SUPREME HQ., AEF., Oct.
II (INS)-American First
Army assault units closed in
on the German city of Aachen
today in a fierce drive which
promised to level the Nazi
citadel after the enemy gar
rison refused to surrender.
Aachen, the first major city in
the Reich to come under siege, al
ready was a mass of debris and
flames as a result of terrific aerial
and artillery bombardments loosed
against the Siegfried Line bastion
in advance OF the final about
Yank ground assault.
FIRES RAGING
Enormous fires ragged in the
center of the city as the Ameri-
cans. commanded by 1t. Gen.

grips with the remaining German
garrison forces.

ing.

and vehicles fleeing to the north
east of Aachen through the last
remaining escape gap which was
narrowed TO less than a mile and
under constant fire of American
guns.

troops came out across the fields
before Aachen to surrender to the
Americans.
More than 300 Allied fighter
bombers carried out dive-bombing
assaults against targets inside
Aachen and then machine-gunned
enemy strongpoints as the Yanks
closed in.

Further. he believed that Mrs.
Smith answered. in general, the
description of the missing King
maid, Helen BOSNIAN.
This man followed Mrs. Smith
TO her home md obtained the
address on Stanford. Being
member of the same race, he was
able TO question neighbors and

"Mrs. Smith has confessed"
he said. II Owe her the respect
of her confidence and can only
say that the confession was
complete"
Asked whether the woman mad
explained her reasons for stealing
the child, the prosecutor said:
at was the mother urge
simply the love of children.
NO ONE ELSE INVOLVED
"She has retracted all the
false statements she made ear
Her. No one else was involved
In the kidnapping"
Mrs. Smith, who disguised the
baby with cosmetics to darken
its skin and faxed a large birth
mark on its forehead, did not
break until she was confronted by
Inspector George Mcclellan with
the clothing she had worn when
posing as a maid for the Kings.
These clothes were found in
her home. Mcclellan, who had
worked So hours on the case
without sleep, pleaded with the
woman then to discard her role
of injured innocence and tell the
truth.
MYTH TORN AWAY
Exhausted after nearly 20
hours of questioning, in which
she sought desperately to cling
to her fantastic story that the
baby was born to her in Chicago
last June, Mrs. Smith broke at
10 p. m. and said she was ready
to make a statement to Prose-
cutor Bowling.
Before that hour her question
ers had entirely torn apart the
myth she had invented to hood
wink her husband, relatives and
friends.
They proved to her that her
fingerprints tailed with those

equal division of the reward.
AS working men with families,
both were pleased with the re-
ward which will enable them

A THREAD or IRONY
But a higher duty impelled
them to phone the Times of
their suspicious. II was the
knowledge of the mental agony Of
the parents Of abducted Bobby
King.
II think the smiths are
much better OF without the
stolen baby" Mckee said Mrs.
Smith may not realize II now
but I don't think she could be
happy for long In the knOwi-
edge that she had broken a
mothers heart.
Il know how Mr.-And Mrs.
King must have felt when their
baby was stolen and how much
happiness they must have felt
at getting IL back"

ton which implicated a friend of
himself and his wife. Daisy. in the
kidnap plot-MrS. Smith. Only
