Wilmington Woman TO Sponsor Ship
T0Be Named For Heroic Navy Seaman

November II and 10, 1912.
Courageously refusing to aban-
don his gun in the face of an
unrushing japanese torpedo
plane, Williamson, with cool
determination and utter disre-
gard for his own safety, kept
blazing away until the hostile
craft plunged out of the sky
in a flaming dive and crashed
On his station. His grim per-
severance and relentless de-
votion to duty in the face of
certain death were in keep
ing with the highest tradi-
tons of the United States
naval service. He CALAMITY
gave up his life in the defense
of his country
In addition to the Navy
Cross, the Purple Heart medal,
and the Presidential Unit CT
tation to the USS San Franz

American Defense Service
medal, and the Asiatic-Pacific

BIG AIR FLEETS
BACK IN, SKIES

LONDON, Aug. o. Rl AS
clouds which had blanketed the
western front for 48 hours rolled
away, Allied airmen renewed late
today their humiliation of Field
Marshal Guenther Won Kluge's re-
treating German armies and 1tal-
ian-based American heavy bomb
ers struck again at German oil
supplies.
Allied aerial might which had
been hobbled by the worst weather
since D-Day took to the air as
the skies began to clear. Norman
dy-based fighter bombers swept
over an area from Lisieux to the
Seine and from Dreux to the sea
blasting German troops now be-
ing squeezed into a tight box on
the ground.
While the clouds had given re-
spite to the retreating enemy in
France, Italian b d Flying
Fortresses and Liberators smashed
into Germany and Austria earlier
in the day, hammering synthetic
oil refinery at Odertal, 80 miles
southwest of Breslau, and other oil
installations in the Vienna area.

air force continued the aerial as

COW announced tonight.
Two orders Of the day from Pre-
mier Stain and the regular Sow
let midnight communique confirm
ed the savage new offensives which
the Germans had been pessiTnis-
tically reporting since last week
end, and Rodion Y. Malinovsky
and Feodor Tolbukhin had swept
up more than $50 towns in the
initial stages Of their attack.
Quiet since April, these two pow
erful armies apparently were aim
ing at the Ploesti oilfields, Ger
many's chief source of vital petro-
leum, now 160-odd miles southwest
of the battle lines. Already the
Russians were less than IS miles
from the Danube river.
On other fronts of a line now
stretching 1,400 miles in north
south zigzag, the Russians an
nounced steady successes in an
apparent campaign to slice War
saw and northwest Poland off from
East Prussia and extension of a
sharp pointed wedge into the cen
ter of Estonia while combating
terrific German counterattacks on
the Latvian gap position west of
Riga.
Between Warsaw and Bialystok
the Soviet communique announced
capture of the large highway juno
ton town of Zambrow, IA miles
southeast of Lomza. This repre-
scented an advance of IS miles
from previously reported positions.
Nearer to Warsaw, the Russians
thrust suddenly northwestward and
cleared the Germans from the
south bank of the Bug river along
a 4O-mile front from Olekhny to
Slopsk. Moscow dispatches said
this drive threatened to outflank
Warsaw by pushing to the conflu-
ence of the Bug and Vistula rivers
% miles northwest of the old Po-
lish capital.
Already it was furthering the $50
lation of East Prussia, where an
unofficial Soviet account said the
border finally had been crossed

Bulgarian Minister Says
Entering War Mistake

Draganov asserted. Though
she is nOminally in state of
war with Britain and the Unit
ed States, this is not due to the
wish of the Bulgarian people to
intervene in the world con-
fIict."
Draganov told the parliament
that his government was pursu-
ing a policy of friendship with
Russia, with which NIlgaria is
not at war, and that she hoped
her present attitude would be
understood by Britain and the
United States.
There had been speculation
that Draganov might announce
a Bulgarian decision to get out
of the war. The fact that he
did not was put to propaganda
use by DNB, German official
news agency, which said in
broadcast that Draganov in his
speech had stressed Bulgaria's
relations with Germany.

LONDON, Aug. 22-(P)-Bul-
garian Foreign Minister Par
van Draganov told parliament
in Sofia today that Bulgaria's
declaration of war ON the Unit
ed States and Britain had been
a mistake and that the gov
eminent of Premier Ivan Bag
rianov now was looking for
"ways and means" to make
peace.
His short speech was broad
cast by the Bulgarian radio and
recorded by Allied monitors.
Following the line taken by
Premier Bagrianov in a speech
to parliament last Thursday,
Draganov blamed the regime
of former Premier Bogdan FL
low for involving Bulgaria In
the war on the side Of Ger
many.

take part in this world war,

RATIFICATION DUE
Senator's See Prospects
Of Early Agreement
By Delegates
WASHINGTON, Aug. %

WASHINGTON, Aug. %
-(P)-Three senator's de-
c1ared today they saw bright
prospects for the Dumbarton
Oaks conference, as British,
American and Russian dele
oates settled to the task of
framing a proposed interna-
tional organization to keep
the peace.
Predicting Senate approval OF
4he conferences work, Chairman
Connally tD-Tex) of the Foreign
Relations committee said that the
prospects for success were Sin
deed propitious." The present con-
ference. he told the Senate, will
he followed by another that brings
together higher offices of the AL
lied governments.
Senator Vandenberg (R-Mich) de-
clared the conference convened
under ''the happiest possible pros
poets of good effect and added:
IF this world can not organize
TO assure permanent peace, the
weapons of the next war will put
an end to civilization. Only those
blind to the realities of global sui
eide can fail to make practical
effort to prevent such a develop
ment."
In another Senate speech, Sena-
tor Downey D-Calif) asserted that
great events" are in the making
at the conference-Which he de-
scribed as fulfilling the prophetic
vision of Woodrow Wilson.
1T is the first formal move to
carry out the Moscow declaration
which obligated the United States,
Russia, Great Britain and China
to create a general international
organization ~" Downey said.
THE Senate by almost unanimous
vote already has endorsed the find
ings Of the Moscow conference, and
think we may safely assume will
likewise approve the treaty that
will develop out of it and through
the present and succeeding con-
ferences
As the conference work pro-
ceeded, John Foster Dulles arrlv-
ed in the capital to submit Cover
nor Thomas E. DeWey's idea on
a peace organization to Secretary
of State Hull at conference to-
morrow.
Dulles, foreign policy adviser to
the Republican presidential nomi'
nee. told neWsmen he did not know
whether Dewey's suggestions might
result in a change OF American
views because he had not seen
the formal United States proposals.
At the conference itself, there
was an exchange of views behind
closed doors, with the chief Rus
sian delegate, Ambassador Andrea
A. Gromyko, leading off. Gromy-
kO spent an hour and 10 minutes
discussing Soviet suggestions,
Michael McDermott, American
spokesman for the conferences, re-
ported.
One Of Gromyko's main tasks.
1t was understood, was to clear
up different impressions caused by
translation Of the Russian views
into English.
McDermott declined to 60 into
any details of the Russian plan, but
he said Gromyko was interrupted
several times with requests for
elarlflcation. The Russian did not
ogress, however, and notes were
made Of the queries SO that they
can be taken up later.
The American delegate, Under
secretary of State Edward B. Stet-
llAuS, was chosen permanent

SWITCHES EMPHASIS
Expansion OF Enterprise
Meets With Approval
OF Committee

WASHINGTON, Aug. ~.
that empha-
sis should be placed on ex-
banding peace time enter
prise, rather than anticipat-
ing large unemployment, the
House Ways and Means COM
mittee today scrapped Senate
approved plans for the gov
eminent to train discharged
war workers for new jobs.
It also struck from the Senate
legislation a provision for trans
porting civilian workers and their
families, at government expense
up to 5000 a family, back to their
prewar homes or to locations Of
new employment.
Meanwhile, the House after
seven days of debate, passed with
out 4 record vote legislation Gre
ating machinery for disposal of
an estimated $1oo, 900, 900, 900 of
surplus war property. Simultan-
eously, a Senate committee APP
proved broadly different bill TO-,
disposing SURPRISES. The House
measure calls TO- one-man direc-
ton of surplus property disposal
while the Senate bill would put it
under board OF eight.
After knocking out the civilian
retaining and unemployment Sec
ton of the Senste's rehabilitation
and reconversion bill, the Ways
and Means committee received a
motion by Rep. Mills D-A-k.) to
eliminate provision for paying I'M
employment compensation to s.
$780, 900 federal workers. A vote
was postponed until tomorrow.
Rep. Knutson (R-Minn), ranking
committee Republican, said sit
is time we began planning to ex-
pand private enterprise, to pro-
wide, sjebs, instead of spending an
our time thinking about unem-
p1oyment. We can deal with the
unemployment problem when we
get to it."
He stressed that Congress now
has a staff of experts studying
ways of adjusting postwar taxes
to encourage expansion of bust
ness and industry.
Rep. jenkins (R-Ohio) told news
papermen the cost of administer
ing the retaining and reemploy-
ment program, as adopted by the
Senate, probably would run into
billions of dollars" and "by its
very nature the system set-up by
the eliminated section would be
open to all manner of abuses"
The committee action, by a
IS. to S vote, does not disturb prior
legislation for retaining and re-
employment of war veterans, nor
the wartime retaining and reem-
ployment program established by
executive order and operated by
Brig. Gen. Frank T. Hines.
There appeared to be sharp
division in the Ways and Means
group on the proposal that govern
ment employees not be eligible for
unemployment benefits.
A compromise was understood to
be favored by some members to
provide that only those govern
ment employees earning less than
$4,000 a year should be eligible
for unemployment benefits.
The Senate bill, sponsored by
Senator George D-Ga), leaves to
the states the determination of the
amounts and duration of such
benefits. The administration has
recommended a uniform minimum
of 26 weeks of payments running
up to $40 weekly.

ALLIED FORCES
NEAR MARSEILLE
Other American Columns
Head Inland To Reach
Wide Rhone Valley

ROME, Aug. %. = up =
American and French troops,
plunging westward beyond
the encircled and doomed ma
val base of Toulon on the
Mediterranean, were fighting
forward tonight within three
miles of Marseille, Frances
second largest city, brushing
aside Nazi forces declared by
Maj. Gen. Alexander M. Patch
to be "perplexed and stun
ned"
An American armored and infan-
try column, spearing toward the
wide Rhone valley - pathway to
northern France was roaring
along at a point eight miles west
of captured Aix-en-Provence,
which is Is miles north of Mar
sei1le.
Another Yank column approach
ed st. Cannat, 10 miles northwest
of AK. Still other American units,
advancing along both banks Of the
Durance river toward the Rhone
valley, were four miles beyond Les
Puy.
Yank reconnaissance elements
striking toward the northwest were
reported in the outskirts Of Apt,
highway junction 40 miles north
of Marseille and only 80 miles east
of Avignon.
The Nazis are in full retreat
everywhere in southern France ex-
cept for coastal defense forces
nothing out III ana near ToufonI
and on the immediate approaches
to Marseille, the commander of the
invading Seventh army proclaimed
in an order of the day.
General P a n exhorted h i S
troops to forget their fatigue and
the difficulties of maintaining sup
ply lines and to devote the last
ounce of effort to the pursuit of
the fleeing enemy.
''The opportunity for decisive re-
suits is in front of us and we must
and will move with the utmost
speed and effectiveness" he told
his forces.
The furious pace Of the Allied
push in from the Mediterranean in
recent days had expanded t h e
Seventh Army's grip on southern
France to more than 1000 square
miles, more than double the hold
ing of late last week.
Nazi troops trapped in Toulon
by the cutting of their last escape.
road along the coast to Marseillej
had pulled back into the center
and lower parts of the city, where
they were putting up fierce resis-
lance from fixed fortific cations.
They had depressed anti aircraft
guns to help shell French troops
in the northern and western parts
of the city.
CA German news broadcast ac-
knowledged that Allied troops were
fighting inside the fortress" of
Toulon)
The French, fired by the pros
pect of liberating the first major
city encountered by them in their
invasion of their homeland, fought
steadily and brilliantly from house
to house, wiping out German resis-
lance as they advanced.
Another hard driving Allied
column was knocking at the gates
of Marseille, Frances second larg-
est metropolis, after sweeping past
Aubagne, eight miles to the east,
where German infantry, tanks and
self propelled artillery attempted
to stem the rush.
Just as the garrison of Toulon
already was trapped between
vengeful French ground forces and
the blazing guns of Allied warships
pounding them from the sea, so
were whatever Nazis who remain
ed in or near Marseille faced with
the choice of fleeing or remaining
to be encircled and destroyed.
The sealing off of the big port
promised to be matter of hours,
dispatches said. 4
