"The figures I have seen on Ca- nadian production, future plans and manpower were very impressive." said the tall ambassador. He de- scribed Canada's part in the Brit- ish commonwealth air training plan as "a great job" and said that “the scale of your effort is becoming much more understood and sp- prechtcd in the United States." He had heard many favorable comments on the Canadian rec- ord. "That is a damn good fellow you have over there in England." he said of Lt-Gen. A.G.L. McNaugh- ton.

Then, driving home his point with a sharp, incisive manner of speaking. the President said that a year after the Civil War started the people of the north had not awakened to the fact that they had a war to win. In response to a question he said he had the ser- vice-extension vote in mind as well as other things in making his statement. Recallin that the President on past occas o i5 had sometimes jocu- larly suggested to his interviewers how the "lead" on the story of the moment should be written, a re- porter inquired:- "Mr. President, lf you were writ. ing the lead for this story what would you say?" "President quotes Lincoln and draws parallel," was Mr. Roose- velt's reply. "May we quote that?" Mr. Roosevelt nodded his ac. quiescence. Occasionally, for emphasis, he permits his- press conference statements to be quoted directly. The usual rule is that no attempt shall be made to make it appear that the story in the newspapers contains his exact language.

FALL BACK (Continued from Pills l) stubborn battles at Odessa. on the Black Sea, and in the Gomel and tlon leader. The motor transport ‘Kgnggsepp areas, game} is on the .- tcentral front 140 miles north of l Kiev. Kinglsepp, from which Rus- sian troops have withdrawn, is 75 miles southwest of Leningrad. A high command statement that fighting continued on the entire front indicated that wherever Rus- sian troops were falling back the retreat was orderly. The new German advance to- ward Novgorod appeared to be part of a two-pronged drive on Lenin- grad. The column at Klngisepp was nearest tve city but German troops ln the Novgorod area apparently out Leningrad off from Moscow in a typical German encirclement move. Reports late last night had pic- tured both the northern and south- ern wings of the Russian line as holding. The army publication Red Star said the Germans were running in- to shortages of artillery and tanks and were burying tanks more and more for use as artillery pillboxes. Originally, the journal said the Germans planned to use artillery only as a supporflng weapon with tanks. bombers and mortars lend- ing the attack but that now they were moving up one or two 150-mll- limetre guns with (Fe tanks to give a show of strength. It added that the Germans were manoeuv- ring the guns quickly but that in- tensive artlllery preparations were rare. The early morning communique planes downed Sunday increased the total to 28 instead of the previously reported 22 and figures for yesterday were given as S0 Nan losses to l2 Russian. Action was so violent and on so vast a scale that no more than s general picture could be drawn. It appeared that the present Rus- sian line runs from the Gulf of Finland west of Leningrad south- ward to Novgorod and Smolensk and then west of the Dnleper River to the Black Sea. Behind the German side of this line Russian forces were reported holding out in several large poc- kets, lncluding Northern Estonia around Tallinn. Red Star, the army news organ. said use of big guns had become more important than ever now that the campaign had been converkd from a. blitzkrieg into s. prolonged war.
