 End To Work

Washington, Oct. 28-Typewriters were clicking again today in the War Department's Pentagon building and pencils were making curlecues in stenographic notebooks.
 The powerful-shouldered Army Air Force Captain with the king-Sized dimple has gone, but not before his presence held up the war effort for nearly two hours.
 For during that time the one-tiIne Academy Award winner caused hun- dreds of workers in uniform and multi alike to jettison all thoughts of war.
 He came. they saw and he con- Quered.
 All efforts to keep him under wraps proved futile. For days quick silver rumors had him in the capital.
 The war department finally con- ceded defeat and announced that the captain holder of the air medal for exceptionally merltorious achieve ment" in five bombing missions in the European theater would hold a press conference.
 There was scramble for the jobs of taking the stepographic trans cript and checking credentials as correspondents and photographers entered Secretary of War Henry L.. Stimsons press conference room.
 Long before his scheduled appear ance the room was filled and the corridors outside lined with whisper

Crux In
 Ookes Case
(NEA Telephoto)

Nassau, Bahamas, Oct. 2e.-(Up = A second fingerprint of Alfred Dc Marigny found on screen in. thg room In which Sir Harry Cakes wa murdered was admitted as evidence today in his trial on a charge oi murder.
 Justice Sir oscar Daly, who took the question under advisement yes- terday when defense attorneys ob- iected strongly to the second finger print, announced when the trial was resumed today:
 Tt is the ruling of the court, after consideration thereof, that the fin- gerprint be admitted. The weight of the evidence is up to the jury to decide"
 The decision will have @ vital bearing on both the prosecution and defense cases as the crown and counsel for the French nobleman have centered their questioning and cross-examination of witnesses on Q fingerprint which DeMarigny is accused of leaving on the screen at the time his multi-millionaire fath- er-in-law was beaten to death.
 The fact that Q second fingerprint was found on the sllk-covered screen was brought out yesterday in the testimony of Capt. James O. Baker, fingerprint expert of the Miami, Fla, police, one of the prosecution's chief witnesses.

SOLDIER HELD IN AUTODEATH
 OF A. DUvAL

A 22-year-old soldier, home on furlough, was held under a $2,OO0 bond following the death this morning of Alex ander Duval, 71, Cottage Place as a result of a traffic accident on East Main Street.
 Captain William Duggan of the Accident Prevention Blu reau said a car driven by Pasquale Antonelli, 22, 83 French Street, Watertow1, who had no operators license, struck Duval in front of McElligott's on East Main Street at about 2:20 this morning.
 Capt. Duggan said that Lieut.. Patrick Hobart and Motor Patrol men John Spadaro and Vincent Healy who rushed to the scene, found no one there. Investigation revealed that Antonelli had taken the injured man in his car and driven him to his home in Water town.
 A brother of Antonelli's then drove the man to St. Mary's hos- pital, where he was admitted at 3 Q. m. He died at 6:26 Q. m. Medical Examiner Dr. Edward H. Kirschbaum said death was caused by Q compound fracture of the right leg, a fracture of the left leg, 6 probable fracture at the base of the skull, and trauInatic shock.
 Capt. Duggan's men were contirl- uing an investigation of the acci- dent throughout today. Further de- tails were not immediately avail able.
 Coroner Miles F. McNiff, Jr., rous- ed from his sleep at 3 a. m, began preliminary investigations, and or- dered Antonellie held under $2000 bonds.
 The accident was the second seri- ous one to occur in the Waterbury area in a twelve hour period. Jos eph Johnston, 75, of Thomaston was taken to Waterbury hospital in critical condition after being struck by an automobile in Thomaston at 6 o'clock last night. His condition was reported as poor this morning. No arrest was made in this case.

Police Grill .Lonergon

New York, Oct. 2S-(UP)-Detec- tives Investigating the murder of pretty, wealthy Patricia Burton Lonergan said today they had ac- cumulated evidence to substantiate e good circumstantial case against her husband, Wayne Lonergan, lanky RCAF aircraftman.
 Police officials said they had found so many discrepancies they believe they will be able to blast entirely the alibi accounting for Lonergan's movements in New York last week end when his wife was strangled and beaten to death in her fash- tonable Beekman Hill apartment.
 Lonergan snatched some sleep to- day after 13 hours of questioning last night, steadfastly maintaining his innocence. He again will face Assistant District Attorney Jacob Grumet at about noon and may be taken to the scene of the murder, 1t was reported.
 Charges must be filed against Lonergan at the end of a 48-hour period after he came within juris? diction of the New York courts.

'UnusuoI'
 Motion Filed In Will Case

Arguments on the motion to erase the Supreme Court appeal of the City of Waterbury and the Wa terbury Trust Go. in the David Porter will interpretation case will be presented in the Hartford court room next Wednesday, Nov. 3, at Il a. rn., according to the assign nnent list released today. The hear ing was postponed from last month when 6 counsel for several of the Porter heirs, who filed the motion, became i'll.
 The appeal was instituted after the City of Waterbury was denied the use of the Porter estate valued at more than $200, 900, for establish ment of a state trade school. Super for Court Judge Frank P. McEvoy, who returned the decision, stated a trade school would not approximate the type of school for which MT. Porter left funds.
 In asking for the dismissal of the two plaintiffs from the appeal, the heirs state the cit..' has no legal in- terest in the estate and is merely one of many parties who might ultimately receive the Porter prop erty under the doctrine of approxi- nation. They claim the bank, trustee for the estate, secured the relief 1t sought when 1t was given interpretation of the Will in super for court and that since 1t was only @ stakeholder 1t could not be ag- grieved by the decision.
 Corporation Counsel Maurice T EIealey will represent the city at the hearing, while ttorney Walter Torrance will appear for the bank The motion was drawn lip by the firm of Bronson, Rice and Lyman oi New Haven which represents Bertha CoEstock and Elizabeth Abel; At-

Sales Tox Rejected

Washington, Oct. 2S.-(UP)-The House Ways and Means committee today rejected proposals for na- tional retail sales tax.
 Washington, Oct. 2S-(UP)-The House Ways and Means committee was expected to vote today on pro- posals for c federal retail sales tax.
 Committee members said they had talked themselves out" on the long, fought issue and were ready to act as soon as the treasury and congress sional tax researchers clear up a few remaining points.
 Yet to be decided was the final administration position on sugges- tionS that a five or 10 per cent sales tax be imposed as @ Hast resort method of raising additional rev. enue.
 The committee, which voted down all major treasury recommendations for meeting the administrators s $10 0,5O0, ,000, GOO revenue goal, put the issue up to Randolph Paul, chief tax counsel for the treasury, in . closed session yesterday.
 we asked Mir. Paul whether the treasury would rather have only the $2,000, ,000, 900 program of excise and excess profits taxes which the committee has approved, or this program and a sales tax" @ mem- Der of the committee said.
 
 "He told us that he couldn't an- swer without consulting other per- sons and we instructed him to bring us a final answer as soon as possi- ble."
 Paul presumably will confer on the subject with Economic Stabliza- tion Director Fred M. Vinson or some White House source since Sec retary of Treasury Henry Morgen-

REDS STORM OVER STEPPES
 IN BIG DRIVE

Moscow, October 28. - (UP) - Battered German forces broke and fled in wild disorder along a 90-mile front today as powerful Cossack armored units stormed across the Nogaisk steppes in a tw0- pronged drive to seal off the Crimea and complete the en- circlement of the Dnieper bulge.
 (Moscow reports quoted by the British radio said the battle of the Dnieper had ended and the battle of the Bug River to the west had begun. They also said the Germans in South Russia were in full re- treat, with beaten and broken formations tearing westward at top speed" after the biggest German beating since Stalingrad).
 (The German high command re- ported "embittered defensice fight. ing" west of Melitopol, claiming that Russian attempts to expand breach in the German positions were halted in fierce hand to hand fighting.)
 (The Swiss radio quoted by the British radio and CBS, said all Rumanians living east of the Dni- ester river "have received orders to prepare for immediate evacuation into Rumanian.")
 Break Through
 The decisive Russian break through along the whole front from the southeast corner of the Dnieper river bend to the sea of Azov heightened the threat of aEinihiIa- ton hanging over upwards Of 1.Oo0.- 900 Axis troops in the southern Uk- raine and the Crinaea.
 A 60-mile Russian sweep to the Perekop Isthnnus would cut off ail land escape for the German Cri- mean garrison and a thrust across | the lower reaches of the Dnieper for Q junction with the Soviet col umn now battling in the streets o{ Krivoi Rog would trap the remnants of perhaps 5O0,000 Germans Ara tlzs Dnieper bulge.
 Red air force bombers, fighters and assault planes roared out ahead of the Soviete vanguard and ripped the fleeing enemy columns on the Nogisk Steppes with bombs and bullets, killing hundreds of troops and wrecking transport. Twenty- eight German planes which sought to interfere were shot down.
 Haste To Escape
 Tn their haste to escape, the Ger mans abandoned artillery, trench mortars, ammunition and other war material along the highways. TweEs- ty tnks, i37 guns and 12 six-barrei- led trench mortars were captured in one sector.
 Soviet raiding parties cut in be- hind the enerny's rear guards and rounded up hundreds of prisoners,

CHRISTIANITY NEEDED

Editor, The CltlZen:
What is the bearing of the Chris
tan religion upon our national
obligation to defend and preserve
the democratic ideal? There are
dark days ahead for all of us. Even
granting that we escape the ac-
tual physical horrors of war, we
are sure to suffer misery of body
and mind and spirit.
Economic strains will lower the
standard of living. Thousands of
lives will be DETECTED from their
normal course. There is grave
danger of our succumbing to the
notion that in order to preserve
democratic civilization it is nee
essary to become as undemocratic
and as unciviliZed as possible. AT
best there will certainly be great
concentration of our energies on
unideal activities.
Our minds will become obsess-
ed with matters which in other
circumstances would be unworthy
the attention of civilized human
beings. Intelligently constructive
criticism of the political, economic,
and social Shortcomings of our
country will be condemned as
fifth-colurnn propaganda. Even if
we do not have to withstand the
actual horrors of war we shall be
immersed in all the ugly passions
,of Neutrality-suspicious., fear, an
ger, nate.
Surely if we hope to emerge
from OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
years of beastliness still more or
less decent, more or less sane,
more or less capable of repairing
the civilization which we shall
have damaged in the endeavor to
preserve it, we shall need to use
all the Christianity we possess.
Whatever happens in the world
which men have shaped for them
selves in forgetflIlness of God,
we Christians know that there is a
God-made world of peace, love,
joy, and freedom; and we know
that even on this side of the grave
we NAV attain something of the
peace of God through repentance,
faith, sacrifice and service.
