CIGHT THE MICHIGAN DAILY
American Soldiers Stationed in Action Zones in Southwest Pacific Region
INSIDE FACTS ON 'NEW ORDER'
Polish Veteran to Speak Friday
Joseph P. Junosza, director of the
Polish Information Center of the
Middle West, will give a University
lecture at 2 p. m. Friday in the Michi-
gan. Union Ballroom.
Recently arrived in the United
States from Poland and England, Ju-
nosza brings to American audiences
a vivid picture of the problems facing
the United Nations in their war
against Axis tyranny and aggression.
A veteran of the Polish-Bolshevik
War of 1918-20, he again saw service
in the volunteer brigade of Warsaw in
September, 1939. When the Russians
marched into Poland, Junosza re-
turned to bombed and flaming War-
saw where he worked as a laborer in
a railroad shop.
During his 13-month stay in War-
saw under German occupation, he
had an opportunity to see the German
"New Order" and its methods first
hand. After witnessing the mass exe-
cutions and inhuman persecutions, he
became a member of the underground
movement and participated actively
in anti-Hitler actions.

New Nazi Gains
along Caucasus
Front Reported
Reds Take Initiative'
in Stalingrad Sector
MOSCOW, Nov. 1. (Sunday)-(P)-
The Germans made new gains yester-
day in their offensive across the Nal-
chik Plains at the foot of the Cauca-
sus Mountains, the Soviet midnight
communique said today, but the Red
Army seized the initiative inside Sta-
lingrad and won new successes north-
west of the Volga city and on the
Black Sea front.,.
The fact that the Russians had
gone over to the offeusive in Stalin-
grad was indicated by a statement in
the communique that they had fought
"battles to improve their ,positions"
after beating off a number of German
attacks.
The midnight communique said
that about a battalion of German in-
fantry had been wiped out in Stalin-
grad and that ten tanks and five
blockhouses had been destroyed.
Northwest of Stalingrad the Russians
were said to have strengthened their
positions and occupied a German
blockhouse after killing about two
platoons of infantry.
On the Black front, northeast of
Tuapse, the Russians "gained some
ground," the communique said, add-
ing that at one point Soviet units had
crossed a stream "and hurled the
Germans out of their positions."
The main battleground, however,
appeared to be shifting to the Nalchik
Plateau, deep in the Caucasus, where
the Germans were trying desperately
to reach the approaches to the Geor-
gian military highway leading across
the Caucasus Mountains.
The communique said the Germans
attacked at one point with large in-
fantry forces, supported by forty
tanks and aircraft. The Russians re-
pulsed a number of attacks here, kill-
ing about 600 enemy men, but late in
the day the Germans "broke into the
outskirts of a populated place."
In the Nalchik sector where the
enemy had shifted planes and men
from the Siege of Stalingrad, the out-
numbered Russians said their lines
held despite repeated attacks.

tial presentation, "Sundown," which

chological reaction to its influence.
Youth's relation to the present war is
described, and its subsequent effect
toward the improvement is portrayed.

and John Babington as Brad Sullins
(alias Dan Ramer), in their unselfish
devotion to achieve an idealistic soci-
ety, succeed in destroying the false
notions of Rex Hold, played by Philip
Swander. The latter is the .insecure
son of a capitalistic father, portrayed
by Richard Stewart.
The international intrigue is pro-
vided by the charactdrs of August
Kraft played by Fred Hoffman and
Rosa Klein, his beautiful cohort, in-
terpreted by Pat Meikle.
Mrs. Holt, gentle dowager-mother
of Rex is played by Gertrude Slack,
and Barbara White is seen as the
sympathetic and loyal childhood
sweetheart, Ann Randall. John Rodg-
ers, portrayed by Hal Cooper, is the
business associate, mediator and
friend of Mr. Holt.

ODT Warns
DETROIT, Oct. 31.- (P)-- Michi-
gan faces partial paralysis of its com-
mercial motor transport system Nov.
15, an Office of Defense Transporta-
tion official warned tonight, unless
operators take immediate steps . to
obtain certificates of war necessity
for their vehicles.
Leslie Patterson, district ODT man-
ager, said that "after Nov. 15 no com-
mercial motor vehicle in the nation
may lawfully be operated without a
valid certificate of war necessity,"
adding that the number of Michigan
applications to the central ODT mail-
ing office so far is "dangerously
small."
"Without this certificate," Patter-
son said, "it will be impossible to ob-
tain gasoline, tires or parts for any
such vehicle, and from the looks of
reports today on Michigan, it appears
the state's commercial motor trans-
port is due for near breakdown unless
operators wake up at once to this
I fact."

United States as compared with $3,000,000,000 for Education must
be reversed. IT CAN BE DONE!

be maintained.
In cancellation of all Poll-tax Laws, in the proper care for
the aged, and a better, standard of living for all.
That social security and unemployment insurance must apply
