Nazis Lose Heavily
In Attacking Russian
Lines in Romania
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, June 1.--Large-scale
German attacks on Russian lines
north of Iasi in Romania cost the
Nazis thousands of dead" yester-
day without advancing their lines
"a single STEP" Moscow said today
A broadcast Soviet communique
declared the Nazis, using tanks and
infantry, made incessant assaults on
the Soviet Tines, but counterblows
by Red infantry, artillery and tanks
stalled all efforts to push beyond
the insignificant wedge" achieved
the day before.
The Russians said they had
knocked out 122 German tanks and
shot down 1854 enemy planes in the
first two days Of the battle--the
first stable break in q six-week
lull on the dong eastern land front.
Berlin reports said the aim OF
the attacks was to improve German
Romanian positions in the area,
from which the Nazis have pre-
dicted the Russians would attempt
a drive into the rich Ploesti and
Danubian oil fields.
Whether the battle presaged any
immediate grand offensive on the
eastern land front was not known.

turkeys Entrance
Into War Soon After
Invasion Is Seen

~ hhC f1ocuClutC0 ACo1.
LONDON, June Turkeys en-
trance into the war on the side OF
the Allies soon after they launch
their invasion of Western Europe is
regarded as a strong possibility by
some quarters in London, not only
because of the Turks improved mill
tary position but because of the
voice such a move would give
them In postwar settlements.
The possibility is given added
weight by the continuation OF
Allied Turkish negotiations in An
kara, which are generally viewed
here as having considerable signif1-
canoe over and above the question
of shutting of the flow of supplies
from Turkey to Germany.
If the Turks do decide to enter
the war, 1t was pointed out, they
could not pick q better time than
when the Germans are heavily COM
nlitted on both the western and Rus
sian fronts and therefore are not
in position to pour reserves into
the Balkans.
In connection with speculation on
Turkeys course of action it was re-
called here that Prime Minister
Churchill, in his May "a address to
Parliament, warned the Turks that
their present position would not win
them "a strong position at the
peace table.
1t was believed that the warning
might have carried considerable
weight in Ankara, coupled as it was
with confident assertion that the
Allies could win the war without
Turkeys help, but that her aid
would accelerate the process.

Terror and Despair
Grip Hungarians as
War Moves Closer
By the Associated Press.

LISBON, Portugal, June L.
News trickling through from in
side Hungary suggests that a
majority of the population is
torn by terror, despair and
apathy as Premier Doeme Szto-
jays puppet regime tries to rush
through so-called social rev.
olution," repair the damage of
Allied bombings and mobilize
more men for the German de-
tense of the Carpathians.
Today is the deadline for removal
of all Jews from the Budapest area
into designated ghettos. What per-
sonal effects any of them may still
possess in the new locations, how
ever. is problematical. Recent weeks
have been filled with accounts of
systematic raids on Jewish homes
with the avowed purpose of selling
hidden valuables.
Ruthless Confiscation.
The ruthlessness of this confisca-
ton was indicated recently by Min
lister Of Interior Andor Jaross when
he said:
II emphasized that everything
which Jewish greed managed to pile
up during the era of liberalism In
the shape of properties, treasures
and other valuables has ceased to be
Jewish property. 1t is henceforth
the property of the Hungarian ma
ton"
Hungarian newspapers are filled
with numerous items reporting the
seizure Of jewels and gold and the
arrest OF jews who failed to declare
such properties. Newspaper stories
also mention the finding of big
stocks Of textiles and scarce food
stuffs hidden in the Easements Of
Jewish homes. The accounts say
that even rugs, porcelain and silver
ware are seized as ill gotten
wealth."
Confusion and Terror.
The confusion and terror accom-
panying this Nationwide harvest-
Ing OF loot is disclosed in another
type of news item which also is
strikingly widespread. These stories
disclose that hundreds of youths
have been arrested for "imperson-
citing detectives" threatening to
arrest Jews for hiding wealth and
either Selling what they find or
taking large brides.
Suicides apparently have been nu-
merous. These are typical items in
the Budapest newspaper Poster
Lloyd:
"The 81-year-old widow Of a
former State official, Karl Fanda,
has hanged herself"
The 83-year- widow OF En-
merich Berecz has committed sui

Six Jap WarshipsSunk
Or Damaged by Navy
Flyers Near Manila
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PACIFIC FLEET HEADQUAR-
TIERS, Pearl Harbor, Nov. L.
Six warships of Japan's a-shy
fleet were caught near Manila
and sunk or damaged Sunday
philippines time) by Hellcats,
Helldivers and Avengers Of the
United States Sd Fleet.
The raid, just disclosed by the
Navy, raised to at least 66 the total
enemy warships sunk or damaged
since Gen. Macarthur landed in
the Central Philippines October 20.
Striking at a mastering point for
counterblows against Gen. Mac
Arthur's invasion scene, the carrier
planes definitely sank a sub chaser,
probably sank a heavy cruiser, dam
aged a light cruiser and three de-
stroyers and wiped out nearly 200
enemy aircraft in day and night
attacks.
Sub Chaser Sent Down.
The sub chaser went down Of the
southeast coast Of Luzon. The five
others were caught by surprise in
Manila Bay. The big cruiser was
enveloped in flames and started
sinking after being hit several times
by bombs and torpedoes.
Equally important in relation to
the invasion operations on Leyte, the
Clark, Batangas, Lipa, Legaspi and
Lubang airfields were devastated.
These fields, together with others
under attack by Gen. MacArthur's
land-based bombers on Cebu and
Negros, have been springing air at
tacks against Yank airbases and
docks on Leyte.
Fifty-eight out of 80 Jap planes
were shot out of the sky over Clark
Field by day and three more at
night. Twenty-Five enemy planes
were shot down elsewhere over Lu-
zon and five while seeking to attack
the carriers.
100 Ground Planes Hit.
More than 100 enemy aircraft
were wiped out on the ground.
The japanese Air Force showed
less and less fight as the day wore
on. Only light opposition was met
over Manila while the heavy blows
were struck at shipping in the har-
Dor. Several cargo ships also were
damaged.
Our losses have not yet been re-
ported Admiral Chester w. Nimitz
said in communique late yesterday
which disclosed the raid.
Tokyo radio said 300 American
planes staged the attack. 1t also
broadcast extensive claims of dam
aging blows against American war
ships off the Philippines, saying at
least two carriers were sunk.
