 He had continued living in the attic while police puzzled over the murder, seeking motive.
 Cornish covered in the attic the night and day after the staying while police swarmed through the house. The first floor was strewn with broken furniture and spatter- ed with blood. Peters body had been discovered on the floor, shat tered cane in his clenched fist.
 "A policeman pushed against the trap door of my nest once." Cornish said, but I held it with all my strength and I guess he thought 1t was solid yOof."

 According to dispatch from w. R. Downs of the United Press, sent from a U. s. Army Air Force fighter station in Britain, American men and machines are streaming" into the Isles. Simultaneously comes announcement of the arrival over seas of four high-ranking Army Air Force generals.
 The air force will be a separate command. manned and directed entirely by Americans, but it will work in the closest collaboration with the Royal Air Force, so that in practice the combined fleets will have the effect of a unit. s
 There can be no question that the British air forces will be far superior numerically to the Ger man. Tn the end it is planned to so outnumber the Germans that the Allied force will dominate the Euro pean skies and literally blast a path for the invading army.

 Hartford, Conn, July 31-(UP)- Father Aleksi Pelypenko, the gov- ernment's star witness in the spy trial of the Rev. Kurt E. B. Molzahn, testified under croSS-examination today he told 8 Baltimore German pastor he was sent to America by the German government to Sork among the UkrainianS here.
 Father Pelypenko, a counter -espi- Onage agent employed by the Fed eral Bureau of Investigation, ad- mitted under questioning by Defense Counsel James w. Carpenter that he gave this information to pastor Fritz Evers, Baltimore minister.
 The priest said he told pastor Evers that the German government had assigned" him to America to work in Ukrainian circles.
 But, said the priest, he never told Rev. Evers the German government was financing him to do this work.
 T did not speak about payment" |" Father Pelypenko said.

In a one-day campaign to gather $50 tons of scrap metal vitally need ed in the war effort, every street in Waterbury will be canvassed to- morrow. The drive will take the form of a scrap metal "raid", and it is hoped that every single bit of old metal will be unearthed from stor- age places and donated.
 Householders are asked to place their gathered metal on the curb in front of their homes. A fleet of trucks, manned by city employees and volunteers, will gather the metal.
 Tomorrow's "raid" will be high ly successful, Chairman J. Warren Upson of the local salvage commit tee predicts.

Text of Decision
 Per Curiam: In these causes mo- tionS for leave to file petitions for habeas corpus were presented to the United States district court for the District of Columbia which en- tered orders denying the motions. Motions for leave to file petitions for habeaS corpus were then pre- sented to this court, and the merits of the applications were fully argued at the special term of court con- vened on July 29, 1942. Counsel for petitioners subsequently, filed a mo- tice of appeal from the order of the district court to the United States court of appeals for the Dis. trlct of Columbia, and they have perfected their appeals to that court. They have presented to this court petitions for writs of certiorari be- fore judgment of the United States court of appeals for the District of Columbia, pursuant to 28 U. s. c, H347 (A). The petitions are grant. ed. In accordance with the stipu. lation between counsel for petitions CTS and for the respondent, the pa- pers filed and argument had in con. nection with the applications for leave to file petitions for habeas corpus, are made applicable to the certiorari proceedings.
 ''The court holds:
 "l. That the charges preferred against petitioners on which they are being tried by military commission appointed by the or der of the President of July 2, 1922, allege an offense or offenseS which the President is :Uth7ri.ad to order tried before a military commission.
 "2. That the military com- mission was lawfully constituted.
 8. That petitioners are held in lawful custody, for trial before the military commission, and have not shown cause for being dis charged by writ of habaes corpus.
 "The motions for leave to file pes tjtions for writs of habeaS corpw are denied.
 'The orders of the district cour> arc affirmed. The mandates are directed to issue forthwith.
 MT. Justice Murphy took no part i'll the consideration or decision c4 these cases"

The Red Army turned back an Axis battering ram attack toward Stalingrad with heavy losses today, but on the 130-mile front south of the river Don the Germans claimed a 112-mile advance toward the oil and rail cen ters of the Caucasus in "pur- suit" of retreating Russian forces.
 Both Moscow and Berlin again repeated the most intense fighting at vital points along the curving battle front of more than 300 miles formed by the Don as it winds from the sea of Azov almost to the Volga. The Russians, in response to Josef q. S.alins order to stand and fight, had slowed or halted the main en- emy push south Kletskaya toward the Volga industrial center on the east, less than 70 miles away.
