WAR INTERPRETIVE
Continued From Page One)

dence in London that the Nazi in
vasion threat is meaningless now;
that it has been abandoned, or that
it would result in a crushing Nazi
defeat, if tried in desperation.
Nevertheless, a mopping-up cam.
paign by air and sea against pos
| sible invasion is the first item on
the daily YEARBOOK of Britain. The
Cherbourg sortie is important
chiefly because it is the first time
British capital ships have taken
part in that phase of the fighting.
These ships are England's final
hole-card against invasion. Their
armored decks give them a def
mite degree of invulnerability to
air attack. It is Nazi torpedoes
that most threaten them.
Sub Rendezvous
As the western extremity of the
most dangerous zone of the "in.
vasion coast" Cherbourg well
might have been the rendezvous
of Nazi submarines concentrated
to protect the flank of an invasion
army. They did not appear when
British naval guns opened fire on
Cherbourg and presumably were
not there but off preying on Brit.
ish cargo.
That would tend to account for
recent increasing cargo tonnage
losses, admitted in London. It also
would justify admiralty risking OF
big ships in the herbourg sortie,
an incident which must help public
morale in England and particular
ly in bomb-battered London, what.
ever else it accomplished.
And the sortie indicates British
intention to make absolutely Ger.
tain against invasion before turn
ing to purely offensive strategy in
a winter campaign in the west.
Worth Attention
When British leadership f e ! S
free to concentrate on counter Of
fensive projects, however, the de-
veloping Rumanian crisis m u S t
catch attention. There. is a weak
spot in any Nazi-Fascist plan to
use Rumania as a jumping : off
place for a new smash to the east.
This is illustrated by comment in
the Germanophile press in Ruma-
mia. 1t charges British diplomacy
with conspiring to attack Ruma-
MAN oil fields by air from Turkey.
The seemingly certain break in
British umanian relations could
open the way to just that. Even
without formal war, arrival of Ger
man troops in Rumania for a sort
of watch on the Danube" makes
that country a virtual Axis war
base. And Rumanian oil is the
vital element for the Axis in the
situation; the most vulnerable point
for British attack if ways a n d
means to attack it can be found.
Turkish-British relations admit
of such an attack by British planes
from Turkish bases if the Axis
push eastward drags Turkey into
the struggle to protect her most
valuable asset as a nation, control
of the Dardanelles.
Nor is German or Axis military
penetration to the Black Sea apt to
sit lightly on Russian minds. That
is Russia's private sea, in Russian
estimation. Across it passes the
bulk OF the oil necessary for the
Red army and Russian industry.
In the absence of adequate rail
service from the Caspian oil fields,
that route is as vital to Russia as
Rumanian oil is to Germany and
Italy. What Russia might do about
the Axis push eastward to the
Black Sea is the great enigma OF
the moment. /

An automobile thief driving q car
stolen in New Haven escaped in

dlebury where the car was aban-
doned and an alleged member Of
the trio captured.
Motor Patrolinen John Murphy
and James Sweeney took part in
the wild pursuit, which led from
Hamilton avenue to Fulton park.
The stolen car passed several rec
lights and stop signs at high speed.
A warning shot was fired as the
thief fled through the park but he
made good his escape.
4 The two officers hailed the car as
it sped along Hamilton avenue, rec
ognizing It's marker numbers as
those of a car, owned by the Thorn
as & Brown Auto Co., Of New Haven,
which had been reported stolen. The
policemen gave chase along Hamil-
ton avenue and East Main street,
through Exchange Place. The speed
ting car then went up North Main
street, to Bishop street and to Pine
street.
After the thief abandoned the au-
tomobile and fled into the park

Requests Filed

The block dances sponsored four
times every week by the park de-
partment of Waterbury are prov
ing even more successful this season
than they were last year. according
to William Derwin, playground SUI
pervisor for the department. A large
crowd invariably turns out for these
affairs, regardless of what part of the
city they are held in. According to
Mr.. Derwin, the department can't
handle all the petitions that come in
frora various communities in the city,
asking that dances be given in their
vicinity. During the month of July
the total attendance at the block
dances amounted to $1,000, which is
an even more surprising number
when one considers the heat which
prevailed on many of those evenings.
The dances are gwen on Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday

music furnished by the park depart
ment band. This evenings will be
