Ingrad province, about 80 miles
from the city itself.
It called upon the Russian
soldiers to emulate the heroic
band of 28 who died fighting
" German tanks barehanded in
the snows before Moscow last
winter.
In offensive action, the Rus-
slan air force bombed Koenigs
berg, East Prussian port, again
. last night
: Six largo fires could be seen
through the heavy overcast, the
Moscow radio said, and four
large explosions were touched
off by the bombing. Thirty-eight
fires were reported set in the
1 city in a Russian attack last
' Saturday night.
British military sources con
ceded that small German armor
ed forces may have reached the
lower Don and said "there is
i no denying the danger to Ros
tov" from this and related op-
' erations.
The Germans seemed to be
converging on Rostov from
three directions: from Taganrog,
i 40 miles to the west; from Vor
', oshiloygrad, 100 miles to the
," north, and from Millerovo, 130
, miles to the north northeast,
i The Russians officially ac-
- knowledged a continuing retreat
' over the scorched earth and
dynamited -coal fields of the
Don basin, from Voroshilovgrad
southeastward, and British
sources voiced fear that large
Russian forces in a salient above
.Taganrog were threatened,
The British said that in the
battle of Voronezh, some 300
miles north of Rostov, the Rus
sians had wiped out all but
one of the German bridgeheads
across the upper Don for their
"siege of Voronezh, 10 miles east
of the river.
Wrest Control
The' Russians reported their
forces near Voronezh had wrest
ed control of four Don cross
ings and that more than 10,000
of the foe had been killed in
one week of fighting there.
-; The qualified successes of
Russian counter-attacks at Vor
onezh, however, seemed to have
little effect on the German
drive across the Don steppes
toward Stalingrad and throueh
.the industrialized Don basin to
ward Rostov.

The commission will hold a
meeting this afternoon, presum
ably to re-examine the Hlggiiis
contract.
Concerned "over the great
number of sinkings of American
cargo vessels," the somite com
mittee also will consider the pro
posal of Henry L, Kaiser, Port
land, Ore., shipbuilder, that nine
United States shipyards be
equipped for the manufacture of
6000 flying boats a year as a
quicker way to thwart axis sub
marines. Hearings on the steel situation
are to start August 6, after the
committee has heard Kaiser,
Glenn Martin, whose Mars fly
ing boat would be adapted to the
transport of troops and supplies
under the Kaiser plan, and of
ficials of the war production
board.
Chairman Truman said the
committee was "surprised to
learn" that the Higgins contract
was to be cancelled after mil
lions of dollars of government
money had been spent on roads,
canals and other basic construc
tion for the Higgins corporation
at New Orleans.

shipping losses during the week
of July 12 were the highest since
the wur began and that sinkings
of United Natiojis' vessels have
greatly exceeded new construc
tion. Jap Louos
The nnvy, meanwhile, had nn
nounced the sinking of three
more Japanese destroyers of
United Stntes submarines. In the
vicinity of the Aleutian island
of Kiska. This brought Japan's
losses n the Aleutian area to six
destroyers, one transport and
one cruiser sunk: one destroyer
probably sunk; and four cruis
ers, two destroyers, one aircraft
carrier, one gunboat and one
transport damaged.
On tho shipping crisis, the
shipping administration gave
this report:
"Shipping losses during the
week of July 12 reached their
highest level since the beginning
of the war," While construction
in American shipyards is break
ing all records, sinkings of Unit
ed Nations' ships through enemy
action and marine casualties
have greatly exceeded new con
struction.
British Output Small '
"Construction of new mer
chant tonnage In Great Britain
continues within tho limits of its
available supply of labor nnd
matcriols but the volume is not
large. The great bulk of new
shipping must come from Ameri
can yards supplemented by the'
production of Canadian yards.
which turn out a relatively smal
tonnage compared to the United
States.
"It can be stated that nd es
sential military cargoes have
been left on piers because of
lack of ships. The war shipping
administration has been able, by
radical conversion of our ship
ping resources to war opera
tions, to meet the necessarily
exacting requirements of our
armed services."
Always read the want-ads.
