Churchill obviously had refer
ence to meeting of himself. Pre-
sident Roosevelt and Premier Jo-
seph Stain when he said today
that it was possible for represen-
tatives of the three powers to "car-
ry their discussions to a point
where the heads of states and gov
ernments may be able to inter
vene."
But speculation here was that
even if representatives begin their
meetings within a month, a meet
ing between the three chiefs of
governments would not be possible
for several months.
1t was reasoned here also that
knotty problems such as establish
ment of the postwar border be-
tween Russia and Poland might be
lroned out during the groundwork

3 MARINES HURT
IN AUTO CRASH
Motorist Seriously Injured
When Car Strikes
Tree In City

Three Marines were seriously
injured around 1915 a. m. Tues
dav when the sedan in which they
were riding left Third street just
inside the city limits at Greenfield
lake and crashed into a tree some
80 feet from the edge of the street,
police reported Tuesday afternoon.
The car, which was completely
demolished, was travelling north
toward the city on the Carolina
Beach road. The accident site, on
the sharp curve leading into the
city has been the scene of numer-
Gus accidents, including several
fatalities.
The injured were listed as:
Cpl. Lou G. Lenconcum, Jr., 25th
Marines, Camp Lejeune.
Walter M. Trcjanowski, 25th Ma
rines, Camp Lejeune.
Cpl Lou C. Lencononcum, Jr.,
25th Marines, Camp Lejeue.
Trojanowski, the driver Of the
car, was the most seriously in
jured of the trio. He suffered
possible fractured skull, possible
internal injuries, fractured tibia
and other injuries.
Lenconcum and billiard received
emergency treatment at James
Walker Memorial hospital and
were later removed to the station
hospital at Camp Davis.
Tojanowski was admitted at the
local hospital where attendants
late Tuesday night said his condi-
ton was critical.
The accident was discovered by
a city radio patrol car.
Investigating officers said that
the automobile in which the three
were riding had folded up like an
accordian'' against the base of the
big cypress.
Because South Front street ap-
parently intersects with South
Third at the site of the accident,
drivers coming into the city on
South Third at night are often
confused by the lights of traffic
moving on South Front, officers
said.

Never before in this war have
the Russians had victories prompt
ing three such orders of the day
in two days.
A daily communique, summar-
izing the victory announcements,
said that the breakthrough result
ing in the fall of Yelnya was along

miles in the final drive, while the
simultaneous advance in the Sevsk
area was along a 60-mile front,
and ploughed through the Nais'

miles.
Moscow dispatches said that the
third drive, sweeping on from Tag

advanced more than half the way
to Mariupol while Cossack horse
men and charging Soviet tanks

Churchill Invites Stain
To Three Pouer Meeting

Great Britain and the Uni te d

Summing up the results of the
Allied thanking movement in North
Africa, the British prime minister
declared:
"Africa is clear. All German and
Italian armies in Africa have been
annihilated, and at least a half a
million prisoners are in our hands.
In brilliant campaign of 80 days,
Sicily, which was defended by over
100000 Axis troops, has been con-
quered.
"Mussolini has been overthroWn.
The war impulse of Italy has been
destroyed and that unhappy coun-
try is paying terrible penalty for
allowing itself to be misled by
false and criminal guides. How
much easier it is to join bad COM
panions than to shake them!"
Churchill declared that "By far
the greater part of the German
airforce has been drawn off from
the Russian front and is being
engaged and worn down with ever
growing intensity, night and day,
by British and American and Ca
madam airmen.''

Two Requirements Sent To
Local Office; Helms
Left In Charge

Two new Navy recruiters report
ed here Tuesday night for duty
with the local recruiting office.
Graeme w. Stewart, Petty Off
Ger First Glass, and Yeoman Bur-
nice Nash, formerly attached to
the Charlotte office will take the
places of Chief R. L. DeLoach
and Yeoman John Belk, who have
been transferred to Charlotte for
duty.
Jesse Helms has been appointed
petty officer in charge Of the sta
ton. This is Helms second tour
of duty here - he was stationed
here last summer and was trans
ferred back to Wilmington on May
a.
Recruiter Stewart will cover the
territory formerly worked by De-
Loach, including Scotland, Robe
son and Columbus counties. He
will follow the same itinerary as
set by DeLoach this summer.
Enlistments in the Navy now
are confined to 17-year-old boys.
The youngsters are being enlisted
here for training in the Nays
Petty Officer Candidate Schools,
which teach SIS different trades.
There are a few vacancies for
skilled men over 80 years of age.
In the past three months, the
Wilmington area has led the state
in per capita enlistments. A total
of 121 seveneen-year-olds were TAX
en- through the local office last
month
Over $500 men have enlisted in
the Navy through the Wilmington
station since Pearl Harbor. On
two individual days in that time
August 8, 1912 and August 8, 1943
over rs men were sworn in dur
ing 24-hour period. All of that
number were volunteers.
1t. Comdr. Charles B. Nicely, Of
ficer-in charge of the States Navy
recruiting service, said in Raleigh
Tuesday that 'the people of
Southeastern North Carolina have
something to be proud Of Their
sons have led the state in the
numbers enlisting each month II
and North Carolina has consist
emily led the entire United States"
The officer asserted that the eff
fects can easily be seen. Visit any

Ration Book 3 Good
If Paper Or Rubber
Stamp Is In Corne,

Ration Book III, which goes in
to use September IL, is valid
whether it bears a paper stamp
or a rubber stamp mark in the
upper right hand corner of the
cover page, officials of the Ra-
tioning board explained Tuesday.
Many inquiries have been made
of the board as to the validity OF
the book if only the rubber ink
mark is fixed in the stamp blank,
it was said.
The officials warned citizens that
the Charlotte OPA mailing office
failed to write the address under
the name of each book owner, and
that the correct address should
be filled in Immediately to pre-
vent permanent loss.
