Russian Battle Line Is Broken
 And Her Strength Shattered
 Fighting Becomes Hand-to-Hand

UNDATED, Jan. 5 (P)-Fight- ing on Finland's eastern border developed into hand-to-hand que rilla encounters with both Rus sians and Films using ski troops for sudden sweeping dashes over hills and among the trees of the bitterly cold snow-swept coun- try. Gone, at least for the pres ent, is the threat of a Russian drive to the westward across Finland's narrow waist. The Fin nish defeat of the Reds 163rd Division on the ice al Lake Ki- anta shattered the Russians bat tie strength, there is no longer a well defined battle line and the Films held the initiative in the skirmishes which did occur.
 There is virtually no news of the German-British- French war. Germany reported somewhat liv- Her artillery action on the West ern Front and continuing air re- 1 connaissance against Britain and France.
 On the diplomatic front Rus sia reported the concluding of commercial treaty with Bulgaria and at the same time the Soviet government began similar nego- tiations with Japan and continu- ed trade talks with Germany al- though it was rumored in Sofia that Russia might ask military concession in return for Bulgar- ia's trade. Moscow said the pact dealt principally with the Black
