Marshall Islands
 Next Pacific Hot Spot
By JOHN L. SPRINGER AP Features Writer

When American forces com plete their cleanup of the Gill bert islands, they may jump north to the Marshalls, halfway between Hawaii and the northeastern coast of Australia.
 This group already has been battered heavily by big U. S. bOrnbers. It includes 32 pin-point islands and 300 reefs with total estimated area of 160 square miles and a pre-war population of 0,000-largely Christianized by Protestant and Catholic Ne gro mission teachers. Although previously touched by other trav- elers, it was first explored by Cap tains Gilbert and Marshall in l788.
 Developed as a whaling center, the Marshalls were annexed by Germany in 1886 and became the hub of intense trade rivalry be- tween German and Australian business interests. The sandy soil never more than 35 feet above, sea level-is not conducive to ag- riculture, but the islands have many .coconut palms, breadfruit trees, and several varieties of ba- nanas. Animals are scarce, but many kinds of fish abound on the reefs Copra was leading peace time export
 Highly strategic in Pacific war fare, the Marshalls headouarter- ed German supply forces duri'N the early days of World War 1 and were developed to serve as a repair base for warships. Soon the Japanese moved in, however and later got the group under mandate. They are believed to have made extensive improve ments which, since 1895, they kept completely secret.

REDS NEAR RAIL CITY ON BUG RIVER

MOSCOW, Jan t0.-(AP1- Spearheads of Vatutin's first Uk- ranian army plunged within E miles of the Bug river and neared Vinnitsa, the rail city on the Bug serving as main control point for German communications.

 The German command announc- ed the Soviets had attempted landing west of Ochakov in the Black Sea area, between the Dnieper's mouth, and the naval base at Odessa, but were thrown back.
 No Russian confirmation was reported of the landing which might be flanking assault to bottle up the Germans in the Dnieper Bend.
