Junction Indicated A German militarv spokesman quoted by the Berlin radio re ported a "narrow passage of communications" between the Nijmegen and Arnhem groups, Indicating that advanced elements had made a junction. Hn said the passage was under heavy gunfire and virtually useless as a supply route. Only a few narrow canals be tween Nijmegen and Arnhenj barred the way to the broad Ger man plains sweeping eastward 200 miles beyond the Dutch border to Berlin, and it appeared that the Germans had left little in the Immediate area to halt the Ameri can and British thrust. The Germans, faced with the possible loss of 100,000 men pinned against the Dutch coast West of Nijmegen as well, as a direct invasion blow toward Ber lin, were throwing every avail able man, gun, and tank into the battle.

The younger Peterson has been in New York for years, more recent ly in Washington, D. C, where he is in the service. Mrs. Laura Harris, one of Lane county's staunchest republicans, was taken up to shake hands with Dewey, and it was announced Wednesday was Mrs. Harris' 89th birthday. L. N. Roney, who was 91 on Sept. 2, also was among the crowd to greet Dewey. So great was the crush as the train drew to a stop at Eugene, the crowd got out of control and broke through the ropes, nearly stampeding newspaper reporters and photographers who . were nearest the platform.

Dewey Easy- (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) Is it one can't put the finger en in the way of doubt? The visitation in th: train car brought the conclusion to this in dividual that the lack of warmth, oi rather spontaneity detected in the Portland appearance probably is due to modesty, bordering al most on timidity, on the part of the New York governor. And some will say that sounds queer, considering Dewey as the former racket-busting district attorney pnd now governorof the Empire state, and considering the very calm and deliberate manner In which he spoke at Portland. Anyway, we just suspect he Is shy of putting on any too ani mated dramatic show. Dewey has a beautiful speaking voice and his delivery is very nearly perfect except for a little more spontaneity well, maybe, we just thought there should have been a little more unbending, a little more emoting in the Port land talk (and that was a poor example to use for any ciriticism, since, after, all, Dewey and his party had been through some very severely gruelling and nerve jolting experiences just preceding his appearance on the Portland platform.) And, then maybe, when the e a m p,a i g n really warms up Dewey becomes warmer, too. Mrs. Dewey is very attractive, one of those persons who radiates charm and personality and she likewise has what it takes to be calm under 'all circumstances. She received a head injury in the Castle Rock . wreck, one that caused a headache for hours, but she smilingly went through the rest of the evening's program in Portland, Tuesday (including that awful ordeal of handshaking for nearly two hours as a mnh filaa by), and Wednesday was on the train, appearing refreshed and ready to meet a new day's ex- periences. , Still the country girl who was ' reany mniiea witn tne train ride, this person couldn't help, but en tertain a fleeting supposition: "If GOV. Dewev is elected, thpn T ran say, oh yes, I have met the presi-, dent, I rode on a special train ' with him, and visited with him ' for a minute or two."- Oh well, all republicans ' have a right to their dreams. , . Press representatives greeted newcomers getting on at Portland with the wise-crack: "Don't you realize what might happen to you, joining this crowd?" The press group received the brunt of the train wreck damage. and several on the train Wednes day had bruises and scratches on their faces and heads. One correspondent pointed out to us has recently returned from the European war fronts, un scratched, and in the Tuesday mis hap received a brutal crack on the nose. . At the Ice arena lrr Portland Tuesday night, the press section resembled a boxing arena just through with a battle royal more than it did a press row some heads being swatched In bandages, adhesive ' tape being here and there over face and hands, and one or two limping from leg in juries. Westbrook Pegler, noted col umnist, put on a very special show as he staggered into the Multnomah hotel, Tuesday after noon, after thumbing a ride on a truck from Castle Rock. " , what a trip!" he moaned. When some one called out, "what do you think of the wild west?" Pegler shot back, "give me New York!" .
