Kiev railway above that city.
Today's Red army advances
brought the total area recaptured
from the Germans since the be.
ginning of the July IL drive to
more than 10000 square m i e S
along the 600-mile active front.
The new line, still fluid as the
offensive appeared to gain
strength daily, already showed the
recapture of some 230,000 square
miles by the Russians since the
time of the greatest Nazi advanc-
es, which carried to the highwater
mark Of Stalingrad.
Putivl apparently was taken by
the same forces which had driven
down from the north upon Kono-
top to take the rail town of Krolo-
vets on Thursday. Forces which
captured the big German base OF
Sunny, rs miles east of Konotop,
on Thursday plunged ahead west
ward along the Belgorod-Sumy-
Konotop railway to take the large
towns OF Belopole and Vorozhba.
This railway goes on through
Konotop, the main line west to
Kiev and the upper Dnieper, ap.
proximately 100 miles away. The
Germans, falling b C k steadily
since the Russians launched their
current offensive on July u, have
shown no signs of making halt
or determined stand. and under
the heavy Soviet blows still seem
likely to fall back to the Dnieper
line.
To the north the Russians cap
tured 100 populated places in the
important Smolensk sector, h {
daily bulletin said, scoring gains
of from 2 IL to 4 miles, and ir
the central Bryansk area occupied
more than so populated places in
advances of from to miles.

1941, when our armament program
swung into action, the increase IN

billion dollars.

was the subject of Judge j. j.
Burney's message. He pointed out
that the price pressure follows
three trends, pressure for increas-
ed wages, pressure for increased
farm prices, and pressure o r
higher price ceilings.
Dwelling on increase in prices,
he said that few would benefit
and many would suffer. And those
who received increases in wages
would live in a FOOLS paradise
"for which the final day of reck-
oning would be swift and certain. :"
Business would stagnate under
the weight of increased costs and
mounting uncertainties of opera
ton; the result would be financial
chaos" he concluded.
In his discussion of the iii eff
fects of initiation, Leo Sykes NAM
ed the concrete price controls that
will keep initiation in line: prices
of farm products and of raw ma
terials, manufa cturers' and whole
sale and retail prices, wages and
salaries, rents and the prices of
services such as transportation,
and power.

uation is price and wage control.
he emphasized. He advocated ad-
herence to the President seven
point home program by which cit
liens buy bonds, pay taxes will
ingly, pay off debts, provide for
family future with life insurance
and savings, pay no more than
ceiling prices, buy only what is
needed, refuse to profit from the
war.
In the summary words, ]. A.
Allegood, on the topic THE Proof
of the Pudding" advised:
"Just remember that runaway
prices would raise the cost of war,
because the prices for war sup.
plies which our government must
buy would be, far higher. That
would increase the burden of taxes
which all of us, including our
fighting men, would have to pay
TOR many years. 1t would increase
the prices Of our foods to such
a degree that we couldn't afford
to buy many essential foods
our health and spirit to carry on
and to win this war would be i'm.

sideration of these factors surely

channel and the Mediterranean.
That was Killers heyday. His
air-borne troops had struck with
swift success fl m Norway to
Crete. His panzers had punched
through the low countries, driving
the remnants of a beaten Allied
army off the continent with a
speed which startled even t h e
Nazi strategists. They bludgeoned
their way through the Balkans
with clouds of warplanes overhead
and crack Nazi divisions close be-
midland the Allied Dunkeruue
debacle was almost duplicated as
the British fled from Greece.
London shuddered steadily un-
der the brutal nightly blitzing that
many saw as the softening pre-
Jude to invasion. And few felt the
battered British forces could re-
pei it.
linen mistakes appeared in the
victory-drunk Hitler's strategy. His
intuition went astray.
He failed to carry out the in
vasion OF England that might have
spelled a Nazi victory.
Instead, he turned to what look
ed like an easier victory, an in
vasion of Russia. which he inn
agined would fix things up for a
long war with England and her
Allies.
Historians may argue over
whether that was the turning
point, or whether it came half a
year later when he followed the
japanese attack on Pearl Harbor
by declaring war on America, thus
definitely pulling Uncle Sans mil
itary might into the eventual at
tack on his fortress.
