600 invasion troops in eastern China
to the region northwest Of Kinhwa
after being held at virtual stand

vincial capital Of Chekiang prov

Kinhwa still remained in Chinese
hands early today, 1t was stated, de-
spite almost constant attacks by the
10000 Japanese troops left there
when the brunt Of the enemy pres
sure was shifted to the Lanchi sec
tor.
The cities Of Taneki and Kienteh
in the Lanchi sector also are under
attack.
Fighting. IL Furious
The fighting around Lanchi ap-
parently was on the same furious
scale as that at Klnhwa, where the
Chinese met Japanese columns NOV
ing from three directions and killed
an estimated 1920.

regarded as a near-certainty for one
of the important appointments.
Delivery Of forms to be filled out
by landlords has been delayed, Mr..
McDuff said. However, the forms
are expected to be available within
few days. Under the rent con-
troll act, landlords must justify any
rent increases which have been
made effective or which they seek
to place In effect.
Extention Of rent control regula-
tions to hotels, roming houses and
boarding houses has been post
poned to July /, Mr.. McDuff said
today. On the same date, rent con-
troll regulations for dwellings will
become effective in New Haven and
Litchfield county towns not pre-
viously listed.
Mr.. McDuff pointed out that
eviction Of tenants can, after Mon
day, be carried out only in cases in
which the property changes hands
and in which the new owner wishes
TO occupy the property himself.
In an informal opinion on cases
involving tenants who have moved
into property since April ] Of last
year, Mr.. McDuff said that they
should pay only the rent that the
tenants occupying the property
were paying at that time.

TAKES CHARGE

Barvenkova sector 10 miles south
Of Kharkov but Il was indicated
that they had failed to make gains.
Front dispatches said that Ger
man tank losses were SO heavy that
in an increasing number of sectors
the Nazi thrusts were based on In
fantry thrusts.
The Russian noon communique
reported:
Last night on the Izyum- Bar
venkova direction our troops en-
gagged In stubborn battles with
enemy tanks and infantry. In other
sectors there was nothing Of Inn
portance."
A special dispatch said fighting
continued day and night. Along
the general Kharkov front the Ger
mans were counter attacking at
many points and clinging despara-
tely to their isolated pockets Of re-
sistance in others, where the Red
army continued Its persistant fore
ward drives.
It told Of the beating back with
heavy losses Of successive enemy
counter attacks, none Of which
regained for the Germans any Of
the territory they had lost
New Outbreaks
Official dispatches and the mid
night colnrnunique noted new OUT
breaks Of fighting on the Kalinin
front 100 miles northwest Of Mos
COW and farther north toward Len
ingrad.
Hundreds Of Germans were killed
when the Russians, attacking In
the Kalinin region, captured two
villages and with them four trench
mortars, four machine guns, 100,-
600 cartridges, q headquarters WIRE
less transmitter and other war
materials, 1t was said. Three hum
bred Germans were killer IN an
other sector.
Farther to the north the Rus
slams in sharp attack took 90 Ger
man firing points, including forth
fed dugouts.
They killed more than 500 Ger
mans and destroyed a tank, seven
field guns, u machine guns, two
trench mortars and several infan-
try trucks.
In another attack on this zone
the Russians fought their way
across river and held 1t against
seven German counted-attacks in
which the enemy lost 1000 men
killed.
The midnight comAunique said
20 German planes were shot dawn
wednesday against is Russian
planes. In addition Russian fighter
planes shot dawn three Of 20 Ger
man planes which raided Sevasto-
pol In the Chimea.
In general offensive operations

credited with destroying or damag-
ing 80 German tanks, seven field
and anti-aircraft guns, six trench
mortars, 205 troop and supply
trucks and IS ammunition carts,
and with demolishing four railroad

pansion Is taking place within the
air forces, he said, praising Amer
lean airmen as among the finest in
the world.
"They are consumed with deter
mination to carry the fight into
Germany and Japan-the same de-
termination that inspired Jimmy
Doolittle and his gallant band"
Marshall said.
Marshall recalled the difficulties
Of preparing the army In the period
prior to the Japanese attack on
Pearl Harbor.
He told how he used to answer
questions from members Of Con-
gresS as to where American soldiers
might be called on to fight by tell
ing them that 1--WE must be prepared
to fight anywhere and on short
notice."
Americans Everywhere
"The possibilities were not over
drawn" the general said, "for today
we find American soldiers through
out the Pacific, In Burma, China.
and India. They have flown over
Japan. They are landing in England,
and they will land In France. We
are determined that before the sun
sets on this terrible struggle, our
flag will be recognized throughout
the world as q symbol of freedom,
on the one hand, and Of over
whelming power on the other"
Marshall went on to say that the
confusion which existed In the
minds Of many Americans before
Pearl Harbor Is no longer present
and that our people are solidly be-
hind every measure for the prosecu-
ton of the war. This attitude, he
said was exemplified by the mag
nificent fortitude" demonstrated by
the parents and wives of the men
who fought the last ditch battle Of
the Philippines.
"In letters that have come to me
from the mothers or wives Of men
lost in that homeric struggle are my
greatest reinsurance that America
has steeled itself for terrible strug-
gle, with implacable determination
to hammer out complete victory
decisive and final" he said.
Declaring that the nation looks to
Its young men for the energy and
daring to lead the way in great
offensive" Marshall concluded:
mo compromise Is possible, and
the victory Of the demorcacies can
only be complete with the utter de-
feat of the war machines of Ger
many and Japan"

gasoline, water and food columns
They were taking heavy toll Of
German and italian tanks too.
Scores Of enemy vehicles were
wrecked and left flaming In one at
tack on a supply column Of zoo
trucks, dispatches said, and yester-
day alone the British and South
African crews Of the Royal Air
Forces destroyed or damaged II
enemy planes.
Enemy armored forces driving
northeastward in the desert had
reached a point Is miles south of
the British stronghold Of Tobruk
100 miles inside Libya on the coast,
while a second force was held north
east of Biz Hacheim, 40 miles south
west of Tobruk.
Late reports indicated that the
general situation was favorable
partly because Of the severe pun
ishment the air force was melting
to the long supply columns on which
the enemy depends for food, fuel
and water.
Got Jump ON Nazls
1t was disclosed that not only
had Gen. Sir Claude Auchinleck
the British commander, anticipated
the drive by moving up a crack vet
eran armored division to the Bir
Hachein area, but the Royal Air
Force got the jump on the enemy.
Before the Axis forces got near
the British lines, the air force went
into action with everything 1t had.
It has been bombing tank columns,
supply lines and airdromes over an
area Of thousands Of square miles
since without letup.
Though the Axis ar1nored forces
had advanced 80 miles from their
own base lines in the first phase
Of their drive, they had failed up
to today to make any appreciable
progress in the British defense zone.
The enemy push to within IS
miles Of Tobruk was dismissed as
unimportant because there Is no
fixed line In the desert, and tanks
Of either side usually are operating
miles behind the opposing line in
a general melee.
There was still no indication Of
the German strategy or the power
which Gen. Erwin Rommel, the
enemy commander, was able and
willing to put into his drive.
In any event, both the tank forces
and the air forces Of the British
have been strongly reinforced in ex-
pectation Of the attack.
1t was impossible yet to tell the
force of planes which the Germans
were able to command, However, 1t
was noted officially that so far,
since the drive got under way, en-
envy air activity has been surpris-
ingly small.
