sequences.

WASHINGTON, July 23-The Soviet
manifesto urging the German army and the
workers in the Reich to revolt was widely
interpreted today in diplomatic circles as a
bold bid to Germany to turn Communist and
link up its destiny with Russia.

from the United Nations with peace campaign Of
its own-a peace campaign with solid Red lining
The message to the German people, cloaked under the
name of THE National Committee of Free Germany,

Secretary of War Stimson today
described the Chinese victory on the
West Hupeh front as "the most i'm

were incomplete divisions, neverthe-
less the success of China was an
important achievement"
Mr.. Stimson said the Chinese had
local air superiority in the engage
ment and that American and
Chinese flyers co-ordinated with
ground forces to inflict very con-
siderable" casualties and damage to
equipment.
Turning to the North Pacific
campaign, he said the hills on Attu

armament is being rapidly in
