LONDON, Jan. 24-SoWet troops have broken into the streets of two key Silesian cities, Oppeln and Glewitz, Berlin officially announced by radio, and also stated that as- sault troops of Konev's First Ukranian Army are massed along the Oder River for distance of nearly 50 miles, for what Moscow says means an early crossing of the water barrier.
 One report said the Russians have already crossed the Oder River at an undisclosed point.
 The Germans have permitted Stockholm correspondents in Berlin to report that every ablebodied German male has been ordered to remain at his post and fight the Red Army advance. Streams of refugees are said to be moving westward through Berlin.
 The German radio reports street battles are taking place in Oppeln, with a population of 4o,c00. Op- peln is the southern Silesian capi- tol city and is on the east bank of the Oder River and about 51 miles south, of Breslau.
 Street fighting is taking place at Glewitz, the German radio also states. Glewitz has population of 10000, is an industrial center, and is about 50 miles southeast of Breslau.
 The German communique, broad cast this afternoon, said the Ger man command has been informed there is bitter fighting near Poz- nan, 137 miles from Berlin, and it is here, Moscow says, the Ger mans have apparently staked the defense of Berlin. Poznan is 45 miles from the border
 A big battle is said to be in prospect in the south, below cap- tured Krakow, at Jablumka Pass, the natural gateway to the Reich in the northwestern corner of the Morayian frontier.
 In the north, the Russians are making a drive in East Prussia to close the last German escape railway to the homeland.
 Moscow says the troops defend ing the Oder River line will be swept aside like nine-pins.

Germans Are Rushing from Ardennes SaIieni;Highways
 Choek Full; Tailoring Signs
 Moi Noticed on Other Fr0ni

PARIS, Jan. 24.--Masses of Ger man troops have been spotted deep in Germany, apparently rushing for the faltering Eastern Front from the ashes of the Ardennes salient in Belgium, virtually erased by the American capture of St. With.
 British pilots attacked one of 65 packed troop trains on three lines northeast from Dusseldorf to Hann- over. Significantly, it is reported, trains are moving southwest to the Ardennes area, empty. The high ways from Ardennes are choke full of eastbound traffic, which is also under violent continuing American aerial assault, which, two days ago, accounted for 1000 vehicles.
 Enemy Not Faltering
 Despite the huge scale German movement, which must be consid- erably weakening the Reich's vest ern defenses, there is no immediate sign the enemy is faltering," said Associated Press correspondent Rog- CT Greene, who has been close to Field Marshal Bernard Law Mont gomery's headquarters. He added, however, "momentus events are in the offing.
 American Firts and Third armies pushed on in pursuit of the with drawing Germans from the Arden mes toward the original line from which von Rundstedt started his drive, almost six weeks ago. II Towns Captured

 French First Army poilus attacked the Colmar pocket from the north and south, below Strasbourg. A front line dispatch said the French ad- vanced several kilometers north of Colmar and crossed the III River, a Rhine tributary, at several points. A pocket of 300 Germans is being mopped up north of Strasbourg
 German Shells Dropping
 German 280 millimeter shells are dropping in Haguenau and Bru- math, six miles to the southwest. The threat to northern Alsace re- mained serious and there were con- siderable German movements noted in the Bitche salient.
 To the west, opposite the Maas, the British Second Army fought into Heinsperg, the last important Ger man road center west of the Roer River. In attacks that carried more than seven miles into northwest Germany, the British struck within four miles of Roermund 32 miles from Dusseldorf.
