Great
armadas of American and British planes numbering well over 3,500

bombed war industries in southern Germany, enemy installations
throughout
France and shipping in the great port of Brest, while scurrying the Germans in
their perilous retreat in Normandy.
They
struck from British and Italian bases.
Up
to 1,500 U. S. flying fortresses and Liberators from England attacked German
war industries at Mannheim and Ludwigshafen and German airfields, rail yards
and bridges in both Germany and France.

Moscow,
Aug. 14—AP—
The
zero hour for an all-out Soviet assault on East Prussia appeared to be
approaching rapidly today as Russian armies massed in a great threatening arc
before the borders of that German province.
Russian
units to the south were 15 to 17 miles from the East Prussia frontier, while to
the east other Soviet forces were seven to 10 miles away and to the north
from
30 to 35 miles.
Red
army forces apparently striving to rip Nazi defenses in East Prussia wide open
from the south menaced the enemy stronghold of Lomza, vital communications
center
that links embattled Warsaw with the Junker province.
