A general anesthetic was given
the duchess for the operation

scraped.
The duke and duchess have ac-

but the duke showed keen in

of adopting the idea of them for

Her temperature rose between Z

99.4 degrees at one time, but it is
now near normal DR.. Horace L.
Cartee announced.
The Duke was lounging and read
ing today IN their suite at st

the ocean. He and the duchess
planned to remain there at least
three days on the recommendation
of Or. Cartee, who reported after
the operation yesterday that the
condition of the jawbone was more
serious than anticipated"

In Moscow, it was disclosed that
Soviet Union defense preparations
are being pushed with greatest
vigor tThis follows persistent re-
ports that Russia has refused to
agree to German thrusts into the

Soviet Russia is "encircled" by

speech by Gen. G. K. Khukov. COM
mander of the important Kive mill
tary district, and the Red army
must be trained to feel the bitter
est hatred and contempt for our
enemies" regardless of who those
enemies may be- The foreign area
most directly "encircling" the Kive
district is the Balkans, especially
Rumania, where the NaziS recently
have tightened their grip.
For the moment, however, mill
tary developments in North Africa
dominated the war picture. with the
italians hard pressed there as well
as in Greece. @
Referring to military develop
ments, the Fascist newspaper spokes-
man, Virginia Gayda, said that Italy
was confident of eventual victory but
realized that the war involved great
sacrifices. He did not refer specifi-
cally to the battle still in progress
in Egypt,
The outcome of present fighting,
which both Rome and London de-
scribed as severe, may depend upon
the speed with which the Fascists
are able to withdraw and the ability
of the British to maintain their
present positions along the Mediter-
ranean coast against counter thruStS,
according to military reports.
The British version of the desert
operations was that the Italian lines
had been slashed through to the
coast and that an effort was being
made to drive the Italians back
from advance bases TO Maktila and
Nebeiwa so that the British naval
and air force could lombard them.
London admitted, however, that the
italians had superior numbers and
possibly superior equipment and the
outcome of the battle may depend
upon speed of maneuver.
A Rome communique said that
the British obviously were attempt
ing to force the Italians to fight on
two fronts Greece and Africa
both of which presented difficult
supply problems and it was suggest
ed in Fascist sources that the Brit
ish would concentrate all their pow
er against Italy because of inability
to strike at Germany at present.
