MINISTER DECRYS'

Archbishop OF Detroit Ex-
presses Surprise And
Regret At Raid

DETROIT, July 20.-tREAssert-
ing that the war must be won in
the hearts and minds Of men as
well as on land, on sea and in
the air, the Most Rev. Edward
Mooney, archbishop of Detroit,
expressed surprise and regret
today that Allied military authori-
ties had taken the moral risk in
volved in the recent bombing Of
Rome.
At the same time, the archbish-
op, who is chairman Of the ad-
ministrative board of the National
Catholic Welfare Conference, said
the Italian government could have
prevented the danger to Rome's
priceless monuments Of religion
and culture" had it declared Rome
an open city and acted Sin sim

ration"

military objectives in the imme-
diate vicinity of the eternal city.
''No one," said Archbishop Moo
ney, "can fail to be impressed
by the elaborate precautions which
our military authorities took to
avoid damaging what all men OF
culture hold dear and hundreds
of millions of Christians hold sa-

But with full weight given to
these considerations, the sense of
surprise and regret remains. The
city of Rome is the Episcopal See

man on earth, worked and prayed
and pleaded to save mankind from

RUSSIANS OPEN
$50 mile FRONT
Continued From Page One)

another front continued boiling as
the Russians counter-at attacked in
the Belgorod area and scored ad-
vances of from six to eight miles,
the war bulletin said.
Hinting at intensification of the
offensive on the spraWling front,
the communique declared that ''in
the southern Donets basin south of
Izyum and southwest of Voroshil-
ovrad, engagements of local char
acter broke out. They have the
tendency to grow into serious bat
ties"
Without declaring specifical ally
where the breach occurred, the
war bulletin said that Red army
forces had stormed across the
northern Donets river and the riv-
er Mus, considerably improving
their positions"
In the Donets basin the Ger
mans last spring drove deep back
into the rich industrial area to
take Slavyansk and Kharkov and
set up strong defense lines along
the west bank of the river.
Scores of efforts to probe the
Russian defenses along that line,
however, were futile. The Rus
slams held, making occasional fo-
rays of their own across the
stream but never attempting to
gain more than bridgeheads for
reconnaissance.

The visitor did not dwell at
length on Tobruk. '1t was a good
show he felt. The German planes
furnishing target for the anti-air-
craft troops under his command
were able ships, he thought. He
didn't minimize the strength of
the enemy.
The current turn of the war
pleases him, of course. And he
had praise for tn harmonious

Comparing the two conflicts of

that this one was far less bloody.
