BALTIMORE, July 1.-THE Ca
tholic church in Baltimore has no
objection to women coming to mass
bare-legged-and as far as Arch
bishop Curley is concerned, it's all
right If they come in their bare feet.
A report from the Vatican said
that women were allowed now to
enter st. Peters Cathedral in Rome
without wearing stockings.
II don't care If they come to us
in their bare feet" Archbishop Cur
ley said. They did it in Biblical
days, and poor people in Europe
still do it,"
The leg-painting vogue, spurred
on by hot weather and soaring prices
Of silk and nylon, has attracted no
attention, either, from the Catholic
Church here.
II don't bother with those things"
said Archbishop Curley. The i'm
portant thing is that people come to
mass to worship their God"

bridgeheads across the upper Don
in that vicinity, but the bulk Of the
forces have been stalled on the west
side of the stream for nearly week.
Pravda said the Tooth German In
fantry Division appeared before
Voronezh after moving up through
Warsaw and Kursk. The troops
were declared nearly exhausted by
the Red Army resistance and were
being reinforced by bicycle units
from Kharkov.
The appearance of the Tooth Di-
vision meant at least 13 German di-
visions, beside mixtures of Balkan
puppet troops, were near Voronezh.
Pravda said Russia has supreme
confidence In the .steadfastness Of
the Soviet forces"
The Russians have frustrated
more than once the Hitlerite plans,
and will Illustrate this plan,' the
newspaper said. I'VE have all the
possibilities not only of holding the
enemy but of routing, exhausting
and crushing him"
Vast Defense Area.
Other reports in the military
press said the Russians during the
bitter winter had constructed a vast
defense area of steel and concrete,
the aim of which was to exhaust
rather than completely check the
Germans.
The defense area was said to
extend nearly 1000 miles to a depth
Of 100 miles following a general line
from Lake Ladoga, through Kalnin,
Moscow, Ryazan and Voronezh
From that imperiled city, the line
was reported to follow the Don,
sealing of the northern approaches
to the Caucasus.
II the report was correct, the
Germans were near the new defense
system where their armies had
reached the Don, and perhaps in
the extreme north near Kalinin and
Leningrad.
The Russians also were reported
to have developed effective new
weapons during the winter, includ-
ing the massive 52-ton XIV" tanks,
automatic e-throwers and field
cannon with initial velocities so
great that they could be used
against tanks. A new mortar which
huris shells 5 miles also was re-
ported in use.
Telling OF the intense fighting
near Voronezh, front-line dispatches
said one German division with
nearly 100 tanks had been cut off
from the main army and was being
exposed to deadly ross-fire on its
flanks. This obviously was one of
the units that forced its way to the
east bank of the Don. The dispatch
said reinforcements were sent across
the river to help the isolated divi-
sion, but they were hurled back by
Russian artillery, infantry and
aviation.
Sharp fighting continued In the
Kalinin sector northwest of Moscow,
where communique said the
enemy was hurled out OF a pop
ulated place and left hundreds of
dead on the field" There was no
indication of general offensive
there, however.
Dispatches from Kalinin said
many villages exchanged hands sew
eral times. The Germans in one
sector moved some tanks into the
depths Of the Russian defenses de-
spite heavy losses. Most military
observers thought the Germans
either were feeling out Russian
strength or attempting to prevent
the possible transfer of Red troops
to other fronts.

They were saying, "It's coming. Get
ready"
We didn't take the war seriously
enough. We thought it couldn't hap
pen, or if it could happen there was
plenty Of time.
Well, out of clear blue sky in
which ut couldn't happen" it DID
happen and Pearl Harbor was written
into our history books on a flaming
page in which the great glory of he
roic sacrifice does not blot out the
terrible story Of unreadiness.
But now we KNOW what we have
to do-and America will do it!
Once upon time the Barbary Pi-
rates were told that we would give
millions for defense, but not cent
for tribute"
