Meanwhile, the military was moving in and out of plants where war production was endangered by labor and management disputes over War Labor Board decisions.

The army took over the S. A. Woods Machine Company, South Boston, and the machines kept humming. The management there had defied a W.L.B. order requiring inclusion of maintenance of membership and arbitration clauses in a contract with C.I.O.

Quickly Fill (Continued from Page One) The dusky little fellow who when his wireless set was shot to pieces busied himself saving lives was Pte Jean Napoleon Maurice, 21 -year-old Montrealer whose father went to Canada from Marseille. Among the wounded Maurice helped to get aboard boats at re-embarkation were two members of the Royal Hamilton Light Infantry and two Essex Scottish. He didn't know their names. The dark youngster didn't speak of these deeds himself Others who watched him in admiration told the story Fusiliers Were Good.

All Maurice had to say was this: "The Fusiliers were good. What they went through is unbelievable. They were real good. I saw a corporal trying to set up his mortar directly under Jerry's machine-guns. He didn't have a chance.

He got it fast, but even as he went to his knees he kept trying to get that mortar place and open up On the Cliffs Where the Germans Were established. He jUSt Wasn't able." Great Russian (Continued from Page One) Can Russia Hold? The answer is that everything depends on whether they can hold Stalingrad and Voronezh. It is exactly a year today since the Germans opened their great assault on Leningrad. So certain were they of taking the city that they printed invitations to a victory banquet in the leading hotel. Well, Leningrad still stands and the Nazis are no nearer their victory banquet than they were August 22nd a year ago.

Leningrad maintained an epic defence even while the fighting front was only a street car ride distant from the suburbs. Its inhabitants brought in food for themselves over ice-covered Lake Ladoga, froze in unheated rooms, suffered endless bombardment and knew all that London knew when the bombs poured down from the skies. But Leningrad carries on today and life is not far from normal. Stalingrad and Voronezh may be equally stubborn. Strength Waning.

Nevertheless, the strength of the Soviet Union today is not what it was a year ago nor are its preparations for a winter campaign as comprehensive. The odds are going against the only army in the world that could have Tough Pte.

They were the first Canadians, ashore and scrambled over a 10-foot seawall and Immediately occupied a section of the town. Detachments went through buildings cleaning out Germans. One company pushed southwest of Pourville and smashed Nazi motor transport sheds and gun positions and later this same com- pany with a platoon and a half of Camerons repelled attacks by a whole German battalion that came up from the south. This action lasted two hours. Headquarters was established in the town which was constantly under fire from German mortars and artillery one mile to the southeast.

Nazi machine-guns on the headlands kept firing down the main street. Knocked Out rillbox A company attacked down the road leading inland in a southeasterly direction and was stopped by fire from a pillbox a few hundred yards outside the town. A platoon took cover behind the road block 20 yards from the pillbox from which the Germans were firing. Pte. Charlie Sawden of Consul, looked over the situation and told Cpl.

Charlie Devlin of Lucky Lake, "If somebody will hold my rifle I'll knock hell out of those guys." He slipped forward from cover of the road block with Nazis pegging shots at him all the time, made the pillbox and chucked a hand grenade through one of the firing slits. "We didn't stop to see how many Charlie killed in there but firing certainly stopped," Devlin said. Later, as Devlin led a section in an attacK on some mland guns i Sawden had his leg broken by a i Nazi bullet. we carried mm down into a hollow and used our bayonets as splints to fix up his leg," said Devlin. "Then we went on to make another attack.

Charlie was picked up on the way back. He's in hospital in England now and doing okay." In mid-morning a machine-gun post on a cliff top caused the Westerners some trouble and Col. Merritt attacked it with a sergeant and two men. Used Grenades. "We crawled up on the cliff behind the colonel and me and the other guy covered the pillbox with a Bren gun." said Pte.

Les Thrussell of Weyburn. "The colonel and the sergeant went forward and wrecked the pillbox with grenades." Lieut. Buchanan said that when the colonel came back to the unit's headquarters he told him with a boyish grin. "I just bombed out a pillbox. Try it some time before breakfast.

I recommend it." The South Saskatchewans had a tragic experience with Nazi treachery. A detachment surrounded a machine-gun post and the Germans waved a white flag. The Canadians advanced to take some prisoners and the Nazis opened fire immediately, killing all of them. "We now know the truth of the statement there is only one good German and that's a dead one," said Lieut. Buchanan.

Units of the South Saskatchewans had a rocky time on their withdrawal when the Nazis closed in and machine-gunned them from high points. The tide was running and the boats couldn't get in closer than 150 yards, forcing the Canadians to walk or swim out to them. The heroes in the eyes of the men participating in the assault were stretcher bearers. "They did i wonderful work looking after the wounded and getting them to the boats," said Lieut. Dickin.

"They carried men thrnmrh wntpr nr. tn their necks time and again and came back for more." The Germans captured were all eastern-front veterans and Dickin said they were "young men grown old "They were cynical, tired and fed up with war," he added.

The guns were drawn by horses and the Camerons "beat up" the battery. Major A. T.

Law of Winnipeg was acting commanding officer, ashore and he returned to England. Another major who went through the battle and returned was Norman Ross, another Win-nipeggef. Heroic Private. There were scores of individual acts of heroism but one man all the Camerons are talking about is Pte. Alex Huppe of Winnipeg.

He went with the forces pushing inland and re-embarked safely after doing a superb sniping job with his rifle all the way. An officer said "Huppe was like a kid on the midway shooting up targets with a .22." He hid behind trees behind anything that would conceal him and picked! off the helmeted grey forms trying to halt the advancing Canadians. He prowled around as stealthily as an Indian and accounted for a number of German infantrymen. "With Pleasure" Huppe himself dismissed his action with a shrug of the shoulders. "All the Germans we could see we bumped off with pleasure," he said.

The Camerons lavished their praise, too, on the regimental padre, Capt. J. P. Brown of Winnipeg and Dauphin, who went ashore as a medical sergeant in a regimental aid post. In the heat of action he worked on the wounded and carried stretchers for hours on end through German machine-gun fire.

Capt. Ben Brackman of Regina, a medical officer, also was highly praised for his excellent work on the injured. Cpl. Freddy Sutherland, captain of the Camerons hockey team which won the Canadian army championship last winter, summed up the bravery of his mates with the assertion "I never saw anyone back down anywhere." Just Plowed Ahead. The Camerons didn't seem to have any nerves at all.

They just kept plowing ahead and plowing ahead. At one point 30 men under Capt. E. P. Thompson of Winnipeg were cut off by machine-gun fire three miles from the coast and without faltering battled their way out of the trap and ran the gauntlet of German fire back to the coast.

The heroism of the Camerons was so outstanding that Lieut. E. D. McManus of Winnipeg, who was with the forces going up the left bank of the river, said "you can hardly pick out any individual who did any better than any other." "Every man was a superb soldier all the way. There was never the slightest indication of fear." The First Kill.

The first man of the Camerons to kill a German was Pte. A. E. Buchanan of Winnipeg, who saw a Nazi in an orchard by the beach and brought him down in short order. C.S.M.

Charlie McLellan of Winnipeg was with a company that probably saw more action than any other. A veteran of the last war, when he served in the Seaforths and -Argylls of the British army, he spoke words of encouragement to his men and was an outstanding example of coolness under fire, especially on the beach where the going was particularly tough. John O'Reilly KEMPTVILLE, Aug. 22. (Special) Many friends and relatives attended the funeral on Friday morning of John O'Reilly which was held from his late residence in Oxford township to Holy Cross Catholic church where Rev.

Father J. H. McDonald, parish priest, conducted the service. Mr. O'Reilly was a farmer of Oxford township where he was born 72 years ago, a son of the late Thomas O'Reilly and his wife, Bridget Lynch.

He was a member of Holy Cross church. He passed away on Tuesday at his home. Surviving besides his widow are three daughters, Margaret, Edna and Mamie, at home; also five sons, Norbert and Joe in the air force, England; Thomas, St. Catharines, and Edward and William, at home.

TELEPHONE 2-5701 i withstood the full fighting strength of Germany for 14 months. The Germans now have superiority in tanks, aircraft and parachute troops. They outnumber the Red forces cut off in the Caucasus. And they are still capable of yet one more big-scale offensive. On the other hand, the Allies, compared with Russia's needs, are sending her inadequate numbers of bombers.

It is little wonder, therefore though London censorship tries to mitigate the fact the Russians are hoping and wondering when help from the Allies is coming on a scale commensurate with what they have lost and suffered in the common cause. Jeers From Nazis. The Nazi poison propaganda jeers, "Where are the Tommies?" The Russians have no reply. The Dieppe raid was heartening but more is wanted. Premier Churchill, when he arrived in Moscow gave the for victory sign as he drove away from the airdrome.

But the Russians who saw him did not know its meaning. So in their need they interpreted it. instead, as one finger for the Eastern front and the other for the Western. One bright spot in the sombre Russian picture is that Nazi spokesmen in Berlin are now admitting that the German army cannot hopo to occupy the whole of Russia but must fix a frontier line beyond which they will not advance for the winter. Then skilled Nazi workers taken out of the factories for the present campaign will be returned for a winter of work so as to pile up more munitions for next year's fighting.

Should the Russians, however, be able to fight all through the rext winter as they fought last winter, then the Axis plans will be once more upset. And, of course, if a second front should be started in Western Europe, Hitler's hopes of a spring offensive next year would go dwindling. Allied Trades Accept Fledge To Aid Victory The Allied Trades and Labor Association of Ottawa, meeting last night, accepted this pledge as an aid to the winning of the war and for equal sacrifices: 1.
