Helps Break Up Colds Local Congss-
tion-Cheeks Coughing
Many mothers all over America
are switching to this idea of get
ting fast relief for these chest cold
miseries. They are simply follow
ing Grandma. For years she count
ed on mutton suet to help carry her
home medication to do its pain-eas-
ing work on nerve ends in the skin.
No wonder so many more now well
come Grandma's idea as improved
by science-Penetro, with it's multi
medicated formula in base con-
tanning mutton suet-that acts both
as counter-irritant and pain-reliev-
er when you spread it on, and as
a soothing aromatic when breathed
in. And SO today Penetro hurries
along newer help in the old reliable
way-help that eases painful mis-
cry, lessons coughing, loosens
phlegm, soothes chest rawness-so
that you can rest more comfortably
and give nature a chance to restore
vitality. That's why millions are
switching to Penetro today-why
druggists are recommending it. Csc,
double supply 35c. For all your fam
ily's chest cold miseries, be sure
you get white, easy-to-use Penetro.

The Germans themselves an
nounced withdrawal from Jaszber-
eny before its occupation was list
ed in the Soviet night comrnuniuus

corded by the Soviet monitor here.
The general nature OF the Ger
man withdrawal was limited at in

German troops, behind curtain
of steel from the fire of hundreds
of our guns, have oisengaged them
selves toward prepared positions
to economic their forces"
The commentator referred to Gy-
omro, only 10 miles southeast Of
Budapest on the Szlonok-Budapest
railway, as "the western pivot Of
our defense SYSTEM" and acknowl-
edged that Soviet shock troops al.
ready were beating against it.
This was supported by the Soviet
announcement of the capture OF
Mende, only two miles from Gy-
omro.
The German announcer said the
garrison at Jaszbereny had been
surrounded Tuesday and had to
force its way back to a nAv line
in series of fierce counteratta cks
adding that ''this resulted in the
necessity to abandon the blazing
ruins of the town under protection
of rainy night
The Russian communique, how
ever, said Jaszbereny fell in COM
bat rather than by evacuation, and
Moscow dispatches said the skies
were clear today, permitting the
Red air force to renew it's strong
attacks on the receding Hungarian
front.

ABOARD u. S. CARRIER FLAG
SHIP, WESTERN PACIFIC, Nov
10. - Delayed tR When Art
Downino scored a direct hit on
Japans biggest battleship, the
Yamato. in the second battle OF
the Philippines sea he confirmed
the belief OF a lot of Navy men
that he's the outstanding dive
bomber of the fleet.
Yet, the 29-year-old lieutenant
commander nearly missed getting
his wings back at Pensacola, Fla.
in 1887. He admits he had bad
disciplinary record as a cadet.
Too full of pranks. His final
grade was 25-barely passing.
But today, with 10 carrier COM
bat missions, perhaps the indi-
vidual high for the fleet, Arthur
Latimer Downing can wear two
Navy crosses, the distinguished
flying cross, the air medal, the
Presidential unit citation and 10
campaign stars on his service
ribbon.
His interest at the moment is
not medals. Bombing Squadron
IA, which he shippers, is going
home and Downing has his sights
on Santa Barbara, Calf, where
his wife and their two youngsters,
Arleen Lee, 4, and Anthony Cole,
6, live.
He also hopes to get to South
Haven, Mich, to see his parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. George F. Downing.
From the flight decks of the
old Wasp, Lexington and Hornet,
lost carriers of hallowsd men,
ory, and the still-fighting Enter
prise, Downing has taken off for
strikes in the Marshalls and Gil
berts, blows along the New Guinea
coast, and the battles of Tulagi,
the Coral sea, Guadalcanal and
Stewrt island
To these add the thrusts at
Formosa and the Philippines bat
ties for a complete background
of Downing's achievements-sunk
or damaged, one enemy battle

leading Nazi military commentator
observed that the famous fortress
city represents only an outer po-
sition, for holding OF which one

engages only smaller amount OF
forces-just enough to force the en-.
envy to strong wear and tear OIL
strength.
Bitter weather and thick mine

Montgomery's British Second army
fought through the first full Day
of its new offensive southeast OF
Eindhoven in Holland. A staff Off
Ger reported 1--WE are pushing on
fast and TO rthe present, at least
there is nothing much in sight to
stop u.s."
The British quickly merged three
of thei1. four original bridgeheads
into one-approximately three miles
wildcat the junction of the Noord
and Wessen canals Is miles south
west of Venlo and expanded
fourth over the Wessen only 8 miles
from the Dutch city of Roermond.
One British column was at t n e
edge of Grathem, five miles due
west of Roermond, and the Bog
land village of Leveroy, seven miles
northwest of Roermond, was seized
after a light skirmish.
The British attack, which OPEN
ed late Tuesday behind a 400 piece
artillery bartage, continued through
the night, with flame-throwers TAX
ing a prominent part. The nature
Of the territory made it essentially
an infantry job, with tanks giving
only stationary support. Snow and
sleet virtually precluded air sup
port
The German city of Duisburg,
t,ward which the attack appeared
tentatively aimed, is great center
of Hitler's war industries. Situated
on the east bank of the Rhine, it
is connected with Berlin by one OF
the arrow-straight super-highways
with which tn Nazis lnterlaced
Germany in the years before the
war.
A British officer said it was pos
sible that the Germans had pulled
hack to the Mas CMeuse) river,
which forms the Dutch German
hor1ar or even had Withdrawn
across the stream.
(The Berlin radio speculated that
Montgomery's attack was pre-
lude to the expected large-scale at
tack if the whole left wing OF the
Allied arnies.)
The enemy'S yielding of the pow
erful Metz forts almost without
fight was regarded as strongly sug-
gestive of a pull-out that might
well carry all the way back to the
Rhine. To some observers 1t lndl-
Gated that the German command

might soon be needed more urgent
