Germans Reported Score Break Through In Crimea Peninsula
 Reds Acknowledge Great Danger

UNDATED, Oct. 29 (P) - Ger man troops are reported to have scored a break-through in the Crimea Peninsula, site of Rus sia's Black Sea naval base at Sebastopol. Other Nazi columns stormed the gates of Rostov on the Don River, in what appear ed to be climactic phase of the battle of the Ukraine.
 Soviet dispatches said Red army engineers are already plant ing death traps and mines in Rostov, preparing to leave the city of half a million, smoking ruin. The main German attack ing column is said to be only ten miles from the center of the big Don River port which guards the northern approach to the Cau- casuS oil fields.
 In Berlin, Nazi military com mentators said once the city has fallen, the way is open for swift armored divisions to strike south toward the nerve center of the oil region, Maikop, ITS miles be- low Rostov.
 The Russian paper Pravda ack nowledged "the great danger" to Moscow, the Donets Basin, Cri- mea and RoStov, but declared that Hitler's prediction of victory before winter has collapsed. Pravda said the Nazi command has thrown almost its entire Ger man land army, arti lery, tanks, and nine-tenths of its air force into the Russian campaign.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27 fPl = President Roosevelt declared to- night that the shooting has start ed" and solemnly called on the nation to he p destroy the Hitler regime, against which he levelled the following formal accusations:
 It has drawn up secret map showing how it intends to obliterate the existing boundary lines of IA South and Central Am erican countries and substitute 5 "vassal states one of which will have dominion lover our great lifeline, the Panama Can al"
 2-It has drafted a detailed plan to wipe out all existing re- ligions, if Hitler wins, and sub stitute an international Nazi church. In place of the Bible, the words of Mein Kampf will be Imposed and enforced as holy writ" and in place of the Cross of Christ, the Swastika and a naked sword will hold sway. The President declared he had docu- ments to prove his words, and a copy of the secret map and de- tailed plan and religion program.
 Pointing to the attacks on Am erican vessels, he asserted "We have wished to avoid shooting, but shooting has started and his tory has recorded who fired the first shot. In the long run, how ever, all that will matter is who fires the last shot"
 Again, he said this nation has stood ready to face the newest and greatest challenge. "We Ann ericans have cleared our decks and have taken our battle sta

 Authoritative quarters in Lon don said the German armies on the central front were still 38 to 40 miles from Moscow at the nearest point but acknowledged in the south that the Nazis are closing in around Rostov and are imminently threatening to over run the entire Donets River in- dus.rial basin.
 Military advices reaching Lon don said the Germans already have succeeded in knocking most of the Basins war foundries out of action, several key points are actually in German hands, and others are isolated by crippled communications lines. The Mos- cow radio, however, insisted that the big industrial city Of Khar- kov, Russia's Pittsburgh of the Ukraine" is still in. Soviet posses sion.
 Official German reports said the city fell Thursday. German front line dispatches said that bad weather is proving power full ally of the Russians but as- serted that the Red armies are already defeated from a military point of view and a break in the weather will bring destruction to the remaining Soviet forces and thus conclude the war in the east according to German plans" :"

That Reading Smile

The Reading smile was an Oft
remarked and important part OF
the Reading personality. 1t was
invariably in evidence at the many
banquets its owner attended as
mayor, as well as when he greeted
beauty winners; bought the first
ticket for charity parties and all
other times when he faced news
paper cameras.
Now it's gone.
At SO. Dick Reading sits for
lornly in the ornate supervisor s
room of the County Building
which was selected for the big
trial because of its size.
A year ago, when he was ex-
amined on the graft charge. the
Reading smile was very much in
evidence.
There were many friends to
greet him, 10 shake his hand, 10
express their confidence in him. A
stranger from another city might
have concluded that the smiling.
half-bald well-dfessed gentleman
getting all this attention was a

stead OF politician accused OF
