Direct Blow Seen Thus, in Mountbatten's back ground, military observer! found basis for speculation that a di rect blow by air and sea may be aimed in the near future at the vital port of Rangoon,- even as the offensive down the Arakan coast is continued with stepped up intensity. Success in reopening the Bur ma road would serve the double objective of getting more sup plies in to the Chinese forces of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, and as a route for bringing in fuel for allied planes and bomb ers for close-up air attack on : Japan from Chinese bases. . China Bases ': Increased allied use of Chi nese, air bases might well com pel Japan to pull in a substantial part of her air forces defending her outlying island empire, and thereby ease the tough north ward drive confronting Gen. Douglas MacArthur. Upon his arrival here. Mount batten will find a special mis sion from his homeland which came to study "maximum Brit ish cooperation with the United States in future operations against Japan" with the specific of laying "the logistical founda tion for Britain s contribution in that objective. . Mountbatten will command American and Chinese as well as British, Canadian and Indian forces. One factor probably taken into consideration in his appointment is that the pre ponderance of his troops are British and principally natives.

Red Star said the Germans at tempted to make a stand at Zen kov, concentrating numerous re serves and organizing special units for counterattacks. Fight Along River The battle for this point was fought along a river covering Zenkov from the east. The red army crossed the river at night, Red Star said, and forced Ger mans to withdraw. The occupation of Zenkov, north of Oposhnya which was previously captured, indicated the Soviets were making their main effort directly to the west instead of descending on the sec ondary objective of Poltava. Another large German force was reported defeated in a bat tle for Akhtyrka, 25 miles north east of Zenkov, which was final ly taken by the red army yes terday after a seesaw struggle.

A critical food shortage devel oped in Fredericia. due to the blasting of railway lines in that area. One Stockholm newspaper, Al lehanda, speculated whether the Germans planned to' institute military control, intern King Christian and strip the Danish government of its powers. - German troops and members of the gestapo moved into Ros- kude, reputedly . to "help the Danish authorities enforce the emergency regulations." Six oth er major Danish cities were placed under such a decree early this week.

Spending money for the two girls' Fourth of July celebration was secured when one of the girls stole the coin purse out of a pocketbook carelessly laid down open by the owner who was applying makeup in an other part of a store restroom. The coin purse contained $34. ' Rob Station Just recently the girls ob tained a little extra spending money by robbing a service sta tion at Ninth and High streets. One of the girls on some pre tense got the service station at tendant to go around the side of the building with her while the other girl entered the sta tion and took $15 rolled for banking. Unique Bank Although there are two banks here, the two young culprits evidently didn't trust those in stitutions with their money. In stead they had it all changed to bills which they rolled tightly and hid in the small opening of the hollow cylinder near the armrest of a theatre seat. When their funds got low they went to the show, somehow secured the same seat and extracted some of the reserve supply of bills with a hairpin. (P. S. County Juvenile Officer Harold Hendrickson investigated all the theatres Thursday and there is no money left in the theatre seat armrests). Now in Custody Both girls, who are now in custody of juvenile authorities, come from broken homes. Juvenile delinquency of this sort is steadily being detected and corrected in Klamath coun ty by the hard work and coop eration of city and county law enforcement and juvenile offi cers.

HOTPOTS LEWIS ON DEFENSE (Continued from Page One) union policy committee meeting soon was given no support, al though that has been tha usual step when Lewis was planning new exploits. The statutory status given the war labor board (WLB) which ho since defied, the penalties for striking under tha new war labor disputes act and the WLB com pliance sanctions approved by the president apparently have forced Lewis to revamp his en tire strategy. Ho may await the WLB's decision on the anthra cite wage dispute before deter mining upon his next move. Strike Disclaimed The Interpretation that a turn back of the mines to private ownership automatically meant a strike is unofficially- disclaim ed in UMW circles. The policy committee's statement in June directed the miners to roturn to work until October 31 with the proviso that this agreement would "automatically terminate" if the government relinquishes its custody of the mines before then. UMW sources now say this was a reservation, not a threat and furthermore they em phasize that it was an official policy committee. statement and not a personal commitment by Lewis. They say in effect, that no general work stoppage is con templated, at least for the pre sent. Oakes Changed Will After Row With De Marigny (Continued From Page One) she added.
