Soviet-held points, accelerating the complete encirclement of the Ger man Stalingrad armies but front reports said German endorsements had arrived, probably by air, and were offering stubborn resistance at all points, indicating that the enemy had not abandoned hope. There was no evidence of a planned retreat.
 Inside Stalingrad the Russians were pressing back the Germans street-by-street in furious fighting. In the northern section, the enemy exhibited little activity, allowing small Soviet groups to improve their positions. South of the city's center, the Russians overcame fierce resistance, inf1icting substantial losses. In the southwestern sec- tion. the Russians repulsed counter attacks by two German battalions and 30 tanks which fled along the

 German reaction to the Italian situation was seen in Nazi radio propaganda that Pope Plus soon might make representations to bel- ligerent nations against the bomb- ing of civilians-an obvious move intended to quiet Italian nerves.
 The German-controlled Paris Radio first broadcast statement that the Pope was expected to make statement against bombing of civ- ilianS.
 This was followed up by a new statement that according to we'll informed Vatican circles the Pope will soon make representations to belligerents against civilian bomb ings."
 A plain intimation that cam paign of this sort might be started had been contained yesterday in an ostensibly innocent German broad cast.
 Berlin said that British attacks on Turin had caused political circles in Rome" to Ideal again with the question of responsibility for air attacks on open cities" It quoted the Rome newspaper Tevere as quoting statements by Adolph Hit Ter and Hermann Goering against such bombings-the statements hav- ing been made before the German attacks on British cities.
 "The Italian public has learned of rumors that the Pope had taken certain steps with the purpose os terminating this method of war fare" Berlin Radio said. Tt was recalled that Britain had started the bombing of civilians and that the Vatican would therefore know what quarters to approach first.
 Tt was stressed that no power should be expected to make any as- surance regarding cessation of the air war against civilians unless Great Britain had first given ade- quate guarantees"
 Berlin's campaign started at the same time diplomatic quarters heard here that the outlawed Italian So- cialist Party, operating from under ground cells inside Italy, had called on "all free and resolute Italians" for an immediate general deter mined campaign of civil disobed- fence" designed to overthrow the Fascists.
 It was learned that secret Social ist Party agents. at the risk of their lives, were pledged to distribute the manifesto by hand throughout Italy and Britain planned to broadcast it in Italian. It was expected also that British planes would drop the mani- festo in leaflet form in their raids.
 The manifesto urges wrokers to sabotage war production. peasants to refuse to hand over their har- vests to the government. railroad and street car workers. to slow down transport, government employees tS create confusion in their depart ments.
 Civil disobedience does not mean open revolt yet" the manifesto said Tt is bloodless war which every one can wage"
 Urging Italy's secession from the war. the manifesto said:
 Our country Is on the eve of grave and decisive events. Military defeat is in sight. It will bring about what millions of Italians ard- ently await-the end of the despic- able. corrupt, oppressive Fascist re5iune"

proved its construction, and the fact that it had only four exits,
 Fire Raced AiongN
 Other witnesses testified that the fire raced through the decorations and up through the floor between the basement and ground floor with amazing, almost lightning-like speed, and that scores died in an insane stampede for the four narrow exits where their bodies were piled in great heaps,
 It was revealed that Boston has no ordinance with which officials can compel night club operators or the operators of any place of public assembly where no admission charge is made, to use fire-proof decora- tionS, to maintain a sufficient num- Der of exits for rapid and orderly dispersal of patrons, or to mark exits.
 Testimony developed that in addi- tion to being inadequate, the Co., |coanut Groves exits were not marked and large part of the more than 1000 persons in its three lounges and dining room had no idea of where they were,
 Offlcial In Blaze
 The hearing developed that John J. Walsh, executive director of the public safety committee, who was in charge of counting and caring for the bodies, had been in the club when the fire broke out He was entertaining l2 guests and, upon see- ing flames at the other side of the dining room, calmly led his party to safety. The stampede occurred right behind him and from the sidewalk he pulled "25 or 30 people" through the doors. Then they were hopeless jammed by the press of screaming, clawing humanity and no more escaped that way.

 The German-controlled Paris Radio reported that clashes had started on the Fl Agheila line in Libya, 475 miles from Tunisia, and it was believed possible that Gen eral Sir Bernard Montgomery s Eighth Army had opened the att tack which it hopes will hurl back the Germans to Tripoli.

 determination of the trapped German garrisons proceeded system- atcally, but the enemy was cling ing to every line, hamlet and ravine, attempting to stop the process. Red Star said German officers were un- successfully attempting to conceal their flight from the enemy troops,

tions, or Erasmus dealing with ele-
mentary catechism.
1t is pathetic situation, so much
so that you hear some of them
recklessly threatening to forsake the
banalities of the stage and retire
to their sabine farms. But always,
just as the inclination is heightened
by stern resolve, along comes some
thing that challenges the intellect,
engages artistic emotion and stirs
scrupulous fancy-Maxwell Ander-
son, for instance, and his new COM
edy drama, "The Eve of st. Mark"
Definitely, gratitude was ean ele-
ment in the wholesome critical ac-
eeptance of both author and his
product. Here, by all the gods,
was something with which to deal.
Maxwell Anderson makes. any
critic stretch his legs, and perhaps
get his second wind. Whether they
like his play or not, it's definite
call upon their highest critical fac
ulty, and SO Mr.. Anderson is to be
credited for prodding moribund
critics as well as a tagging or
faltering theater.
We remember Max Anderson back
in our earlier newspaper days as
a quiet, rather aloof chap who
wouldn't be suspected of any in
clination to give the hot-foot to
critice or to anybody else. We recall
one thing about him, however, which
may be a clue to the cosmic trend
OF his plays. He had keenly per-
ceptive faculty which made him a
flrst-rate reporter and editorial
writer, and somehow his sights
were always raised to some remote
Implication Of the matter in hand.
His home on the South Mountain
road, in Rockland County, N. Y, is
not only secluded but it is on high
ground, high above mundane things.
You remember, perhaps, that Ibsen's
Master Builder got so high up he
lost touch with the earth. Right
here is the marvel of Max Ander-
sons authentic recording of raffish
pothouse lingo, or the argot of
soldiers and sailors. When some
Frenchman-Taine, I think it was
wondered about Shakespeare ac-
curate ear for tavern talk, he was
reminded that the bard spent. lot
OF time with tosspots Not so with
Mr.. Anderson. He remains in his
ivory tower most cf the time, remote
from colloquialisms.
Just at the moment he Is one of
