 German broadcastS said the two armies appeared about ready to launch a fresh large-scale offensive in an effort to complete the clear ance of the west bank of the Roer and perhaps carry across it. It. Gen. William H. Simpsons Ninth Army stabbed through to the Roer with the capture of Kirchberg, q miles west of Co., logne and a mile below Julich, and with 8 thrust beyond Altdorf, a mile and half to the south.
 Merzenhausen, three miles north west of Kirchberg, was cleared of Germans after an enemy counter attack had carried back into the town. The Germans also counter attacked with eight tanks and a battalion of infantry below Floss dorf, four and a half miles north west of Kirchberg, but were dis persed by American artillery fire. Street fighting continued in Kos lar, two miles northwest of Kirch- berg.
 United Press War Correspondent Edward V. Roberts reported from the front that the Germans were fighting desperately to stem the drive on Julich, whose fall would lay open the Plain to Cologne and Dusseldorf.
 Hodges 1st Army
 Hodges First Army burst into linden, Langerwehe, Jungersdort and Hurtgen, along an 11-mile arc bending to within three miles of Duren, and were fighting in the streets of all four. Both Jungers- dorf and Hurtgen lie on the east ern fringe of bloody Hurtgen for est, finally cleard last week end. First Army infantry also were storming Grosshau, less than three miles southwest of Duren. The Germans had dug themselves into the cellars of Grosshau, Casino style.
 Typical of the resistance along the first army front was the last ditch stand being carried out by 80 Germans still holding out in the Frenzerburg castle six miles north west of Duren despite all efforts of American tanks and infantry to dislodge them. :, GA London Daily Mail dispatch said two -.Amercian infantrymen claimed to have sighted the roof tops of Cologne from hill A miles southwest of the city)

Allied Ship Losses High

850 ships totalling 8,3S8,OOO gross tons were lost. This included the American losses of 422 ships ag- gregating 2,O53,0O0 tons and Bri- tish losses of 782 vessels totaling 3,695, 900 tons.
 It was in 1942 however, that the Allies were perfecting new devices against Nazi submarines, the most effective enemy arm, and by l94S the picture had changed drasti- cally.
 In 1943, the report showed, loss es dropped to SIP ships totalilng 2 SAG. 900 tons. U. s. losses were 234 ships. representing 1,049,O00 gross tons. while the British recorded 50! ships lost with gross tonnage or 1878, GOO.
 Actually, British losses by num- her of ships were the greatest Tn 1941 when they reached S92. The pross tonnage for that year, now ever was 3,O47, 900 as. against S,6so' . hoo for fewer ships sunk In !S4z.

 An official at the depot indicated later. however, that he believed the blast was touched of by the acc1- dental explosion of single bomb.
 "What appears to have happened" ;" he said, 'is that one of the bombs exploded and the rush of air acted as a detonator for all the bombs"
 Destruction
 The area for miles around reseln- bled a battlefield. Witnesses said the dump, most of which was url- derground, blew up in two separate explosions that hurled buildings, trees, telephone poles, COWS ana sheep into the air.
 The main force of the explosions apparently was contributed by Hyge RAF bombs which had been cached underground. The blast also scat- tered delayed action bombs over a wide area and military squads were searching for them in an attempt to neutralize them before they, too, exploded.
 Farmhouses and village dwellings collapsed like so many houses of cards. The earth caved in at one point, swallowing up farmhouse and barn. Huge bomb craters, the largest 250 yards across, appeared everywhere.
 Doors were blown open at Gov entry, 30 miles away, while even Coventry, 60 miles away, was shaken.
 At the depot itself, @ whole hill disappeared-and another appeared as though by magic. Sixty main- tenance workers were buried in un- derground tunnels, but most were believed to have been rescued. Rescue Squads Nine rescue squads, including American soldiers, responded to an emergency call. Fractured water and gas mains hampered them, but they worked through the night and morning digging into the rubble for trace of victims.
 Some rescue workers were forced to wear gas masks. A number tum- bIed into bomb craters and had to be pulled to safety themselves.
 Four maintenance workers dug their way from an underground tunnel of the depot to one of the largest of the craters and were loisted to its rim on ropes. They said six other workers had started out with them, but had decided to try another route and died while attempting to reach it.
 Crowds waited throughout the night around the devastated area, which was cordoned of.
 One witness told of seeing two dumps of incendiary bombs burn ing in an area "just like No Mans Land" Not even grass remained, he said. Another witness, a vet eran of some of the fiercest bat ties of the war, said the destruction was staggering

flank, the Soviets moved five miles southward along the same railway from Michalovce to capture Les- kovce, 26 miles east of Kassa, and drove five miles west to take zeteny, II miles, east of the Hungarian bor- der.
 No New Word
 There was no new word on the progress of the fighting for Buda- pest, where Berlin admitted Soviet penetrations into the streets of Eger, 54 miles to the northeast and Miskoloc, 81 miles above the Hun garian capital.
 Large-scale, patrol clashes and German counter-attacks were re- ported from the western Latvian front, where Moscow reorted that about 1,2OO Nazis were killed west of Jelgava yesterday.
 Meanwhile, a Red Army Spokes- man, Major General Zamiatin, said the Russian and Allied armies had reached their jumping posi- tions" for the grand offensive to knock Germany out of the war.
 His forecast was echoed in Berlin by Nazi spokesman, Lieutenant Colonel Alfred Won Olberg. who warned that the German high com mand is awaiting grand-scale Russian offensive all along the east ern front.

Pearl Horbor
 |Quiz Wones
(Continued from Page D

(Continueo rom Page D porter of Wa rand Navy Depart ment secrets, says, the Navy Board which has been investigating Pearl Harbor came up with such re- port that "there will be no court martial of Admiral Kinmel." That report probably reflects in part the feeling widely shared among senior Navy officers that Kiinmel has borne an unjustly large share of blame for what happened at Pearl Harbor three years ago next week.
 The Journal is not SO confident that Short will escape court mar tial but 1t implies that he could not be convicted if he were brought to trial. Both men are understood to be ready-even eager-to defend themselves before military courts.
 Astonishing Situation
 That situation probably will astonish readers. When the com mittee headed by Associate Su- preme Court Justice Owen J. Rob- erts reported on Pearl Harbor a few weeks after we got into the war, three facts stood out.
 l. Japan had dealt us a crippl- ing blow in Hawaii.
 3. Kimmel and Short were held up by the report to have failed in fulfllment of their obligations.
 3. Both men had been sum- marily relieved of duty.
 But there was more to the Rob- erts report, much of it tending to diffuse responsibility for the disas- ter so widely as to make it impoS- sible to try any two or three in- dividuals without raising questions of responsibility involving many others. However much or little re- sponsibility others may have had | for American military unprepared- ness at Pearl Harbor, the statute of | limitations now would prevent any but Kimmel and short from being | tried.
 If either officer were convicted of dereliction and others were tnvolv- ed, those others could suffer no punishment whatever because the time within which they could be arraigned has now expired. Correct Assumption
 It appears, therefore, that the journal is correct in assuming that there will be no court martial or either Kimmel or Short. The only way the whole story of Pearl Har- bor ever is likely to be told would be through a congressional investiga- tion-and that scarcely could take place without administration sup port.
 Both Kimmel and Short had been warned on Nov. 27, 1941 that nos tilities were momentarily possible. 1" But the Roberts report cited these contributory causes to success or Japan's surprise attack"
 1. Restrictions which prevented effective counter-espionage. tOur counter espionage agents were for- bidden by law or regulation to tap wires or otherwise check cable mes sages passing between Japanese agents in Hawaii and Japan. Just why those regulations were enforc- ed at such a time never has been explained.)
 :2. Emphasis in warning mes sages on the probability of aggres- sive action in the Far East and on anti-sabotage measures. CFnat means that our military intelligence really had no suspicion or belief that Japan would strike at Hawai-. The blow actually was expected III the Eastern Pacific.
 8. Failure of the War Depart ment to reply to the messages (from Hawaii) relating to the anti sabotage measures instituted by Gen. Short"

Stettinius To Be Endorsed
Continued from Page D


 Although the principal burden of the task now falls upon Stettinius, President Roosevelt still hopes that Hull will be able to contribute to it's ultimate formation. In accepting Hull's resignation, MT. Roosevelt told the veteran statesman:
 FDR Statement
 T shall continue to pray that you as the father of the United Nations may preside over its first session. That has nothing to do with wheth CT you are Secretary of State or not at the time, but should go to you as the one person in all the world who han done the most to make this great plan for peace an effective fact"
 Connally told reporters he believ- ed it conceivable that President Roosevelt might designate Hull as chairman of the American delega- tion to a United Nations Confer ence.
 Stettinius will also inherit from Hull a still unsolved and delicate diplomatic relationship in Latin America, principally with Argentina. and the task of winning senatorial support for many phases of post war economic collaboration with the Allies.
 Amicable Relations
 Like Hull, Stettinius enjoys amic- able relations with Congress. He won the approval of Congression- al majority for the manner in which he administered the lend-lease pro- gram, his first administration task in international relations, from 194l until he became Undersecretary Of State Sept. 25. 194S
 There is a possibility that he will lean heavily upon career diplomats in the tSate Department for guid- ance on South American questions.
 Almost immediately after his nomination, Stettinius turned to the task of finding successor for him. self as Undersecretary of State. It was believed that he would call upon veteran career diplomat for the departments second highest post in view of his own relatively recent entrance into the diplomatic war.
 Heading such list would be Nor man Armour, 57, head of the de- partment's office of American Re- public affairs, whose S2 years in the foregin service have taken him to most major capitals of the world.
 Speculation
 Speculation also centers on others in prominent diplomatic posts. These included William E. Phillips, 66, now the presidents personal en- voy to India and twice holder of the undersecretary's post; Joseph C.. Grew, undersecretary from 1924 to 1927. longtime Ambassador to Tok- yo and now head of the dicision of far eastern affairs; Robert F. Mur- phy, 50, Gen. EisenhoWer's political adviser on Germany, Jefferson Caf- fiery, newly named Ambassador to France; John G. Winant, ambassa- dor to London and w. Ayerell Har- riman ambassador to Russia.
 There is also a possibility that an Undersecretary will be chosen from the four men now serving as assistant secretaries of state Adolf \. Berle, IT.. Dean Acheson, Breck~ inridge Long and G. Rowland Shaw.
