The stretch of subway, run ning under Unter Den Linden from Anhaltcr, was being used as a hospital during the fighting for Berlin. Nazi S. S. lenders are reported to have flooded it when those in the tunnel signi fied a wish to surrender just be fore the city fell. A British member of the allied transport commission said the bodies were those of wounded soldiers and hospital workers with Red Cross arm brassards. PETA1NS PLANS (Continued from Paee One) Judee Paul Moneibeaux then read into the record what he said was a telegram from re tain to Hitler asking permission for Vichy troops to help the Germans in defense. The issue arose : during the cross examination of former Premier E d o u a r d Daladier, whose angry testimony was -punctuated by chair slamming and shouts. Daladier was followed to the stand by the last elected presi dent of the third republic, Al bert Lebrun dressed in a for mal morning coat and striped trousers and wearing a rosette of the Legion of Honor, in his lapel. Lebrun recited a succession of military defeats which preceded the i rencn armistice. Juror Questions 'The telegram was read in re sponse to a juror's questioning of Daladier, who had testified that "all the traitors of France" flocked to Vichy after the armis tice and that the Petain regime destroyed the republic. Dala dier nad declared tnat t rance was not unarmed when the Ger mans struck in 1940. The same juror asked Dala dier whether he knew of a tele gram from Petain to Hitler con gratulating the Germans on the bloody repulse of the Canadians at Dieppe. There was no immediate re ply. Daladier agreed during cross examination with testimony yes terday of former Premier Paul Reynaud that "certain conces sions in Africa" to Mussolini were considered in 1940 in an effort to keep Italy at peace. "The true cause of our de feat," Daladier said, "resulted from demoralization of the army and the old conception of the inviolability of the Ardennes" the mountainous gap of Bel gium and northeast France through which the - Germans burst French lines in 1940 and pushed back the Americans last December. He said the defeat also was due to military "incapacity" and activities of the fifth column. m 1:30 - 6:45 w IT Gen V Corloi Pine...

Via Industrial Mishaps Slash Washington Lumber Output OLYMPIA, July 25 (JP) Ac cidents are doing more to reduce lumber production in Washing ton than any other factor within , the control of management and , labor, Director Earl N. Ander son of the state department of labor and industries reported to day. Revealing some of the stag gering costs of industrial mis haps, Anderson said his depart ment has determined there is an immediate necessity for organiz ing a "sound and complete" safety program in the lumber industry, the most hazardous in dustry in the state. Lumbering's various opera tions lost more than 12 million man hours of working time in 1944 through accidents. Ander son said this cost the workers $16,960,000 in lost earnings and necessitated condensation awards of $2,810,000. - j How lost time gouged at war production is stressed in statis tics prepared by the depart ment's safety division, super vised by Dan Adair. The logging industry lost 157, 403 working days because of ac cidents in 1943. This, said An derson, was the equivalent, of 525 workers who could have been employed for the full year. Such a working force could have established 10 logging "sides" ' including enough persons to manage and maintain the camps, and have produced 360 million feet of lumber during the year. wnne tne logging industry in our state is engaged in its greatest production drive, these records reveal its strength is be ing sapped by accidents," Ander son said.

Another 7500 were idle at the Chevrolet division of Gener al Motors in Cincinnati in a dis pute over transfer of . a plant manager. Union officials said his return would end the walk out. In St. Louis a majority of 1900 striking AFL butchers in five packing plants voted to return immediately pending settlement of their demands for concessions equalling those granted by the WLB to workers in the big five packing plants. The demands included furnish ing of work clothing, time allow ance for sharpening tools and other awards described as "fringe" Increases.

Shanghai Bombings General MacArlhur mean while reported more than 350 far cast air force bombers and fighters grounded four days by typhoons slushed anew at Shanghai Sunday, sinking or damaging 13 warships and freighters, blasting three big airfields, and destroying or dam aging 45 enemy planes.. MacArthur's communique list ed a destroyer, a 3000-ton freighter-transport and a small er cargo vessel sunk, and a 10,000-ton freighter-transport, a destroyer escort, two sub chasers and six small freighters prob ably sunk. There was no air interception. Land-based navy planes added 10 more enemy vessels to the carrier planes' toll of 17 sunk or damaged in Tuesday's sweeps over the Inland sea. Presses Forward Admiral Nimltz' 30-word com munique today announcing re sumption of tho carrier attacks made it clear that Halsey is pressing In for the kill. "Com batant ships," it said, were the targets for the second succes sive day of sweeps over the great Kure naval base and Kobe, 150 miles east. Both are on the Inland sea. "What's left of the Japanese navy is helpless," snorted Ad miral Halsey in his flagship broadcast, "but just for good luck we will hunt them out of their holes." First fragmentary reports of Halscy's carrier strikes yester day showed American pilots heavily damaged the battleships Ise and Hyuga, left the heavy cruiser Tone and light cruiser Oyodo in flames, and damaged the heavy cruiser Aoba and a large aircraft carrier. British airmen damaged a Kobe type escort carrier. The two old Ise class battle ships, recently converted into semi-carriers by the addition of small flight decks astern, are 32,000-ton ships, heavily armed.
