THE SANDUSKY REGISTER-STAR- SEPT. 1941 Fleet Of Hundreds Of Planes Bomb German Capital Over Sunday (Continued From Page One.) ijeningrad continued to be the caution, it was emphasized, since there had been evidence that a certain number of Nazi agents were active in the area and seeking to arrange for an outbreak in the Volga at the time it would be of greatest aid to the German army advance from the west. In France, representatives of the Vichy government charged that Communist agitators still were instigating disorders, sabotage and terrorism against the German occupation forces despite the drastic measures taken against them by the French and German military authorities. In the Far East, there was another outbreak against America and Britain in the Tokyo press coincident with the reported arrival at Vladivostok of the third American oil tanker carrying supplies to the Red army. center of fiercest action on the eastern front but the Russians also- were charging forward on north central front, ency hitting toward the Estonian uoruer, in an effort to relieve the pressure on the former Czarist capital.

Over the weekend, the Germans rushed aerial reinforcements into the Leningrad battle and pounded day and night at the Red army defense lines around the city in what London experts said was an attempt to force their way through before winter slows down fighting in the north. The Germans apparently were prepared to sacrifice any number of men and machines to break through the Russian "wall of steel" around Leningrad, according to the British, and it was admitted that such an achievement would be a hard blow to the Russians generally. A Russian broadcast described Leningrad's defenses as impenetrable and said that local counter-attacks both south of the city and on the northern defenses facing the Finns had resulted in stopping the enemy advance and, at some points, throwing the Germans back sharply. The Russian counter-attacks were largely intended to keep open the lines of communication from Leningrad to the southeast and prevent the Germans from completing encirclement of the city of 3,000,000. Farther south, however, the Russian counter attacks being pressed by the central sector armies were intended to endanger tfie German north flank and thus relieve the pressure of the attack on Leningrad.

village and six strongly defended heights were taken by the Russians in one advance, according to Soviet dispatcties. The Russian defenses before Kiev and Odessa also continued unimpaired, Moscow reported, with the Germans turned back in repeated attempts to advanae on both cities. The Soviet government also disclosed that drastic measures were being taken to prevent the large German-origin population of the Volga area from adopting fifth columnist tactics to aid the Nazi invasion. About 400,000 persons, all described as descendants of German settlers in the t'-'ie of Catherine the Great, ordered to moved to eastward in Siberia. The action was taken as a pre- WAR Interpretation BY LOUIS F.

KEEMLE 0t The United Press War Desk, Aside from Russia and the air Ijrar in the west, Hitler is beginning to fight on a third front, "the growing underground terrorism in France reflects a similar movement which exists to a greater or lesser extent in nearly all the occupied countries. It has been in progress for jjionths, but latest reports indicate that it is spreading as win- tSSf approaches and hunger and cold add to the discontent and tiftterness against the conquerors. Holland, Belgium and the'- Balkans have been partial- Iffiy affected. The first executions in Norway occurred in Mid- JJUgust when three persons faced srNazi firing squad for sabotage. Cast week, Vidkun Quisling, Norwegian Nazi leader, announced that terror would be met with terror and there would be more trials and executions.

The food situation in Norway, because of the requisitions by the Germans was described as serious. Earlier in the year, a collective fine of 500,000 Norwegian kroner was levied on three Norwegian counties for acts of sabotage. 500 bu. Peaches Cheap Wyandot Farm, Cleve. Rd.

Germans Take More Hostages In Paris Area WITH HER SON VICHY, unoccupied than 100 jews and two prominent French lawyers, one of them a minister of justice in the old republic, were reported today to have been seized as hostages by German occupation authorities in Paris because of attacks on members of the German army. It was in these new mass arrests that the Germans took the two once-prominent lawyers, former justice minister Pierre Masse, who is a Jew, and Theodore Valensi, a former deputy, who is a native of Corsica. Vichy no longed tried to hide the gravity of the strife in the occupied zone or the fact that reprisals are only making things worse. "We can expect to see street incidents multiply," the official government news agency told its papers. The agency reproduced an extract from the Paris "Cri du Peu- ple," comparing the situation in Paris with open warfare.

Authorized Vichy sources charged that the outbreaks, particularly shootings in Paris, were part of a Communist plot aimed at forcing Germany to withdraw troops from the eastern front. They specified that the arrests followed a series of demonstrations August 15 and 16 in Jewish neighborhoods in. the 15th and 20th arrondissments. It was announced, coincidentally, that three hostages shot by the Germans at dawn last Saturday in retaliation for an attack on a German sergeant were communists. Their names have not been disclosed.

They were imprisoned last August 13 after anti-German demonstrations in the Porte St. Denis quarter of Paris and were among about 60 other persons charged with being Communists, according to this information. Masse and Valensi had been regarded as moderate in their political tendencies and Masse who was minister of justice in the Poincare cabinet ni 1922, was a member of the democratic alliance formerly headed by Pierre- Etienne Flandin. Police, it was announced also, are searching for an accomplice of Paul Colette who they believed helped him obtain the weapon with which he shot the collaborationist leader Pierre Laval and Marcel Deat. At Versailles, where Laval and Deat are convalescing in a hospital, four male nurses in a nearby sanitarium have been arrested as suspected communists.

Another Frenchman was disclosed to have been shot Sept. 1 by order of a German court martial on grounds that he helped French war prisoners escape into A photo made.

BOMBSIGHT NEW YORK, (UP) United States Attorney Harold M. Kennedy charged today at the trill of 16 persons accused as spies that one of them had given Germany details of the famed Norden bomb-sight. The trial was resumed in Brooklyn federal court after a week-long recess. The defendants, with 17 others who have pleaded guilty were charged with conspiracy to provide Germany with United States defense secrets. Kennedy gave a long, dramatic account of how the defendants allegedly gathered important military information and turned it over to German authorities.

He said that one of the defendants, whom he did not name, had obtained specifications of the Norden bomb-sight, considered the most accurate in the world, and revealed the information to authorities in Germany in 1938. Kennedy asserted that one of the defendants, Frederick J. Duquesne, had been a "spy for many years." He charged that Duquesne wrote the chemical warfare section of the War Department asking for information as to how the United. States would juse various chemicals in event of war. Kennedy said that Duquesne had said in his letter that the information would be "in good hands," even though at the time he was in the pay of the Germans.

Several motions for dismissal on the grounds of prejudice were denied and the trial continued after Kennedy.had announced that he expected to present more than 100 witnesses for the government. Besides Duquesne, those on trial are Conrad Dold, Josef A. Klein, Hartwig R. Kleiss, Carl A. Reuper, Franz J.

In Manhattan, a federal grand jury heard more evidence against Karl Frederick Ludwig, who is in Spokane, awaiting removal to New York for trial on similar charges. Included among the witnesses was Lucy Boehmler, attractive 18-year-old blonde, who pleaded guilty to charges of serving as a spy and sending military information to the Nazis. She will be sentenced on Sept.

100 Americans May Soon Be Able To Sail From Japan, Report WASHINGTON, About 100 Americans who desire to leave Japan but who have been prevented from doing so may soon be permitted to return to the United States. Negotiations to ward that end were in progress here today. The Japanese embassy has pro posed to the state department that the Americans be brought to the United States by a Japan ese passenger liner which on its return voyage would carry the several hundred Japanese now in California awaiting transportation home. There were indications that the negotiations would be successful. Suspension of steamer contact between the United States and Japan stranded a number of Americans who had been planning to leave Japan.

A few have been able to make the trip from Japan to Shanghai and connect there with an American bound ship. But travel between Japan and China is congested even in ordinary times and in the present tense situation it has been virtually impossible for any except Japanese to obtain passage. 200 Workmen Are Jeered By CIO's Pickets LORAIN, Boos and jeers of 550 striking members of the United Marine and Shipbuilding Union (CIO) greeted approximately 200 American Federation of Labor workmen who entered the American Shipbuilding Co. yards today. Strikers massed outside the plant, which was picketed by 10 men at the one entrance to the company yards.

Some scuffling was reported but there were no serious disturbances. Police Chief Theodore Walker said "everyone who wanted in, got in." No effort was made to enforce an injunction issued in Lorain- co common pleas court, at Elyria Saturday. The order limited the number of active pickets to six The strike was called Thursday by the CIO union to protest a National Labor Relations board ruling that gave the AFL bargaining rights in the six company shipyards. The CIO contends that it has a majority of the workers at Lorain. The company has $10,000,000 warth of defense contracts and an equal amount in private orders.

BLACK WASHINGTON (UP) Mrs.

Sara Delano Roosevelt exerted a tremendous influence over her only son, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, but at three critical times in his life her wishes did not prevail. From the time the President was 18 years old, his mother filled the double role of father and mother. His father, James Roosevelt, died in 1900. Mrs. Roosevelt supervised her son's education and saw to it that he traveled extensively.

She sent him to Groton and Harvard and later saw his son, except Elliot, do the same. The first time that the mother's wishes did not determine young Roosevelt's decision was when lie was about to complete his work at Harvard, in 1903. when the President was 21, he asked his shy fifth cousin. Eleanor Roosevelt, then an orphan of 20, to marry him. She agreed after consultations with her relatives.

But Mrs. Roosevelt thought they were too young to marry and took her son out of Harvard to tour the West Indies with his roommate, Lathrop Brown. But when young Roosevelt returned he still was in love with Eleanor and after graduating from Harvard in 1904 set the date for the wedding to be March 17, 1905. The next major decision on which the mother's wishes were overruled came in 1922 when Mr. Roosevelt was recuperating fiom infantile paralysis.

The mother wanted her son to retire to her Hyde Park estate. She felt that any participation in public life, even consultations with former associates, would endanger his life. But Louis Mcllenry Howe, the President's late secretary, and other political friends believed he had a political future. His doctors told his wife, Eleanor, that his recovery would be helped rather than hindered by continuing his woi'k. Eleanor supported his friends and again Sara Roosevelt failed to determine her son's future.

She then watched Franklin become governor of New York state and twice elected president of the United States. Shortly after the second inauguration, Mrs. Roosevelt, in an interview with the United Press in Paris, said she thought her son would not run for a third term. She emphasized that she was giving only her personal opinion, but later said she would like to have him at home. She added that she would not oppose a third term "if he could do good being President again." It was obvious that she wanted her famous son to come back to the Hudson valley estate, which he loved so much, during her last years.

But when that hope vanished last January she smiled as any mother would have done who was watching an unprecedented honor bestowed Upon her son the first President to take the Presidential oath a third time.
