Stop Counterblows In Holland, British infantry and parachuted troops of two American divisions stopped Ger man counterattacks against the vital Waal bridge at Nijmegen, and the fighting grew fiercer in the sharp allied wedge across the German border into the Reichs wald forest. A frontline correspondent said the Germans were digging in frantically along the Maas (Mouse) river, hoping to prolong the war through another winter. But the British second army steadily was building up strength in its 50-milc long corridor into the Netherlands. Hit Pockets Canadian army troops north west of Antwerp hit westward against sizeable German pockets above that port, and Polish sol diers deepened their bridgehead across the Antwerp canal west of Turnhout, capturing Merxplas in a two-mile advance. The battle for Calais resumed at noon, after a 24-hour truce ar ranged for evacuation of some 2U.UUU civilians, waroianes nov- ering overhead swooped down at expiration of the deadline, ana by late afternoon German pris oners by the hundreds were streaming back into allied pris on cages. Ttte siege ot tne port appeared nearing an end. Tne uerman colonel com manding at Calais was said to have declared: "I have received orders from my fuehrer to fight to the last man. and that is what I intend to do."- Cape Falls On the coast. Cape Gris Nez had fallen to Canadian assault and its cross-channel batteries that had made life touch-and-go in Dover and Folkestone for four hard years were silenced at last. German troops who pushed to the south bank of the Dutch Rhine opposite Arnhem were shoved back across the river last night and destroyed the north ern approaches to the bridge in their desperation to prevent a British crossing. EDITORIALS ON NEWS (Continued From Page One) 15,000 civilians on Tinian 3700 formed a voluntary battalion of death and fell on the battlefield. It adds: "The aged, the women and the children committed-suicide as soon as the enemy had pierced the last defensive posi tions. It was similar on the is land of Guam." An enemy like that ISN'T completely human. ' But of this we can be sure: The SUB HUMAN brains of the Japanese won't be able to compete suc cessfully with CIVILIZED brains. AU history proves that point. - N the home front, Nelson w gets back from China which seems to be the American SIBERIA (Wallace was sent there just before his throat was cut at umcago.) Arriving home, Nelson is fired as head of the war production board, with the intimation that he will be kicked upstairs to some kind of "high post of ma jor importance. Krug (who seems to be a pretty good man) is named WPB chairman in Nel son's place. ... NJELSON hasn't been perfect, A 1 Few men are. But one has the feeling that he has done a pretty good job of production which has served our armed forces extremely well. His main trouble seems to have been lack of support from tne boss in the pinches. Every one who has held an administra tive job. large or small, knows how hard it is to get results if tne Doss tails to back him up when the going gets rough. If the past is any guide to the tuture, ivrug will probably run into tne same trouble.
