It appears that the political
prestige in Florida of Dr.
Francis E. Townsend, the old
age pension advocate, has been
broken.
U. S. Senator Charles An
drews defeated an attempt by
the pension leader to purge him
by winning the democratic re
nomination by landslide propor
tions. Returns from yesterday's run
off primary show that Andrews
holds almost a 135,000-vote edge
over his nearest opponent.
In fact, it was a double set
back for Townsend, as Spessard
Holland, campaigning fnr the
democrotic nomination as gov
ernor, won over the Townsend
candidate by a large majority.

Trench Mam For Drive
Unofficial report that th French
were m using their annlea of the
center for a drive to relieve the pres
sure in Handera were given color
by a Paris communique announcing
new successes along the Somme and
Alsne rivers.
The last German forces on the
south aide of the Somme were re
ported driven back across the river
and the French said the situation
there was "highly favorable."
The French declared the Germane
were suffering heavy casualties In
their attempt to clean out the
Flanders pocket, and the Marts ad
mitted their losses were large, but
held they were not disproportionate
to their gains.
Germans bombed the pocketed
allied forces mercilessly In an at
tempt to "soften up" resistance, and
the alllea retaliated by strafing Nazi
ground troops and bombing fuel
reserves at Bremen and Hamburg.
Two Allied efforts
The allied armies of the center
apparently were concentrating their
efforts in two separate sectors.
One allied push was reported In
the area of the Somme river. An
other attack was poised further east,
along the Alsne river, where 30 divi
sions, or between 450.000 and 000,000
men, were massed.
The Germans pounded on with
all their ml;ht of air power, tanks
and artillery op the allied divisions
crushed Into a triangle around Lille
about M miles wide and 65 miles
long.
Nazis described this area aa being
based on the channel coast, about
50 miles wide but tapered sharply
to about 33 miles and reaching a
point at St. Armand, about 30 miles
southeast of Lille.
