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

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

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

and once by sea bombardment)

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.
