Nijmeqen Lifeline Widens as 100000 Germans
 Face EneirCIement

LONDON, Sept. 28.--The Nijmegen lifeline has widened into an offensive wedge within 25 miles of the walling off in Holland of perhaps 100000 Germans who may be added to the nearly million already written out of the battle in western Europe. But the loss of the Allies only bridge head across the Rhine to Arnheim, Holland, by British First Airborne Division troops, whose 2,000 rem nants trickled back through the cor- ridor. apparently dispelled hopes of a quick victory over Germany.
 Germans Fight Hard
 Fighting everywhere with skill. de- termiation and fierceness, the Ger mans threw the Third Army Ameri- cans out of their hardwon toehold at the entrance to the moat ringed fort of Friant, which guards the west bank approaches to Metz on the Moselle. The Nazis declared they also smashed the brigehead across the Antwerp Turnhout Canal, west of the Nijmegen corridor.
 Tanks Make Burst
 Against these three reverses, First Army Americans burst through pill box studded six-mile wide Hurtgen Forest. IA miles southeast of be- sieged Aachen, in powerful effort to tear open the blocked way to Cologne
 Canadian soldiers, wearing Mae West life jackets, attacked through canal lines aorund Calais and the channel coast. They worked across the western flats into the factory area converted into a stronghold, toward the port district.
 Attacks Increasing
 Almost everywhere. the Germans said, the Allied attack is increasing in force. from western Holland to Belfort Gap. They admitted the loss of positions in the heavy fluc- tuating battle against far superior forces" east of Lure, Is miles west of Belfort. They said strong Allied attacks started from the Nancy area in a northerly direction. and de- clared that new airborne forces were flung against Shertogenbosch, a scant ten miles ahead of the British push west from the Nijmegen cor ridor.
 Big Gun Duel
 The big gun duel around Metz, the German added, is deepening in pre- Jude to a full American attack against the fortress.
 The cost of these operations were indicated by Churchill who told the House of Commons that Allied loss- es in the invasion so far were 235 .000 killed, wounded or captured. Of these 145.000 were Americans and 90000 British.

 UNITED STATES PACIFIC FLEET HEADQUARTERS, PEARL HARBOR, Sept. 28-The American invaders of the Palaus, after killing 353 Japanese, have overwhelmed all but two pockets of resistance on Peleliu and have bloodily crushed the last ditch infiltration effort on conquered Angaur.
 Headquarters reported new fig ures on the Japanese dead, follow ing report yesterday that the American dead totalled 686, mean ing that the Tanks killed better than 12 of the enemy for every one of the invaders.
 The enemy's Angaur infiltration effort was timed with the weak air attack of the Nipponese on that island Monday night.
 Admiral Chester w. Nimitz said the Marines and Soldiers on Pe- leliu still have to take Umorbrogol Mountain and also wipe out small pocket of the enemy on the north eastern tip of the island.
 Two enemy planes attempted to bomb American positions on nearby Angaur Island the previous night but the missiles fell harmlessly into the water, east of the island.
 The communique listed, in vide spread air attacks, Corsairs strafed northwestern Babelthuap Island, the largest in the Palau group, Tuesday. Liberators and Venturas, Sunday, hit Paramushiro, downing one of l2 enemy interceptors and damaging seven On the same day, Liberators bombed Java, in the volcano group, shooting down four interceptors.

MOSCOW. SAYS
 RIGA NAzIS ARE TRAPPED

MOSCOW, Sept. 28--Soviet mili- tary analysts today described as "strategically hopeless" the posi- tion of German troops attempting to withdraw from the Latvian port of Riga.
 Along a hotly -strafed coastal es- cape road the Russian drive en- veloped an additional 200 Latvian settlements yesterd ay and ap- preached close to Riga on the northeast The German command apparently decided to move the bulk of its troops out of the Riga pocket rather than risk entrapment by a possible Russian breakthrough west of Riga.
 Meanwhile other Red Army forces, outflanking the key Uzok Pass through the Carpathians, reached the soil of eastern Slo- vakia.
 A decisive moment seemed near for the Fourth Ukranian Army. led by Col. Gen. Ivan Petrov, to crack the tough German Hungarian de- fense zone along the crest of the Carpathians in that sector.

 L. B. Chisholm, City Clerk of Wrangell, has also filed similar protest to the claims of the ab- original rights.
 Alaska Territorial Senator Norman Walker said nearly 60 percent of Alaska's revenues during the past seven years came from the fishing industry and if the reservations were created the Territory would lose the revenues from such areas.
 Ralph Bartholomew said the Ket- chikan Chamber of Commerce has been advised that the present plans to establish a pulp and paper in- dustry in Alaska will be abandoned if the petitions are granted.
 Arthur w. Hodgman, Acting Di- visional Supervisor of the Forest Service, testified that eight hundred million board feet of timber cut since 1909 are in the areas mostly claimed by the Indians who have never ob- jected to logging.

NEUTRALS ARE
 WARNED AGAIN;
 NO AID TO AXIS

WASHINGTON, Sept. 28-Secre- tary of State Cordell Hull disclosed that the neutral nations had been warned again they will lose Am erican friendship in years to come'' if they should give sanctuary to Hitler or other Axis leaders after the war.
 Several governments of neutral for former neutral states, notably Sweden, Turkey, Switzerland and Spain have either given an assur- ance they will not permit Axis nationals to flee within their bor- ders or that they are fully aware of the problems such action might provoke.
 No indications have as yet been received on the views of certain of their governments Hull said in a news conference. Secretary Hull said the State Department is continuing to im- press upon those governments whose policy has not yet been clearly stated the importance it attaches to taking adequate meas ures to insure Axis war criminals do not find asylum in those coun- tries"
 Hull disclosed this Government is supported in the demands by both the British and Soviet Gov ernments.
 A few hours before Hull spoke, the Soviet Embassy here sponsored a statement for publication that "Russia's participation in this set clement of this war provides the best guarantee that Hitler not es- cape punishment after the war as the Kaiser did after the last war"

 Quebec Report

LONDON, Sept. 28-Prime Min ister Winston Churchill warned the House of Commons today that the war against Hitler might well con- tinue into 1945.
 T depreciate very much that the people are being carried away by premature expectations of early cessation of the fighting" he de- clared in his full dress report of the Quebec conference on the war in general
 T shall certainly not hazard a guess as to when the end may come. Many persons with the high est technical attainment of knowl- edge and responsibility have good hopes that it will be over by the end of 1914 On the other hand, no one, certainly not I, can guar antee that several months of 1945 may not be required"
 Polish Russian View
