None of the ' enemy assaults caused any seri ous damage, it was said officially- - Meanwhile . the Australian government voiced belief that enemy agents, possibly landed from submarines in the manner of an ill-starred German sabo tage effort against the United . States, were operating in Aus tralia, tipping the Japanese off - on secret military movements. The disobedience plan of In t dia's foremost nationalist leader and exponent of immediate in dependence from Britain, Gand hi, inspired a declaration yes terday by Sir Stafford Crlpps, .

He said the current Kesterson contract was entered into on September 1, 1841, and was scheduled for au tomatic renewal unless cither of the parties gave notice of termi nation 30 days prior to Septem ber 1. 1942. He termed the CIO petition a "strategic, political move," de signed to aid organizational ef forts for the Impending impor tant NLRB election covering 900 employes or the Weyemacusor Timber company mill, scheduled for August 6. It was believed that, following usual procedure, the NLRB would order a hearing held on the CIO petition. In the past, hearings have been held within approximately 90 days of the pe tition date. More than 240 Kes terson employes are involved.

Officially, the Russians an nounced merely that the battle for the Caucasus continued through the night at Voronezh, 300 miles north of Rostov, the northern flank of the Germans' eastward and southern offen sive, and in the vicinity of Ros tov, Novocherkassk and Tsimly- ansk. Combat Hot Waves of tanks and motorized infantry, supported by mobile artillery and bomber squadrons, beat down upon the Russians in both the Rostov and Tsimlyansk areas. By Russian reports, the Tsimlyansk pressure was the greater for it was only there that the defenders conceded foot holds on the south bank of the strntiinr? wntprlina l Th. mmmnllinna fcaM tViot fierce combat continued on the outskirts of Rostov but that in one sector the enemy had broken into "the heart of our defenses."

' j RUTHERFORD TRAFF G DEATH TREND FALLING HEREIN 1942 Klamath county traffic fatali ties show a strong downward trend this year, as compared to the fatality toll for the corre sponding period of last year, in line with a similar statewide trend reported by Earl Snell, secretary of state. Up to the beginning of the third week of July, fatalities for the county were 45.4 per cent under those listed in a corres' ponding period last year. The figure for 1942 so far Is six, and for 1941, 11. This is well un der the percentage drop record ed In the state, which, in turn, is well under the national aver age. Secretary of State Snell said that fatalities to July 13 of this year for the state were 25.8 per cent under the 1941 toll for the same period and 27.S under thej same period in 1940. For the nation as a whole, the toll this year is a little over ten per cent under the deaths for last year and about the same as for the same period In 1940. Snell said he believed Ore gon drivers were according wide compliance with President Roosevelt's request for a 40 mile maximum speed. The re duced speeds tend to eliminate many serious accidents on the highways and at the same time, they tend to increase the lifo of present automotive equip ment. Significant of the way re duced speeds reduce fatal acci dents, according to the secre tary of state, are the figures on rural accidents in Oregon. Fa talities in rural areas are down more than 26 per cent, while fatalities in urban areas : are about the same as last year. Most of Oregon's fatal accidents occur in rural areas where higher speeds are common, Snell said, pointing out that If reduced speeds cut the rural accident rate appreciably, many lives will be saved in this state.

' Tobruk Blasted A heavy force of bombers blasted the axis supply port of Tobruk again last night, touch ing off fires and explosions and scoring a direct hit on an enemy ship, British headquarters an nounced today. The attack was. the second in two nights, following a heavy as sault Saturday in which United Slates heavy bombers took a prominent part. American airmen reported a big area of Tobruk lit up by blazing gasoline after the Satur day night raid. They called this their most successful operation of the African campaign although thick layers of cloud often pre vented them from seeing the : target. ! American airmen did not par- ; ticipate in last night's Tobruk raid. The British reported no plane I losses in their attacks on enemy ' supply ports, but said that one German plane had been shot ' down last night near Alexandria ! Long range fighters of the i RAF meanwhile attacked axis barges off Sidi Barranl, another enemy supply port on the Egypt ian side of the Libyan frontier, a communique said. Two' Named on Bod Check Charges In Justice Court R. T. Gustafson and Luther Edgar Stalling! were named on two justice court complaints to day charging them with obtain ing money by false pretenses. Both were accused of passing a bad check for $10 to the Ore gon food store No. 2. They took time to plead and were com mitted to the county jail in lieu of $500 or $1000 property bonds, Stallings was also named on a separate complaint asserting that he cashed a worthless $20 check at a Piggly Wiggly store. He waived preliminary hearing and heard his bond set at $1000 cash or $2000 property. He was committed. No general can be lucky un less he is bold.
