on powerfully toward Florence also to Ancona and Leghorn,
the latter place looking like falling soon. Polish and Italian
troops are within 2 to 3 miles from Ancona. Our spearheads
have advanced 13 miles beyond Arezzo West on the road to Florence.
The Russians made fine progress between Grodno and
Kaunas although they have to meet with stiffer resistance.
The Germans still report fighting in the South. In Central
Burma the Japanese retreating from Ukhrul are suffering
on account of hunger and rain. More progress is being
made south of Imphal. In the South West Pacific the
Japanese are still trying to get out of the trap near Wewak.
The Japanese people were today told of the loss of Saipan.
33 more British prisoners of war were shot by the
Germans in addition to the 50 airmen. A strongest
protest will be made through the protective power.
A number of young men will be transferred to the
army of other services as we have sufficient aircrew
notwithstanding our air force is still expanding.
Many airmen have already been transferred. A High
Court judgement was given today in the case of the
Bethnal Green shelter disaster. The condition of the
steps was said to be dangerous. The Education Bill got its
3rd reading in the Lords. The Commons were asked a take of
credit for £ 1000.000.000.-.-. Unconditional surrender means
the victors have a free hand. There will be not secret session to
discuss flying bombs. More slaters and tilers are needed in
London to repair damage.
