and one enemy plane was forced
down by our fighters upon *an air
drome near Minsk.
"During the 22nd and the 23rd of
June, Soviet troops took prisoners
numbering about 5.000 German offi
cers and men According to more pre
cise, data. during the 22nd of June,
altogether about 70 enemy planes
were brought down instead of the
65 mentioned in the communique of
the high command of the Red Army
for the 22nd of June."
Moscow. June 23,?Wm-kors and
peasants all over Russia were report
ed today to be pledging themselves
to multiply their output, shoulder
arms and defend the country to the
last man against the Germans, whom
the high command said had been
beaten back with heavy losses al
most everywhere
"Let the Nazi bandits know that
the Soviet people never will allow a
dirty Fascist heel to trample the sa
cred Russian soil." was a slogan typi
cal of the many banle cries spiiug
ingjjp in mass meetings everywhere
An official manifesto said 200.000,
000 p?-ople of the Soviet Union, "aris
ing in an invincible force" were ral
lying to strike a crushing blow for
the Fatherland
Late reports lronPthe Kusso-tier
man front declare that the Russians
are fighting bitterly, that branches
of the* Russian forces had launched
blitzkriegs of their own, and that
Germany was now tasting some of
the medicine it has been pouring out
for others Germany claims that she
continues to advance, that Russian
supply lines*had been bombed and
badly damaged
A closer collaboration in prose
cuting the war against Germany is
being rapidly advanced by the Brit
ish and Russia. A special group is
traveling to Russia from England
now to formulate plans.
Turkey and Finland today assured
Britain of their neutrality.
Japan has delayed, temporarily at
least, a decision on its future poli
cies pending the outcome of the Rus
so-German war.
The drive in Syria is being speed
ed up, and little is being heard from
the battle of the Atlantic as Russia
claims the spotlight.
North Carolina's Bob Reynolds,
thp gamp guy whn there
would be no war in Europe just a
few days before it broke out, proud
ly pointed* out that tie was certain
Germany will defeat Russia within
a month.
Next Four Months
'Hay-making Time'
???
During the next four months the
major portion of the hay crop in
North Carolina will be harvested
The production of hay has increased
remarkably in recent years. During
the period from 1929 through 1938,
North Carolina produced an aver
age of 720.000 tons of hay annually.
Last year more than a million tons
of hay were harvested.
John A. Arey, extension dairy
specialist of N. C State College, says
-a large part of the hay produced in
North Carolina is medium to low in
feed value.
"Good quality hay," Arey declar
