the uncontested finding as to the
future"
The court concludes, 1T follows
that the testamentary trust fails
slow growth Of the fund in the
favor Of the estate of the testator
For this reason. the heirs at law
Of the testator have interest in the
fund, and SO to adjudicate was far
as the trial court should have gone,
rather than TO have determined, as
It did. that the entire residual es-
tate ought TO be distributed among
them. Such an adjudication goes
beyond the issue submitted by the
pleadings. The judgment must ac-
cordingly be modified" All Of the
judges concurred in the opinion.
The city was dropped from the
appeal case by the high court
which ruled It could not be aggriev-
ed by the superior court decision in
a legal sense. The case was carried
on by the Waterbury Trust Com
paEy, and an appearance was en-
tered by the State Of Connecticut.
The heirs and their counsel were
as follows: Bertha Comstock and
Elizabeth Abel, Attorney Charles
M. Lyman Of New Haven: Lillian
Porter, who also Is executrix of the
estate Of the late Thomas w. Porter
and Katherine Miller, Attorney
John Comley of Bridgeport. Attor-
ney John d. Thoms represented the
incorporating heirs. Helen Porter,
Lucy Porter, Grace Porter. Nathan
Porter, Jr, as executor Of the es-
tate of Hiland Porter and Louis
Porter.
Attorneys Walter and David
Porter appeared for the bank, while
Assistant Attorney Generals Joseph
p. Smith and Harry L. Brooks rep
resented the state attorney general
in the case. Attorneys J. Warren
Epson and Lawrence Lewis Of Wa
terbury appeared as amicus curiae.

divisions-perhaps 100000 men

General Ivan c. Bagramian's First
Baltic Army sprang the trap on
German Gen. George Lindemanns
Baltic forces yesterday by smash
ing through TO the Gulf Of Riga In
a spectacular 32-mile advance that
cut all enemy land escape routes.
The only alternative to death or
capture for the trapped forces
would be a successful Dunkerque
evacuation to Finland or East Prus-
STA, an almost impossible feat UNI
der Soviet air and sea surveillance.
Bagramian cut the last railway
and highways cut Of Riga, capital
Of Latvia, with an advance TO Tu"

drove on another 10 miles to the
east to Klapkans, on the Gulf OF

ties also were swept up in the adj
vance and 1000 German Officers and
men were killed.
The encircled area totaled 10000
square miles - 5000 square miles
greater than the combined territory
OF Belgium and Holland - but
gradually was being compressed by
the LIST, End and 3rd Baltic Armies.
Gen. Ivan d. Cherniakhovsky's
drive on East Prussia. GeT1nanys

momentum following the liberation
of Kaunas, pre-war capital Of Lithu-'
ania and northern anchor Of the
German line.
Kaunas fell yesterday after a stub
born street battle In which 5000
Germans were killed and 100 cap
tured. Thirty-six tanks and self
propelled guns were destroyed and
IL tanks captured.
