'kazis Desperately
Reinforce Men in
Area Around OreI

MOSCOW, July 3O-CUP)
-NaZi Marshal Gunther Won
Kluge threw armored and air
reinfOrcements into the bat
tie of Orel today in a des-
perate effort to keep the walls of
the battered German salient from
caving in under the impact of Rus
sian attacks on three sides.
Earlier dispatches had said the
Germans were pulling out from
some sectors of the bulge contain
ing an estimated 100000 troops.
but latest word from the front said
the Nazi command had ordered
Orel held at all cost to avoid
unhinging the central and southern
fronts.
Big tank battles were reported
raging north and south of Orel
The Germans hurled their armor
at the advancing Russians in a bid
to stabilize their flank positions.
Red Army tanks accepted the
challenge, and the armored units
wallowed through boggy fields in
deadly combat.
KEY BATTLE
One armored battle revolved
around an unidentified village
which a front dispatch said the
Germans considered the key to
their defenses in that area. An
other was in progress along the
east bank of a narrow stream south
of Orel, where German armor was
trying to crush a Soviet bridgehead
on the southern approaches to the
city.
The Germans were reported to
have brought up fresh battalions
from France and Germany itself in
frantic effort to save Orel, key
stone of the central and southern
fronts, but the Soviet high COM
mand announded gains of three
to six miles and capture of over 40
more towns and villages on the
citys defense perimeter yesterday.
More than $500 German troops
were killed around Orel, COM
mrnique reported.
Particularly heavy battles were
raging south of Orel, where the
crack German second tank army
under Col Gen. Walter Model was
hammering small bridgehead
which the Russians established on
the west bank of river on the
city's approaches after a three-day
battle.
The army organ Red Star report
ed from the front that Model, or
taking command July Ia, issued al
order of the day calling on his mer
to fight to the end to prevent the
loss of Orel.
The Russians, in forcing the river
killed 400 of the enemy and cap
tured a strong point, l6 ammuni-
ton dumps and other booty and
prisoners.
In another sector south of Orel
the Russians killed l,500 Germans
and wrecked eight tanks, AZ trucks
and five artillery and eight mortar
batteries.

COMMUNIzE u. S. MEDICINE?
Nen York Daily NeuCS

Senators Robert F. Wagner (D-N. y
and James +. Murray (D-Mont) have III
troduced in the senate a bill to broaden,
the Social Security Act. Now exempt
from this acts old age pension and un-
employment insurance benefits are do
mestic and farm workers, sailors, employ
ees of religious and charitable institu-
tions, public servants, and several small
er groups.
That these groups should be brought
inside the act has long seemed obvious
to us. These people are as subject as
anybody else to the usual human disablll-
ties and misfortunes.
But Senators Wagner and Murray go
on from here to add to their bell detail
ed plan for bringing State Medicine to
the United States. Federal Government
Medicine is the more accurate term for
it. since the whole system would be run
from Washington by the u. S. Surgeon
General.
Social Security taxes on both employ
ers and employees wiuld be steeply in
creased to begin with. They would go
to percent of wages up to $4,000 year
from each Of these parties, as against the
present l per cent from employees and a
percent from employers. Add to that
your 20 percent withholding tax
One-fourth of the revenue raised would
90 to finance the Federal Government
Medicine SyStem-an estimated S3,OOO,-
100000 year.
With this money, the Surgeon General
would be required to arrange tor gen.
eral medical, special medican, laboratory
and hospital services for every one OF the
estimated 100000 Americans cover
ed by a broadened Social Security Act.
I i L h. Of
the U. S. medisal profession, because OF
the powers this proposed law would give
him.
These powers include: To enlist physi-
clans for the services above described,
and hospitals likewise; to fix fees of
physicians rendering such services; to
limit the number of patients to be cared
for by each physician to prorate patients
among available physicians; to finance
medical education and medical research.
Out of his $4,000, 100000 a year, it is
believed the Surgeon General would spend
$500, 900 for administration and
would pay out So, ,400,O 100000 in benefits.
Under the benefit" head he would be
required to spend per cent of the $2,-
400,000,0O0, or S48,000,000, on medical
research and education.
The bill also empowers the Surgeon
General to muscle into the dental and
nursing professions and Improve" them
something he would be we'll provided
with taxpayers money to do. What inl-
provement any political control can bring
to the medical, dental or nursing pro-
feSsion is another CUSTOM and we think
a most dubious one.
The excitement of the war is being
taken advantage of by assorted theorists
and fanatics to push their theories and
fanaticisms onto the national statute
books.
1t looks to us in this instance as if
Senators Wagner and Murray have been
sold bale of extremely dangerous goods
by some fanatic or other. 1t is to be
hoped that Congress will scrutinize this
bill from the graund up before it lifts a
finger toward passing it or anything like
it.

PRESIDENTS PLEDGE

In his latest speech to the nation Presi-
dent Roosevelt pledged that Americas
soldiers will not return home to land
rotten with initiation, where the dollars
saved by the men before they put on uni
forms will not be worth as much as hat
full of Confederate money.
This was only one promise Mr.. Roose-
welt made to the country's service men.
He outlined broad program of re-
habilitation which has been worked out
by the nations top economic heads. 1t
includes "mustering-out pay" unemploy-
ment insurance, opportunity for continu-
ing education at government expense, al
lowance of credit under unemployment
compensation and federal old age and
survivors insurance for the length of serv-
ice, liberal medical care for disabled vet
erans and sufficient pensions for disabled
service men.
Indications are that congress will ap-
prove the program, with only slight dele
tions and thus recognize the great serv-
ice rendered by these men.

RUSSIA, POWER OF EUROPE

On the snowy steppes of the Caucasus,
in Stalingrad's shell-torn streets and now
in the region of Orel a new Europe has
been brought into being.
When Hitler's troops failed to race
through to Moscow in the early stages of
the war the pattern was drawn. The
Soviets fought desperately for their
homeland and the repercussions of those
days will change the entire structure Of
Europe, both physically and politically.
After this war the Russian Bear will
be the master of the continent. Germany,
France, Italy, the other nations now un-
der the Axis yoke, and perhaps even
Great Britain will be drawn into its
sphere of influence.
~ 1t now appears to be a race between
the Red army and forces of other Allied
nations to determine who will get to
Berlin first and dictate the peace terms.
- Already the Russians have served not
ice that they intend to be the rulers of
Europe.
A Free German Committee has been
set up in Moscow and its fundamentals
have been announced. These funda-
mentals, which outline the German state
after the war envisaged by the Reds,
are not very different than ones which
picture. But the very fact that the Reds
United States representative group might
have taken the initiative in this respect
is a good indication that they intend
things in Grmany to be run pretty much
as might be wished by Premier Josef
Stain and his advisors.
The Reds will be in a good position to
back up their wishes too. Their army,
which has been nodded in the fire of bat
tie, will be powerful enough to back up
any dictum which communist leaders
hand down, once the Nazis are decisively
defeated and driven from the drivers
seat
Russia is a power which the United
States and other non-European countries
will do we'll to cultivate.

Informed sources estimated that

tonnage for July to at least 22,00O,

Hamburg is marked for complete
destruction, the Germans rushed
additional anti-aircraft guns and
night fighters to the area IN ad-
vance of last nights raid, the air
ministry said.
The increased defenses, however,
failed to interfere, with the de-
livery of highly-concentrated at
tack in clear weather." the ministry
added. At least three interceptlng
