of 15,000 men end smashed an
other division, killing and wound

sector of the 1,200-mile front.
"During the night of Aug. 12,
nothing of Importance took place
on our front," the red army's
mid-day communique asserted.
Some Russians interpreted the
communique as indicating that
the new German smash toward
Odessa and Leningrad had been
stemmed, reducing the third big
nazi offensive of the war to
minor local actions.
Ukraine Clean up Nears
The Germans, however, report
ed that Hitlers Invasion armies
were crushing the last soviet re
sistance In the western Ukraine.
Berlin commentators predicted
that Marshal Budyenny, in su
preme command of Russian arm
ies In the Ukraine, would have
to surrender the entire Dnieper
river bend to swift-striking Ger
man and Rumanian troops.
Moscow dispatches reported
that red warplanes had destroy

all mllitury transport between
Bucharest and Constanta.

news agency, said that the luft

Wheeler Voices Criticism.
Senator Whoeler (D., Mont.)
(i'fsai!it'i"lritf"c)b'tr' house vote on
tlie draft extension hi)) as a "r-Vwir
i indication that "the people will
not tolerate the carrying on of
an undeclared war."
"Despite all the pressure on the
congress from the president, the
army general staff, a last-minute
appeul by the secretary of state,
and all the British propagand
ists," he said in a statement,
"the house passed the bill by only
one vote.
"Some of the members of con
gress were absent and not voting.
Some failed to record their votes.
This vote clearly indicates that
the administration could not get a
resolution through congress for a
declaration of war."
Both house and senate bills de
clare that, since "the national in
terest is Imperiled," the president
shall have power to extend the
training periods; that in "hard
ship cases" men may be discharg
ed from service when their re
lease is not Incompatible with the
national defense, and that a $10
monthly bonus be paid service
men in addition to their regular
salary after they have served
their "year.
Debate Spirited.
Dozens of recently-inducted
young men were scattered
through the packed galleries dur
ing the day-long house debate. ,
Scores of women called members
off the floor when the amend-,
ment stage was reached and be
sought them to vote this way or
that. 1
Republicans hammered away
verbally for their contentions
the army already was large j
enough to meet emergencies, und
selectees had been promised that
they would be kept in training
only a year.
Democrats made answer by
pointing to newspaper headlines
"The Vichy government at this
moment Is aligning itself with
Hitler," shouted Representative
Luther A. Johnson (D., Tex.)
during one exchunge.
And in obviously partisan spirit,
Democratic Leader McCormack
of Massachusetts chlded the mil
norlly partv for Its 20 months of
unfulfilled predictions that the
United States soon would go to
war.
He said ho had heard of a con
versation between two republi
cans which went like this:
" 'What do you think of Roose
velt?' "
" Why, he s doublecrossed us
by keeping us out of war'."
