-P)-Soviet Armies in the Uk
raine have reduced the German
corridor to Rostov to 70 miles
and, captured more towns and
villages in drives on both sides
of Kharkov, ' the Russian mid
night communique reported
Saturday.
Repeating an announcement
made earlier in a special com
munique, the war bulletin broad
cast by Tass told of the fall of
Krasnoarmeiskaya, important rail
junction 23 miles northwest of
Stalino in a developing encircle
ment of large German forces in
the Donets basin.
German troops anchored in the
Rostov sector below the Donets
basin also were threatened with
the fall of the junction' on the
Dnieperopetrovsk-Stalino railway.
Only a single highly-vulnerable
outlet at Stalino is left to the
German forces extended to the
east.
(Unofficial estimates in London
said approximately 500,000 Ger
mans in the Donets basin and at
Rostov were endangered.)
Krasnodar la the western
Caucasus also- was declared to
have fallen. That' practically
completed the liberation) of the
Kuban Cossack : uoaatry, with

(The regular midnight soviet

fighting south of recaptured Kursk,
120 miles north of Kharkov, in
which 2000 Germans were cap
tured along with a large quantity
of equipment, including 50 guns
and 158 machine-guns.)

Union Shops

WLB Gives Policy;

Denied Finns i
WASHINGTON, Teb. 12 -P)
The war labor board Friday laid
down the dictum "that, as a gen
eral rule, a regularly-established
union shop or closed shop shall
remain regularly established for
the duration of the war." .
The decision, with employer
members dissenting, was issued in
the case of the Harvill I Aircraft
Die Casting corporation, Ingle
wood, CaliL, and the CIO nation
al association of die casting work
ers.
An agreement providing for a
union . shop there, requiring all
workers to be union members,
expired last April 15. The comt
pany refused to renew that pro
Vision and the' case came before
the WLB. . j . j
Dr. Frank P. Graham, public
member, said in the majority
opinion that the board, by delay
ing settlement of the case, must
share part of the responsibility
for the fact ' that since April 15
new workers have become em
ployes "without the knowledge or
acceptance of the conditions of
the union shop.1'
The board, consequently," he
said, "finds in conflict two of its
basic policies in this case:
"First, that a worker shall not
be compelled by the government
to join a- union to get a jjob; and
second, ' the herewith j j declared
policy that a company cannot
take advantage of the ho-strike
agreement to give up "a union
shop previously established by
the agreement of ,; the " company
and the union. 1
"It is the responsibility of the
board to 'resolve - this conflict in
basic policies and yet niake clear
that, as a general rule,' aj regular
