I half day tomorrow. The defense will rest It's case before the week Is over, counsel have disclosed.
 Considerable speculation arose to- day on possible testimony of Mrs. Zukauskas. Statements she made to the coroner can not be used as states evidence. Any variance in her testimony on the stand with that in her official statement may lead. however, to admission of the disclosures she is said to have made to investigators.
 Zukauskas Is known to have been given psychiatric examinations at the New Haven county jail, but no indication has been given that the results of the tests will be brought into testimony.
 Legal circles here meanwhile spec ulated that the fate of Zukauskas and the possible turn of his defense were most sharply influenced by words he uttered himself from the witness stand last Thursday.
 Asked by his counsel whether or not the answers you gave to the coroner were given by you vol tlntarily" the prisoner answered that they were, and immediate made way for admission of his confession to the staying as evidence.
 Under the principles established in the case of U. s. vS. McNabb, one Of the cases most frequently cited during the current trial, an involun- tary confession, given under par ticular circumstances, can not be admitted.
 Zukauskas, however. removed ne ceSsity for considering in detail the treatment he received from police, when he admitted openly that the confession was made voluntarily.

past BarWalde to reach the Oder at a point g miles from Berlin, and furious fighting for the river cross ing was reported in progress there.
 Towering pillars of smoke from fires stoked in Berlin by American bomberS Saturday still hung over the Nazi capital early today and a flood of reports from Swedish sources told of chaos and terror in the beleaguered city. One uncon- firmed account said Berlin's home guards had been placed under 24- hour alert against a possible Allied paratroop attack.
 Radio Moscow broadcast 8 procla- nation calling o nthe German army to overthrow the NaZi regime and surrender, asserting that Hitler has lost the war" and that the plight of the German divisions On all fronts was no hopeless.
 There was no sign of weakening resistance along the Oder, however and all accounts made 1t clear that the German army regulars and VolkSturm units were fighting fiercely in obedience to their Nazi overlords' call to stand and die on that last line of defense.
 With their main frontal drive on Berlin slowed for the moment. the Soviets were flaming out on both Hanks in an obvious bid to spread the German lines thin and soften them up for decisive break through.

 Against the defense ring in front Of Frankfurt as well as against Kus- trh, and Poznan, the Soviets are continuing their violent attacks without any success worth mention inE," the German high command reported.
 The bracketing of Frankfurt and Kustrin with PoZnan was significant, inasmuch as the Polish fortress city long has been under siege and iso- lated beyond hope of relief by Zhu- kov's sweep to the approaches Of Berlin.
 Striking for quick breakthrough into the Brandenburg plain that would lay Berlin open to attack from all sides, Soviet armored form at!ons were ranging up and down the east bank of the Oder, chopping away the cnemy's communications and slaughtering thousand. of hast -mobilized Nazi reserves.
 The Soviet early morning com- munique reported that about 10000 Germans were killed or captured all along the eastern front yesterday, most of them in series of swaying battles before the twin Oder strong holds of Frankfurt and Kustrin, a miles east and 38 miles east-north- ern of Berlin.
 German SpokesmeA admitted the Soviets had broken into Kustrin three times, but claimed the attack CTS had been hurled back with heavy losses. Moscow dispatches indicated that Nazi resistance was Stiffening at both Kustrin and Frankfurt, 1e miles to the south.
 At the same time, Russian armor- cd units outflanked Kustrin with a io-mile advance into the Oder bend where they captured Barwalde, l4 miles to the northwest, cutting d. rect communications from the Baltit Port of Stettin to Kustrin ant Frankfurt.

Continued from Page D south, there were signs of General German withdrawal from at least the outer works of the west wall. It was still not clear, however, whether the strain created on Ger mnays manpower by the Russia offensive had prompted a Nazi withdrawal behind the Rhine, some 30 miles to the east.
 On the Ninth Divisions right flank, the second infantry stabbed to within a mile of the Siegfried an- chor town of Schleiden with the cap ture of Ettelscheid. while another column moved to within three miles southwest of Schleiden at Helen thai Doughboys of the First DiVi- sion moved into high ground about five miles southwest of Schleiden by taking Ramscheid and Hollerath against moderate opposition.
 Two miles farther south, the 82nd arborne division was heavily en- gagged around Udenbreth beating of several stiff counterattackS and pushing out slightly east of the town.
 Meanwhile, Patton's Third Army veterans recaptured the last Belgian soil held by the Nazis and pushed eastward into Germany'S Schnee Eifel tSnow Ridge) through spora- die opposition.

 On the Franco American front in Alsace, where the neWly-landed American Fist Corps was disclosed to have come into action, Allied troops conyerged from the north and souts to cut the enemy pocket in two with a juncture at Rouffach, 10 miles south of Colmar and IA miles north of Mulhouse.
 Several thousand Germans were believed trapped west of Roufiach, while the rest Of the enemy force was in full retreat across the Rhine through narrow bottlcnecK around Neuf Brisach, nine miles east Of Colmar. The Rhine Bridge at Neu Brisach was hit and damaged heav- fly by Allied dive bombers yesterday although there was no immediate medication that it had been des- troyed. More than 2,500 Nazi pri- soners were taken from the ocket over the weekend.

 At the northern end of the Red Army front, zhukov's right wing advanced on Stettin along broad assault arc. Latest official Soviet dispatches said the Russians were in Seldin. l8 miles northeast of Barwalde and 38 miles southeast of Stettin, by nightfall Saturday. Bcr- lin admitted, however, that the Rus sians later reached Pyrhz, only 23 miles from the big Baltic port.
 Meanwhile, the battle for East Prussia was racing swiftly into It's final hours as hundreds of Rus sian siege guns began leveling the capital city of Konigsberg block by block. Konigsberg's suburbs al ready were in flaming ruins from the terrific bombardment and Mos COW dispatches said the center of the city would be reduced to ashes within a matter of days unless the surrounded Nazl garrison surren- dered.
 Nine-tenths of the Prl!ssian prov ince was in Russian hands and Soviet accounts said the surviving Germans had been split up into relatively small groups and were being wiped out piecemeal. One SO- viet column Is miles north of Ko- nigsberg captured the Baltic coastal town of Cranz. at the southwestern end of a narrow sandspit linking the capital with Memel, and seized 130 ships lying in the Kurische- schaff lagoon.
 Pocket Reduced
 South of Konizsberg. the Russians were steadily reducing a l,2OO- square mile pocket of enemy resist- ance. Yesterday they captured the fortress cities of Landsbcrg and Bartenstein, % and 3l miles below the capital, and drove to within seven miles southwest of Preussch Eylau.
 At the southern end of the long eastern front. Marshal Feodor I. Tolbukhin's Third Ukrainian army continued the methodical liquida- ton of German troops encircled in narrow section of Budapest, and Moscow dispatches hinted at an impending drive west Of the capital toward Vienna and the Moravian gate Into southern Germany.

 That cleared up one of several points which had delayed action, but other disputes were expected to make the bills path to enactment rocky.

 The ability of the city to meet such obligations as these, if all of the bonds were ultimately sold, is re- flected in the debt service table for the city, which actually reached it's peak in 1942 and which shows q steady decline until 1852. During the period 1953-57 there is q slight in- crease, but at no time does the ma turity table approach the l942 level. It more nearly approximates the 1850 debt service level at the height of payment Of the 1941 water bonds.
