TIONARY FORCE, Tuesday,
Oct. 10.-(P)-Aachen shook
today under assault by Amer
lean forces who cut all main
roads, narrowed the escape
route to a shell-raked mile
and a half, and fought into
the southern outskirts of that
German frontier industrial
city of 10000 population,
now reduced to ruins and a
slim garrisou of 1900.
The last main road out Of the
city was severed yesterday when
U. S. First army troops stormed
the hamlet of Haaren, while
doughoys driving down from the
north fought to Wurselen, only a
mile and a half to the north and
commanding all small roads still
left to the Germans.
Supreme Headquarters declared
that every counterattack which the
Germans had thrown in to relieve
the city had been repulsed. Berlin
radio said the latest counterattacks
were launched nine miles north Of
Aachen during the afternoon.

.BELLAMY RULES.
AGAINST REFUND

County Attorney Marsden Bel
lamy ruled out motion made by
George W. Trask, at the regular
meeting of the Board of county
Commissioners yesterday, to re-
fund part of the back taxes paid
by the heirs of the late Mrs. Han
nah Stone on property which in a
recent survey was discovered to
be 6 IL feet short of the footage
covered in the deed. ~
The property in question is locat-
ed on Third street. Commissioner
Trask moved that a partial re-
fund be made on the taxes paid
during the past five years, at the
request of R. C. Stone, executor
Of the estate.
When question arose on the
legality of the action, Commission
err H. R. Gardner moved that the
matter be turned over to Attorney
Bellamy, who in turn moved that
the first motion be disallowed be-
cause of a recent Supreme court
ruling that it is the responsibility
of the owner upon listing his taxes.
In this case the error was with the
deed, not the county.

LONDON. Nov. ls-Marstal Tito's
National COMMITTEES Of Liberation
and the extled Jugoslav government
IN London were reported tonight to-
lave agreed to establish : regency
n Yugoslavia soon, with Z plebis-
ute to be held after the war to
determine whether King Peter re-
,urns to his throne.
Marshal Tito himself was reported
20 have been chosen to be Premier
If new Yugoslav government Of
.8 members representing both the
rational liberation movement and
the exiled regime. DR.. Ivan Subasic,
Premier of the London government,
is expected to be one Of the three
regents.
To Name Province Ministers.
According to this report, a minis
ter of state will be named for each
OF the six Yugoslav provinces, some
what corresponding to the prewarl
governors. Apparently Marshal Tito
and DR.. Supasic In their recent
negotiations-which resulted In COM
plete agreement on the future ad-
ministrative machinery for Yugo-
slavia-considered it wise to provide
for representatives of Serbia. Croa-
tia, Herzegovina, Montenegro,
Slovenia and Bosnia with high
status.
Well-informed quarters say the
new Yugoslav setup might be an
nounced in two weeks.
Marshal Tito already is in Moscow,
and DR.. Subasic is expected to
arrive momentarily. 1t seemed likely
the announcement would come from
Moscow after Marshal Tito and
Dr. Subasic have talked with
Premier Stain.
Crises Believed at End.
The two years of crises which have
dogged the exiled Yugoslav govern
ment appeared TO have reached an
end. Since DR.. Subasic became
Premier he has had many talks
with Marshal Tito.
Both Britain and Russia played
prominent roles in bringing about
their agreement. Britain has made
no bones about backing King Peter.
And, likewise, Russia has backed
Tito, but both saw the urgent need
for bringing the two factions to-
gether so that a unified democratic
government could be established.
1t is noteworthy that Moscow has
never attacked King Peter.
Most quarters believe Britain
would be pleased If King Peter Is
returned to his throne. But this
will be left up to the people of
Yugoslavia, who will be given an
opportunity in a free election to
decide whether to retain the mon
archy.
