in ambush. When Soviet correspon- dents and generals reached the spot, they found an inextricable mass of dead men, carts, horses, rifles, guns, trucks and supplies stretching near ly two miles.
 One Russian general was said to have commented that no army in the world lever has suffered such defeats as has befallen the Wehr- macht."
 During the worst days of 104l," he added, i've didn't live through one tenth of what the Germans are experiencing today"
 Thousands of Germans were said to be roaming the forests between Orsha and Borisov, some dressed in peasants garb.
 Of the p divisions so far account ed for in the White Russian offen- sive, five were encircled and de- stroyed at Vitebsk, five more were surrounded and were being annihil- ated in Bobruisk and 12 others were being pounded to pieces by Soviet troops, tanks and guns between the Dnepr and Drut rivers west of Mo- gilev in a slaughter reminiscent on Stalingrad.
 Mogilev fell only yesterday, but its airfields already were being used by Soviet fighters.
 Cherniakhovsky also sent a spear head south through Krugloye on the west bank of the Drut river in an attempt to link up with column from Gen. Konstantin K. Rokassov- sky's 1st White Russian army that seized Klichev, some 50 miles to the south.
 A junction of the two columns would complete the encirclement of the remnants of 12 shattered enemy divisions which yielded Mogilev, 40 miles south of Orsha, yesterday after theilr commander, Lieutenant General Bamler, and his stad were captured.
 Seize Osip0vichi
 RokoSSovsky's army also seized Osipovichi, 26 miles northwest of Bobruisk, in ramming the southern end of the Soviet pincers to within 60 miles southeast of Minsk and opened a drive toward the Barano- wicze gap, 75 miles southwest Of Minsk.
 Smashing 36 miles west of Bob- ruisk, the Russians captured the railway station of Stari Dorogi and pressed on toward BaranowicZe, some 90 miles to the west. It was through the Baranowicze gap in the Pripet marshes that both Hitler and Napoleon struck at Moscow and that Russian armies throughout history have driven toward Brest- Litovsk, Warsaw and, beyond, Der lin
 At Bobruisk, RokosSovsky's Le- gions relentlessly frightened their ring of encwclement about the remnants of five enemy divisions Bombs and shells rained constantly on the doomed garrison and its an- initiation and the liberation of Bobruisk were expected momentari- ly.
 Col. Gen. Georgi D. Zakharov's End White Russian Army wiped out the German 18th infantry division -l5 900 men at full strength-and inflicted heavy losses on 12 other enemy divisions in nberating Mogi- lev, city of 100000 and last fortress in the White Russian "Fatherland line" yesterday.

 Forward clements of the Ameri- can column drove seven miles be- yond captured San Vincenzo to the junction of the coastal highway with the Castagneto Road, striking through a maze of felled trees, booby traps and mine fields sown by the retreating enemy.
 Less than four miles inland, other American units captured Castagneto after a 3 1-2 mile advance from Sassetta and wiped out company of Nazi troops that attempted to in- filtrate their lines five miles east of Sassetta.
 Farther to the east, the Americans sent armored spearheads racinb through monticiano and on past that town to within l2 miles south west the key junction city or Siena. French units on their right flank thrust up toward Siena from the southeast, advancing as much as four miles to capture Monticchiello, Pienza, and Montalcino, the latter 20 miles below Siena.
 Central Front
 On the central front, British 8th Army forces hammered out small advances against stubborn enemy resistance in the hills above Perugia and Chiusi. Two British columns drove forward about three miles along parallel roads northeast of Perugia to within 12 miles of Gubbio, while other units moved up the west bank of the Tiber to high ground about three miles northwest of Perugia.
 La Foce, eight miles northwest of Chiusi, and Chianciano, 2 1-2 miles north-northwest of the city also wer taken.
 Adverse weather yesterday re- stricted Allied Air Force support to the advancing ground troops, but formations of fighters and fifhter- bombers flew through the low hanging clouds to bomb and ma chine-gun enemy road lines and transport targets.

In line with the bridgehead re- port of endorsements moving up to the front, aerial reconnaissance showed the Germans were shifting troops On a major scale from east ern France and Germany itself for an expected effort to smash the Allied foothold in France.
 'The Germans are making a deS- perate atetmpt to move up infantry by daylight, but they are being slaughtered by the Royal Air Force. ' a field report said.
 With improving weather Allied planes were swarming over the front in relays. and a correspondent reported a continuing rumble as our heavy bonbers pummel the German roads behind the front"
 The British armored wedge driv- en across the O0on river below Caen was reported to have stood off all German attempts to throw 1t back. The Nazi armored attacks were made mostly by tanks striking in herds of 20 to 30, with the total number mobilized against the spear head estimated at l50.

 Countering the threat, hundreds of British four-engined bombers smashed last night at the strategic eastern France railway centers of Metz and Blainville, through which the reinforcements were moving. Twenty bornbers were lost.
 The heavy troop movements were interpreted as an indication that the Normandy invasion represents Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhowers main invasion effort.
 The enemy was believed to have delayed reinforcing beyond the pres- ent strength of l5-odd divisions his forces in Normandy because of the possibility that the Allies may strike elsewhere in even greater strength. However. the loss of at least 90, 900 killed. wounded or captured so far in the Normandy campaign prob- ably forced the Germans hand.

 The raids followed concentrated attacks last night by large forces of British fcur -engined bombers and mosquitoes on & 35-mile section of German transportation lines across the Franco-Cierman frontier.
 Although the weather over the channel was clearing today there were no reports of new Allied aer- ial attacks or the robot bomb bases il, northern France, from which the Germans internationally sent the pi- lotless planes into souther England during the night and into daylight today.
 The night attacks by hundreds of resvy our-sngined and medium boy.,trs were centered on Metz and Bla' ? llle in eartern France near the German border, and Saarbruck- eI,, just inside Germany.

 Twenty heavy British hombers were lost in the raids on Metz and Blaiuyille, indicating that the A. lies had dispatched a formidable aerial force in an attempt to stem the flow Of enemy supplies and men to the front.
 Mosquito Eonbers carried out the attack on Saarbrucken, an import ant rail center in Germany's Saar Valley. and also bombed an oil plant north of Essen. All the mosquitos returned safely.

Berlin correspondent filed myster- ious dispatch stating that he was unable to confirm or deny "rumors circulating abroad that Dietl had been killed in an airplane accident.
 So far as was known in Stocke holm, there had been no such ru- mors and the dispatch raised the possibility that the Germans were paving the way for an announce ment of Dietls death.
 It has been confirmed that Dietl aR.G Cud. Gen. Alfred yodl. Adolf Hitler's personal chief of staff, were in Helsinski when Nazi foreign min ister Joachim Von Ribbentrop ar- rived there last week for confer ences that resulted in Finland's de- cision to continue in the war with German military aid.

Ribbentrop, unan- nounced and uninyited. alighted from a German bomber to inform the Films that they must remain in the war.
 This source said the Nazis moved an impressive display Of military power into the Finnish capital, in- eluding tanks. artillery and three big warships. among them the i0O00-ton heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen.

ligation you lay upon me"-but he spoke strongly, and calmly, and with confidence.
 Young Tom Dewey spoke with boise and assurance, and if he thought of his youth, it was not as liability. He said he would pick a cabinet "of the ablest men and women to be found in America" and they will each be experienced in the task to be done and young enough to do It."
 He did not grip the sides of the pooium, as less assured young man might have done. He did not become self-conscious.
 Occasionally he brushed well- manicured forefinger across a moist eyebrow. Occasionally he wrung his hands to clear them of moisture But he did not wilt, and he did not interrupt the flow of his deliberate ly-spoken, well-enunciated words to appease his discomfort by recourse to the water jug at his elbow.
 No Apology
 Young Tom Dewey did not apol- ogize for his youth. He seemed to consider youth an asset. Of the new deal he said, 1t has grown old in office; 1t has become tired and quarrelsome.
 But to young Tom Dewey, youth is not necessarily light-hearted. He spoke gravely, solemnly, when he said of Gen. George c. Marshall, U. s. Army Chief of Staff, and Admiral Ernest J. King, Commander-in-ch chief of the U. s. Fleet-"thank God for both of them" He spoke solemrly when he said the Germans and Jap anese must be taught to say in their heartS-"never again."
 He was not all solemnity, either. He got laugh when he said of the administration that flor years we have had men in Washington who were notoriously weak in certain branches of arithemetic but special ized in division"
 Young Tom Dewey had the good manners of youth. When something he said caught the delegates fancy, he paused dutifully while they ap- plauded. And while they did, he grinned delightedly.
 Histrionics
 When he wanted to drive home point, he was not above resort to histrionics. Once he clenched his fists, pounded the podium, curled his motile, moustached lips, and all but snarled-"do we have to have a war to get jobs!" The delegates re- sponded with satisfying chorus of No"
 Not once did young Tom Dewey mention his own youth and vigor, But his motif was newness and vigor. This country, he said, needs "a new progressive administration" !" Is America "old and worn out?" His answer was-"look to the beaches of Normandy-look to the reaches of the wide Pacific"
 In the course of time it was all overall but the cheering and shouting-and the moment came when young Tom Dewey could turn his back on the audience.
 The first thing he did was to pluck handkerchief from his hip pocket and mop his face. AS he turned to Mrs. Dewey, the first to grasp his hand. he pursed his lips and said "whew!"
 It was just what any young fellow would do who was just little tired and darned hot.

 Able Cabinet


 Able Cabinet
 Dewey promised that if he is elected "our government will again have a cabinet of the ablest men and women to be found in America" who will expect and will receive full delegation of the powers of their office"
 "rhey will be capable of admin istering those powers" he added.
 "They vii leach be experienced in the task to be done and young enough to do it."
 He charged that the new deal never had been able to solve em- ployment problems because it has never been for full production-has lived in chattering fear of abund- ance-has specialized in curtailment and restriction-has been sonsist- ently hostile and abusive of Ameri- can business and American indus try"
 "The problem of jobs," he said, will not be easily solved, but 1t will IlCHCE Uc SOiNCu dJ dAl NC SCu a new, progressive administration in Washington-and that means Re- publican administrator"
 Foreign Policy
 Of foreign policy, he said;
 we are all agreed, all of us, that America will participate with other sovereign nations in a cooperative effort to prevent future wars. Let us face up boldly to the magnitude of that task. We shall not make secure the peace of the world by mere words.
 "The structure of peace must be built. It must be the work of many men. We must have as our repre- sentatives in this task the ablest men and women America can pro- duce, and the structure they join in building must rest upon the solid rock of a United American public opinion"
