War

Smelling the monastery but this
was not substantiated.
In Full Flight
The Nails on the Russian front
failed to cling so tenaciously 10
positions threatened by the Red
Army. On the northern sector Of
the vast front the Germans were
reported in full flight along the
banks OF frozen Lake Peipus. So.
Wet cavalry and light armored
units pressed at the heels OF the re-
firing Nazis and were reported
within 30 miles OF Pskov gateway
to Latvia. The Soviet forces har-
assing the Nazi rear were part of
forces which took Polna, AZ miles
north OF Pskov.
Germans who managed to es-
cape when the Soviets captured
the rail hub OF Luga. south Of Len
ingrad, were forced to retreat to
the southeast in the direction 81
Staraya Russo where they were
in imminent danger OF being trap.
ped in a pocket.
White Away
Southwark in the middle Dnieper
region the Soyiets continued 20
white away at the 10 divisions of
the trapped German Eighth Army
and drew their ring OF enlightenment
tighter around the enemy troops
facing another Stalingrad.
Bitter armored clashes resulted
when the Nazis persisted without
success in attempting to crack
the outer fringes of the Soviet ring
OF enlightenment to provide an es-
cape route for their trapped com.
rades.
The story from the Southwest
Pacific was one of relentless aerial
bombardment in the almost unbro.
ken chain OF Allied aerial assaults
to reduce the Jap base OF Rabaul
to ashes. Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur's headquarters said that
the three airdromes, Rapopo, To-
bera and Vunakanau. at the enemy
New Britain Island base, were
blasted by bombers OF all categor-
les from the Solomon Islands.
Some 1874 tons OF high explosives
were dropped on airfields. Shat
tering explosions and numerous
fires resulted. There was little op-
posing from the dwindling Jap air
force there. Three Nipponese in
terceptors were shot down and It
is believed the Macarthur men got
five more.
Two Strikes
Two strikes were made by four
motored Liberators into the occu-
pied Netherlands East Indies. In
one assault the airdrome at Ken
dari, on the island Of Celebes, was
pounded heavily. Fires were Wis
ible for 60 miles. The other at
tack was made on Dill. on the
Dutch-Portuguese Island OF Timor.
United States Marines in the
Bergen Bay area on the northwest
coast OF New Britain expanded
their drive both TO the south and
east. They forced a rapid with
drawal of Jap troops and destroy
ed quantities of enemy equipment
and ammunition.
Unconfirmed reports via Stock
holm said the Russians again had
bombed several places in Finland
as Finlands social Democratic
party was said to be exerting pres
sure on the Helsinki government
TO negotiate for peace.

RANGES REMAIN
GREEN IN STATE

According to the Sept. l,
Montana range and livestock re-
port, rain during August, about
70 per cent above normal, caused
ranges to become green again.
In the western hall of the
state, range grass is good but is
curing too slowly and is remain
ing too green to put a hard fin
iSh on livestock. Generally sup
pies of grass on winter ranges
are good, excepting for Glacier,
Toole, Liberty and Hill counties.
In some counties in the south
eastern part of the state, lack
OF moisture since mid-July has
made grass very dry and brittle.
Hay and feed grain supplies for
water are generally good with
a few exceptions.
Cattle are in good market
condition and early cattle move
ment has been much heavier
than usual this year. Sales have
been mostly of dry cows and
heavy steers and there has been
practically no outside demand
for light steers and stockers.
Sales through stockyards have
been heavy. Feeder buy has been
as light to date as a year earl
Ter in the case of calves.
Sheep condition is good. The
trend in liquidation of sheep is
continuing with heavy market
ings expected this fall. Contract
ing of lambs has generally been
light, although in some sections
there has been considerable
local activity.
