ASBURY PARK EVENING PRESS (TUB EVENING NEWS), FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 13, 1912 Engines Landed Men in The Service Germans Drive At Stalingrad MOSCOW Repeated German attacks, which Red Star characterized as the beginning of a new Nazi offensive, were hurled at the defenders of Stalingrad yesterday but the Russians declared today that all the assaults had been repelled with heavy Nazi losses. The Red army organ said the Germans had thrown over-whelm-ingly superior forces into the battle and the midday communique of the Soviet information bureau described the fighting as fierce. The official bulletin, however, did not go so far as to label the assaults a full-fledged offensive and the details which it gave were not indicative of a large-scale battle. "In the Stalingrad area," the communique said, "fierce fighting continued.

Our troops are firmly de-tending their positions and repulsing attacks by enemy infantry and tanks. "In one sector eight Red army men who were defending the flank of their detachment repulsed three German attacks and a fourth attack by an entire company of German infantry. The Germans left 60 dead on the field." Northwest of the Volga river city, Russian troops repulsed an enemy attack and wiped out 150 Nazis, the bulletin added. The government organ Izvestia reported meanwhile that Russian aviators of the Black sea fleet had made a damaging surprise raid with parachutists on a German airdrome near Maikop in the Caucasus. Following a heavy aerial bombardment.

Izvestia said, the parachutists armed with special equipment were dropped on the field, where they set fire to 13 planes and damaged 10 more. They also were reported to have burned a railway station. Approximately 80 German planes were said to have been using the airdrome as a base to attack Black sea ports. Loeh Arbour Fire Alarms 1.

Fire Insurance Fight Settled (Special to The Press) TRENTON A $16,000 suit for recovery of insurance on a home owned by Mrs. Babe Kaufman, destroyed by fire in March, 1941, has been settled for $14,000, it was announced today. Mrs. Kaufman started suit against the Yorkshire Insurance company after a fire razed her home at 50 Hooper avenue, Atlantic Highlands. The case was scheduled to be heard by Federal Judge Philip Forman and a jury here.

The insurance firm refused to pay on the grounds that Mrs. Kaufman, a distributor of music and cigaret machines, had used the cellar of her home to store these machines contrary to the provisions of the policy. Mrs. Kaufman's contention was that the machines were located in a separate storehouse and not in the cellar of the home. She contended also that the charge of the insurance firm was without legal effect because even if the machines were stored in the cellar, that fact did not increase the hazard to the building.

Mrs. Kaufman was represented by Howard M. Lawn, of the Red Bank law firm of Quinn and Doremus, and the insurance firm by Arthur T. Vanderbilt, Newark. Testimonial Dinner Given by 'Fleas' Continuing its program of unique testimonial dinners, the Royal Order of Fleas last night assailed and praised two guests of honor at a second annual banquet in Lero's restaurant here.

The Fleas, organized a year ago. were incorporated as a New Jersey organization March 5. Members selected the two guests of honor after a canvass of the city disclosed that all other eligibles either had attended too many dinners in the past year or else were considered unworthy of the Feas' jibes. It was voted last night to hold another dinner in the spring and also to continue as members, without payment of dues, men in the armed aervices.

Attending last night's banquet were J. Stanley Herbert, Dr. William J. Jemison, Michael Lero, Eugene Capibianco, Felix Foggia, Harry O'Brien, Henry Patterson, lack Maron, Lester Knutt. Anthony diBennedito.

Egbert Close, Harry DeWees. Arthur Kelly, Arthur Johnson. Arthur Johnson, and Alfred Stansbury. Fleas in service are Donovan Man- lini, Charles F. Shaw, John C'ar-hene, Rocco Traverso, Walter Blower, Paul Stansbury.

12, bequeathed her estate to her husband, Johnston, and appointed him executor. The will was dated Nov. 16, 1928. Katherinc Hobrough Whiting, Red Bank, who died Oct. 7, left her clothing to Emma H.

A and gasoline ration book holders will be required to have their tires inspected every four months, while and book holders will face inspection every two months. If the applicant owns more than five passenger tires he will not be given a tire inspection record. The registrar will retain the entire registration form and turn it over to the rationing board. When the car owner has sold his excess tires to the government he may go to the rationing board and get his tire inspection report. In a special bulletin issued today Mr.

McKenna clarified for New Jersey motorists the effect of postponing rationing from Nov. 22 until Dec. 1. Washington postponed the effective date of mileage rationing because distribution of necessary forms had not been completed thru-out the country. New Jersey, however, has the needed forms for registering all passenger car owners.

McKenna explained that the postponement merely means that rationing boards will begin accepting applications for tires and recapping from passenger vehicle owners on Doc. 1 instead of Nov. 22. Meanwhile, he pointed out, gasoline and tire rationing will continue as in the past.

In North Africa NEW YORK, The army's landing in North Africa was so pow erful and so thoroly equipped that even bridges and railroad locomo tives were put ashore. Robert Patterson, undersecretary of war, said last night at a dinner meeting of the Crowell-Collier Publishing company. "The expedition was one of the largest, if not the largest operation, of its kind in the world history. Patterson said, adding that 700,000 different items of equipment and supply were landed with it on the North African shore. He said that seven tons of ship- ping per man were required to land the expedition and a ton and a half of shipping a man would be needed to maintain supplies.

There are 250,000 different ordnance items, alone. These include tanks and guns, ammunition and spare parts.
