Rome, Dec. 15.-CUP)-Canadian troops of the Eighth Army expanded their bridgehead over the Lamone river to 10 miles wide and two and a half miles deep today after betaing of repeated tank-supported Ger man counter-attacks.

 Captured prisoners reported more German endorsements were on the way.
 The Canadians so far have taken 800 prisoners and destroyed or cap- tured 12 tanks and assault guns.

Paris, Dec. 15-CUP)-With the mud of Germany still caking their boots and helmets and battle pay bulging from every pocket, hum dreds of CTS storme6 the Paris hot spots last night to let of steam while waiting transportation home on 30-day recuperation furloughs.
 The battle stained doughboys, released from fighting tension for the first time in weeks, janmed the glittering night clubs, shower ing down double handsful of 100- franc notes, drinking gallons of champagne and giving Paris its widest night since liberation.
 They sat in with the bands, scampered across stages and whooped raucously at the show girls. They stirred up innumer- able arguments with military po- licemen but none reached the fist singing stage.
 Final ythey trooped of to billets still singing and shouting.
 The group was the first to be sent to the United States on re- cuperation furloughs from the battle fronts. Some will be flown home while others will be carried on ships.

Athens, Dec. 15-(UP)- Strong British achievements still were pouring into Athens today as rel- atively small scale fighting contin- ued and official secrecy shrouded any peace moves.

 The British cleared two more square blocks of the KaIlipolis pe- ninsula in the Piraeus area.
 Royal engineers repaired the Athens water mains and restored weak flow of water in the central part of the city.
 The British endorsements were arriving by sea and air.

SEVENTH ARMY SLAShES INTO REICH Churchill Fav0rs Partition Of Poland
Endorses Reds Plan
 For Buffer State
London. December 15.

London, December 15. = (UP) = Prime Minister Win ston Churchill today en- dorsed the Soviet Unions claim to a postwar buffer state" carved out of eastern Poland and tacitly invited the United States to make public it's stand on the ex- plosive Russo-P Polish dispute.
 In a far-reaching defini- tion of the British policy on postwar European settle ments, Churchill told the House of Commons that Great Britain will support Russia at the peace confer ence in demanding territorial concessions from Poland in the east.
 In return, the greater part of East Prussia would be ceded to Poland, he said, suggesting also that there would be no objection from Britain or Russia, if the Poles also pushed out their western borders into Ger many proper.
 The British backed Russian plan, Churchill, said, envisages the virtu- al extirpation of the Prussian state, with the forced removal from their homeland of most of the Prussian Junkers who traditionally have been the heart and soul of the Ger man military machine.
 The Prime Minister revealed that the United States is fully aware of tn agreement reached between Rus sia and Britain on the Polish ques- tion and that to date 1t has not voiced any objection to it.
 He implied, however, thatt het ime has come for a dfinite American statement on the problem, and an- 71ounced that he would welcome" a conference with President Roose- welt and Soviet Premier Josef Stalin at the earliest possible date, and preferably in Britain. -s,ss-.ss,st.
 It had bene hoped that the leaders of the three major Allied powers would meet before Christmas, he said, but this proved impossible.
 AS q result. urgent decisions "on a host of vital matters stand at the bar and wait"
 Churchill indicated the decisions awaiting action by the big-three leaders involve not only the Polish question but also the prosecution of the war in Europe, which. he pre- dicted, can be expected to continue into next summer with the heaviest and costiliest battles still ahead.
 He estimated that 6,00000O to T. O0O,O Germans already have been killed in this war and predicted
