bridgeheads on the west bank of
the Dnieper still held by the Rus

grand assault on the new soviet
defense line was about to begin.
German dispatches said that
nasi siege guns were intensifying
the attack on Odessa, Russia's big
Black sea port, and that in
creased pressure was also being
exerted on Kiev, the Ukraine
capital. Nazi aerial observers
said Odessa harbor was littered
with the burned wreckage of
ships.
The Russians, noting bitter all-
night fighting along the entire
front, conceded that the Germans

culated in official circles that the
controversy would be settled
amicably, without the necessity
of the government taking over
the plant. The union demanded
that the government take such
action and the company offered
the plant to the navy.
The union and the company
have been at odds over a recom
mendation by the defense media
tion board that the company
sign with the union a contract
containing a "maintenance of
membership" clause which
would require all shipyard work
ers in the union to retain their
membership or be discharged.

Prediction
"I regard it as Inevitable," he
told the mass meeting, "that
this far northwest will, in due
course and by an orderly pro
cedure, under which a just and
fair price will be paid for exist
ing private utilities, come to be
a great self-contained public
power empire with Industry bal
ancing agriculture, and with ag
riculture finding a market local
ly for its products, while the
great supporting Industries of
mining, lumbering, shipbuilding
and fishing make their consid
erable respective contributions
to the public welfare."
A start toward this end, he
suggested, might be made by
erecting aluminum fabricating
plants in the northwest to utilize
the pig aluminum already pro
duced here.
The secretary said there was
also possibility that plants
might be built In this state to
extract aluminum from alunlte,
a plentiful but low grade ore,
and that a magnesium operation
might be established in, Spokane.
