Russian Forces
Increase Threat
To BuItic Port


LONDON, Mar. 6. - Russian
troops closing on Stettin have
reached the Oder River near
Greifenhagen, II miles south of
Stettin, a Moscow dispatch said
today. The Germans declared
the Soviets had thrust to within
13 miles of Stettin Bay and 35
of the U-boat base of Swine
muende.
Marshal Gregory K. Zhukov,
commander of the 1st White Rus
sian Army, already had turned
heavy guns, some of them only re-
Gently captured from the enemy,
against the eastern suburbs of Stet-
tin. At the same time his mobile
vanguard steadily rolled up the
German defenses guarding the Oder
Estuary.
His troops were said to be driving
steadily forward from both Star
gard and Naugard, seized yesterday.
Stargard lies Is miles east of Stet-
tin and Naugard % miles north of
Stargard.
RokossOvsky's Forces Advance.
AS Zhukov thus got set for a
knockout blow against Stettin, cap
ture of which would be a strategic
prize, Marshal K. K. Rokossovsky's
End White Russian Army to the
northeast slashed deeper into the
coastal strip of Pomerania between
Danzig and Koeslin.
The battle for Stettin seemed vir-
tually under way, although Zhukov's S
hardest blows at the moment appar-
emily were directed toward Gollnow
and Cammin, on the last main road
and railway to the sea coast east of
the Oder.
The sprawling factories of Stettin,
which serves as Berlin's port, are
spread out on both sides of the Oder
at the southwest corner of Damn
scher Lake. Gollnow is located
northeast Of this body of water.
Cammin is only miles from the
Baltic on the eastern arm of the
Oder Estuary.
East Of Cammin the big seaboard
towns of Treptow and Kolberg faced
the prospect of immediate isolation
as the Russians struck swiftly ahead.
Berlin said Kolberg already was
being stormed.)
Unimpressive Counterattacks.
Field dispatches said German
counterattacks organized in the
Stettin area with Volkssturrn infan-
try and smattering of veteran ar
mored units were on an unimpressive
scale.
zhukov's troops struck out for
Altdamm, east bank Oder River
suburb of Stettin, after capturing
Stargard in a street battle which
was officially declared to have cost
the Germans 1000 killed.
The Zhukov and Rokossovsky
armies seized a total of .230 towns
and villages yesterday. Gains aver
aged 10 miles. Steadily pressing
large number of the enemy back
against the Baltic coast, Rokossov-
sky was said to be wiping out
isolated groups one by one.
Rokossovsky captured eight towns
in Poland east of Pomerania on
the approaches to Danzig. Five
communities fell in East Prussia in
the continuing battle for Koenigs-
berg.

or-jail bill, as the Senate re-
sumed debate after a three day
breathing spell.
Both substitutes remove from the
individual worker the compulsion
which the House voted to apply to
men between Is, and As to remain
at or go to essential jobs, but both
would seek to induce men and
women to seek war jobs by forcing
them out of nonessential plants.
This is substantially the system al
ready followed by the War Man.
power Commission
Carries Two Limitations.
The first test vote is expected to
come on the substitute of Senators
Revercomb of West Virginia and
Robertson of Wyoming, Republicans,
which would apply the work-or-
Jail principle only to men not per-
forming any substantial" work.
The War Manpower Commission
job-ceiling system would be retained
as to all employed men and women,
but with two changes in the plan
sponsored by the Military Affairs
Committee.
One would prevent VINO from
ordering cut of more than SO per
cent in the working force of a con-
Germ. The other would allow a
worker forced out by labor ceiling
to return to his old job if not ac-
cepted by war plant within 80 days.
Meanwhile, Senator Byrd, Demo-
crat, of Virginia came out for the
House compulsory bill, declaring he
would prefer no legislation to the
milk and water" measure recon-
mended by the Senate committee.
Work or Fight Is Misnomer.
The Virginian said:
"A weeks discussion of the Sen
ate substitute for the work or fight
bill has clearly demonstrated that
this legislation is practically without
power of enforcement. The name OF
work or fight as applied to this
Legislation, is certainly a misnomer
as the Senate bill provides for nc
control whatever over those who dc
not work. There is nothing in the
bill that will compel the loafers and
laggards who are not contributing
their full measure to the war effort
to go to work. It is little short OF
an absurdity to place a penalty on
the employer when no penalty is
provided for the employe.
Il firmly believe that either the
Senate should pass a real work-or-
fight bill or none at all. The milk
and-water measure as presented by
the Military Affairs Committee of
the Senate will do more to confuse
the situation than any good it can
possibly accomplish. Both the Ger
man and Japanese wars are today in
their most critical stages. Our mill
tary authorities tell us that work.
or-fight measure is essential to win
the war quickly to save the lives
of our boys-and /, for one, will not
hesitate to vote for such a law.
Il will vote against the Military
Affairs Committee substitute be-
cause I think it would be a mere
gesture and beneath the dignity of
the Senate to adopt such a measure
when every impulse Of patriotism
should impel the Senate to act firm
~ and courageously."

ROME, Mar. 6.-The escape of
Gen. Mario Roatta during his
trial onswar crimes charges pro-
duced an Italian political crisis
today which may topple the gov

nomi and open the premiership
to Count Carlo Sforza.
Count Sforza, vetoed by the Brit
ish for place as foreign minister
in the Bonomi cabinet few weeks
ago, is expected to make strong
bid for the premiership if Bonomi
falls.
Another British veto of Count
Sforza is made less likely by the
fact that the new Allied program
in Italy involves Allied control over
only the Ministries of War, All

In the event the Bonomi govern

1t was considered significant here
that Count Sforza has announced
he would not accept the ambassa-

can guard against a certain card
opposite the declarer, and the OPP
