to Be Made Available
for Study, Checkup

A compiled edition Of all city ordi-
nances Is expected to be issued soon
according to q report. It Is stated
that Martin Sweeney, city purchas-
ing agent, Is now having 500 to 1000
Of these printed up In an effort to
determine Just what amount Of APP
preparation would be required to
meet the printing Of these editions
In q large quantity.
This is the first. time since 1925
that such an edition has been PLAN
ned, and Its issuance comes from
the survey made by members Of the
board Of aldermen under the legal
guidance Of Atty. Alfred Finklestein,
which has been in operation for the
past year and was completed just
recently.

real outstanding changes in the more

ing confined mainly to revisions and

DRAFT INDUCTEES
ON WAY TO CAMP

A large contingent Of inductees
from local board l6-B today left by
bus for Hartford there to entrain
for Fort Devens. Mayor John g..
Monogan addressed the group in
the aldermanic chambers and kits
were issued to each individual.
It Is understood that the reason
no band has played at these de-
partures this week Is due to the
fact that the groups have not left
until 10 a. m. at which time the
members Of the band are working In
defense industries and unable to
leave their work. Previously when
the inductees left at Z a. m. 1t was
possible for the musicians TO be
present. Some means Of meeting
this situation are being considered
at the present to offset this pro-
cedure, In the future.

with the fuehrer.
Jugoslav sources In London said
partisan troops practically had en-
circled the big Adriatic seaport OF
Trieste and suggested that the fall
Of the city was imminent.
These sources said the partisans
were Smelling Trieste heavily, and
had intercepted a radioed appeal for
help from the German commander
In the city of Rommel.
The message was said to have
warned Rommel that Trieste may
be lost unless reinforcements were
rushed in.
Partisan positions around Trieste
were reported under constant at
tackefrom German dive bombers.
Neither the Berlin radio nor
Jugoslav partisan communicate men,
toned the Trieste fighting, but the
Germans admitted their troops were
meeting stiff opposition east Of
Fiume. The partisans said German
tanks had made temporary breach
in their lines in that area but had
been hurled back subsequently.
The partisans also reported fierce
fighting along the main railroad
line Of Ljubljana, In Slovenia, an
said street battles were continuing
in the important Bosnian industrial
town Of zenica.
At the same time, they said raid
ing columns had damaged railroad
lines In Croatia and Western Bosnia
about so TO 90 miles inland from the
Adriatic coast.
Jugoslav sources in London, mean
while, suggested that Gen. Draja
Mikahilovitch' patriot armies and
the partisans commanded by Gen.
Josip (Tito) Brozovich may unite
in q joint campaign against the
Nazis.
These informants said prospects
for the merger Of the two factions
were enhanced by the fact that the
italian Venezia division, with which
Mikhailovitch had been collaborat-
ing, has gone over to the partisans.
