President Truman nnd Premier Stalin nnd would be issued within g "very few days" was made by Mr. Churchill to the House oi Commons. whose anger flamed as a result of direct word from Gen. Eisenhower, Allied Supreme Commander, that atroci- ties just discovered “far surpass" anything seen before.

PARIS, April 19—(AP)—United States forces today

captured the inner German fo encircled Nazidom’s shrine o

in American hands, and pushed 25 miles south of there to

within 70 miles of Munich.

ing toward Munich, captured

Nuernberg's twin city of Fuerth, with a population of 85,- 000.

Resounding successes were recorded on the opposite end of the front. where British forces, driving up i0 the

Elbe River 20 miles southens

t of Hamburg, drenched with

artillery fire the last bridge across the Elbe at Lauenburg, ihus sealing off from the rest of the Reich the defenders of the ports of Bremen, Emden and Wiihelmshaven.

Word virus passed down through American troops that a junction was imminent with the Russians now no more than 55 miles to the east of the U. S. 3rd Army.

Posters which illustrated the silhouettes of Russian tanks said they resembled some of those of the Germans

and that Americans should shoot.

The United States ist and 9th Armies inflicted the worst de- feat of Hitler's armies since Stalingrad with the final smash- ing of the Ruhr pocket, capturing 316.930 prisoners in that cam- paign, including at least 11 gen- erals.

The British 2nd Army in a 20- miie gain drove up to within five miles of Harburg and brought that cross-Elbe suburb of Germany's second city of Hamburg within artillery range. -

The British forces were on the Elbe at numerous points 20 miles southeast of Hamburg and rush- lng up tanks and troops.

The Germans predicted that the Allies would land somewhere along the Elbe‘s mouth from the sea and attempt to take Hamburg and be- sieged Bremen from the rear.
