Russia's great counter-drive on

where Feodosiya, on the south

reported recaptured by com

This "victory report" must
have come as a surprise to the

Russians Weep at
As Soviet Troops
(Editor's Note The following
dispatch written for United
Press by Ilya Ehrenbourg, noted
Russian author, describes scenes
in Russian territory regained
from the Germans by the soviet
counter-offensive.)
By ILYA EHRENBOURG
Written for United Press
MOSCOW, Jan. 19 (UP) The
old man was carrying a chicken
in his hands when he came up to
welcome soviet troops who had
driven the Germans from the vil
lage. .. ; . ,
"Do you receive fools as visi
tors?" he asked after a low
bow.
"I am one of them," he con
tinued. "I thought that if the
Germans come, what's that to
me? I am only one of the 'small
fry,' and already have one foot
In the grave. They won't touch
me.
"They did come. They drove
away my little granddaughter; I
don't know where she is now.
They slaughtered my cow and
took my felt boots from my feet.
Do you see what I am wearing?"
The old man said he hid one
chicken from the nazis, and that
when he heard that the soviet
army was approaching, he built
a fire In the stove and had his
wife roast the fowl for the sol
diers. "Thanks for coming," he said,
and wept
Around him were scores of vil
lage women, also weeping
shedding tears of joy, crying for
the first time in three months of
a hard and bitter winter.
They told me they had been
afraid to utter a sound to each
other while the Germans were
there. They had not cried, and
their eyes had been hard and
dry as they looked at the Ger
mans. Now, the floodgates were
opened.
People passing me on the
road, heading west Into former
ly occupied and often devastat
ed territory now In the grip of
winter, are smiling as they press
forward to see whether their
houses are left or their farms
damaged. Only a short time ago
they were headed east with stern
and mournful faces.
I witnessed the reoccupntion
of the city of Medyn, impor
tant junction for four roads. It
had long ago been outflanked
by the Russian counter-offensive,
and was under trench-mortar
bombardment from the north
west. The attack began at night. In
the morning it was announced
that Medyn had been occupied
by the Russians. The German
defending force was wiped out
or scattered into the wods, and
many trophies were taken, in-

Murray to Present
Lewis Peace Plan
NEW YORK, Jan. 19 (AP
Philip Murray, CIO president,
today advised John L. Lewis,
president of the United Mine
Workers of America, that he
would present Lewis' proposal
for a resumption of CIO-AFL
peace conferences to a meeting
of the CIO executive board here
.January 24.
Murray pointed out in a let
ter to Lewis, his predecessor as
head of the CIO, that all ar
rangements in behalf of the CIO
"with reference 'to unity with
the American Federation of La
bor wjll necessarily have to be
initiated through the office of
the president of the Congress of
Industrial Organizations."
BONUS FOR BIRTHS
ST. LOUIS, (P) The stork
has been made a party to a union
contract signed by Air Rifle
Manufacturer A. P. Spaek with
the CIO Electrical, Radio and
Machine Workers.
As an argument for a wage
increase during negotiations for
the contract, one of Spack's 60
employes presented him with'
estimates of bills for an antici
pated heir.
Convinced of the soundness of
the argument, Spack incorpor
ated a clause in the contract pro
viding $23 for each child born
to an employe In 1942.
And there's "no ceiling" In the
clause.
