' WHILE Americans have done the Cherbourg job, we must n't forget that the credit won't he ALL ours. The British and Canadians, ' holding Btubbornly and bloodily at Caen, have kept the weight of German armor OFF OUR NECKS while we battled for the city and lis port. IN the east, four or five great 1 red armies ,are storming for ward on a front of 250 to 300 miles in a CONVERGING drive on .Minsk, at the old Polish bor der. Minsk lies on the groat rail road that leads to Warsaw and BERLIN. Vitebsk was entered (45,000 Germans are said to have been trapped there). The line of the Dvlna river has been forced (the valley of the Dvlna, traversed both by the river and by another great railroad, leads down to Riga, on the Baltic). The Russians have advanced as much as 25 miles In three days at some places. They call the Ger man flight a "retreat of panic." HITLER (wherever he is) faces now tlic dilemma he has sought from the start to uvold, He is fighting ut his front and back doors, and ALSO at a side door In Ituly. IN the Pacific, we're cleaning up I on Saipan. The Japs have been driven into the Island's north eastern coiner. The dispatches say that if we haven't already taken Garapan, the Island's cap! tul and port, wc can whenever we choose. The Japs arc believed to be evacuating it. IIMITZ sums up the battle of Saipan. From June 10 to 23, lie says, we downed 717 Jap pianos, sunk 30 Jap ships and damaged 51 more. The Jap ships sunk or damaged Include SIX CARRIERS-probably the EN TIRE carrier force of the Jap fleet that threatened us at Sai pan. In the' big battle of Sunday, June 18, wa shot down 402 Jap planes a new world record in one battle. WE can pretty safely Jump to the conclusion that the Jnp have lost the SEA BATTLE OF THE PACIFIC already. If so, they have lost their Island empire (not yet PHYEICALLY, but with out sufficient air and sea power they must lose it). That leaves the , continent of Asia us their last hope and there they are driving ahead with everything they have. They have less than 200 miles left to go to link up with Canton (and Hong Kong).

A huge program has been set up to sell Series E bonds. vided on a scale eclipsing any previous attempt. Every effort has been made to convince the public of the impor tance of buying Series E bonds and the public buys Series G bonds. Not everyone is buying G bonds, of course. There has been a gratifying sale of Series E bonds, ailthough we still have a long way to go before we reach our goal. But the sale of G bonds is considerably above expectations. In fact, if the money invested by individuals in Series G bonds in Douglas county during the current campaign could be count ed against our E bond quota, Many explanations could dition, but the principal one an early end to the' war. It who holds that view will be disappointed, but overconfidence can bpcome dangerous. .' The trend of bond purchases also indicates the availabil ity of money and the fact that people are not too greatly interested in profits from their investments in war bonds. The Series E bond carries the highest rate of return, pay ing1 2.9 per cent, if held to maturity. The series G bond pays rf.o per cent, .

People who are in a po sition to know say the war will continue for a long time. But the day of victory can be mightily hastened if the American people will take money they are spending fool ishly and use it to speed the war effort, or if they check out money they have in banks, earning nothing, and invest it in the securities offered by our government to serve our war purposes while, at the same time, it earns a substan tial rate of interest and protects us against losses from ruinous inflation. route from Korea to Burma.

The interview was confined largely to questions by Johnston about future trade between the United States and the soviet un ion and direct answers by Stalin. However, Stalin also gave his guest a statement praising Amer ican business, labor and agricul ture lor their contribution to the war. Stalin's statement follows: "American business and Amer ican labor have done a remark able job of production lor the war. American agriculture also has performed unusually well.
