports said the Germans had opened the sluice gates of the canal and flooded the battle area in a desperate effort to stem the British advance. Canadian “armored patrols drove into Ostend and Brugge and found both ports deserted. Dixmude, 15 miles southwest of Ostend, also was captured by the Canadians after a 35-mile advance from St. Omer. A Berlin broadcast recorded by the London Star's monitors was quoted that allied warships had joined in the battle of the ports, bombarding Boulogne and Calais.

'l| Saw Petain Call Hitler's

the F. F. I. occupied the town, Swiss Minister Stucks learned that a German column, was approaching the town from the west. He contacted the German commander and told him if he marched into the town he would cause useless bloodshed. About that time the Vichy radio broadcast news of the liberation of Paris. The German commander acceded and by-passed the town, This morning T saw Stucks leaving Vichy with his legation. At least 1000 grateful Vichyites cheered him and a French military band played the Swiss anthem. I heard the same story from the Irish minister and the just-installed chief of police, a De Gaullist who is filling three prisons and two concentration camps with the officials and functionaries of the government of Petain and Lavay selected from a staff of 20,000 men and women, Honeycombed With Patriots These 20,000 were honeycombed with patriots working secretly with De Gaullists and the rest of the French underground. Top leaders of Petain's own bodyguard and of Vichy's army, navy, and air force were among those close to Petain and '- Laval who were plotting against them. The Vichy ministers and most of the other high officials fled during the week of Aug. 14 and the F. F. I. occupied the town Aug. 21 without a struggle. F. F. I. leaders agreed that most of the minor government officials . were honest men who did the best they could under the circumstances and many will be sent to Paris for service in the De Gaullist government. Instead of wreaking vengeance on Vichyites, the F. F. I. handled the situation with gloves and especially took precautions for the safety of diplomats. After the first occupation the partisan armed forces were withdrawn and now only a few hundred F. F. I. remain ‘to assist the regular police in making arrests, which now number more than 800 but were expected to reach more than 2000.

On Recognition of

Small Nations. (Continued From Page One)

Mrs. George M. Dewey at his birthplace, OwO0ss0.

Opposes Isolation

Choosing Kentucky for his foreign policy speech only because he wanted it to be the second address on his agenda, Dewey voiced this promise as titular head of the Re-

‘| publican party:

#“S0-long as I have anything to say about it I shall insist on two things. First, that the American people &hall be fully informed of our efforts to achieve and to keep

:4 rithe peace. Secondly, these matters

shall never be subjects for partisan political advantage by any individual, or by any party either in or out of power.” Dewey said the American people are agreed that there shall not be a third world war and know that we cannot achieve that resolve through isolation. “Qur problem is not how to stay out of a future war,” he said. “Our problem is to prevent a future war before it happens, instead of getting into it after it has happened.” Signing Peace Not Enough Calling attention to the fact that he already has made “a practical beginning” on° non-partisan cooperation with Secretary of State Cordell Hull on the Dumbarton Oaks conference to set up an inters national peace organization, Dewey

said signing a peace pact is not enough. - He indorsed the four-power Dum-=-barton Oaks tentative agreement

an executive council on which the oh Four and smaller nations shall be represented. “This world organization should develop effective co-operative means to prevent or repel military aggression, and such means should include the use of force as well as the mobilization of international opinion, or moral pressure and economic sanctions,” he said. “There should be a world court to deal with justifiable disputes.”

Must Be Fair, Upright “But,” he added, “even this is not enough. . , . We must be fair and upright in our dealings with

the smaller nations, . . . “We Americans and a few strong friends must not assume the right to rule the world. It is the obligation of the mighty to make common cause with the less powerful in the interest- of justice and peace.” Then he injected the only political note of his half-hour speech. Referring to the need for continuing international co-operation to “get along with’ our neighbors” he asserted: “By this I do not mean getting along by the philosophy of the Washington wasters. They have been proposing that America should try to buy the good will of the world out of the goods and labor of the American people. . . . That is no lasting way to win friends or to influence people.”

Pledges American Aid

Dewey pledged that the American people will help liberated peoples ‘through their period of crisis. “We can and we will seek to work out conditions that will lead to an ever wider exchange of goods and services without injury to our own people,” he promised. “Beyond that, we know that we shall be able to help in keeping this long peace we pray for, only if we are strong at home.” Dewey said - that complete and crushing victory over Germany and Japan must be followed by complete disarmament of both aggressor nations and punishment of high and low international ‘criminals in both countries.

GOVERNOR WARREN of California (Dewey wanted him for hig running mate, you remember) is telegraphing California Republicans in congress, asking support for unemployment compensation for federal employees. All 10 Republican members of house ways and means committee denounced senate bill containing this provision, ine dorsed house bill omitting it.

C. I. O, were not “organizing” the steel and auto workers with

their violent insurrections against the authority of government but dragooning captives into their ranks by terror and bloodshed in connivance with the New Deal and its satellite governors in the states and mayors in the cities. This education pioneering took editorial courage because it was difficult to convince the people

for an international assembly with} that the workers, themselves, and.

the whole community, were victims of such unionism. Many other editors printed this touchy material but Mr. Howard's position was special. He was the sponsor and carried the target. Most of the workers did want union representation but it was not necessary for them to sacrifice the enormous loot, amounting by now to thousands of millions, or abandon so many of their rights as human beings and citizens, to obtain this -representation. The power of the unions was and remains great. They can declare, if they cannot always enforce, boycotts against a paper and its advertisers and have

repeatedly tried it. Many of them *

are in conspiracy with the national government, with tricky and unscrupulous friends planted in positions of public power who can harass anfl hurt an opponent.

$40,000 Lost

THERE ARE insinuations that Mr. Howard was intimidated by the New Deal and the unions. Had that been so, he would not have asked me to come in and discuss a new contract. This was his chance to be rid of me, al-

together. I recall just one actual threat of financial pressure and I did not even hear of that until months later and then only in casual and bantering conversation with a friend in the advertising department. He sald that the Italian line had withdrawn its steamship advertising long before and that the paper had lost $40,000 in revenues because of something I had written about Mussolini. Mr. Howard, if he knew about

it, never even mentioned it to me. -
