Like newly fallen snow against a
blue sky or white eggs in IL bue-lined
box, white shirts, sheets, towels and
tabIecloths also, depend largely upon
the adroit use of blue for their spark
ling whitenesS.
Scientists at the American Institute
the Laundering explain this seeming
color magic by reminding us that the
whiteSt of cotton cloth is only seventy
six per cent of the ideal whiteness of
newly fallen snow against Il blue sky.
To our inexperienced eye, new sheets
or shirts appear snowy white just as
the blooming cotton from which they
are made appears to be snowy white in
the field. Actually, however, these cot
ton fiberS are tinged with yellow.

UKRA|NIAN :
PLAIN May Be
BLOODY FIELD

Moscow, November 8. -
(UP) - Swift Russian mo.
bile forces famed out far be-
yond captured Kiev today in
pursuit OF a demoralized Ger
man army fleeing over the
Ukrinian plain which mill
tary sources said was about
to become a Nazi slaughter
pen unrivaled since Stain
grad.
Front reports said the undermined
German position between tho
Dnieper and the Bug rivers was
deteriorating by the hour under the
impact of Red Army blows, and
the Nazis were facing their greatest
crisis of the war.
Spearheaded by column which
sliced through the key junction OF
Fastov, Soviet forces raced out as
far as 40 miles west, northwest and
southwest If Kiev, where German
resistance was crushed Saturday to
break the whole middle Dnieper de-
Tense line.
Superior Force
"a German communique said that
the battle area Of Kiev" the Rus
slams were pushing forward on q
broad front with far superior forcs."
The occupation Of Fastov gave the
Red Army control Of the strategic
supply line running southeast 10
Krivoi Rog and southwest to Odessa
while accentuating the threat Of
enveloping the powerful Germ~n
forces in the Dnieper bend.
Gen. Nikolai r. Vatutin's armored
divisions swept forward more than
40 miles in ,Wo days to reduce las
tov and fan out toward Zhitom!r and
Verdichev.
The onrushing Soviets gave tie
Germans no chance to dig in end
fortify themselves, and observers ~
garded the Red army sweep was g.,
swift and paralyzing that the Ger
mans probably would not be able
to check 1t short Of the old Polish
| border.
German Retreat
The newspaper Pravda quoted
NaZi prisoners as saying OF the
German retreat
1.-THE swiftness of events defies &C.
scription. Every German Is fleeing
for his life. Automobiles, trucks
with and without guns, Panzers. and
all sorts OF vehicles obstruct the
infantry, which abandons everything
arms, shells, personal belongings
to speed Its escape.
Terror stricken infantrymen and
artillerymen, many barefooted, race
westward Machines collide on the
jammed roads. Maddened horses

DEATHL|STED
AS SUICIDE

Police this morning ruled out the
possibility Of foul play in the fatal
shooting last night Of Jack O'Brien,
Sc, in q Hill street lot, and pre-
pared to list the death rs suicide,
pending formal filing Of the COR
Oner's report.
O'Brien was found in the lot
about so feet south Of 476 Hill street
with a .38 calibre bullet wound in
his right temple at 1920 by a
squad Of detectives and motor pa
trolmen who answered telephone
call from the Hill street address.
Acting County Detective Thomas
Laden found note in the mans
pocket, saying, Don't blame any
one for this" but giving no reason
for his action.
Mrs. Bonita Arcand. SO, as Aurora
street, questioned by Detective Lieu
tenant William Pollard, who con-
Quoted the investigation for the po-
lice department, said he had writ
ten the note on Friday.
After he wrote the note, she said,
he showed her the revolver. When
she asked to see the note, he said,
Don't worry, I amt gonna bother
you no more" and showed the note
in his pocket.
Mrs. Arcand said O'Brien had
been drinking heavily and feeling
very depressed for sometime. He
lost his Job as q bus driver last
week.
The revolver was found, with one
bullet discharged, under O'Brien's
right armpit. There were powder
marks about the bullet hole on his
forehead. Thomas Grove, Tanning
ST., told police that he mad his wife
had seen O'Brien, standing alone
near the place where he was shot
shortly before the tragedy.
O'Brien and Mrs. Arcand had
been at the home Of Joseph Rosa,
476 Hill st. before the shooting,
While they were there an argu-
ment had started between OBrien
and Henry Dvorak, 80, 224 Green
st., Mrs. Arcands son-in-law, but
Lieut.. Pollard was convinced that
this had no bearing on the shoot
ing.
Coroner Miles F. McNiff, Jr, who
began an investigation along with
the police last night, said he had
ordered no one held.
OBrien's home was originally IN
New Haven, and police are trying
to contact his mother there.

Vinson announced today that he had
approved wage increases for the l.
100000 operating railway en-
ployes ranging from four cents an
hour In the higher-paid brackets
to 10 cents an hour for lower paid

The wage increases were recon-
mended by the special railway labor
panel named last month by President

further after their recommendation
for fiat eight-cent-an-hour in

was disapproved by Vinson last May.
Under the new wage adjustments,
Vinson said one-third of the nom
operating rail employees will receive
increases Of more than eight cents
an hour, and half will receive at
