toward Coblcnz.
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.

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

cessfully with CIVILIZED
