Adams, Prop. i TRUMAN TALKS ABOUT RUSSIA ^Continued from Page One) •» 1 Foreign Commissar Wyacheslav Molotov, and the impasse over ^ Russian demands for representa tion of the Moscow-sponsored War saw provisional government of Po- < land at the San Francisco United ’ Nations conference. The pressure of international af- 1 fairs, increasing in urgency with the approach of the San Francisco ' conference next week, was reflect ed in a White House visit by Sen- 1 a tor Connahy (D-Tex). It was Con nally’s last conference with the President Defore his start to the ] West Coast tonight as a member of the American delegation. The President’s schedule for the ; day, kept up the high-speed pace he has mvntained since he took of fice a week ago last night. He worked in a brief news con- ] ference to announce the appoint ment of a new press secretary— Charles G Ross, 59, Washington correspondent for the St. Louis PosMMspaich—and to sdotch re ports that Senate Secretary Leslie . Biffle would be moved to the White House staff. He said Biffle would : be of much more use to him in his present position, and he didn't want to ’“ripple the Senate. He au- ; thorized direct quotation on what he Think-s of the Sente secretary: “They don’t make them any bet ter Than J.cs Biffle.” There -lad been widespread re ports that Biffle, an old friend of the President, would become an administrative assistant. Ross, on leave from his news paper, will take over May 15. J. Leonard Reinsch, who has been serving as press secretary since Mr. Truman took office, has been called back to his job directing radio operations of former Gov. James M Cox of Ohio. Another item worked into the al ready-crowded Presidential sched ule was a discussion of Masonic ac tivities with Carl H. Claudy, execu tive secretary, and John D. Cun ningham, director of welfare, . of the Masonic Service Association of the United States. The President is a Shriner and a past grand master of the Grand Lodge of Missouri. He saw the three survivors of the six Marines who hoisted the American flag on Mount Suribachi, Iwo Jima, and accepted from them the first copy off the press of the Seventh War Loan poster made from AP Photographer Joe Ros enthal’s famous photo of the event. The new chief executive kept to his 8:30 a.m. starting schedule, walking across the street from the Blair House as he did yesterday. Any time after today, however, he can be closer at hand if he wants to. The Roosevelt family ar ranged to move out during the day, though Anna Roosevelt Boettiger, the late President’s daughter, still will have some packing there to do. Mrs. Boettiger has been delayed by the illness of her young son, under treatment at Walter Reed hospital. The day’s first caller was Col. James Roosevelt, USMC, eldest son of the late President. After that the pressure never let up. Secretary of the Interior Ickes, another Truman caller, told news men as he left the executive of fices: “You know I never talk about White House visits. You know I’m not going to change at my age.” REDS PREPARE FOR MEETING (Continued from Page One) nese might try a sneak attack on the city by air bombing or sub marine shelling. Presumably it has long since been considered and provided for by the Army and Navy. One fact of reassurance is that the Japanese never hit the city when it was weak and they were strong; now the situation is reversed Special barracks have been built near the civic center—con ference site—for the Army Trans portation Corps. Generals promis ed San Frranciscans that the Ar my would prevent any new load from being placed on their war burdened transportation system by the conference. The Army has advertised in the papers for 100 limousines. The season normally should pro duce perfect conference weather during the next 4 to 6 weeks. Army and Navy personnel have lost for the time their 'domination of this greatest Pacific port, and those who can be diverted go else where. Some who must come through here get stalled and are put to work on the conference. One naval officer with three years Pacific combat behind him was drafted as a greeter of conference arrivals. _, What?s the Score j By Chaplain Frank M. Thompson The great national game is in i he offing. Spring practice is about 1 >nded. Soon the swat of the ball ^ill be heard throughout the land. That introduces you to a criti ism handed me by a young man. Ie said that a certain preacher vas unaware of what was going >n, that he was all hazy as to the ] neaning of life. In other words, 1 le did not know the score. , Now I am pretty sure the preach >r was more familiar with life ! han the gangling youth. He knew 1 i good game, how it should be 1 )Iayed, also when one struck out. j \.nd so did the youth. He was rot ( gnorant of the rules that ought tc ;overn his conduct. Very few are vorried by a lack of knowledge ilong that line. Herein lies their ; rouble. It is what they already mow and fail to act upon. I suppose there are times when i Dorothy Dix is needed to ■ straighten out affairs. I wonder. [, like you, have given bales of idvice and I have yet to learn hat any of it was taken very ge ■iously. The only counsel most iolks want is that which confirms heir own wishes and desires. Per laps a lot depends on the way it s given. 1 recall, many years ago, a maiden consulted me about a man she thought of marrying. I realize row that I used very poor tech lique in dealing with her. I came right out and told her that in my judgment the man was on his way to the bad place (only I did no1 ise so mild a term) and he would very likely take her with him. “All right,’’ she said, “I’ll go with him.’ And she did—she married lim. * After all what difference does it make what the score is? “When the one great Scorer comes to write against your name, He writes not that you won or lost, but how you played the game.’’ -V Obituaries DR.

AMERICANS DRIVE INTO PO VALLEY "ifth Army Fight* Into outskirts of Casa lecchio ROME, April 20.—{IP)—American i'ifth Army troops broke out into he Po Valley northwest of Bolog ia late today after a spectacular leven-mile advance and fought in o the outskirts of Casalecchio, hree miles southwest of the big ndustrial city and communications : enter, A spearhead of one of the two livisions which burst out of the Vpennine mountains on the fifth Jay of the all-out Allied offensive n Italy cut the main Bologna dodena highway—No. 9—at a point shout nine miles notthwest * of Bologna. This was one of the main escape •outes for German forces which lave put up a tenacious defense setose Bologna for the past six nonths. with American tanKs ana tanK iestroyers streaming out onto the rolling Po plain tonight there was i surge of optimism among Allied :ommanders that the German arm ies in northern Italy soon might be lestroyed or driven beyond the /Ups. British Eighth Army troops, roll ing on with the momentum of their plunge through the Argenta gap, advanced another three miles near the Italian east coast and captured Portomaggiore, 12 miles southeast if the Po valley industrial center Df Farrar a. Other Eighth Army forces, driv ing directly up the Ravenna-Fer rara highway, were reported with in 10 miles of Ferrara. Capture of Ferrara, which is 25 miles north and slightly east of Bologna, would make the situation of German forces defending the latter city highly precarious. American troops fighting toward Bologna from the south battled in to the highway village of Pianoro, seven miles south south of the city. They were reported clearing out pockets of resistance in Pianoro tonight. High ground was won on both sides of the village. West of the Bologna-Pistoia high way, Doughboys captured Mt. Sanichele, about eight and a half miles southwest of Bologna, Mt. Mario, a 1,500-foot peak„ about a mile east of the Bologna highway and the Reno river, also was tak en. Other Fifth Army forces pushing up the west coast guard gained considerable ground on both sides of Highway 1 and were reported within eight miles of the naval base of La Spezia. Allied tactical warplanes con tinued their close support of ad vancing troops while heavy Fort resses and Liberators smashed at highway bridges over the Adice river, a possible defense line for the Nazis north of the Po river. Ferrara, now threatened by the British, is only a few thousand yards from the Po. -V City Briefs LIBERATED Pfc. Jesse Hobbs, previous ly reported missing in action, has been liberated from a German camp where he was held prisoner for over sixty days. This information has been received from Private Hobbs by his sister, Mrs. J. T. Stroud, of Market street road.

She was accused of taking an old Roman type broach valued at $150 from Phoebe Barnhill, of 1110 Wright street. Yanks Capture Nuernberg, Race TowardAlpine Fort (Continued from Page One) The British drawing up on the Ninth’s west flank, now held 15 miles of the Elbe’s west bank from positions 15 miles southeast of Hamburg. But for the Germans, the most imminent peril was in the south, where Allied western forces al ready were closer to Munich and the last German defense positions in the south than were the'Rus sians hammering up west of Vi enna. The French First Army, driv ing 23 miles south beyond last re, ported positions, reached Rottweil, 65 miles from the Austrian frontier and 120 miles from the northern border of Italy. Here they were closest to Lake Constance, near whose shores Nazi propaganda Minister Paid Joseph Goebbels re portedly has taken refuge.' They also were but 14 miles from the headwaters of the Danube. The U. S. Seventh Army smash ed all organized resistance in the Nazi shrine city of Nuernberg on Hitler’s 56th birthday. Without waiting for the city oi 131,000 to fall, armored columns oof the Seventh joined, the French in the encirclement of the big com mmications city of Stuttgart, RECORD CLOTHING SHIPMENT IS MADE A record shipment of 5,400 pounds of used clothing left Wil mington yesterday, indicating ttiat the United Nations Clothing Col lection in this area is getting into high gear, according -to Wilbur R Dosher, campaign chairman. The total amount shipped to date is now about 7,400 pounds. It is impossible to estimate the amount of clothing now on hand at the 130 odd receiving stations, Dosher said, but it is safe to say that it is many times the amount already shipped, judging from the reports received during the last 48 hours. '. The chairman also called atten tion again to the special matinee this morning at the Carolina thea ter. The admission price to all young people of the community will be a bundle of used clothing.
