ments."

termine the type of plane that

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y,
Aug. 25-CUPl - The New York
State gubernatorial campaign, with
its important bearing on the 1914
presidential sweepstakes. was under
way today. Thomas E. Dewey, the
Republican candidate, opened it be-
fore the convention which r'omi-
mated him last night with a pledge
of loyalty to "the commander-in-

Followers of Wendell L. Willkie
were none too happy over events,
despite the fact that the state
platform embodied Wilkes struc-
lures against appeasement in the
conduct of the war and ISOLATION
ism after the war. They fear that
Dewey. if elected. will be Wilkes
rival for the 1914 Republican presi-
dental nomination. and most po-
tout ono with Nov York State

Prison or GaIIows
For German Spy
After Conviction

NEWARK. N. J.. Aug. 25-CUP)-
Karl Friedrich Bahr. %, having
been convicted as a Nazi spy. was
bound today for the gallows or up
to 80 years in prison.
He will learn on Sept. whether
he is to be hanged or sent to prison.
Federal Judge William E Smith
seemed to indicate the gallows last
night when he reminded a jury of
housewives to deliberate carefully
because spying is a capital offense
in wartime.
Mrs. Bahr. who had not seen him
from 1888, when he went to Ger
many as an exchange student, until
six days ago, when his trial began,
sobbed when the foreman of the
jury, Mrs. c. NJ. Schmidt. almost
crying herself, said:
I'VE find the defendant guilty
Bahr, dressed in the S100 suit the
Gestapo had bought him in Lisbon,
blinked.
Bahr, posing as a refugee, ar
rived in the United States on June
80 with $40 other Americans and
aliens on the liner Drottningholm.
But Bahr never got off the Drott-
ningholm, except in handouts. He
confessed to the federal bureau of
investigation that the Gestapo had
given him $1,000 and a rigid train
ing course, and sent him to the Un-
tied States as an agent.
He showed FBI agents two pieces
of cotton, which he was to have
soaked in water to produce an in
visible ink with which to send in
formation back to Germany.

Minister Winston Churchill from
Moscow-hints that action to aid
Russia will be soon forthcoming.
The Royal Air Force made another
of its great night attacks on the
Rhine cities of Frankfurt and Wies-
baden.
DESPERATE ATTEMPT
The Nazi high command was
throwing the full weight of hun
dreds of thousands Of troops into
a desperate attempt to break the
Red army lines in south Russia.
One big German tank wedge near
KotelnikovSki on the Stalingrad
front was squashed by hardhitting
Soviet counterattacks, but other
strong Nazi forces were pressing
closer to the big Russian industrial
and communications center.
The Russians admitted that the
Germans now are across the great
bend of the Don in strong force
and are advancing toward the Stall
ingrad- -Volga line. The Stalingrad-
Vilga railroad already is virtually
useless to the Russians because of
Nazi artillery fire and air bonn
bardment.
WITHIN 80 MILES
The exact depth Of the Nazi pen
etration toward Stalingrad was not
specified by Moscow but it was
known that the Germans were closer
than 40 miles from the city prob
ably only 25 or 80 miles.
The German advance into the
Caucasus was proceeding with un-
abated vigor one Nazi column was
within IS miles of the important
Grozny oil fields at Prokhladnevski
and another was threatening tn
Black sea naval base Of Novorossisk.
After the return of Prime Minister
Winston Churchill 70 London from
his extended trip 10 the Middle East
and Moscow, reports circulated tnat
Churchill and Saln reached a full
agreement on second front plane.
The word also went the rounds
that action by the Allies to aid Rus
sia may be- imminent II was sug-
gestcd in some quarters that Stain
has massed a powerful reserve army
back of Stalingrad ready TO strike
at the Nazis if and when a second
