RAPED IN PULLMAN

Two white soldiers are being held
at Camp Mackall, N. c., near here
on charges Of criminally attacking
Mrs. June Knight of Raleigh, who
was passenger in Pullman COM

train.
Mrs. Knight, it was learned, was
allegedly attacked by the two SOL
diers, identified as T/5 Dermo R.
Hentry of Camp Butner, N. c., and
S/Sgt. Edward MIME of Ft. Benn-
ing, Ca, as she was enroute home
from Fort Mcclellan, Ala, where
she had been visiting her husband.
Mrs. Knight and the soldiers, it
was said, were the only passengers
on the Pullman car at the time of
the attack, which occurred between
Atlanta and Hamlet.
The victim told military au-
thorities that the men broke into
her compartment and committed
the crime while the other held a
pistol on her. Her scream, she said
attracted the attention of the flag
man on the train, but being un-
armed, he was unable to do any
thing in her defense.
In spite of her frantic insistence
to the train officials, Mrs. Knight
reported that the train officials
displayed little interest in her re.
port of the attack until the flag.

"Mr. Palmer" convinced them that
she was telling the truth.
Military police were summoned
and the men placed under arrest

two police cruisers were on duty
at the plant to prevent any major
uprising.

Jones refused to spe- culate why these steaks and roasts remain on the hoof.

 Jones told the United Press that "nobody's going hungry in this country" but he said there would be no immediate relief even with the fall of Germany. Unofficial estimates that very few men will be discharged from the armed services for other than medical reasons prior to defeat of Japan suggest that the war and navy de- partmenas will continue to draw heavily on home supplies.

 Wait to Be Taken
 Eyewitness reports from Patton's front said hundreds of Germans were sitting in forest villages fal behind the front lines waiting fol the Americans to round them up.
 A few fanatical German villagers and local police units attempted tc stave off the Third Army advance but they were ridden down by Pat tons tank-riding Doughboys. The German Army itself appeared tc have abandoned the battlefield on the vital southwestern road to Ber- lin.
 The Third Army already had seven or more bridgeheads across the Rhine in the area immediately south of Coblenz and farther south between Mainz and Worms. Ger man spokesmen said Pattons men were Storming the Rhine at dozen other points Southward to the Karls- rune corner.
 The Allied armies in the north beyond Wesel were barely $40 miles from the Berlin-bound Russian Army on the Oder river east of the enemy capital, and Patton's troops beyond the Rhine were barely 29O miles from the Soviets.

 Other Third Army columns were sweeping in on Frankfurt, Ger many's Ninth city, from the south and west at a speed that threatened to engulf the big industrial center by nightfall.
 Thousands of dejected prisoners were flowing back through the Third Army front with word that the Wehrmacht was abandoning Frankfurt in a desperate race to es- cape Patton's armored riders.
 Radio Frankfurt went off the air suddenly early today after flashing word that American tanks were ap- preaching the city.
 Darmstads Captured
 The big industrial city of Darm- stadt, 15 miles south of Frankfurt fell to Pattons famous Rolling Fourth Armored Division almost without struggle. The Tanks stabbed northward for Frankfurt and sent a powerful armored wedge 2l 1-2 miles northeast into Aschaf- fenburg, where they captured one of the Main river bridges intact.
 Ofhcially, Patton's men were clos est to Berlin at Aschaffenburg, but they were believed to have plunged on across the Main at top speed tc point far closer to the enemy capital.
