tary and civilian functions and co-1 ordinating command state affairs to conduct total war.The Premier emphasized the necessity of stepping up production of planes and improving air raid defences and called for n strengthening of the fighting spirit of the Japanese people ns a whole.Warning that Japan could look forward to more frequent air raids, the Premier declared that \u201cno matter how frequent these planes come over the people must reinforce their fighting spirit and devote their entire efforts to the defence of the country.\u201d Turning to the war in Europe, Koiso passed lightly over German reverses.\u201cGermany is continuing to fight,\u201d he said.\u201cWe admire her confidence and wish her every success.YY\u2019o believe she will surmount all difficulties.\u201d The Premier assured the Diet that \u201cJapan's foreign policy will bo pursued to insure successful prosecution of the war by strong collaboration with Germany and through the unity of all Asia .Russian Army Reaches Greece In Siartiing Drive Across Bulgaria New York, Sept, 7.\u2014i(Æ\u2019)\u2014Russian troops have driven across Bulgaria into Greece, reaching the Turkish frontier in the Demotica area after a sensational 160-mile advance in two days, the German radio said today in an official D.N.B.broadcast.Another Russian tank column was reported advancing- toward Sofia, the Bulgar capital of 4-00,000.Bulgaria, against which Russia declared war Tuesday night, was invaded at three points, the Germans said, adding: \u201cNo resistance worth mentioning seems to have been put up in consequence of the muddled-up political conditions there.\u201d Berlin announced earlier that Bulgaria had broken relations with her and unconfirmed Turkish dispatches said Bulgaria declared war on Germany to put the Balkan country at war with both sides.The Bulgare pleaded with Russia for an armistice soon after the Kremlin declared war during a time in which armistice negotiations with the United States and Britain were bogged down.The Germans said the Russians j crossed the Danube in the area of ! Uiuriu ami Ruse, Romanian and ! Bulgar towns facing each other 'across the river, and in the area North of Sofia.The Russian plunge to the Iron Gate of the Danube yesterday gave them control of all the north frontier of Bulgaria.Demotica (Didymotheikhon) lies in Thrace, the eastern extremity of Greece which Bulgaria seized and occupied after the German conquest of the Balkans, It is sixty miles north of the Aegean, 190 miles east of Salonika and 130 miles northwest of Istanbul, the former Turkish capital on the Bosporus.\u201cThe general direction of march is toward the Aegean coast,\u201d said the Berlin broadcast, recorded by The Associated Press.The first Russian incursions into Bulgaria took place Tuesday, the day Russia declared war, the enemy said.\u201cThe new Bulgarian Leftist Government which characteristically ir> being called the 'Kerensky Government\u2019 (the transitory Russian regime between the Czar and the Soviet Union) is said to have reached an agreement leaving Bulgarian ground to the Soviet without fighting,\u201d the Berlin radio said.DEWEY OPENING COUNTRY-WIDE APPEAL TODAY Foreign Policy to Feature Talks of Republican Presidential Candidate on Nation-wide Trip.New York, Sept.7.\u2014(/P)\u2014Gov.i Thomas K.Dewey of New York set i forth today, accompanied by 97 persons on an 11-car train, for the first war-time Presidential speaking onm-I paign conducted by any candidate since the era of Abraham Lincoln.YVith Mrs.Dewey and a 21-mem-' her staff, the Republican nominee planned to leave New York City this j morning for Philadelphia where he Avili open his active drive for the Presidency with a 30-minute speech tonight in Convention Hall in which he saw Wendell L.Willkie make off with the nomination he sought in 1940.Seventy-odd reporters will accompany him on a 6,700-mile trip that will take him to the Pacific coast and back by September 28.As Gov.Dewey embarked on his speaking drive, he made it plain that he expects to devote major attention during the campaign to a discussion of foreign policy despite the gratification he expressed at the progress made by the Dumbarton Oaks Conference in Washington toward what he called \u201ca non-partisan approach\u201d to the establishment of permanent peace.Hungary Alone Remains Bulwark Of Nazi Balkan Front To Resist Allies ITALIAN-BASED PLANES ASSIST RUSSIAN DRIVE Many Hundreds of Mediterranean Air Force Blast Retreat Routes of Nazis Fleeing from Russian Onslaught.Rome, Sept.7.-n totalled $270.Wildcat Volo' took | m'o-Tw' Ttlll.n,)'/.» - first place, with two firsts and a1 fd0rther'1\tR \"'as announe- seconti.W.C.Volo is owned by A.1\t1\t____________ Maclore.H, Ingles\u2019 Grattan Lee I came in second place, with a first, [ second and third.Arma Patch, A FINE SUMMER \u201e11U Ullllu \u201e,llm ! «u.,1 Los AnKeles, Sept.7_(IP)\u2014Per- owned by the Ottawa Hotel, Cow- j fl'mcs f!m! .H'wclry valued at $1.200 ansville, took third place with two 1 )L'ere \"llss'ng when Attorney Harold thirds and a second,\t!
