crossings, but the Russians cleared wide stretch of the south bank and began smelling the right bangk pre- paratory to forcing the Dnieper themselves and closing a trap on perhaps hundreds of thousands of Nazi troops in the Dnieper bend.
 The extent of the German rout was reflected by the Cossacks' 25- mile advance yesterday-the biggest Russian gain made in a single day since the start of the war. More than 30 towns and villages were overrun, including Bolshie Kopani, 19 miles southeast of Kherson; Mix hailovka, g miles south of Emerson, and Chalbasy, g miles southeast of Emerson.
 Hundreds Drown
 Hundreds of Germans died in the swirling waters of the Dnieper while trying to cross to the north bank and at least temporary safety un- der a literal rain of Soviet aerial bombs and shells. The river was filtered with German bodies and the wreckage of boats and rafts.
 Soviet bomberS, fighters and at tack planes blasted and strafed the river crossings without respite and shot down Is German aircraft which sought to interfere.
 More than 2,000 Germans were killed in one sector of the Nogaisk steppes, while in another, Ger man infantry egiment-normally B. 900 men was dispersed and part ly wiped out and it's entire arma- ment captured. Booty taken includ- ed 16 guns, 13 six-barrelled mortars, 800 horses and 10000 head of cat tie.
 No New Reports
 The Soviet high command com munique last midnight contained no new reports of the Russian drive into the Caucasus and the fighting in Krivoi Rog, northern prop to the Dnieper Bend escape corridor. but said that Red Army troops in- side the bend had seized several more localities.
 (The London Daily Telegraph quoted a German broadcast that three Soviet tank attacks had preached the German defenses in Krivoi Rog with some Russian tanks reaching the city square and others fighting their way into the suburbs. The Telegraph also said that the Nazi-controlled Scandinavian Tele- graph Bureau reported the Russians had extended their bridgehead near Kerch at the eastern end of the Crimea and were threatening to crush the Germans in pincers. New Soviet landings on the Crimean south coast are anticipated, STE was quoted as Saying0

 At coal fields in Ohio, Illinois, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Wy oming and Utah, union spokesmen said efforts would be made to get the miners back in the pits within periods ranging from l2 to 48 hours.
 At New York City, where colder weather was expected today, the supply of anthracite was at it's low- est point in history. The 300 war production community homes of Farmingdale, N Y., were without fuel and three schools were closed because of empty coal bins, Ofileials were seeking emergency shipments of anthracite stocks frozen by Ickes.
 The anthracite miners new con- tract with Iekes grants them a 32- cent wage increase daily and also reduces their lunch period from 90 to l5 minutes to provide them an additional raise of 37B cents a day.

 Most senators had agreed that the Senate should make 8 declara- tion of postwar aims now to assure other nations that the United States would not again repect international collaboration. The issue was whether a simple pledge of future cooperation would suffice or whether the senate should expressly favor a definite international organization.
 Moscow Agreement
 The Moscow agreement, signed by representatives of the four great Allier powers and specifying inter national organization" provided tho answer. Yesterday the foreign re- lations committe agreed to add two paragraphs to it's original resolution, the first of which was point No. 4 of the Moscow pact.
 "That the Senate recognizes the necessity of there being established at the earliest possibl date a gen. eral international organization. based on the principle of the sov- ereign equality of all peace-loving states, and open to membership by all such states, large and small, for the maintenance of international peace and security.
 That, pursuant to the constitu- ton of the United States, any treaty made to effect the purposes of this resolution, on behalf of the government of the United States with any other nation or any asso- citation of nations, shall be made only by and with the advice and consent of the Senate of the United States, provided two-tihrds of the Senators present concur"

 Their apparent intention was to enter the bay, destroy the United States transports and supply ships unloading there, and Lombard the Marines ashore.

 The admirals orders were explicit - prevent an such occurrence.
 He exceeded his orders by not only doing that but by crippling the imposing task force as well.
 Never at any time. however, did he leave even the tiniest entry to Empress Augusta Bay through which a segment of the Japanese force might slip in the heat of battle, The admiral could have fought the battle in the open sea but chose to wage the fight in narrower, un- charted waters near Empress Augus- ta Bay to protect the landing forces against possible attack,

Turn Day Into Night to
Help Pilots Fly Blind

WASHINGTON. - The navy has
turned day into night so that pilots
may be trained more quickly.
Until recently, the methods Of
teaching instrument and night flying
necessitated that both the instructor
and students be covered with hood
over the entire cockpit. This hood
prevented any visual contact with
the outside, resulting in delays Of in
struction and causing a danger fac
tor.
Now, navy and college research
has devised a new technique. A
green cover is placed over the
windshield and the aviation cadet
given red filter goggles. Through
these goggles the f1edgling pilot can
see the instrument panel, but he is
unable to see through the green COW
er. The instructor wears no goggles
and can see clearly through the COW
er to check the students landings
and other maneuvers. Thus, the stu
dent receives his night flying and
instrument practice with the safety
Of daytime operation.

ql3a TOGETHER UNDERSTANDING

A Reader: Would 1t be wise for
me to change jobs for more money?
Would l be able to hold the one
have in mind? 1 would like for
these questions to be answered in
your column as 1 enjoy reading it.
Ans: Go right ahead and change
jobs. Certainly you can hold this
better paying position. Further
more, you can pass your old job
along to your daughter with
your help, she can fill your shoes
with ease.
Dock: I want to know from you,
can you send me something that
I can get every woman I wish?
If so, fix me so I can have the
best time with that sweet little
girl Lille. Hurry, I really need it
quick.
Ans: That's a pretty big order
Dock, and a sappy one. You should
know at your age that this cOnjure
business is just a bunch of poppy
cock. 1t is a racket my friend,
whereby the gypsy and the fortune
teller bleed the gullible public for
their hard earned money. So Dock,
if you want Lilies love, you'll
have to win it, and without the aid
of black magic. Sorry old man.
A. T.: I went with a boy the same
age l am for one year. He loved
me and I loved him until we had
some trouble and quit. Then I
met another boy and married him.
I now have a baby six months old.
A boy. Everytime I see him he
asks me why I didn't name him
after him and when I don't have
the baby he asks me where's his
baby. He still loves me and I love
him, but the baby is no part of
his. He often calls me on the
phone and tells me he loves me
and wants to marry me some day,
that everyone makes a mistake in
life. Does he really want to get
married?
Ans: Sure he does. When he
completes his college education and
begins practicing medicine he will
marry. You won't be the bride
tho. He is smart and shrewd and
when he marries It will be to a girl
who can lend him social prestige
and maybe financial assistance.
Don't let your fancies lead you
astray. You once enjoyed this boys
love and friendship. Let it stand
at that. Better to go on enjoying

State Ceologist Reports on
Mining activities.

RALEIGH, NJ c. - Throughout
North Carolina work crews are dig
ging, drilling and scraping as they
never have before in an effort to
find and extract minerals for ma
terial-hungry war industries.
The vast extent Of this effort is
revealed in a summary prepared for
the state board Of conservation and
development by DR.. ]. L. Stuckey,
state geologist.
His report disclosed that manga
nese Is already being mined in
Allegheny county on a small scale;
that the RFC has advanced money
for new copper prospecting in North
Carolina; t It there is a fair pros
pect" Of reopening the states old
corundum mines, and that the long
awaited exploitation Of the states
spodumene deposits is under way.
The coal deposits centering around
Sanford, which have produced in
past years, are now being explored
and old shafts cleaned. Some coal
has already been taken out.
Other developments of the last
year included mining Of Divine for
refractory purposes and renewed in
terest in this mineral as a source Of
metallic magnesium; the increased
production of vermiculite; the phe-
nomenal increase in mica produc-
ton and prices, and significant re-
newed interest in the states iron
deposits because Of the proposal to
resort to sponge iron as a remedy
for the metal shortage.
The report said that in June, 1912,
the mineral resources division, in
cooperation with the IVA, made
studies Of the copper deposits in the
Culloshee area, the Adams property
near Fontana, and at Ore Knob in
Ashe county. AS result, DR.. Stuck
ey said, the RFC has advanced
loans for drilling near Fontana.
