set up the party's State organizati ton

Texas holds two State Democratic

purposes of the second are to certify
nominees for State ofnces and to
elect a new State Executive Com
mittee.
The pro- Roosevelt group seeks to
take over direction of the party
from regular forces by selecting a
new Executive Committee at the
September IL meeting and would
have that convention insist on
Texas % Democratic electors sup
porting national nominees for Pres
ident and Vice President.
Texas squabbling Democrats are
in feud which broke in Austin May
% and resulted in a pro-Roosevelt
convention opposed to the regular
State convention. The fight con-
tinued at the Democratic National
Convention in Chicago.
There a pro-Roosevelt delegation
won equal recognition with a dele
CATION of regulars. The regulars had
told their electors, held by the State
Supreme Court to have been legally
selected, that they were not bound
to support the national nominees II
the Chicago convention failed to
meet certain conditions.
The convention did not meet the
conditions.

Turks Mobi|izing
Army and Shipping,
German Radio Hints
~ the Associated Press.

- the ASSOSihteu kVons
The German radio, adding to
reports that a break in Turkish
German relations was imminent,
said today that a complete sus-
pension of Turkish shipping had
taken place along with "numer-
Gus draftings" of men into the
Turkish Army and that Turkish
summer maneuvers were close
military secrets.
The reports coincided with dis
patches from Turkey saying that
the Bulgarian Government had de-
manded withdrawal Of two German
divisions from the country, and at
the same time was rumored to have
entered into negotiations with the
Allies.
Transocean, German news agency,
said Turkish ships OF the Black Sea
routes were assembled at the mouth
of the Bosporous near Istanbul,
while ships which had piled the
Aegean and Mediterranean were
gathered in the Sea of Marmora.
Diplomatic circles assume that
the Turkish merchant navy will
participate in big annual military
summer exercises" the agency said.
Mobilization of recruits also was
In connection with summer maneu-
vers, the broadcast said.
While the German foreign Office
spokesman was said to have MAIN
tained silence concerning German
Turkish relations, the Bulgarian
Minister to Turkey was reported to
have conferred at length with Pre-
mier Sukru Saracoglu OF Turkey.
The Turkish press was emphasiz-
ing Bulgarias friendly feelings to-
ward Turkey. Transocean said.
Bulgarian Plea Refused at First.
The Germans at first refused to
grant the Bulgarian request, the
Turkish report said, on the ground
their other satellites might make the
same demand and that prestige was
involved, but developments suggest
that this stand was reconsidered.
The Bulgars, meanwhile, are
granting Soviet demands for estab-
lishment of Russian consulates in
most of the country's chief ports
and towns.
They have pointed out to the
Germans. the Turkish report further
related, that the Nazi troops in Bull
garia, estimated now at less than two
divisions. are of no military help
and draw Allied bombing.
Among indications that the Nazis
may be preparing to get out of
Bulgaria was a report from Ruschuk
that Germans, just withdrawn from
Varna and Burgas, now are concen-
trated in Ruschuk on the Danube
just across from the Romanian port
of Giurgiu. Another report said
Germans in Southern Bulgaria now
are massed close to the Greek
frontier.

Robot Bombs Rained
On London Area in
New Mass Attack
By the Assoeiated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, July 20.-The Nazs
adopted a new mass attack" tech
nique in flying bomb assaults ON
London and Southern England dur
ing the night, sending the robots
over in patches, with brief lulls be-
tween each onslaught.
The attacks took fresh toll Of
casualties, including patients in a
hospital, which was badly damaged.
E, Among the victims were nurses.
some of whom, despite their injuries,
helped volunteer rescue squads carry
patients from the hospital under
showers of sparks and red-hot en-
bers.
The back part of the hospital was
wrecked, the main force of the bomb
hitting an adjoining building, which
caught fire. The basement of a
nearby warehouse was turned into
an emergency hospital.
Workers spent most Of the night
digging for bodies at the spot where
a flying bomb blew up crowded
restaurant at noon yesterday, kill
ing and trapping number of per-
sons
Meanwhile, it was estimated that
zoe, 900 persons had left London for
safer havens in the country-far
more than the number evacuated in
1941.
Despite the toll taken by the fly
ing bombs, a poll conducted by tho
Daily Express showed only a bare
majority of those under attack in
Southern England favored reprisals.
The poll found 54 per cent in favor,
AZ per cent against and per cent

attacked 1000 other German
vehicles.
A front dispatch said that miles
southeast of Coutances enemy re-
sistance was reported at Montpichon
American armor had yet to meet
an organized enemy line and the
Germans were trying to protect
their withdrawal with small groups
of infantry and tanks left behind
as rear guards.
Thus far 5000 German prisoners
we're reported taken. OF them, it
was estimated that 1,500 were
rounded up yesterday.
Since Tuesday the Americans
have overrun nearly 900 square
miles of territory, equal to nearly
a quarter of the total taken by all
Allied forces in the previous seven
weeks of the invasion.
Marshal Rommel was reported
moving reinforcements westward
from the still quiet Caen front. 1t
appeared that the whole great
American push would force him
within the next few days to pull
back his forces. roughly, to a line
running diagonally across North
western France from Caen to Av-
ranches, in the corner at the base of
the Normandy and Brittany PENN
sulas.
This would give him a great ex-
panse of wooded heights favorable
for defense and shorten his front
from the present 100 miles to 10
miles.
However. this whole defense plan
is based on holding Avranches, and
the American spearhead was only 18
miles from that city.
fThe Germans reported that the
Americans were using IL motor
lied divisions, with $500 tanks.)
The Germans on the American
front have at least 10 identified divi-
sions-five infantry, three armored
and two parachute.
Air support was limited by weather
again yesterday, but the fighter
planes nevertheless raced along, es-
corting tank spearheads, knocking
out German tanks, moving trees for
snipers and battering German de-
fense positions on both the Ameri-
can and British fronts. Last night
Raj Mosquitoes roaming behind the
battle front attacked l8 trains.
The Germans put force Of about
zoo sorties over the invasion area
yesterday and slightly larger
bomber force than usual last night,
from which five were shot down.
On the Caen front the Germans
were feverishly digging in.
