 On the western front, the French troops pressing into the Rhineland on both sides of Saarbruecken re- ported that they had consolidated their positions and were almost in a position for direct attack on the main German west wall (Siegfried line) Qualifications.
 Large scale operations against the Germans may be expected at any time, 1t was said in Paris, as a re- suit of the successful French opera tions leading up to the Saar river in German territory. German artillery laid down a heavy fire on the French positions without effect, the reports said, and a new French advance was underway in the Sierck sector.
 French sources reported that Adolf Hitler had about 2,250,000 men un. der arms, with a million each on the western and eastern fronts.
 British Govt. Criticized
 Following yesterdays meeting of the allied supreme war council on French soil, with British Prime Min- ister Neville Chamberlain present, the British house of commons await ed a statement by the prime minis ter regarding progress of the war, The government was under severe criticism for its censorship of news and the subject was due for debate in parliament.

 The whereabouts of Poland's air force was a mystery.

 Tank barriers of the most primi- tive sort were on the roads, usually trees that had been cut down and dragged into place, but the Ger mans had gone around them, cutting through the fields.
 The rural areas were unchanged and seemed as peaceful as American farmlands. Peasants were turning hay or cutting corn.
