"To the unfortunate citizens of

the symbols of that new meaning
and hope is the flag of the United

"DeVil Dozers" on
French Front to
Build Airstrips
London .R) -- The "Dozer
Devils," an engineering unit
which is constructing airfields
across the French battle fronts,
was announced today as a branch
of the Ninth air force•
The new command, previously
kept secret, is composed of avia-
tion englneer trained and armed
for combat while constructing
airdromes on the continent.
Allied line had formed a junction
with the British operating east of
Bayeux.
The land forces again were be-
ing given full support of the Allied
air fleets as improved weather per-
mitred resumption of operations on
a massive scale. Thousands of
American and British planes
pounded German troop-concentra-
tions, artillery positions, air fields,
and rail centers immediately be-
hind the front.
A fleet of about 1,000 heavy
bombers and fighters swept into the
fray today after a fleet of nearly
750 RAF heavy bombers had defied
stormy weather during the night to
.nash German air fields behind
the front to hamper operations of
Luftwalte fighters.
Flew 3,500 Sorties
The weather still was not good,
but up to noon Allied planes had
flown nearly 3,500 sorties. The ur-
gency of their operations was
shown by reports of pilots return-
ing to their bases in England, who
said thaz the roads south and east
of the Allied beachheads were
clogged with miles-long German
supply columns moving up to the
front.
It was a race against time be-
tween the opposing forces to throw
in enough men and material to de-
cide the fate of Cherbourg in the
first week of the Allied invasion.
Luck was momentarily against the
Allies. A bad ttn'n in the capricious
Channel weather not only had vir-
tually grounded the Allied air
forces for 24 hours, but had inter-
tered with the flow of reinforce-
ments by sea and air,
At sea, surface and air forces
were combatting German subma-
rines which were beginning to
threaten Allied communications.
Eight British, Canadian, and Polish
destroyers intercepted four Ger-
'man destroyers off the Brittany
peninsula, sinking one, driving an-
other ashore in flames, and dam-
aging the other two. Another task
force routed an enemy flotilla off
,the Cherbourg peninsula.
Continue Italian Retreat
i In Italy the Germans continued
to retreat all the way across the
peninsula. Fifth army forces on the
west coast advanced 14 miles in a
single day, capturing Tuscanla, 50
miles northwest of Rome. East of
the Tiber the retreat of the Ger-
man 10th army was accelerated and
it was reported that the famous
Hermann Goering division had been
"reduced to a strength comparable
to that with which it straggled back
from Sicily."
On the Adriatic coast the Ger-
man withdrawal was in better
order, but British forces advanced
an average of 2. miles to take Or-
songa, one-time enemy anchor posi-
tion, and other towns.
A Finnish communique broadcast
by the Germans said the Russians
had egun a general offemive on
it he Karelian Isthmus, connecting
!southeast Finland with Russia
i north of Leningrad. Moscow did not
confirm, the announcement, merely

tivity near Iasi, Romania, and

that American medium bombers
had caught a Japanese naval task
force off Biak island in northern
New Guinea waters, sinking four
and damaging one.

House today to beat back a Senate-
approved cotton textile price
amendment to the price control ex-
tension bill which they contend
would be the entering wedge to
wrecking price control completely.
The Senate voted the bankhead
amendment, 39 to 35, prior to pass-
ing the OPA bill iate yesterday
despite the protest of administra-
tion leaders that it would add $350,-
000,000 a year to consumer cost of
cotton goods.
A similarly close fight was an-
ticipated in the House on an almost
identical amendment to the OPA
extension bill it is considering.
The cotton amendment in the
Senate-approved bill would require
the OPA to base its textile price
ceilings on three factors raw
cotton parity, an allowance for
manufacturing and marketing costs,
and "a reasonable profit."
Profit Guaranteed
Opponents contended it would
enrich textile manufacturers and
guarantee them a profit, but would
not necessarily force the mills to
pay full parity for raw cotton.
The House also had before it an
"oil parity" amendment similar to
one the Senate rejected in the
closing hour of debate. The Senate
proposal, offered by Sen. Elmer
Thomas, D., Okla., would have
forced OPA to raise the ceiling
price of "average" grade crude oil
from $1.17 a barrel to $1•65 a bar-
rel.
The Senate approved, however,
other amendments providing:
1. Increases, upon agreement be-
tween employer and employe, of
any wage or salary up to $37.50 a
week without submission to a fed-
eral agency for approvah
2. A requirement that the OPA
make allowances for hazards of
production and marketing in estab-
ltshing price ceilings on perishable
fruits and vegetables.
3. A ban against subsidies after
June 30, 1945, unless the money
required has been specifically ap-
proved for that purpose by Con-
gress.

Is Announced
By Communique
Allied Supreme Headquarters,
London -- .P Text of communi-
que No. 9:.
American troops have captured
Isigny. Despite unfavorable
weather conditions, disembarkation
of further men and material was
uninterrupted.
Withstanding a heavy enemy at-
tack delivered yesterday morning
by infantry and armor, British and
Canadian troops stood firm in the
Caen area. Our forces have made
contact with strong enemy forces
near Conde Sur Seulles. There is
continuous fighting on other sec-
tors.
Adverse weather during day-
light yesterday, confined our air
activity to limited patrols over the
immediate battle area and to costal
aircraft operations.
An enemy destroyer, driven
ashore off Batz in the Brest penin-
stria earlier in the day by naval
surface forces, was attacked and
left a smouldering hulk.
Weather Unfavorable
One enemy aircraft was shot
down 20 miles off Brest by anti-
E-boat patrols flown over western
channel waters.
Last night a strong force of heavy
bombers, eight of which are miss-
ing, attacked enemy airfields at
Flers, Rennes, Laval, and Lemans,
northwestern France, and 'the rail-
way center at Etampes. Light
bombers pounded enemy communi-
cations in the rear of the battle
zone. Weather conditions remained
unfavorable.
Night fighters and intruder air-
craft shot down four enemy planes
over the beach-head"
Coastal aircraft are co-operating
with naval surface forces in a vig-
orous offensive against U-boats
which are threatening to attack our
lines of communication to the
