 CThe London Daily Telegraph quoted Q German New Agency dis. patch .as reporting the Nazi res capture of Chernobyl on the Jeff bank of the Pripet River 57 miles north of Kiev, an indication that the Russians had crossed the Dnieper and pushed IS miles inland from the west bank. Radio Prague said that the Russians had estab- lished at least two bridgeheads on the west bank of the Dnieper.)

NelU Pacific OffensiUe Discussed By Commanders

Washington, Oct. 6. (UP)-The new Pacific offensive which high American naval officers have been planning may be aimed at the Japanese-heid Gilbert Islands, naval experts believed today.
 Admiral Ernest J. King, com- mander- -in-chief of the U. s. fleet, conferred recently with his two top commanders in the Pacific area Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, com- mander-in-chief of the Pacific fleet. and Admiral William F. HaIsey. commander-in-chief of the South Pacific feet, to discus @plans for the Pacific campaign"

The oe- cupation by American troops of Nanumea, northwestern most of the Elllce Kslandn, was one Of these fae- tors. Nanunlea is only about 800 miles fro mTaraWa, chief Japanese base in the 0ilberts.

 Experts believed that a drive to occupy positions in the Gilberts would be an important step in the forging of an Allied ring around Truk. Japan's major naval base out side of the homeland. The solomons and New Guinea are part of this ring. It also would keep the Jap anese occupied in the Pacific and thus help divert them from any ef- forts they might make to interfere with preparations in India for the forthcoming Allied invasion of

 STATE MILK LEGISLATION

Verbal blows against the Connecticut State Milk Ad- ministration were made by Superior Court Judge John A. Cornell today as he irn- posed a suspended one-day Jail sentence against a milk dealer Ihor1 he found guilty of violating the milk laws.
 "The law is socialistic and not in accord with our ideals and institutions" the jurist charged. Tt is an attempt to regulate trade and industry and interfere with an indi- vidual's conduct" he said.
 The remarks were made during the arraignment of Mahmet Tosun, Wolcott milk dealer, whom States Attorney William B. Fitzgerald had charged with violating the state milk control act by filing inaccurate information on prices.
 Assistant States Attorney walter W. smyth, who presented the case, told the court the states attorney believes the accused was trying to comply with the law even though the violation resulted, and reconl- mended Q suspended six-n1onth jail sentence.

w Y. Special Election May Be Test or E.D.R. Strength

Washington, Oct. 6 = )(U.P. - New York's special lieutenant gov- ernorship election is tossing signi- ficant straws in the wind on the question of the comparative vote pulling powers of President Roose- welt and Governor Thomas E. Dewey in their home state.
 There are a good many other fac- tors in the New York political situ- aticn which will rsodify the assur- ance with which next months poll- inf may be accepted as criterion of their political 1t. But the figures will be significant, nevertheless. and lopsided returns either way would mean a great deal.

 For Alleged Draft Dodgers

Washington, Oct, e-CUp)-So9ne administration officials charged to- day that the farms have become a haven for draft dodgers.
 They declined to be quoted for the record, explaining that they feared the congressional farm bloc which forced through the Tydings amendment giving draft exemption to farm workers.
 Meantime, the agriculture depart n1ent released Q report on agricul- talral employment in which 1t said in an accompanying newspaper re- lease:
 Draft deferrnent and other mea- sures taken to conserve agricultur- al labor put 30O,000 more men of military age to work on farms dur ing the first six months of this year than in the same months of i942."'
 These developments came as the Senate prepared to vote late today to substitute restrictions on draft defermentS for federal employees for the bill that would deer pre-war fathers until January 1.
 The substitute, sponsored by Sens. Josiah w. Bailey, D., N. O., and Bennett 0. Clark, D., Mo, has ad- ministration support. Senate Demo- cratic leader Alben w. Barkley of Kentucky, who will vote for 1t, ex- poets 1t to be enacted before ad- 1ournment tonight. That would end Senate debate on the drafting of fathers. but the substitute would still have to be passed by the Huose and approved by the President.
 The Bailey-Clark substitute, which would have virtually no ef- feet on the drafting of 446,00O fath- CTS this year, would:
