AS number of charters of troops
in Ell Centro, Imperial, Holtville
and Calexico, expire during jan
uary and February the group re-
viewed charter applications and
troop activities for the year. The
formation OF new troops and extern
sion of activities in the program
was discussed as we'll.
Boards Of review will be one of
the major items to be given impetus
during the coming year and reviews
will be made on more definite
schedule in all towns in the dis
trict.
ItSAlso was decided to hold dis
trict meetings every other month
with community meetings with troop
committees on the off-months.

however, to the more spectacular
Russian surge across the borders
of prewar Poland-borders which
Moscow already has claimed as
Russian territory.
United Press dispatches from
Moscow announced the arrival OF
General Nikolai Vatutin's vanguard
at the 1889 frontier after a sensa-
tional rush through the northwest
Ukraine, and supplementary advices
said the Red army had forced the
frontier at several points.
Soviet front reports said the Ger
mans were fleeing westward through
the swamps and forests in the bor-
der region, abandoning their guns,
equipment, and supplies in the dis
organized retreat.

able weather on the rim of the
Polish plain across which the Ger

The ed army advance to the
frontier in the Olevsk area of the
northwest Ukraine put the Rus
slams 100 miles from German held
Poland at the Bug river line and
$50 miles from German soil in East
Prussia.
The border crossing came as a
resounding climax to Russian
offensive waged unremittingly for
nearly six months which carried
westward from Orel and the Do
nets line in the lower Ukraine.
To the south on the rim of Vatu-
tins fast expanding salient, the
Russians were reported smashing
through the last German strong
points in the main defenses guard
ing the approaches to Bessarabia,
the province lying before Rumania.
The southwark push threatened to
cut the last major communication
between the Russians and the Black
sea and trap tens of thousands of
Nazis IN the Dnieper bend.

Newspapers Gird
For 4th Loan

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4. CUP =
In spite of newsprint shortages, the
nations newspapers have pledged
their full cooperation in the fourth
war loan drive, Thomas H. Lane,
newly appointed director of press
and radio advertising for the treas
ury's war finance division, said
Tuesday.
THE newspapers will go all-out
for the drive as they have in the
past-although the ads may be
somewhat smaller" he said.
He said several meetings have
been held here with representatives
OF the American newspaper pub
fishers association and other news
paper groups to discuss promotion
for the forthcoming drive which
starts Jan. 49,
Lane has just returned from a
series of regional meetings in Buff
falo, Chicago, San Francisco, st.
Louis, and Memphis at which the
publicity campaign was discussed
with representatives from the 48
states.
"All reports are very encouraging,
and 1 am confident that the indi-
vidual goal of $500, 900, 900 will be
reached as well as the overall goal
of $4,000 100000" he said.
A new feature of the rourth war
loan promotion will be greatly in
creased bond promotion by the
large national advertisers, accord
ing to Lane, who was formerly
affiliated with Young and Rubicam
Advertising agency.

Sugar beet harvest will not begin

beet fields showed good crop

NEW YORK, Jan. 4. (UP) = A
death toll of at least so was feared
Tuesday in the explosions which
shattered and sank United States
destroyer in the icy waters of lower
New York bay off Sandy hook, N.
j., Monday.
The navy said 1853 members of
the crew were rescued, and that
l08 of them were injured, six seri-
oUSly.
The number of complement of
such a destroyer was 200. In war;
time, however, the number is high

of records the navy said the exact
complement could not be ascer-
tanned.

the acreage was 144,618. This years

SIMULTANEOUSLY, VaJutlnS SOUTH
ern wing lashed out south of Kiev
to capture the highway and rail-
road junction of Belaya Tserkov
in a thrust aimed at closing off
the last escape routes open to the
huge Nazi forces pinned in the
Dnieper bend.
NAZI PERIL GROWS
Belaya Tserkov had been all but
encircled for days, but it's fall
opened the floodgates to a Red army
drive down into the Dnieper bend
that increased the gravity of the
German position with every mile
OF its advance.
Front reports indicated that Ger
man resistance was collapsing every
where in the path of Vatutin's tri-
umphant advance and that the
hard-pressed Nazis were straining
to extricate the bulk of their forces
from the rapidly CLOSING Russian
trap.
An estimated 100000 or more
German troops were believed pinned
down inside the Dnieper bend and
in the Crimean peninsula, with only
two main Russian railroad lines
still open for possible withdrawal.
The destruction of these armies
would mean disaster for Germany
three times as heavy as that suf-
fered at Stalingrad, where 100000
men were killed or captured.

Farmers mustered t h e r

fair to be the greatest in Imperial

The lettuce deal, queen of the
winter harvest season, slowly gath
cred momentum but was not ex-
pected to reach its peak until Feb.
ruary. The lettuce harvest was gen.
orally late in Imperial Valley this
year because the rain of early Sep

The navy gave no explanation of
the blast, stating merely that
there was no indication of the
cause"
Fears that the death toll may be
high were based on survivors
stories of seeing their comrades
burned and hurled into the water
when the first blast rocked the ship
as she prepared to set olst on a
mission.
AS nearly as the rescued seamen,
