 After failing in repeated assaults upon Q village on a river bank in a strategic area of the Izyum- Barvekova battlefront. the Germans attempted one of their psychic at- tacks," the newspaper Pravda said.
 The entire I0ist German division about I6,OOO men--walked in par- ade formation up to the river bank in the face of murderous Russian fire, goosestepping to the barring of a military band as though on review on Unter den Linden.
 The Russians across the river held their fire as the Nazis approached in close formation with the music echoing across the Steppes.
 Then, as the Germans neared the bank, they opened fire.
 'SThere was a deafening roar of canon and clouds of smoke on the opposite bank" 1" said Pravada's front line account. Huge chunks of earth and trees and men flew into the air.
 Under this hurricane fire the Russians then crossed the river and charged with bayonets and hand grenades.
 "The musical show ended badly for the Etage-rnanagers.
 More than 1000 corpses choked the river and filtered the banks"
 Dozens of the German psychic soldiers" of the 101st Division all veterans of the battles of the Don Basin, were said to have deserted to the Russian side.

 Murray replied that Lewis had approved his taking each of the jobs. Murray suggested to some UNIV officials that he be permitted to continue as vice-president with out pay. Subsequent events, how ever, made that appear improbable.
 For one thing, Lewis denunciation of Murray as "iny former friend" left litle probability of g recon- ciliation.
 Lewis never has forgiven Murray's characterization of his January AFL-CIo peace proposal as a Pearl Harhor stab in the back, That re- mark has figured large in discussion of the UMW-CIO dispute.
 A spokesman for the Mine Work CTS said the policy committee would continue discussion today of three issues in the dispute. These are the treason charge, the Umw claim that the C1O owes 1t $l, ,665 900 and the January peace proposal.
 T don't know just when a vote will be taken" the spokesman said, "but 1t is a fair assumption that some action will be taken. That is why we are here"

bag of American and Australian crews to more than 200 since Mac Arthur took command six weeks ago.
 MacArthur's conmunique No. 4l, marking the completion of the six weeks period, said today:
 'New Guinea-Port Moresby: Fife teen zero fighters attempted st-afing attack on an airdrome. Our fighters intercepted, destroying ore and damaging six. One of our planes was reported missing. The enemy attacked again at night without ef- feet"
 Of the planes downed or damaged by the Allies in six weeks, MacAr- thurs communique had claimed l94 specifically.
 Blaney, in his statement, said Australians near potential battle fronts were strangely more compla- cent than those in the country at large who were more conscientious in taking defense precautions.
 War Minister Francis M. Fordc, commenting on Biamey's statement regarding Improvement in the de- fense situation, agreed but said that his heartening news should only enc courage the people to make further sacrifices.
 ''Not an hour must be lost in our preparations to meet Q large scale attack at any tinne," he said.
 Chinese Fighting On

 Numerous Reports
 There had been numerous reports circulating from time to time that pr. Devnis was dead, the last ccm- ing here only two months ago. Last nights news came as Q sudden ell" max to the previous rumors. Mrs. Devnis has aa dno word from her husband since he was taken in custody on their estate in Lithuania soon after the Russian occupation. The first inkling she received that he may be safe came last NovelEl- Der when she received e letter from her mother in KaunaS, Lithuania, who stated that Dr. DeveEliS was q prisoner in Siberia.
 The couple have two sons who are students at the Mount Herman School in Massachusetts and Q daughter who is Q student et Q local public grammar school. Mrs. Devenis is employed in the foreign department of the Scovill Manu- featuring plant in Oakville.

N@SeAbAsaSASNA there is no perfect defense for long coastlines such as this nation has.
 VIII Not Relax
 "But want to assure you we will not relax from our greatest defense he said. That is, preparation for 8 major offensive"
 Asked if he was speaking merely of the west coast, StilnSon said he was speaking of all the coasts. He pointed out, however, that the West coast was closest to Japan. But, he added, there must be no relaxation of the vigilance on the east coast.
 "An attack on Washington is not wholly inconceivable," he said, in reply to @ question.
 Stimson declined to elaborate his reference to preparations for a ma- jor U. S. offensive. He also refused to comment on the possible connec- tion of such an operation with the visit of high ranking U. s. army officers to London.
 Further evidence that this coun- try was preparing for an eventual offensive was seen in Stimson's dis- closure that the army has organ ized an amphibious training com- mand as part of the ground forces.
 Recalling that he has emphasized the vital part amphibious operations are playing in the present conflict, StiYngOn said the creation 0f the training command was in recogni- ton Of this.
 Colonel Fran A. Heating, an inc fantry oflcer and Q member of the general staff corps, was assigned to command amphibious training. Tem porary headquarters for the cotn- mand will be at Camp Edwards,

The chinese resistance at Kinhwm he said, had led the Japanese to send units farther westward to at- tack Lungyu and Tangchi.
 The Chinese offensive ct the other end of the long front was viewed as an all-out attempt by Generalissirno Chiang Kai-Shek's forces to drive the Japanese back beyond the Burmese frontier.
 The Central News Agency said the Yunnan offensive, launched last Saturday, had resulted in the reoccupation of several points" around Lungling and encirclement of the city itself. Lungling, about 70 miles inside Yunnan along tho Burma road, has been the major enemy base for operations in th' Salween river area.

Democratic caucuseS will be held in number of small towns in vest ern Connecticut tonight and tomor- row night.
 Political observers will give special attention to caucus results in Fair field county, where several candi- dates are in the field for the con- gressional nomination and where the prestige of one county leader, Sheriff Edward Platt, has been hit by the jail release scandal at the county jail.
 Bristol Republicans are expected to re-elect Robert J. Stack as chair man of the town committee. Few upsets are looked for in Litchfed County towns, but contests may de- velop in some nearby New Haven county towns.

There have been reports of several small towns "ganging up" to force the nomination of Rep Irving c. Jacocks of Branford for Congress and Selectman Charles Schall of West Haven for county sheriff.
