"Aw, shut up"
 We came finally through the fog of dust upon a crazy pile ot sinok- ing rafters, rubble and mortar. It had been a good sized building or several stories. Now 1t was a ourn- ing tomb.
 Servicemen formed a cordon across the road against the gather ing spectators, nurses in white marched in, ambulances arrived, rescuers scurried over the rubble pile. People began to emerge from the blast gutted adjoining buildings.
 An old woman hobbled out of one building, holding an apronful of the little things she valued most. Res- cuers led a younger woman from another building, almost carrying her. She cried over and over.
 "Where's Henry? I left him right here on the corner a minute ago. I won't move until find Henry"
 Blood trickled from her forehead as nurses took her in charge.
 For an hour we stood and watched the searchlights scan the rubble, watched the flashlights glinting through gutted rooms of windowless buildings, watched nurses and civil defense workers and firemen in the second battle of Britain.
 Then as they began carrying out bodies with blankets draped over stretchers, the bells of the old church up the street tolled the hour. It was requiem.

Politics
 M Passing

Nomination of Atty. Leo w. Gaff- ney of New Britain at the Demo- cratic State convention in Hartford next weekend seems pretty certain d week in advance of the proceed tngs. If anything, his candidacy fiourished during the brief interim when many leaders and influential party members were out of the state attending the Roosevelt-Truman festivities in Chicago. He will go into the convention with more avowed delegates than any other candidate. It will only take a little encouragement during the initial roll-call on the gubernatorial nomi- nation to create a Gaffney land slide. However, there is this to reckon with and no doubt his cam paign managers have prepared for it. Will the senatorial nomination precede those for the various places on the state ticket? If it does it could easily have profound effect on the destinies of Mir. Gaffney. Up to now the forces of Senator Frank Maloney and J. Francis Smith have not decided on a senatorial nominee or whether they'll support any of the candidates already in the field. It doesn't seem as if they would not attempt to hold their present dele- gate strength in line for some sena. torial candidate.

 German Air Force
 Gorrell reported in another front dispatch that the German air force appeared in strength last night for probably the first time since D-Day and heavily bombed the advancing Americans, but Allied anti-aircraft guns put up a heavy barrage.
 British Mosquitos struck back at the Germans with attacks on l8 trains over a wide area extending from Granville to Paris, the lines over which the enemy would move up endorsements to the threatened front.
 The rest of the Normandy front continued quiet, with only artillery and patrol action reported from St. Lo west to Caen.

German tanks destroyed south of CoutanceS, nine probably destroyed and 25 damaged: 884 enemy motor transport vehicles destroyed, I2 probably destroyed and 1l6 dam aged.
 A German communique acknowl- edged that the large-scale American attack had assumed still greater extension" below COutances.
 The Americans entered Coutances late yesterday and found it desert- ed then plunged on tc the west coast south of the Sienne Estuary to complete the encirclement of an estimated several thousand German troops isolated in a pocke. to the north.
 Escape Trap
 Front dispatches said the bulk of the German 64th army corps of seven badly?battered divisions as- signed to the LessEy-Periers sector before the breakthrough escaped through the Coutances bottleneck before American tanks cut across to the sea.
 The thousands caught in the trap, however, were expected to boost the bag for the first five days of the offensive to well over 5000. Five thousand prisoners had been taken through yesterday, supreme head quarters said.
 The Americans were estimated to have liberated some 400 square miles Of France between St. To and the west coast since they began their offensive in the wake of a 3OOO- plane bombardment of enemy lines Tuesday. At least two of the three enemy panzer, one paratroop and i've infantry divisions arTayed along the western half of the front were believed to have been destroyed as fighting units. They were the Lehr Panzer and the Fifth Paratroop di- visions. Tn addition, virtually all tanks of the i7th s Panzer GFena- dier Division were believed to have been knocked out.

 With American planes already using Ushi Point airport on the northern tip of the island, Marines advanced nearly four miles to the south to capture the airfieid Jap- anese had constructed above Cur guap Point.
 Jsps May stand
 United Press War Correspondent Richard W. Johnston reported in a front line dispatch from Tinian that there were growing signs the Jap- anese would attempt a death stand in the lower half of the island.
 The northern half Of the island, containing the highly prized Ushi airport, was secured at an incred- ibly low cost, with less than 100 marines killed. Johnston reported.
 Inspection of the Ushi airdrome. |" he added, gives evidence that this is the major Japanese airport Of the Mandated Islands-pot only for offensive purposes but as a dis- tFibuting point for the MaFsallg and Car0lipes, Wreckage Of more than 50 planes is strewn about fine cons crete aprons and inside well-built bunkers and reyetmeDts. including maRy types I had not seen heretov fore tn the Pacific"
