Jei Planes Now in Alaska for Afelie
 Condition Testing

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29. = The Army's pet-propulsion planes are undergoing Arctic tests in Alaska These tests apparently are designed to fit the planes for use under any climatic condition, as the American jet plane had it's first secret tests under the. hot, sandy conditions of the desert, at Muroc, California.
 Disclosure by an official Army publication in the magazine Air Force of trials of jet planes under extreme cold in Alaska is interesting iii view of a recent dispatch from Moscow, reporting that Red Air Force engineer had spent six months in the United States studying jet planes. Air Force suggests that the Alaskan tests probably concern fuel viscosity and other fuel problems, Since kerosene does not act like gasoline at lower temperatures"

RUSSIANS
 CLOSE IN
 ON BERLIN.
One City EncirtIed Only B Miles from Nazi Capi-
 taI, Germans Report

i LONDON, Jan. 29--The Rus .sians have surrounded the Prussian rail center of Schneidumuhl, four miles inside the German border. the German spokesman announced over the Berlin radio and Swedish eyewitnesses reports flashes of Sta lin's guns already could be seen from Berlin in the night skies over the eastern battlefront. i German officials are moving offices from the threatened Nazi Capital City and 20 trains have evacuated part of the populace, said Swedish National report from Berlin.
 Foreign diplomats are making preparations to leave Berlin and all foreign correspondents have been ordered to depart, according to Swedish correspondent who has reached Sweden.
 The encirclement of Schneid- umuhl, a city of 4l,0o0 population, has cut the main Berlin Danzig railway at point 35 miles north- east of Berlin, but directly east of the Capital City, German reports the Russitns about 95 miles from Berlin.
 Bec-Line Drive i Latest Russian announcement said the Russians are in a bee-line drive to Berlin, and were l09 miles east of Berlin, but Moscow dis patches said it is believed Zhukov's tanks have spurted further ahead and crossed the fronties of Bran- Idenburg Province at several diff ferent points.
 While zhukov's frone, by off cial Moscow report, has spread in an 80 mile arc, within 100 miles of Stettin on the Baltic and 70 miles from Frankfurt on the Oder River, the Russian forces in East Prussia have virtually surrounded Konigsberg, capital of Prussia.
 Konigsberg Pounded
 The konlgSberg radio came on the air six hours late today but announced steady stream of gum fire was being poured into the city.
 Breslau. Silesian bastion on the Oder, and Poznan and Torun in Poland, where encircled Nazi suicide garrisons are believed on their last legs, are fighting des- |perately The Dabrowa coal fields and most of the industrial centers in Silesia are now overrun by the Russians.
 A late German broadcast declares Zhukoy's frontal drive on Berlin has been temporarily stopped but the broadcast told of fighting along the Obra frontier area, 95 miles from Berlin.

The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON ct. Col Robert S. Allen now on active service with the Army.)

WASHINGTON - For about one year after Pearl Harbor, the mem bers of Congress who rode Jesse Jones hardest for his failure to pro- vide synthetic rubber plants were the Republicans. In various com mittee meetings they heckled him unmercifully for overriding the recommendation of The National Defense Council and refusing to do anything about rubber.
 But now the situation is reversed. Apparently certain COP Senators have short memories. It is these same Republicans who are now sup porting Jesse Jones in their fight against Henry Wallace.
 For instance, COP Senator Owen Brewster of Maine is leaning toward Jesse Jones in the current fight. But as member of the committee, Brewster's brilliant cross-eXamina- tion made Jones look like monkey. Brewster brought out that Ed Stet- tinius, then in charge of raw ma terials for the National Defense Council had repeatedly urged, im- plored and demanded that Jones

NAzlS GAIL FOR FINAL
 DITCH FIGHT
Dr. Robert Ley Stdies Fate of Berlin Is Now
 in Balance

LONDON, Jan. 29,--Nazi leaders began preparing the German people for the assault on Berlin by sum- moning them to last-ditch resist ance in the hinterlands. We will fight before Berlin, around Berlin and behind Berlin" German broadcast declared.
 The slogan was given to the Ger mans by old-line Nazi party leader, Dr. Robert Ley and broadcast over Transocean with this comment. The fate of Berlin is in balance
 The summons broadcast was made on the eve of Hitlers twelfth an- niversary as chancellor.
 The Paris radio said many Nazi party leaders are moving to Berlin and Munich to set up resistance headquarters" there. Earlier, the Paris radio, quoting Stockholm re- ports said serious riots had broken out in Eastern and Southern dis tricts of Berlin. Police and SS troops were called out to quell the rising waves of unrest in the Reich capital"
 The Brussels radio said refugees arriving at Halle and Frankfurt on the Oder staged demonstrations when they found no food. In Leip- zig SS men fired on a crowd demon strating against sending home guard units to the front. Brussels reports said there is no confirmation of these reports.

NAzI TROOPS PUSHED BACK
 TO BORDER
Third Army Reaches Ger man. Luxembourg
 Frontier

PARIS, Jan. 29-Veteran div isions of the First Army pushed a snow-plow attack northeast of St. With to within a mile. of Germany, the beginning of the formidable Siegfried Line defenses.
 American and French troops ad- vanced more than two miles to a point barely more than half mile from the outskirts of Colmar, 46,000 population, the historic cap- ital of Upper Alsace. Colmar is 38 miles southwest of Strasbourg.
 The Third Army reached the German-LuXembou frontier on an eight-mile stretch along riv- CT. North of the First Army the United States Ninth and the British Second Army came close to the Roer River through the Sieg- fried Line in many places, poten- tially threatening the Ruhr and the Rhineland and their great cities.
 To the south, the Third Army is either near or across the border all the way to Saarbrucken, thus General Dwight Eisenhower's for ces are deployed along or beyond 200 miles of the Siegfried Line, all the way from Holland to the south ern part Of the Saarland.
 The slow reversal of the Arden nes bulge squeezed perhaps 20 American divisions from the strengthened salient, allowing them to rest for the next balle.
 From dusk to dawn today Allied llanes swept over German areas behind the West Wall disrupting continued German movements from the Ardennes. Mosquito bombers took up where 2O0O bombers left off at nightfall.

Hidden deep within the nations news
papers last week, far from the front page
cries for labor conscription, was the best
answer we have seen to the Administra-
TONS demand for work or fight" legisla-
ton.
William l.. Blatt vice-chairman of the
War Production Board, recited figures of
American production to a New York
audience which the conservative Asso-
ciated Press called staggering"
America, Blatt said, is now produc-
ing war material equal to that of "alI
our allies and enemies" combined.
Britain and Russia have conScripted
labor. Germany and Japan have slave
labor. Free men in America are outpro
ducing them ALL
It's obvious that the advocates of regi-
mentation aren't even satisfied with
miracles
