Newell, Smolensk and Zhitomir, in
dicated there had been no significant
change on the long front facing
Germany.
The Red Army's stand on the CEN
trail sector was pictured as the most
brilliant resistance of the war, and
Russian troops were said to be still
holding ON grimly in the Smolensk
sector week after the Germans
struck in that direction.
The German radio today re-
peated the claim that Smolensk
has been in Nazi possession since
July Is and said order has now
been fully restored there" The
British radio. however, declared
there is every reason to believe
that Smolensk Is still in Russian

German pressure appeared to
have been relaxed on the northern

No major action was reported there

heavy losses on them"

In the southern zone, however
heavy combat was said to be con-
tinuing in the region of zhito-
mir and along the Bessarabian bor-
der, west and South Of Kiev, cap
ital of the Ukraine.
Thwarted in attempts to burn
Moscow in the first two nights OF
air bombardment, the German
raiders dropped more explosives
than incendiaries last night.
Otherwise the precise, clocklike
schedule of the previous nights was
repeated.
AS though automatically, the
bombers came with sunset and de-
parted with sunrise.
But again the raiders encountered
strong Russian defenses.
Anti-aircraft batteries hurled q
screen of flashing shells into the
starlit sky between the long fingers
of the searchlights.
Morale Remains High.
The morale of the capital re-
mained high. The populace Is
growing accustomed to the regular
raids and is taking bedding to sub
way stations and shelters and spend
ing the nights there.
Though approximately $50 planes
were estimated to have taken part
in last nights assault, authorized
sources said only a few had pene-
trated the curtain Of steel flung
by anti-aircraft defenses and de-
clared no military objectives had
been hit.
Some casualties were acknowl-
edged, but many of the bombs were
said to have been dropped "at ran
dom" on the outskirts Of the city.
A number Of the raiders were re-
ported shot down by ground bat
teries and night fighters, which
were credited with destroying some
10 per cent of the Nazi aircraft

LOS ANGELES, July 24.-"Wash-
ington is in confusion,
our defense program is in danger,
Wendell L. Willkie told 10000 per-
sons at a meeting for national unity
last night.
But the remedy is not to obstruct
the defense program. The remedy
is not to hang back, or 70
oppose those larger aims which are
involved in such moves as that
which we have undertaken in Ice

opposite OF that.

And we must get the kind of man.
agement we want, not through petty
criticism, but through the applica
ton of the enormous pressure of
American public opinion, insisting
that a good job be done. The
cure for a bad defense program
is not more opposition, but more
support"
Three Minute Ovation.
Mr.. Willkie spoke in Hollywood
Bowl. AS he was introduced, the
crowd revived his presidential cam
paign cry of last fall. I'VE Want
Willkie!" 1t gave him a three
minute ovation
Mr.. Willkie criticized the admin
istration, freely, but he digressec
from his prepared speech to de-
clare:
"Of late we have heard some men
say the President acts through ig-
noble motives. No man ever tried
so hard as 1 did to remove the
President from Office But
I repudiate utterly any notion that
in this most critical hour of the
country's history that Franklin
Roosevelt is acting with any sinister
purpose.
Franklin Roosevelt may oe mis-
taken in some of his actions. but
no American citizen sitting in his
place would do other than pray and
work for the preservation of the
freedom of America"

Other southern Finnish cities also

were trapped in pincer and tried
TO escape by water, embarking in
boats OF al sizes, some OF which still
are trying to reach the north shore
Of the lake. German planes bombed
and mact7ine-gunned them through
out the day, 1t said.
Dispatches telling Of this phase
Of the struggle were coupled with
reports Of adverse weather delaying
the drive on the Ukrsnian capital
Of Kiev, further south.
Rainstorms of cloudburst dimen-
etons were said TO have turned the
highways west OF Kiev-at the best
none to good-into q gluey sea of
mud, impeding the movement OF
trucks, heavy artillery and other es-
sential equipment.
Military commentators, writing in
Berlin newspapers, made much of
the unusual military tasks" con-
fronting the German soldiers in the
Smolensk sector west of Moscow.
The Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung
said the advance of panzer units
kninng through the Russian lines
toward the Soviet capital. had
created 4 fighting front in this sector
more than 95 miles deep
Red Position Held Hopeless.
German infantry, following in the
path Of the armored forces, was said
to be confronted with the task OF
noppine up centers Of Russian re-
sistance which the panzers failed tt
destroy.
The papers military commentator
did not disguise the seriousness Of
these operations, which was en-
hanced by the reported arrival oi
fresh reserves from Moscow, but de-
elared the Russian position wa'
hopeless"
While bitter fighting ragged al
,,along front. the German air force
was reported dealing devastating
blows to Russian communication
far behind the lines.
:. Raids on Moscow were said tt
have destroyed depots and railway

could be made sanitary and given
to those needing the same. Such
goods would make these people

not undermine the character OF 90

The trade-in idea Is simple. Our
federal government would have
way for producing increased con-
sumption OF finished goods as the
need arose simply by increasing
the allowance for such used goo&
offered for trade-in. Then, in in
flationary times when our govern
ment wishes TO discourage trade,
il could lower or remove altogether
the trade allowances. This would
provide employers, wage workers,
