The Waterbury Democrat., 1944-07-13

There was considerable specula- tion over what effect the Presidents open support would have on Wal. lace's renomination prospects. Hi, opponents, notably those from the southern states, are numerous, in. fluential and vehement and it t unlikely that MT. Roosevelt's en. dorsement will make Wallace any more acceptable to them.
 The fact is that many of tht southerners are rebellious against the President himself and his ex- pression for Wallace could con- ceivably add to their ire.
 Unlike the convention of l94O, MT Roosevelt this time will not have the power to compel Wallaces nom- ination. His pre-convention an nouncement of his fourth tern availability took care of that. In l940, Mir. Roosevelt let it be known that he would not accept aa third third term nomination unless Wal lace were his running mate and SO forced the Iowan on an openly hos tile convention.
 Wallace thus is an even bigger intra-party issue now than he waa four years ago. Though he has said nothing regarding his plans or as- pirations, he has talked the matter over with MT. Roosevelt and is re- garded as a certain candidate.

German paratroopers, among the toughest Nazi units, fiercely resisted the advance and fighting ragged at such close quarters that at some points the Americans were on one side of a hedgerow and the Nazis on the other.
 "At one place" McGlincy report ed, "a German reached over a hedge and tossed a hand grenade at a company commanding of1lcer and killed him. That's how close the fighting is."
 Other columns converging on St. Lo advanced to within two miles of the city at a number of points to the northeast, north and north west. The German garrison of 200 to 300 encircled in Le Meauffe, five miles north of St. Lo, was liquidat- ed and Hill ll5, two and a half miles northeast, was seized.
 The outfianking column seized St Pierre De semilly and drove on to- ward the St. Lo-Caumont highway after cutting road running east northeast to Berigny. Here, too the Americans were meeting stiff opposition.
 Northwest of St. Lo, American forces extended their bridgeheaC across the Wire river with a thrus west from Pont Hehert and, far. ther northwest, almost completed the encirclement of the Gorges in. mutations in a pincers advance or the road junction of Periers.
 One column reached the SeveI river near the village of Nay, thret and half miles northeast O. Periers, while the other, advanc. ing down the St. Jores-P -Periers road captured the villages of Le Plessis St. Germain and Gorges in a thrus to within four and half mile, north of Periers.
 Midway between St. Lo anc Periers, the Americans linked LII across the La Taute river and cap. tured most of the villaget of St Andre-De Bohon, four and a hal, miles south of Carentan.
 American troops in the west coas sector punched their way down botl sides of the La Haye-Du Puits-Les. say road to within little more than two miles of the railway ane highway hub of Lessay.
 Vesly, three miles northeast oi Lessay, and La Lande Mauduit three miles northwest, were among the inhabited places swept up ir the advance, which carried more than three miles south of La Have The Americans also fought their way up the northern slopes of Hill 92, northeast of Lessay and key tc the LeSsay area.
 Once Lessay, Periers and St. Lc have been captured, the Germans must fall back as much as l2 miles to a new line anchored on Cou- tances because of the lack of nat ural defenses in the intervening ter rain.
 All American advances were made under cover of a heavy artillery bombardment.
 British forces were reported tc have knocked out a large percen. tage of the 90 tanks which Ger. man Marshal Erwin Rommel hurled against them in two counterattack. southwest of Caen. At least S4 Ger. man panZers were destroyed o, damaged by Allied planes ant ground forces Tuesday and thu British successes yesterday prob. ably boosted the total for the 4S. hour period to more than 100 anc for the past five days to nearly 20( well over the equivalent of a full German armored division.
 Heavy fighting also was reported around Hottot, two miles below Tilly-Sur- -Seulles at the hinge of tn, British salient across the Odor river.

move merely was intended to in- crease the protection of the Battles, into which the Red Army was pour ina on broad front.
 Position Critical
 A United Press dispatch from Moscow said the German plight in the Battles now was regarded as "critical' and added:
 s'The Nazi command is desperate ly trying to slow down the Soviet offensive and now faces the im- minent prospect of being forced to yield the whole Baltic position in order to concentrate forces for the defense of East Prussia and Gen. tral Poland.
 Red armies now are slugging forward across the narrowest sector of the Baltic states, presenting the Germans with a grave threat to their forces in the Northern Bal ties"
 Officials of the Latvian Soviet Re- public in Moscow told the govern ment organ 1zvestia that German preparations for the evacuation of Latvia were in full swing. Indus- trial equipment was being loaded for shipment to Germany. Cattle were being slaughtered or shipped The Germans were rounding up all Latvian youths they could find and sending them to the front. The Germans were reported In flight ahead of Gen. Andrei I. Yeremenko's second Baltic army, which in new offensive, announc- ed yesterday, captured more than 1000 places and advanced up to P miles.
 Idritsa Seized
 The Russians seized Idritsa, de- priving the Germans of a powerful shield with which they hope to pro- tect the Latvian border. Its forti- fications constituted powerful and complex system of pillboxes, firing points, Inineflelds and trenches.
 The new push extended to 450 miles the length of the blazing bat tlefront in the east. There was nc slackDning of the drives beyond Wiino and through Central Poland toward Bialystok and Warsaw be-. yond.
 That was the situation confront ing the German military commen- atOr who said of the disclosure of the Nazi retreat:
 "The German detaching move. ments in the northern sector of the eastern front shall serve to improve the protection wall around the Bal tic area.
 Through a strengthening of the front line in the area of Polotsk. where the German lines were taken back, a link has been established with the front on the central sector, thus giving better protection for the defense of the Baltic area"

O0@e~.~~oS~s four German divisions in the in- terior. Patterson said. Their ef- forts help explain why some Ger man infantry had to walk 100 miles to the Normandy battle front. he added.
 Patterson said these overall diffi- culties had not prevented effective German resistance in Normandy and that counterattacks were forcing the Allies to fight bitterly for every foot of ground gained.
 Long range bombers based in Bri- tain and Italy continue to concen- trate on the enemy's critical oil facilities. and are forcing severe losses on the Luftwaffe's defending fighters. Patterson said. During two recent days of attack. 222 Ger- man fighters were destroyed with Q loss of e6 American planes. mostly bombers.

mine fields and, advancing 22 miles. seized more than 1000 towns and villages. Tn the first day alone, the Soviets killed 1000 Germans and captured 1900 prisoners.
 Stronghold Captured
 Chief enemy stronghold captured was Idritsa, 59 miles north of Polotsk and junction of the Mos cow-Riga and Narvapolotsk rail- ways. Verkny Kuino, 50 miles north west of Novosokolniki, Garusovo, Il miles southeast of Opochka, and Klyastitsy, 28 miles north of Polotsk als were seized.
 The attack, which cleared a 60- mile stretch of the Narva- -Polotsk railway, appeared to be taking the form of frontal assault on Riga, 170 miles west of Idritsa, while Ivan c. Bagramian's lst Baltic armw moved in from the southeast. One of Bagramian's columns at last reports was only little more than 100 miles southeast of Riga and the Baltic.
 The fall of Riga would cut of a score of German divisions in Latvia and Estonia from all escape except by sea and lay open Lithuania and East Prussia to attack from the rodth, as evil as from the east. Some sources believed other Red army troops soon would join in the offensive in the Narva and Pskov sectors north of Idritsa.
 Bagramian pressed his assault on Daugavplis with advances through Dukshty, 26 miles south, and In- durke, 63 miles southwest, after beating O. 10 consecutive enemy nter-attacks in different defiles and lake country.
 Achievements
 The Germans continued to throw fresh achievements into battle southwest of Daugavpils without avail. One security and two infantry divisions were among those making their first appearance at the front yesterday.
 While street battles with the en- circled enemy garrison of Wilno went into their sixth day Gen. Ivan D. Cherniakhovsky sent other clements of his 3rd White Russian army plunging on through Lithu- ania after liberating Yevye. 35 miles southeast of Kaunas, Its pre-war capital.
 "The enemy was compelled to abandon one inhabited place after another" the Soviet high command reported in it's midnight communi- que.
 Gen. Georgi Zhakarov's 2nd White Russian army drove to within 36 miles of the 1889 border of East Prussia with an advance through Ostryna. 2s miles northeast of Grodno.
 On the lower arm of the pincers threatening 0rodno. Marshal Kon- stantin K. Rokossovsky's army fofc- ed new crossing of the Szczara river and captured Novo Selki, 70 miles southeast of Grodno.
 Rokossocsky's forces also seized Kossovo, 75 miles northeast of Brest Litovsk, in a seven-mile ad- vance along the Railway from Bar anowicze, while his southern column stormed the defenses of Pinsk af- ter capturing 0ornoye, four and a half miles to the southeast.

called $60-at-60 pension plan which

In the September issue of the as

The statement added that the

less than is now received from the
sales tax.
with limited funds, the state

action would be either to lay off
state employees or unreascnably re-
