the new land-baSed attacks on the Marshall group Saturday evening while Dauntless dive bombers and Warhawk fighters blasted Imieji Island, Jaluit Atoll. No enemy fight CTS were encountered and anti-a1r- craft fire was intellectual.
 45 Tons of Bombs
 That night Army Liberators dropped 45 tons of bombs on Kwa- jalein Atoll and nearly ten ons on Wotje, while Navy Liberators, Ca talinas, Venturas and search planes struck Mile and Taroa in Maloe- lap Atoll with nearly 21 tons of explosives. A single Navy Liber- ator dropped three tons of bombs on Jaluit.

to the Tyrrhenian coast.
 Front reports indicated that the Germans had abandoned most ot their prepared positions inside Cas- Sino and were withdrawing into the hills behind that stronghold for a new stand.
 Simultaneously, Canadian units of the British 9th Army went into action along the Adriatic coast and smashed their way northward through stiff enemy opposition.
 Allied warplanes hammered the enemy all along the battlefront while strong formations of heavy bombers ripped up Nazi airdromes in northeastern Italy and the Aus trian Alps in an effort to hamper the flow of German aerial rein forcements to Rome.
 There was no let-down in the German resistance along the Gustav line, however, although front dis patches revealed that the Nazi de- lenses had been preached at several key points.
 United Press War Correspondent James E. Roper and Tom Treanor of the Los Angeles Times reported that Casino had become no-man s land, deserted by the NaziS and too well covered by enemy artillery for an immediate occupation by the ad- yancing American and French troops
 Roper reported that American patrols were probing into the streets of the mountain village and Treanor said tanks had approached close enough to fire down the main streets without drawing return fire from the Germans.
 Nazis Trying The NaZis, however, still were try ing to hold the hills behind the town to prevent an Allied break-through into the broad valley road to Rome
 French forces attacking northeast of Casino and British units moving northward on the American left flank were reported gaining in twin thrusts that threatened to turn the main enemy defenses. Allied heavy bombers pounded German airdromes at Aviano and Udine in northeastern Italy and Klagenfurt, in Southern Austria, scoring repeated hits on landing strips and barracks. Smaller raiding formations bombed the Adriatic coastal railway at San Benedetto, while fighter patrols machine-gunned enemy positions along the battlefronts. Fighter Plane Attack
 The communique also reported that fighter planes attacked enemy airf1elds in southern France Satur- day night.
 Eighteen German planes were de- Stroyed in aerial combat and a num- Der of others on the ground during these operations, at cost of four Allied planes.
 Light naval units also were in action in the Adriatic Sea Satur- day night, sinking @ large schoone, and a small tanker of the JugoSlav coast between Split and Sibenik.

Inter Racial Group
 Adopts New Program
Commission to Undertake Survey of Job Training in
 Trade and Business Schools, Factories

The Connecticut Inter-racial com- mission, through it's chairman, the Rt. Rev. Walter H. Gray, has an- nounced today the initial program of its activities which will be car ried out by it's newly appointed In- vestigation-Statistician, Frank T. Simpson, and through committees of the Commission, which have been appointed as follows:
 Conferences: Rabbi Morris Silver man, the Rev. Joseph M. Griffin, the Rev. John c. Jackson, Charles B. Cook.
 Education: Morris Perlman, Dr. Sabina Connolly, Mrs. Sadie B. Carethers.
 Complaints: Dr. Carter L. Mar shall, Judge Samuel Mellitz.
 The last General Assembly of Connecticut laid upon the Commis- sion the responsibility to investi- gate the possibilities of affording equal opportunity of profitable em- ployment to all persons, with parti- ctllar reference to job training and placement; to compile facts con- corning discrimination in employ ment, violations of civil liberties and other related matters;" ito report to the Governor biennially the results of its investigation, with its rec concentrations for the removal of such injustices as it may find to ex- ist.''
 Therefore, the following program has been adopted by the Commis- sion:
 l. Compilation of an index of or- garizations and officials in Connec- ticut concerned with developing in- ter-racial understanding and coop eration.
 2. A survey of job training in trade and business schools, indus trial plants, etc.
 3. A survey of qualifications for employment in major industries.
 4. Calling of conferences in major areas of Connecticut of groups con- cerned with developing inter-racial understanding and cooperation.
 5. Issuance at intervals to all in. terested groups of helpful informa- ton with particular reference to ef- fective programs in the State work ing for better relationships between various groups.
 6. A program of education for bet ter relations between groups through various means which may be open.
 2. Investigation of any complaints made to the Commission with sug- gestions as to avenues of relief.
 It will be the purpose of the Com- mission to endeavor to see that its work is on constructive plane. looking towards harmonious solving of the many difficult problems fac- ing our State with it's varied racial and other groups. The Commission feels that through education, intel ligent recognition of all factors in- volved, and conferences between

London, Feb. l-(UP)-George Bernard Shaw complained in a let ter to The Times of London today that Britain's taxation system is threatening to send him to the poorhouse.
 My haunting dread" he wrote, lis that some of my many admir- CTS by dying and leaving me mil lion or so may consign me to an aln1shouse."
 He said that before the war he was a prosperous playwright, able to pay his own way, but today he is just a tax collector working for @ commission of Sixpence u0c) on the pound ($A.
 'The more earn, the faster my means vanish into the exchequer, :" he said. 'The more productive my work is, the smaller is my commis- sion, so that all my business activi- ties are directed to reducing its productiveneSs to a point at which my commission will be increased from sixpence to four shillings.
 0A4NC 40OO 1IdVC Aldu VU kltG L1IG exchequer 25.O00 pounds a year to pay for war which would not have occurred if my advice had been talk en in 1919."
 Shaw presented a plan for re- vtsing the tax system, suggesting that all income over 25, 1000 pounds be tax exempt, the excess profits faY hn ahnIichAd anA iv1nn~an kn-n. be levied on three-year average rather than single years earnings.
 He conceded that his proposals would be denounced by rightist die hards who believe the only way to make the rich richer is to make the poor poorer" and by extreme leftists who fare equally convinced that the only way to enrich the poor Is to add the rich to their un- derfed ranks"

 s. E. of KingiSepp
 Southeast of Kingisepp. the Rus sians forced the Luga river, a nat ural German defense line, at several points to outf1ank Luga itself, a strategic railroad and highway junction controlling the only escape route for an estimated 100000 to 250000 enemy troops in the Nazi bulge below Leningrad.
 The Luga escape corridor, mean time, was narrowed to 37 miles with the Leningrad-Peko railroad. and the seizure by Gen. Kyril A. Meret- skov's troops to the southeast of Saviny Polyany, 2 miles east of Luga.
 MetetSkov'S men also occupied Ly- udatino, 25 miles southeast of Luga, 12 miles from the Luga-PSkov high way and 21 miles from the Luga- Pskov railway, and 40 other local ities west and southwest of Novo- gorod.
 The Germans attempted several counter-attacks in an attempt to retrieve the situation, but were thrown back with heavy losses. Sev- eral villages were surrounded and their garrisnos annihilated.
 Salient Blunted
 Red Army units blunted the Ger man salient south of Leningrad in & frontal attack that cleared the enemy from an unspecified number of villages below Lyuban. Here. too. Soviet flying columns cut across for est trails and marshes in advance of retreating enemy forces, annihilat- ing them unit by unit. Many pris- onerS were taken.
 Almost 1000 Germans were killed south of Lyuban yesterday, while booty included IT guns and 66 ma chine guns.

 Sorbo denied having struck Oe Kicked anyone. He claimed Hurli- han broke through the crowd like 8 w1Id man, not knowing what was going on." He said he saw Huni- han hit Koosa on the head with his nightStick, and he left his girl companion and went over to Huni- han to tell him mot to hit Koosa. because he was sick" Then, he said Hunihan struck him in the mouth"
 As both officers testified that La- Selva took no part in the fracas ex- cept for the disturbance in the reg- taurant, Judge Summa gave him the benefit of the doubt and grant. ed Attorney Coppet0s motion for a discharge.
 Attorney Coppeto then move6 for discharge for KooSa and Sosbo saying, T am satisfied that sorbo did not hit Hunihan, and that that ofncer can take care of himself. and did bit both these boys" We have" he continued, ''only the word of the policemen against the boys, and under the cir- cumstances they should be given the benefit of the doubt and dis charged" This motion was denied.
 A suspended sentence was im- posed in the case of Johnson, when Attorney George Lynch. appointed guardian ad ntum by the court, ex- plained that he was Q hard working boy and had no police record. John son denied having had any part in the fracaS except as a spectator.
 The incident was the second one of its kind to occur in this city in the past two weeks. On Q Saturday night two weeks ago, two policemen were injured in street clash which tied up trafic on East Main street for half an hour. Only one man was fined on this occasion, although five were arrested.

 The governor said that T have been a strong advocate of coopera- tion between state and federal gov- rnments in working out this conl- mon problem, but feel very deep ly that such an end is jeopardized when the federal government. with out regard for what has already been done in g state, steps in. with out consulting state authorities, and sets up Q new facility our con- cern is to prevent the eX-service. men from being pushed around from agency to agency and I am sure you would like to join in any cooperative effort to achieve this end"
 In his letter the governor ex- plained the Connecticut plan under which many committees now taking steps for the unemployment of vet erans in jobs most suited to their abilities, and pointed out that should the federal center operate with trained vocational advisors, psychologists and other experienced members, it would constitute only & duplication of the service already offered by the state.
