holm dispatch said the Swedish
paper Svenska Dagbladet declar
ed the Finnish Rovcrnmcnt crisis
had been "defnetor solved," a
phrase interpreted to mean that
the cabinet was reformed, and

conditions.
Anniversary
The new Russian offensives
were launched on the third an
niversary of the German invas
ion of the soviet union, and ap
parently were aimed at clearing
the Murmansk - Leningrad rail
way of Finnish forces.
One of the thrusts was launch
ed along the Svir river, between
Lakes Ladoga and Oneca (One
ihskoe), approximately 150 to
200 miles northeast of Viipuri.
The other was started about 100
miles further north, above Lake
Onega, and cracked Finnish lines
east of Mcdvezhegorsk, at the
northwestern tip of the.' lake.
The broadcast Russian com
munique said that in the first
day of tha attack along the Svir
more than 200 populated places
had been occupied. .

turned and fled with all speed
toward tha China sea. Nightfall
saved it from further battering
and there was no indication
from Adm. Chester W. Nimitz,
who announced the victory to
day, that the battle had been
resumed.
Plane Losses
In the Sunday air battle pre
ceding the bigger struggle,
American plane losses were 21
against Japan's SS3. The Sun
day attack represented an arm's
length enemy attempt to break
up the American invasion of
Saipan, principal island of the
Marianas and only 1500 miles
from Tokyo and the Philip
pines. Admiral Nimitz also an
nounced that 353 enemy planes
were shot down in the Japanese
futile attempt Sunday on Ad
miral Mitscher's carrier force.
This added 53 enemy craft to
the previous estimate of 300
destroyed.
carrier mi
Two U. S. carriers and one
battleship suffered "superficial
damage" and 21 aircraft were
lost in combat. A tieet spokes
man said superficial damage
means the ship's capacity for
battle was not ' impaired, indi
cating these three probably par
ticiDated in Monday's action.
The attack of the fifth fleet
under command of Adm. Ray
mond A. Spruancc was such a
complete surprise that the Japa
nese apparently made no coun
ter attack against any of our
surface units.
Admiral Nimitz, who stayed
at his headquarters past mid
night receiving battle reports
and still appeared bright-eyed
despite his 60 years, said the
Japanese force consisted of four
or more battleships, five or six
cruisers, five fleet tankers and
an unspecified number of cruis
ers and destroyers.

A principal change in the pro
posed rate schedule would base
the company's rates on the
hogged fuel price delivered at
the company's plant. Instead of
the price at the source of supply
as in the past. Thus, transporta

the rates.
The following is taken from
the amendment to the tariff pro
posed by the company:
"Hogged Fuel Price Differential:
All rates for steam quoted In
the schedules of this tariff are
base rates, subject at all times
to a differential based on tne
