Minsk Falls to Red Army; Opens Way to Warsaw (Continued from Page One) flash In Moscow's -skies tonight to set a triumphant seal to the victory. The soviet entry into the city was preceded by Russian drives across the two main rail routes to the southwest and northwest out of Minsk. The Russians covered 12'4 miles In their lost dash Into the city, last night's soviet com munique having reported them that distance away. MOSCOW," July 3 (P) In al most every sector, the Russians said, German commanders ap peared unable to break tne on rushing tide of soviet tanks, cavalry and infantry advancing relentlessly under on air cover that grows daily iin strength. There were continued signs of indecision on the part of nazl loaders as well as lack of contact between enemy d 1 v i sions deployed along the front, front dispatches declared. . Bv no stretch of the Imag ination, one soviet correspon dent said, can the collapse of German resistance be called a "planned retreat or even a sys tematic withdrawal." EDITORIALS ON NEWS (Continued From Page One) Hon. If they are borne out, they will mean almost certainly the beginning of the German end. Similar mutinies in their armed forces, both army and navy, signaled the crumbling of German resistance in 1918. So far, the Germans on the eastern front have fought cooly, bravely and skilfully. If their morale REALLY IS breaking at Minsk, it is a new development of tho utmost importance. Let's be SURE of it before we believe it. TT is announced officially to day that 19 German generals have been killed or captured in less than a month. Our side to day estimates German casualties since Italy at 394,000. (Killed and captured, presumably, since only the Germans can know the total of their wounded.) Of the 394,000, the Russians have accounted for 219,000, leaving 175.000 to have been done in by the Americans and British. If these figures are any where near accurate, we're obvi ously beginning to carry our share of the load. A BOUT 60 per cent of Saipan is now under our control, and Nimltz says today that 6015 Japs have been buried and 200 taken prisoner. The .correspondents on the scene expect a decisive battle with large bodies of Japanese troops soon. UAC ARTHUR hits three 1 1 times (twice from the air and once by sea bombardment) at Noemfoor island, 50 miles west of Biak in the Schoutcns. It is guessed that he is probably preparing for a jump across Geelvink bay (see map) to the far northwest tip of New Guinea thus edging nearer to the Philippines. EVERYWHERE but in China, the news is ALL in favor of our side. 1 In China, the Japs have flow ed around Hcncyane (like tho Russians at Minsk) and are re ported today 46 miles south of it. Chinese are still holding out in Hengyang, but their situation is probably hopeless. At the same time, the Japs are coming up from Canton to close the last gap and cut western China off from the Pacific.

There were indications that Field Marshal Rommel was regrouping his forces there numbering 1 1 divisions alter being beaten back in 25 thrusts against the British wedge across the Odon river. Nasi Expectation! The new offensive came after Lt.-Gen. Omar N.

In dications were that Rommel was readying an all-out counter-at tack against the British. "We are ready," said one British of ficer. Cloudy Wathr Clouds so dense that the air men called them "ten-tenths cloaked the entire bridgehead in Normandy. The weather was getting to be known as the worst for June and July in the past 40 years. Allied air forces were able to fly only about 400 sorties over the battle area yesterday, but they managed to shoot down 22 enemy aircraft against a loss of three of their own, commun ique No. so disclosed.

Cap de la Hague over tne. - weekend. Between 2000 and '3000 .more prisoners were taken in the process. An Associated Press dispatch from Cherbourg said . the American bag of prisoners had reached 40,000 which would indicate the total since D-Day had faactMtl more tnan os.oou. Flrat Army Supreme headquarters dis closed yesterday that Bradley's command is the U. S. first army. This army and the British seo ond army form the 21st army group in Normandy which MonU gomery commands under lien. Dwight D.i Eisenhower. Brad ley's command is parallel to that of Lt. Gen. M. C. Dempaey, com mander of tne British second army.
