Canucks Push Drive
By WILLIAM FRYE
LONDON, Oct. 21 (AP) Eight hundred German troops, the last defenders of wasted
Aachen, surrendered unconditionally at noon today and all resistance ended inside and in
tho suburbs of the first big German city to fall to American arms.
Two thousand prisoners already had been taken by first army men who captured the
medieval city 40 miles from Cologne.
Despite Hitler's orders to resist to death, the 800 enemy troops surrendered when
Lt.-Gcn. Courtney Hodges' doughboys pressed them' into hopeless traps at the fringe, after
taking the center of the city.
Seventy miles to the northwest, the Canadian first army pushed a three-pronged of
fensive four milos nearer the German strongholds of Rossendaal a n d Breda in battle
carrying over rain-soaked fields obove Antwerp.
West of Antwerp, Canadian troops attacked at 10 a. m., today and entered the out
skirts of Sreskens, stronghold in the diminishing German pocket south of the Schelde
estuary. Thrusting into the northern sector of the pocket, the Canadians advanced a
mile in two hours with artillery and aerial support, and hopped a water obstacle before
Breskens.

KIWIMEL'S LAWYER
PROTESTS DELAY
By HAMILTON W. FARON
WASHINGTON, Oct. 21 iP)
Announcement that a completed
"secret" report on the navy's in
vestigation of the Pearl Harbor
attack is being reviewed prior
to any publication today brought
a protest from Rear Admiral
Husband E. Kimmcl's lawyer
that the procedure is "a spec
ious pretext" to withhold the
findings until after the presi
dential election.
Counsel for Kimmcl, who
commanded navy forces in
Havali when the Japanese
struck' there, stated: "He (Kim
mel) is c.nUUe4lQ hear. the
verdict of the court promptly."
Navy Secretary Forrestal yes
terday turned the report over
to Ernest J. King, navy com
mander in chief, for a determ
ination of its effects on military
security.
" And in Boston, Charles B.
Rugg, chief counsel for Kimmel,
asserted that "Secretary For
restal's' suggested procedure is
a specious pretext to keep the
truth of Pearl Harbor hidden
from Dec. 7, 1941, until Nov.
7, 1944." (Date of the national
election).

The 6000-foot bomber field at

Pending the seizure and utili
