quarters staff on the jump, fore
ing them to move seven times

reliable informant from Ger
many who has contacts with
Hitler's bodyguard said today.
This informant said that just be-
fore Hitler went to Munich earlier
this month to address veteran Nazi
party members he had moved his

northeast of the old Polish border.
At no time has Hitler's headquar-

ANKARA, Nov. 20.-The Is

The newspaper added that other

had also been informed on the Tur-

Best judgment on this report is
that it marks no particular advance

Kaiser, Navy Cancel
Contract for Bombers
10 Speed Fighters
Brewster Conversion
To Specialized Output
Will Take About Month
Ey the Associated Press.

| EE lne ASSOClateQ PreSS.
The Navy has Cancelled it's con-
tract with the Brewster Aero
nautical Corp. for the production
of bombers at the request of
Henry ]. Kaiser, the company's
recently named president.
That was disclosed yesterday by
Robert Kline, counsel for the House
Naval Affairs Subcommittee inves-
tigating Brewster affairs.
Mr.. Kline said Mr.. Kaiser made
his request in order to convert
Brewster's production entirely to
fighter planes.
Mr.. Kline quoted his informant as
saying that there could be" some
layoffs in the process of conversion.
He added that the cancellation
would mean Brewster would deliver
68 fewer bombers than contem-
plated.
The Brewster firm also has been
under investigation by the Navy for
failure to meet plane production
schedules.
Layoff Slated.
A spokesman for the company's
plant at townsville, Pa, said it has
not been determined how many EN-.
ployes will be affected. Layoffs, he
added, would be for only a month
or SO, to enable assembly lines to be
rearranged for production of the
Brewster F3A model of the Chance
Vought Corsair fighting plane.
However, a spokesman for Loca
1865, United Automobile Workers
CIO, said he understood up to 1,5O(
workers would be dismissed perma
nently.
John N. Patterson, area director
for the War Manpower Commission
said an Office of the United States
Employment Service would be set ur
l1nmeQlately at tne townsville plant
to find employment for laid of
workers.
Seniority Considered.
Mr. Patterson said seniority rights
would determine which employe.
would be laid off first.

Brewster employees because of the
conversion, but said, Exactly what

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS, Al
gierS, Nov. 20-Breaking through
German forward positions in the
first heavy fighting on the Ital-
ian front in recent days, the
British 9th Army advanced
miles to capture Perano, it was
announced today, thereby threat
ening an important inland sector
of the Nazis' heavily fortified line
behind the Sangro River.
Against heavy artillery fire, bad
weather and difficult terrain, the
American 5th Army also made some
gains above Venafro along the
northern sector of it's front.
The capture of the village of
Perano placed the troops of Gen
Sir Bernard L. Montgomery less than
a mile from the only bridge cross
ing the Sangro River between the
coastal road and point 10 miles
from the Adriatic.
Sharp Enemy Opposition.
From their new vantage points in
and near the village 9th Army units
could look across the river at a short
section OF an extremely important
lateral road on which the Germans
are dependent for supplying large
forces entrenched in the hills over
looking the Sangro.
This road extends from Sanvito
Chietno on the Adriatic coast along
a winding course inland through
CaStelfrentano, Casoli and Palena
to Roccaraso. Along most of its dis
tance it is well behind the river
and screened from the British. but
opposite Perano it loops down into
valley to within less than half a
mile from the stream itself.
All gains were made against sharp
opposition. Big guns on both sides
Kept the 5th Army front ablaze
Heavy rains, deep mud and swirline
floods impeded all operations.
Weather Aids Nazis.
The storm of the last week has
washed out hopes of an Allied entry
into Rome at any time in the near
future, particularly in view of the
time that has been given the Ger
mans to deepen their defenses in the
present winter line to such an extent
that swift exploitation of a break
through at any point would be diff
cult if not impossible.
The capture of Perano yesterday
announced by the Allied communiuue
today, also was important for the 9th
Army because the Nazis had been
using that point as a springboard
for counterattacks. 1t also posed a
threat to Archi, mile and a hal.
to the southwest, and the larger
village of Bomba, four miles farther
up the river. The area of this fight.
