"During last night, our troops continued stubborn fighting in the Murmansk, Dvinsk, Minsk and Luck sectors," a Russian communi que said. "In other sectors of the front, reconnaissance, frequent troop re grouping and artillery duels took place." ?he roar of cannonading was re ported in major sections along most of the 2,000-mile front from the Baltic to the Black Sea.

INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION Reich's war flag has been flying from the citadel since 4:20 a. m. (6:20 p. m. PST., Sunday.") The city lies 50 miles inside sovietized Poland from the Ger man frontier. It was in this sector, less than two years ago, that the routed Po lish army was forced to capitu late to German forces who later yielded it to Russia when Poland was partitioned. Fight on Old Frontiers While the Germans claimed a rapid-fire series of successes, it was apparent that with the excep tion of the Minsk area, Russia's Red armies still were fighting west of the 1939 Soviet frontiers. In addition, a Moscow communi que declared that German attempts to knife across the Karelian is thmus from Finland, now fighting at the side of Germany, and to land troops by sea at Viipuri were re pulsed. Viipuri is on the gulf of Fin land, only 74 miles by railroad from Leningrad, Russia's second largest city. The Soviet war bulletin also as serted that the Red army still was holding against violent attacks ranging from Murmansk, on the Barents sea, to the vicinity of Minsk and on south through the Luck-Lwow gateway to the great wheatfields of the Ukraine. Tanks StUl Battle In this region, between Luck and Lwow, a flaming battle of 4,000 German and Soviet tanks raged into its fifth day with the nazi juggernaut seeking to break through to the Ukraine capital of Kiev, 250 miles eastward. The Berlin radio announced the occupation of Luck, 100 miles northwest of Lwow, but this could not b confirmed. West of Minsk, in the Bialystok sector of old Poland, the Germans declared two Soviet armies werej trapped. Military sources in Vichy I heard the two armies numbered 400,000 mn, but they gave them a chance to break through. By contrast, Russian military $25 REWARD Will be paid by the manufacturer for any Corn or Callous GREAT CHRISTOPHER Corn Salve can not remove. It never fails. 35 and 60c at PENNY WISE.

On the Viipuri front, the Rus sians said, 300 nazis were killed in a single assault and the entire German landing party put ashore near vupun was wiped out. France broke off diplomatic re lations with Russia this morning with the official explanation that "Soviet diplomatic and consular agents in France were carrying out activities against the public order and security of the state." It was the first time France had reached an open break against any of German s enemies. As the second week of fighting on the Eastern front began amid a barrage of special German high command announcements detail ing nazi successes thus far, Fin land and Slovakia pitched in ac tively against Russia at various points along the far-flung front Finns Follow Leader Cannon blazed all alone the 600-mile Russian-Finnish frontier as the Finns, heeding an appeal from Field Marshal Baron Carl Gustaf Mannerheim to follow him in a "holy war against the Rus sians, cast off their policy of pas sive resistance. The Slovak high command de clared that the forces of the tiny state, which is all Adolf Hitler left of Czecho-SIovakia, had driven deep into Soviet territory to seize prisoners and material. The German high command claimed that 2,233 Russian tanks, 4,107 Russian planes and 1,297 Russian armored cars had been destroyed during the first week of war; that 40,000 Russian prisoners and 600 big guns had been cap tured. All this at a cost of 150 Ger man planes. The Red army called these claims "boastful humbug" and gave its own figures: 2,500 Ger man tanks destroyed to 900 Rus sian, 1,500 German planes des troyed to 850 Russian; 30,000 Ger man prisoners taken to 15,000 Rus sian.
