UNSUCCESSFUL.
BLOW AT Attn
Highly Flying Bombers /
First Raid Since 0((u- !
pdtion-No Damage

WASHINGTON, Oct. IA - The
Navy Department today reported
that the Japs have attempted 4
bombing of Attn Island, the first
since that Aleutian base was wrest-
ed from the enemy late in May.
A communique, not giving the
date of the raid, said the Japs
flew high over the island, aiming
their bombs at Massacre Bay in
stallations 1t was the first raid
carried out since the American &C
cupation, according to the report
and the bombs were dropped with
out causing damage. N
The American fighting craft flew
up to intercept the bombers and
they were driven off. No planes
were downed
The Jap bombers presumably
came from the enemy base at Para
mushiru, and it is assumed the as
sault is an attempt to halt Ameri-
can raids on that Jap base in the
Kuriles, hit en- various occasions by
American bombers flying the 6j0
nautical mile route from Attn. -

FOUR MAJOR
RUSS CITIES

Soviets Hasten 10 Liberdfe
Kiev Before German
DemoIitions Destroylt

SCOW, Oct. lathe Red
Army, now inside or on the thresh-
old OF four of Russia's largest cities,
Kiev, Gomel, zaporozhe and Melit-
opol. appeared today to be on the
way to winning some OF their great
est victories.
Surging across the mud flats on
the lower Dnieper River, the Soviets
fought their way to Melitopol. a
city of 10000, after breaking the
German hold ON the Molochna
River line.
On the middle Dnieper River, the
Red Army forces, within two miles
Of the Ukrainian capital of Kiev,
fastened in their efforts to take the
city before the Nazis complete their
denlolitions. The capture of Kiev
will be prize of the first order for
the Red Army. At the time of its
capture by the Germans in Septem-
Der, 1941, the population of Kiev
was 100000.
Gomel, at the northern end of
the active front, became battle
ground as the Soviet forces crossed
the Sozh River and reached that
center in White Russia.
The Red Army in the south APP
peared battling for a substantial
prize, that of bottling up in Crimea
the German 18th Army.
Russian frontline dispatches said
no withdrawal appeared underway
and added the Germans main rail-
way communications in the Crimea
are already cut at Melitopol, leaving
the Nazis only a single track line
recently completed farther west to
Kherson to effect evacuation.
A Reuters dispatch from Moscow
received in London said that fresh
divisions of German troops are being
rushed to Kiev in an effort to fend
off the Russian drive.
The dispatch asserted the fighting
about Kiev is the bloodiest since the
battles of Orel and Belgorod last

British and American troops of
Clarks Fifth Army have cracked
the strong German lines along the
Volturno River In a fierce night
attack and early yesterday estab-
lished several armor reinforced
bridgeheads across that most FORM
liable obstacle path.
Clark struck at a time to take
advantage of favorable weather
when dry ground allowed deploy-
ment of his forces after terrific
artillery barrage had softened the
enemys defense positions on the
north bank Of the river.
Engineers Bridge River
Engineers bridged the voIturno
River to get American tanks across
the stream which for days had been
virtually impossible because of high
water, but the Germans rushed fresh
contingents south from the Rome
area In recent days TO meet the
expected attack.
AS the bfltlSn ana Americans
clawed their way UP the steep banks,
fierce fighting ragged up and down
the north side Of the volturno.
Seven German divisions are in the
line across Italy to oppose the Allied
advance.

State Department on

Under Present Strain!
BY JACK sTINNETT

WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-Credit
for successfully steering us through
world affairs or blame for ineptitude
will come to the Department OF
State. not on the basis of what has
happened to date but what happens
from now on.
The State Department building
thanking the White House on the
west, is relic of the last century
It's a gray, towering rococco fire.
trap. It's the ,oldest-fashioned build
ing in Washington and the depart
ment it houses was the same way
when we were plunged into war.
None of our government struc-
ture, our Army, Navy, or State
Department was totally prepared for
global war.
When President Roosevelt started
looking around for men and agencies
on which to place the responsibilities
of our relationship with foreign ma
lions in this struggle, he bypassed
the State Department almost COM
pletely. The Board of Economic
Warfare, many phases of lend-lease,
the Office of Coordinator of Inter-
American Affairs, foreign relief and
rehabilitation, part of the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation, for
eign propaganda (now under OVID
and several other activities all nor
mally would have been State De-
partment activities.
The hidebound structure of the
State Department couldn't possibly
be stretched to include these activi-
ties. New agencies had to be set up
outside, with Secretary of State Hull
and his staff never employing more
than certain advisory and veto pow
erS.
That some sort of blow-up was
coming seemed inevitable to many
observers, but that it was coming
within the department wasn't quite
SO clear. The differences between
Secretary Hull and longtime UNDER
secretary, Sumner Welles, were
fundamental. Primarily they are
the differences between a g-cabin
statesman who has given the best
part of his life to purely domestic
affairs and a polished graduate of
Groton and Harvard who has de.
voted his entire career to the frock
coated diplomacy which is bound up
in generations OF State Department
tradition
Nor was there ever any doubt
when the showdown came which
man would have to go. To sacrifice
and court the enmity of a man who
commands the public and Con-
gressional respect that Secretary
Hull does would have been an i'm
thinkable Administrator error.

Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON
,us,or Robert .. Allen on active dutyJ


WASHINGTON-Big Bill LETTERS
has left town, giving the impression
That all is we'll with rubber, but the
pinch in production OF new syntneIic
rubber tires has already begun.
letters did not disclose that ac-
mai production of tires is falling 81
per cent behind schedule. The syn
thetic rubber is coming out in good
quantity, but the job OF converting
that rubber into tires is Tagging
dangerously.
Exact figures cannot be disclosed
for reasons of security, but offic-
ials here do not conceal the fact
that the production Of tires, montn
by month, is only SO to 60 per cent
of the estimates of the Rubber d.
rector's Office.
SYNTHETIC rubber began coming
out of the factories around January
and all new tires for civilian puf-
noses have been made OF wholly
synthetic rubber since the first OF
April.
But there are severe shortages OF
fabric material. tire-making equip
ment. and manpower. These short
ages, rather than rubber, are hold
ing back new tires.
This is why OPA has denied most
motorists the right to buy new tires.
Until few days ago, anybody who
drove as much as al miles a month
tonly 8 miles day. could get a
certificate for new tire If an Old
tire wore out.
Now the figure has been tipped
to COL miles month. This means
that IS per cent of U. g. cars VIII
be eligible for only grade three"
or used tires.
Dealers today have working IN
ventories, of new tires amounting
to only one million, as against
desired figure of four million, ana
normal peacetime figure OF 10
million.
NOTE-Most serious is the Truck
tire situation. Current require
ments call for 10000 new truck
tires per month, but spokesman Tor
the industry warn that not more
than 100000 should be expected.
