The War On Many Fronts

U. s. Eighth Air Force heavy bombers, grounded since their raid on a German metal plant near Cologne on October 20, returned to the attack from Britain today. Two big formations struck out over north ern France and Cairo dispatches said targets in the Paris and Brest areas had been hit.
 On the blazing battlefront in southern Russia, a major disaster threatened to engulf the fleeing Ger man armies In a matter of days. Cos sack horsemen pounded across the Nogaisk steppes, sweeping disor- ganized remnants of the beaten Ger man armies into the gerat waste land bordering the Dnieper estuary.
 The battered Germans put up a desperate rear-guard action in the by-passed region below Nikopol in an effort to cover the evacuation of the bulk of their forces across the low Dnieper, but even in this area the Red Army was advancing re- lentlessly and large part of the 1Ndlk drIIlACS SSClue0 hoOiiiSS'
 Meanwhile, Soviet big guns laid a crushing barrage across the lower Dnieper on both sides of captured Kakhova in apparent preparation for a new thrust to the north that would close the trap on hundreds of thousands of Germans in the Dnieper bulge.
 Only at Krivoi Rog were the Ger mans maintaining 0 determined front, counter attacking repeatedly in an effort to hold open that north ern end of the 55-mile escape corri- dor through which their armies must retreat to the west.
 Increasing difficulties also faced the Germans in the Balkans, where partisan forces inflicted heavy cas- ualties on Nazl and Satellite col umns in battles along the central rail lines leading to Sarajevo and on the Dalmatian coast.
 American and British bombers aided the guerrillas with raids on German positions on the Peljeshac peninsula and on enemy troop con- centrations around the big Adriatic port of Dugrovnik.

the evil, the board of trade recently increased the permitted manufac- ture of cosmetics to 50 per cent of pre-war figures and issued an order requiring all labels on beauty prep- arations to show the exact ingred- tents and carry the name and ad- dress of the manufacturer.
 ! Another racket that is still giving authorities a good stiff headache is the no-coupon clothes gyp which flourishes on stolen goods. Thou sands of yards of cloth, rolls of rayon fabrics, large quantities of leather, hundreds of lengths of mems suitings, underwear and stockings have been reported lost or stolen. Most of this is peddled by racketeers.
 Another unsavory by-product oi rationing involves selling children: clothing coupons for cash. There are parents who go into pubs" ant auction off their kids coupons t. the highest bidders. This causeG considerable concern among wei fare workers and school teachers irs some of the poorer neighborhoods as it means that many children vii be inadequately clothed and sho, this winter.

Demand By De GauAIe

Algiers, Nov. 3-OUP) - Gen. Charles De Gaulle, co-president of the French National committee of liberation, demanded today that France be given an equal role with ss,e other major Allied powers in ...1e settlement of world issues aris- xfx out of the war
 'FE.ager (French) units are ready Co make the enemy again feel the force of French arms on land and sea and in the air." he said.
 It was expected that De Gaulle's demands would be taken up by the consultative assembly and that the latter body would draft a resolution calling on the United States, Britain and Russia to give France a place on the London commission.
 De Gaulle in his opening address characterized the assembly as "noth- ing more or less than the ressurec- ton of French representative insti- tutions."
 Speaking at the opening session of the French consultative assembly in Algiers, De Gaulle declared that failure by the Allies of recognize French rights and dignity would be an injustice" and mistake"
 "The committee of national lber- ation now claims the right to present with the great nations the solutions which France judges necessary to a settlement of this war and the or- ganizat.on of the world to come.' he said.
 France, he said, must resume her great international role.'
 De Gaulle,s demand for an equal voice in the peace settlement was the first official French expression of resentment at the decision reached by the tri-power conferees in Moscow last week to limit par ticipat.on in the European advisory commission to the United States, Great Britain and Russia.
 He emphasized the part being talk CT by French fighting units in the present conflict to support his de- nnand for representation on the AL led high councils.

RUOCCO DIVORCE
 CASE CONTINUED
Evidence Presented to Date Held Insufficient,
 Rules Judge Cornell

A continuance was granted in the divorce action brought by Freda J. Ruocco of Waterbury against Ralph Ruocco, also of this city, after Su- perior Court Judge John A. Cornell stated the decree could not be grant, ed on the basis of evidence heard today and counsel for the plaintiff asked for time to produce additional witnesses.
 Judge Cornell said he recognized the horrible situation" of both par ties but did not feel the issues raised were sufficient to warrant 8 decree. He pointed out that the plaintiffs case was based on testi- money of relatives and no outsider was called to substantiate that in- cidents of cruelty occ occurred as claimed by the plaitniff.
 Several plaintiffs witnesses who were Subpoened were not called to the stand and counsel for the defense stated apparently disagree ment existed on the type of evidence they could offer. One of the two lawyers for the plaintiff remarked that he wanted to call the witnesses but the other lawyer would not per- init it.
 Judge Cornell granted an indefin- ite continuance but said the court would view the additional testimony with caution. He said he does ap- prove of the practice usually as the plaintiff under such procedure can look for witnesses to give the type of testimony that was obviously lacking during the original hear ing.
 The couple married in 1899 in Vir- ginia and are the parents of two children.

London.-Several illegitimate off, spring-by greed out of war-are bedeviling British authorities con- cerned with fair-to-all functioning of rationing. These are rackets and black marketing difficult to scotch because of the support given them by a thoughtless section of the public.
 Until recently, "beauty-legging" was one of the most insidious of these, dating from 1941, when pro- duction of all cosmetics was slashed 70 per cent. Plying their trade chiefly at factory gates, the racket eers sold shoe polish as mascara, crude oils and animal fats as face creams, unrefined chemicals (in- cluding by-products of the leather industry) as skin tonics and makeup foundations, lacquer paint as nail polish and mixtures of chalk and ground rice as face powder.
 These beauty aids" were gener- ally made with filthy utensils in dirty back kitchens, and the result was that women who used them risked their health and many be- came disf1gured for life. To combat
