SUNRISE BLASTING
 ON REICH

LONDON, Oct. 10 < Numerous Allied air formations flew against the Germans at sunrise and con- tinuance was unprecedented by daylight.
 The air offensive was after the RAF effective heavy night attack on the Ruhr steel capital of Bo- chum. British heavies made a sat- uration attack on Bochum, a city of 100000, dumping thousands of fire bombs and profusion of ex- plosives which set fires that glowed for many miles through layers of clouds and fog.
 Bochum is large rail center, 65 miles northeast of invested Aachen.

CHURCHILL
 HA5MEETINC
 WITH STALIN
Prime Minister Talks 10 Head of Russian State
 for Three Hours

MOSCOW, Oct. 10.-British Prime Minister Winston Churchill talked with Premier Joseph Stalin for three hours in the Kremlin last night and conferred today with the British diplomatic and military staff before starting the second meeting with the Russian Premier.
 Ambassador Averill Hartman has been kept fully informed on the British delegation, although he was not present at the Kremlin last night. Churchill, it is understood, is presenting his views on the Euro pean question. Elsewhere 1t IS understood his views were fully en- dorsed before he left the Quebec conference and President Roosevelt. Latest indications are that his visit will last throughout this week.
 The Britons presence in Moscow coincided with two important state ments in the Russian press; one ex- pressed flat opposition to altering the principal of unanimous vote by the four major Allied powers on the International Security Council in case of aggression.
 The other statement disclosed a Russian plan for developing oil re- sources in the northern part of Iran. Some fields in Iran have been con- trolled by Britain for more than a century The country is now oc- cupied jointly by the British, in the south, and by the Russians, in the north.

LAPS MOVE TO CHINA

It is no longer military secret that the war in the Central Pa cific is five to six months ahead of schedule. Guam and Saipan were not supposed to be taken until sometime next year. Also the bomb- ing of the Philippines is several months ahead of the time table.
 However, along with this good news are some distressing facts about China, which nobody wants to shout about.
 One is that the Japs are trans porting more and more machinery to China and digging in there for a long war Apparently they figure that the Japanese homeland is in for steady bombing and eventual occupation, so they are transferring things to the mainland of China.
 China, they know better than all most anyone else, is a quagmire when any outside country tries to invade it, so it might take years for the British, American and Rus sian armies to root the Japs out, provided they themselves can get sufficiently entrenched.

LONDON, Oct. l0-The U s. First Army has surrounded Aachen and has delivered to the German garrison there an ultimatum to surrender within 24 hours or be conquered by the ruthless attack of Doughboys who have sealed off the Siegfried Line to the city wall.
 Troops tanks and guns are all ready building up 25-mile front inside the Reich for a break through punch toward the Rhine.
 The U. s. Commander told de- lenders holed up in Aachen that unless the city is promptly and completely surrendered uncondi- tionally, American Army ground and air forces will proceed ruth lessly with an air and artillery bombardment which will reduce it to submission"
 Aachen is now completely sur rounded by First Army men. the ultlmaJum Sdlu
 Earlier. two jaws of the Dough- boy wise chopped the German es- cape line from the city to only a mile in width and choked' it off with curtains of machinegun fire.

 Canadians in the bridgehead over the Leopold Canal struck forward after throwing back 30 Nazi coun- terattacks in four days of bottling Aachen in a fight to the death"
 Straighten German Bulge

 The Berlin radio said that the Allies have begun all-out assaults on the Brittany ports of Lorient and St. Nazaire.

Story of BaffIe of France Will Reveal
 Work of Air Forces
By JACK STINNETT

WASHINGTON, Oct 10.-On re- ports reaching here, it's too soon to judge the case of the three newspaper men and one artist who were reportedly expelled" from Normandy by the Ninth Air Force because they insisted on writing the general Battle of France story, rather than the air exploits.
 As a matter of fact, the part that the air forces have played in the Battle of France hasn't been stressed as much as it might have been. But what is more natural? Without excepting the bloody side show in Italy, there hasn't been anything so dramatic in the Euro pean theatre since Dunquerque as the land blitz of Normandy, Brit tany and beyond.
 For almost four years, the Euro pean war has been an air show. For the two years and nine months that we have been in it, the air forces had the only stories until we landed in Africa. No military observer to my knowledge had any conviction that Germany could be bombed out of the war. It had to be ground forces operating from a western front That western front came in Normandy and the accom- plishments of the air forces, re- gardless of their importance, had to take back seat.
 For the record, it can be set down here now that when the mili- tary history of this war is written, the European invasion phase will be marked as that in which the air forces really came into their own.
 In the files of the War Depart ment here are reports which now can be made public showing just what the Eighth and Ninth Air Forces did in laying the ground work for invasion and making the giant strides of our mechanized ground forces possible.
 For the benefit of those men in the Air Corps and ground army who have fought so long and vali- antly to bring the air arms to their present state, I'm sorry I can't list more of it. But consider few

BULLETIN--LONDON, Oct. 10 The Russian yang uards have reached the Baltic Sea south of Prussian Port Memei, severing all landward escape routes for some 15O,0O0 Germans in Latvia and Lithuania.

The W ashing ion Merry -Go- Round
By DREW PEARSON Lt Col Robert 6. Allen now on active service vrth the Army)

LOWVILLE, N. Y.--High-up Re- publicans aren't saying anything about it, but they are sore as blazes at one of the staunchest party members, Albert Lasker, for deserting to Roosevelt.
 Lasker, former head of one of the top advertising firms in the United States, was one of the managers of Warren Harding's s campaign in 1920 and, as reward, was made chairman of the Ship ping Board. He has been one of the inside advisers in the Republican Party councils almost ever since, and three times voted against Roosevelt. This time, however, he says he will vote for Roosevelt.
 Alice Roosevelt Longworth, one of his old friends in the Harding administration, has argued with him. So has Mrs. Ogden Reid, vice president of the Republican New York Herald Tribune. They have called him a traitor" and all sorts of things. But Lasker has stood pat.
 He says there are lot of things that smell bad about the Roosevelt Administration, and sometimes he has to hold his nose.
 Tn fact" says Lasker, tits a choice between holding your nose with Roosevelt, or closing your eyes to Dewey. But,' he concludes, i've never walked off cliff hold ing my nose"
