Allies were battering against the
Hitler Line at many points after
driving through the first enemy de-
fense-the Gustav Line.
French Continue Advance.
South of Esperia, which the French
captured, other units of Gen. Al
phonse Juin's troops, driving west
ward beyond Ausonia, captured
Monte Lago and Monte Marino.
The fall of Esperia came as the
French battled forward along both
the northern and southern slopes
of 2,800-foot Monte d'Oro, one of the
strongest Nazi positions ahead of the
Hitler line. The advances put the
French in position to stab at Month
cello, 2l2 miles northwest of Esperia
in the heart of the area where the
Hitler line defenses guard the edge
of the Liri Valley.
An official source declared early
today that "our leading troops are
less than 5 miles from the Adolf
Hitler line at its strongest point"
This source said prisoners had
revealed that the Hitler Line had
been under construction for the
last three months by the Todt or
ganization, builders of the German
Atlantic Wall and Siegfried Line.

From aerial photographs it Is

"A continuous line of wire and
about IL miles of antitank bitches
join up the natural obstacles pro-
vided by deep-water courses which
intersect the plain. All houses in
the area have been demolished to
provide clear field of fire."
Hoping to slow down the Ameri-
can drive which already is jeopar-
dizing the whole enemy grip on the
vital Gaeta Point beyond Formia,
the Germans have destroyed every
bridge on both the coastal and
secondary roads in that sector, it
was disclosed.
Backing up the ground troops
with $500 sorties, mostly over the
battle area, the Allied Air Forces
yesterday blocked the main high
way from Rome to the fighting
front, smashed additional ports
where enemy supplies were being
landed and pounded the German
artillery and infantry virtually from
dawn to dusk.
Fifteen Allied planes failed to
return. Only one enemy plane was
observed during the day.

ATLANTA, May l8.-Reports on
racial, liquor and labor-manage-

Southern Baptist Convention for
consideration at Its final session to-
day.
Earlier this week the committee
on Negro ministerial education as
serted that "subvcrsive groups are
finding In the Negro fertile soil for
their destructive isrns too often
because Of the lack Of trained Chris
tian leadership"
The committee recommended that
the convention furnish 5000 annu-
ally to each Of 13 Negro colleges and
that whites and Negroes join in q
program Of improved education for
Negro ministers.
Another committee recommended
that religious liberty be made "a
condition Of international collabo-
ration" while the Social Service
Commission posed the question of
Shall we not then, distinguish be-
tween the issue Of social equality
and that Of political and economic
freedom, and deal with the latter on

who were standing near Eleventh

occurred, gave their versions of what
occurred, Variations in their stories
gave hint of the confusion that
prevailed at the corner during the
lunch hour on February 81.
Several of the witnesses actually
saw Mrs. Miller enter DR.. Lind's car
as it slowed down in front of the
department store. They also saw
Miller himself follow his wife to the
car and all of them heard shots.
Mrs. Miller has not yet appeared
in the courtroom. There was some
conjecture as to whether she would
take the stand in defense Of her
husband II she does, 1t was point
ed out, she would be exposed to the
cross-examination of the prosecution.
On the other hand, the Government
cannot compel her to testify directly
against her husband, despite her
close connection with the tragedy,
unless both she and Miller give their
consent.

She pulled at his left arm trying tc

At this point, the witness told of
Miller taking the white object
out of his pocket and placing 1t on
the seat.
Mr.. johnson said that the auto
mobile did not appear to stop at any
time during the few seconds when
the scuffle was going on and the
shots were fired.
Mr.. johnson declared he did not
see a weapon in either of Or. Lind's
hands at any time. H&told the
jury that directly after Miller placed
the second gun on the seat an officer
came up.

The witness then related that
Miller told the policeman: That's

I shot him in self defense"

tinued. "Mr. Miller told the officer
not to touch it. but to pick it up
with a handkerchief. / next saw

Under cross examination, the wit
ness said he was first attracted to
the automobile because he had been
watching both Miller and Mrs.
Miller.
II saw the lady get into the car,
and thought this guy was a de-
tective and was going to arrest her"
the porter testified.
Mr.. Welch asked the witness
whether he first saw the lady when
she was getting into the car, as he
had testified in the direct examirla-
ton, or whether he had noticed her
when she was in front of the store.
When she was moving Mr..
johnson said. II am confused by the
questions. Mr.. Murray confused me. .
Mr.. johnson said between 10 and
15 seconds elapsed between the first
and second shots.

Are you sure they were not like
this?" Mr.. Welch asked, as he
snapped his fingers twice, allowing
about a half a second or a second
to elapse.
"Yes," the witness replied.
The entire incident, according to
Mr.. johnson, lasted about Ia to 2
minutes.
The first witness for the Govern
ment today was Jack B. Trent, 80
Todd place NE, a Woodward &
Lothrop employe, who said he saw
Miller walk toward the Lind car
just as he was returning from lunch.
Mr.. Trent said, under cross-exam-
ination, that he didn't see any
thing in Miller's left hand that
looked like white envelope or a
white package" He admitted,
however, when questioned by As
sistant United States Attorney Dan
iel B. Maher, that he could not
say whether or not Miller might
have been carrying package in
his left hand.
