The line now was within artillery

CHIEF OF ACTION
The chief action on the Fifth
army front centered in the vicinity
of Toano, a broad junction four
miles north of Sparanise, which the
Germans were defending with vigor
Although they drove their wedge
deeper into the German positions,
the Americans had not reached the
town, which lies just under the

Bitter fighting was reported on
the Eighth army front where the
British and Canadian forces were
seeking to exploit a two-mlle
bridgehead which they held north
of the Trigno river.
The Eighth was pushing toward
San Salvo, which is held by the
Nazis, and engagements on a sub
stantial scale were reported Just
southeast of the town in the
Adriatic coastal sector.
To the west OF the San Salvo area
the Eighth had not yet reached the
Trigno, but the latest advances
Strengthened out the front and

The OPA regulation, it was point

fact that nature does not turn out

a crate containing lesser amount.
The growers are all supposed to
have the same chance.

them and at the same time comply
