Will Be Placed Where He Can Render Best Serv-
 ice in GIobaI War

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30.- Secre- tary of War Henry L. Stimson said today that any new assignment for Gen. George C. Marshall will be with the idea of putting him where he will do the most good.
 Asked at news conference if he had anything to say on the subject, Stimson replied in formal state ment which follows in part:
 T am in position to say with absolute confidence that whatever duties General Marshall may be hereafter called upon to perform will be decided by the President in a spirit of entire confidence in General Marshall, with the sole pur- pose of placing this supremely able officer of the United States Army in a position where he can render the best service toward the suc- cessful conclusion of this war
 Furthermore the attitude of President Roosevelt toward the Chief of Staff is entirely consistent and in keeping with his attitude in other respects toward all his military advisors in the Army"
 Gen. Marshall has been reported as the likely choice for Global Com over all the American and British forces,

 WITH THE UNITED STATES NAVY ON THE GULF OF SA- LERNO, Sept. 30-The once beauti- ful port of Naples is now ravished city full of horrors created by des- perate German troops, ruling by torture, spreading destruction. ma chine-gunning women and child ren, forcing Italian soldiers and civilians alike to slave in labor bat talions, with death to those who re- fuse.
 This horrible story is brought out from Naples by terrified refugees who escaped on fishing boats, risk ing drowning in the sea rather than face the fury of their one time Ally
 Most of the refugees are not so lucky.
 The Germans tossed hand gren- ades into their boats as they at tempted to slip away in the harbor or their frail craft were machine gunned.
 The aim of the Germans seems to be to infuriate the Italians against the armistice with the United Na- tions and wreak vengeance on the Italian people and destroy Naples as mch as possible so nothing of

UnleaShing concentration QI troops and tanks at the battle ot the Dnieper River, the Germans counterattacked strongly in bid to maintain the bridgeheads on the eastern bank, front line dispatches said
 The Nazis are holding favorable positions and launching ten to twelve counterattacks daily under powerful air support, Pravda re- ported, and at one point the Red Army was put in critical situar tion," but Soviet artillery came to its relief.
 No further progress is reported in the immediate directions of zapor- ozhe and Dneipropetrovsk, the two major objectives on the lower Dnieper.

 The communique added that Rus sian attacks at several points on the west bank of the central Dnieper were frustrated and reported that Russian bombers raided Constanta, a Rumanian Black Sea Port.

HELP WANTED: FEMALE

The G Governm e n wants more stenographers-thousands of them for work in Washington. The Civil Service Commission has sent agents into the field, beating the bushes for new recruits. Any one of the major war agencies could use sev- eral hundred more girls today. But they just aren't to be had.
 Trouble is that girls have come to Washington for the thrill of working in the Capital, and have found that there is less thrill than hard work, and no place to hang up your stock ings to dry.
 They live in what they call "the more-the-merrier apartments, work 48 hours week. and can't even find time to go shopping. They had expected Washington to be roman tic, but there are too many girls in proportion to men, and they never get chance to see the important people who come to town.
 They have trouble with the dry cleaner. eat poor food, and get dates only with the file clerks across the hall. And worst of all. the salary that looked so handsome from a distance melts away into the with holding hands of MT. Morgenthau.
 If stenographer's salary is $1620, plus 21 percent for overtime, the total would be nearly $2000 year, which looks pretty handsome. But

Red Army guns shelled the Ger mans on the high cliffs of Kiev from numerous positions in the suburbs on the eastern bank of the Dnieper. The Russians are in pos session of the entire eastern su- burbs of the city, some of which lies less than a hundred yards across the river.
 They are at the railway and highway bridges on the eastern side where the villages of Posdnyaky, Predmostnaya, Sloboda, and Tru- kanhov Island are all in Kiev's front yard These, just across the river from the city are actually not villages but subdivisions of the city.
 Russian troops are so close to the city in many places they are able to rake the cliffs with machine guns, and snipers are busy picking off unwary Germans. The Soviet forces which have pushed to the, suburbs on the eastern bank of the river are exposed to heavy fire from the natural Qualifications along the towering west bank, the Berlin radio said, and Soviet forces are continu- ing big scale crossing thrusts along the central Dnieper, but gave no revealing reports on the success of the assaults.

Soldiers voie" Will Be Biggest pumpkinin
 Field on EIeciion Day
Last in Series on the Pcacetime Future of World War II Veterans)
By JACK sTINNETT

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30.-If the soldiers and sailors oi World War II are fretting about the kind of peace time America they will have to live in, they can stop it right now and start worrying about what kind of bed they want to make for this nation to sleep in for the next 30 or 40 years
 For just about that long, say poli- lticians here, the soldiers vote' will be the biggest pumpkin in the field.
 Using round figures, the problem is so elementary it wouldn't stump even the youngest political quiz kid. By the next election. there will be 10 to 12 million potential veteran votes" in the armed forces. Sup- pose this voting body could be united on any issue and through family and friends could swing just two or three votes. That would be be- tween 30 and 40 million votes-about 70 per cent of the greatest total popular vote ever cast in this coun- try in a national election tabout 50O0O,00O in the 1940 elections)
 It won't, of course, ever work out that way because the basis of de- mocracy is difference of opinion It will, however, work enough that way that on any issue on which most of the veterans stand united that there will be no doubt about the result.
 The pattern for the political fu- ture already is being drawn. With the next national elections IA months away, the battle for the soldiers vote" has burst with fury
 When President Roosevelt an- nounced his "six points" for demob- ilization and rehabilitation, Repub- lican opponents accused him of making a shameless" bid for the fourth term and counting the soldier vote.
 The storm didn't end there, how ever. Disputes have arisen over di- vision of political time on radio broadcasts, especially those short waved to the four or five million service voters who may be overseas next year; over the right to print stories and statements criticizing the administration and the Presi- dent fwho is also. of course, Com mander-in-C Chief in Army, Navy and Marine camp newspapers; over the extent to which, if any. political addresses can be made to soldiers in camps; over how candidates for Congress are going to make their

The w ashington Merry Go- Round
By DREW PEARSON tMajor Robert .. Alien on active dut,j

WASHINGTON = L e on Tender son, two-fisted father of the Office of Price Administration. recently had a tire blow out on his 1888 jail lopy, filled out all necessary papers for a new tire, took them to his ration board.
 There, the OPA, which Leon ere ated turned him down.
 There are just too many tire certificates already outstanding v OPA explained. and not enough tires. You'll have to wait until there are some new tires"
 This means that what lot of of- ficials long have worried about, has now happened. The hiatus has ar rived between exhaustion of our carefully conserved rubber stockpile and the beginning of synthetic rub Der production.
 Last year, Henderson tells friends, the OPA warned Rubber Czar Jef- fers not to be too generous with new tires, that we would reach a vacuum at the end of 1943 before the new synthetic tires began to roll Hen derson also urged Jeffers to manu- facture more tires from reclaimed rubber, thus saving new rubber.
 But Jeffers listened to politically minded Jesse Jones who was de- voutly anxious to prove that he was not so wrong on rubber. So now the man who advised caution can get no tire for his jallopy.
 NOTE-There is also no rubber for the heels which Leon Tender son now advertises on the air.

 As Clarks troops drove to the southern slopes of vesuvius they began the last stages of the app preach to Naples, around the base of the volcano
 Eisenhower's communique an- nounces the capture of both Pom pei and many towns along the coast.
 Naples, shaken and swept week ty explosions and fires set by Ger man demolition crews and riddled by vengeful machine gun squads. is reported excited by a reign of terror.
 l, Probably the Allied forces are closer to Naples than disclosed as the daily communique usually con- tains no information of operations later than o'clock pm. of the pre- vious day.
 The Cairo radio says the Fifth Army is rapidly investing the city from the south and southwest.
 The German communique said harbor installations have been de- stroyed in an effort to prevent AL lied landings and very severe mea- sures are being taken against Con- munist riots which constantly flare up"
