RED5F0RCED
TO GIVE UP
SOME GAINS
Withdrawal First Reverse
for Soviets Since
StdIingrdd
(By Associated Press

Confronted by stiff counter-at-
lacks, adverse weather conditions
and difficult terrain the Red Army
has given up ground in the Ukraine
for the first time since they began
their successful offensive four
months ago.
The withdrawal was executed
Yesterday in the Zhitomir- Koro-
styshev sector at the tip of the
Red Army's salient west of Kiev,
and came on the eve of the first
anniversary of the launching of the
great Soviet ter-offensive at
Stalingrad on November ID, 1912
Nazi Counter-Attacks
The retreat followed a series of
heavy Nazi counter-attacks south
east of zhitomir and in the Fastov
sector in which masses of tanks and
infantry were used by the Germans
in an attempt to slice off the bulge
of the Soviet front.
A Russian communique said the
drive cost the Germans $500 cas-
ualties and 80 tanks and troop
carriers.
Advices from London said the
Germans reported they had thrown
at least 10000 troops in the zhit-
omir assault. The depth of the
withdrawal was not given, but the
Russian communique confirmed the
setback by the laconic report that
the Red Army, under pressure. was
abandoning several settlements.
Tactical Maneuver
Military observers. however, be-
lieved the withdrawal was not on a
large scale, but tactical maneuver
designed to prevent the encircle-
ment of the comparatively small
advance guard. They explained that
light mobile column of tanks and
motorized infantry led the Rus
sian drive through Korostyshev and
zhitomir, but the bulk of the Red
Army forces were unable to main
tain the pace.
No mention was made of the de-
velopments in the battle on the
Crimean Peninsula, but dispatches
from the front indicated that fog
and rain were immobilizing both
sides.

The w ashington
Merry Go Round
BY DREW PEARSON
tnsjor Robert q. Allen on active dutyJ

WASHINGTON - The coast-to-
coast stop Willkie tour OF handsome,
urbarle John Hamilton seems to be
getting nowhere fast. Reports from
the West Coast are that everyone
is glad to see the popular ex-GOP
National Committee Chairman, but
that he offers nothing for some
thing.
In Seattle last week, for instance,
he told Republican friends that ne
thought Tom Dewey would be nom
mated, but that Roosevelt would
beat him. Reaction OF Hamltons
listeners was negative. They teit
he radiated, without intending to
do so, a defeatLs attitude.
In Seattle, Hamilton was the
guest of live-wire young Republican
Fred Baker. Though Baker is for
Willkie, he took pains to see that
Hamilton talked to all groups OF
Republicans-Deweyites, Brickerites,
AFL leaders, women's organizations,
county leaders. and state legislators.
Hamilton proposed as proper COP
timber one of the following four:
Gen. Macarthur, Gov. Warren OF
California, Gov Saltonstall of Mass,
Gov. Baldwin of Conn. He describ-
ed Bricker as great disappoint-
ment.
John described himself as repre-
senting a group of people in big
states with heavy electoral votes
who were dead set against Willkie
and wanted to see what other can
didates sat wen with the country.
He SHE'D away from giving details
as to who were in the group OF
prominent Republicans he repre-
scented, though he did not deny
being backed by Pennsylvania Oil
Man Pew. This, of course, was
taken for granted.

b. ). Air Punch, West
And East Coming Up;
Blows for Knotkoufs
BY JACK sTINNETT

WASHINGTON, Nov. 18-With-
in the next few months, maybe only
weeks, the great air story of this
war is going to be written into the
record.
In military, naval and aviation
circles here, they are positive of it,
Let's examine some reasons:
% Military experts here say
definitely that you will hears of
bombings of the Axis from western
Russia by American air forces al.
most any week now. While some
say that this is a result Of the
Moscow conference, there are in
dications this plan has been under
way for quite while.
If this is true, the importance
can't be oyerestimated. In spite of
lRussia's great ground offensive, it
hasn't had the bomber strength to
disrupt communications and pro-
duction in eastern Germany. If
such a bomber force can be estab-
,lished there in mid winter, it may
be the bundle Of straws that breaks
the NaZis' back on the eastern front.
90 The appointment of It. Gen.
Carl A. Spaatz as chief of the new
all-American air forces in the Med
iterranean. Even before this an
nouncement was made, Spaatz's new
18th Air Force had started batter
ing Weinerneustadt and the Mes
serschmitt assembly plant there. 1t
was probably this raid that forced
the Army high command to reveal
just what was behind it. This
marked the beginning of whip-saw
bombing. Implied is the fact that
the United Nations is now ready to
match bombings from England with
bombings from the South.
80 In spite of England's winter
weather. there will be terrific raids
from the British Isles in coming
months. United Nations air forces
have now, it is said, so combined
their skills that they can take off
IN Britain's fogs prepared TO do
either precision or pattern bombing.
"a In the Pacific, in spite of
months of lack OF concentration, air
victories have been outstanding
These victories, it is said here, are
proof that once we settle down to
the real business of knocking the
