Spur Drive on

BY HENRY SHAPIRO

! MOSCOW, Aug. 17-tCpl-Five
Russian columns accelerated con-
verging drives toward the big Ger
man base at Bryansk today, liberat-
ing towns and villages at the rate
of five an hour, but heavy enemy
counter r-attackS slowed Soviet pro-
/ greSs in the Ukraine.
Smashing along the Orel-Bryansk
railroad in a frontal assault. the
miles from Bryansk after capturing
Malyeluki in an eight-mile advance
from the defense outpost of Kar-
achev.
Another force nearly so miles due
North of Bryansk was threatening
to outflank the German Desna river
line, where the Axis forces are eX-
pected to make their final stand be-
fore the central front baStion.
Massive oloWS rom this column
drove three battered German Pam
zer divisions equipped with self
propelled guns back beyond De-
cirevo, only IL miles from Kirov
junction on the Bryansk- -Vyazma
line. Further Soviet progress would
place the entire German positions
on the DeSna in jeopardy.
Other Russian columns were %
miles North of Bryansk midway be-
tween the railroads to Orel and
Moscow, 81 miles Northeast along
the railroad to Moscow, and 27
miles Southeast.
German reserves, acked by strong
forces of tanks and planes, were
communicating in Kharkov and
before Poltava in the Ukraine with
ever-encreasing fury in an attempt
to halt the Russian advance short
Of the Dnieper river.
Soviet detacnments on one sector
of the Poltava front, however,
stormed across a river and captured
two villages and on another, seized
favorable position" after killing
500 of the enemy in fierce battle.
The situation in Kharkov in itself
was obscure. At last reports the
Russians were in the Northern and
Eastern suburbs, but lack of further
news Indicated they were meeting
stubborn opposition as they sought
to reach the center of Russia S

at the hearing. mo one would do
anything and l couldn't find out a
thing Everyone said the orders
had to come from someone else
In statement at the close of the
hearing, Attorney Horton declared
that it was pitiful for the rules and
regulations of the ODT and the
OPA to be so hidebound that Am
ericans were not permitted to do
everything they can to keep busi-
nesses of vital necessity running
the best they can in spite of the
war.
There is no place in the United
States where greater war-effort is
being made than in the Imperial
Valley" the attorney said. 1--WE in
Imperial Valley have definite work
to do in this war and we are get
ting tired of having people from
the outside jump down our throats
when we have the courage to do our
jobs in spite of the meddling and
interference of persons who know
nothing of the local situation"
WORDS WASTED
Dulin then interposed by re-
marking that the conversation was
wasted on him as the rules and reg
ulations were fixed and the opin-
ion of one individual didn't matter.
Dulin took the taxicab case. as
we'll as all other cases heard at
the Monday hearing, under sub
mission and will make his decisions
later.
Other cases heard at the hearing
included the OPA charges that John
