U. s. PACIFIC FLEET HEAD QUARTERS AT PEARL HARBOR, Aug. 23.-Army heavy bombers, bas- ed in the Marianas, raided Yap, guarding the central approach to the Philippines, for the second time on Sunday without encountering en- emy opposition.

 Actions are also reported of an other raid on Nauru and an attack on Jap shipping at Marcus Island, in which a medium cargo vessel was destroyed and a smaller one left burning.
 Nimitz said that raids reported on Monday and Tuesday covered 9O,OOO square miles with but slight opposition, showing how Americans can fan out from advance bases.

S N TIE IS LIBERATED;
 FREE TOWN
French Forces of Inferior Descend on German
 Gdrisioned Village
By KENNETH L. DIXON

WITH THE FRENCH MAQUIS OVER 100 MILES INLAND FROM THE RIVIERA BEACHHEAD, Aug. 21 Delayed) High in the lower Alps the French Forces of the In- terior came out of the brush and woods, from which they get the name "Maquis,' and descended on the German garrisoned village of Snite. Today the town is liber- ated offer four years.
 Nearly thousand prisoners were taken in and around the town when the men of Maquis stormed the vil- lage at sunduwn and obviously sur rounded most of the Germans, who surrendered following conferences with Americans working with the French Forces of the Interior.
 However, one group of Army Ges- tapo personnel decided to fight it out behind barriers in the village square. Led by 20-year-old pat riot, who had been liberated only a. minute before from the Gestapo prison where he had been scheduled to hang the following morning, the Maquis charged the barriers, storm ed over them beneath the covering fire of their comrades, and rushed into the building to which the Ger mans withdrew.
 During the whole attack I saw but two casualties. One German was shot few yards to my left as he was being marched back a prisoner, and another was shot as close on my right; both apparently hit by their comrades, who had as yet not surrendered.
 After the celebration and eclipse of the garrison we found only eight wounded or killed from the whole attack.

NAzIS ARE
 SWEPT OUT
 OF PARIS
ShatkIes of Four Years Shaken Loose German
 Bonds Are Smashed

LONDON, Aug. 23.--Paris today shook loose the shackles of four years of enemy bondage and stood free once more, liberated by armed and unarmed tens of thousands of Frenchmen who swept the Nazis from the city's streets while the American armored might drew up around the capital city.
 A special communication from De- Gaulle's headquarters in London an- nounced liberation of Paris after four days of street fighting that recalled the scenes of Bastille Day when mobs in Paris once before struck the historic blow for liberty.
 This time, the special communique said, the fight was led by 50000 organized French forces of the in terior bolstered by thousands of more Frenchmen who joined in the big cleanup with whatever weapons they could find.
 Dramatic Announcement
 The dramatic announcement was touched off by broadcasts to French men everywhere as the triumphant strains of La Marseillaise" sounded again with the news of the French victory.
 No word has been received of ficially whether American troops have entered the city but the French communique says the French have seized all public buildings. won com- plete control of the city and cap tured all vichy representatives who had not fled.
 Tn French Hands Again
 Anyway, Paris is again back in French hands just four years and "A days from the time Hitler's troops marched in. The German troops were then at the flood tide of the conquest and entered Paris June IA, 1940.
 The capture of Paris is the first continental capital of full-fledged ally to be freed from German dom- ination. Rome was taken but Italy started the war as an enemy and is now a co-belligerent.
 The Patriot flare-up began with the strike of the Paris police as they seized the Prefecture and turn ed the famous He de la Cite into fortress against which German at tacks broke.
 DeGaulle conferred with Eisen- hover in France two days ago, pre- sumably on details for a civil affairs control of Paris.

 NOW AIMED
 AT RUMANIA
Red Army Only 180 Miles from Bu1hdresf-P
 Iation in Panic

MOSCOW, Aug. 23.--A new Red Army offensive, probably designed to knock Rumania out of the war and break Hitler's grip on the Bal kans, smashed forward on 150- mile front beyond Iasi to within l80 miles of jittery Bucharest and 155 miles of the Ploesti oil center.
 The official German broadcast said that the Russians had reached the beaches of Riga, the Latyian capital and the largest Baltic States city, indicating a new trap for the German 18th and 18th armies.
 Advancing over the bodies of 25,- 900 Germans slain in three violent days while 12,000 others trudged wearily back to prison cages, Red Army groups under Generals Malin- ovsky and Tolbukhin drove within 51 miles of the mouth of the Dan- ube.
 The Russians are gradually out flanking Warsaw and splitting the German forces between Warsaw and East Prussia. The Russians moved Is miles southeast of Lomza, a com- munications hub.
 Desperate German attempts to salvage her Baltic positions brought new tank attacks in the direction of Jelgava which controls road and rail routes to Latvia.
 Bucharest is reported in panic, and many of Premier Antonescus supporters are openly discussing chances of suing for peace.
