Swedish army of Charles XII was
defeated by the Russians under
Peter the Great in 1709.
The city was isolated yesterday
when Red Army forces stormed the
town of Dikana, Is miles to the
north, and Golovach, six miles to
the south. sThe German broadcast
said Nazi troops destroyed all mill
tary installations in Poltava before
they continued their retreat west
ward toward the Dnieper.
With the Red Army charging
forward unchecked along the whole
750-mile front, the Berlin radio said
in monday news bulletin that the
center of gravity had shifted to
southeast of Smolensk, the German
central front bastion.
There, the Germans reported, the
Red Army was storming at Nazi po-
sitions with strong infantry and
tank forces.
Fierce fighting was said to be rag
ing west Of Yelnya, some 20 miles
southeast of Smolensk, and in the
Demidov region, AZ miles north
west of the key center.
Kiev, Russia's fourth largest city
and keystone of the German defense
wall on the Dnieper, was men
aced from three directions as the
Russians continued to roll up VIC
tory after victory.
Demidov, which is 81 miles from
the borders of White Russia, was
stormed by the Russians yesterday
after one of the bloodiest battles
of the Soviet summer drive. It's
capture, after two days OF bitter
fighting, elected special order Of
the day from Premier Stain, who
called the northern bastion "one
of the strongest German defense
centers."
More than 1000 sNazi troops were
killed In the struggle for Demidov,
"a Moscow communique deciared,
after the enemy had launched IL
counter attacks in vain attempts
to hold the city. Three hundred
prisoners were reported taken and
tremendous amounts of war ma
terial seized.
Russian possession of Demidov,
while increasing the danger to Nazi-
held Smolensk, also paves the way
for direct Soviet thrust toward
Vitebsk, so miles due west of Demi-
dov on the Dvina River.

0PA RULINGS
BY ANN STEVICK

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-Import-
ed items such as jewelry and hand
bags are reported selling at fabu-
lous prices to Christmas shoppers
in many areas. Price restrictions
have been set on imports, but Of
flee of Price Administration ex-
perts feel that regulations may be
too liberal on the types Of finished
goods that appear for Christmas
buying.
Importers are permitted to
charge no more than they paid
u foreign markets as of April 80,
1913, plus rs per cent of their nor
NAL mark-up. Al importer starting
new line must have OPA price
approval. Imported cigarette light
ers and bobby pins are among new
importing lines for which request
ed excessive prices have been dis
approved.
TRY THIS FOR SIZING
Great supplies OF new type
starch made from glutinous corn
are reported on their way for tex
tile sizing in 1914. Tests h e
shown that the new starch is equal
to the tapioca starch which it re-
places in sizing, finishing, a n d
printing characteristics. 1t will
take more than starch 10 hold up
the textile supply, however, #
threatened severe shortages actu-
ally develop.
SIGN OF PROGRESS
Now that informal rationing of
some children's garments by deal
ers is in effect, it is consoling to
see some preliminary steps toward
getting loW-cost goods back on
shelves. Manufac turers and retail
ers are being polled to find ex-
actly what is being made and sold.
Results will be tied in with con-
sumner answers to the recent sur
vey of Their most essential needs.
The whole thing should add up to
good basis for a plan to get
most vital goods back on shelves
at reasonably low prices.
ODDS AND ENDS
Manufacturers are already wor-
rying over the day when style
curbs disappear and people refuse
10 buy old stocks of goods because
they want good old pre-war pleats
IN trousers or fullness in skirts :.
CPA points out that stamps D, E,
and F in War Ration Book w
still have the old point values.
There will probably be no change
in stamp values until tokens go
into effect, when all stamps will be
worth 10 points.
