Nazis Reported Set
For Black Sea DriUe

Nevertheless, according I, re-
ports from Ankara. the German
high command is expected soon to
be ready to operate in the Black
Sea-though not until after the
Nazi forces. in their Russian drive,
have captured Odessa and bottled
up the Sea of Azov and the
Crimean Peninsula.
That Axis forces are being pre-
pared for major move in this
area is evidenced by several
closely associated events. Ger
man and Italian troops are being
concentrated in Bulgaria, Yugo-
slavia and Greece. where they
appear to be menacing the Turk
ish frontiers.
Reports during the last week
indicate the completion of Sui
garian mobilization and Of the
stationing of nine divisions III the
Thracian region. eight others dl-
rectly on the Turkish frontier, and
three on the eastern end OF the
former Greek frontier. TheV are

Lifeboat Damaged

On leaving the scene, the sub
marine accidentally damaged the
stern of the lifeboat. The COM
mander shouted an apology and
an "auf wiedersehn" just before

only II hours before it was sighted
by the Polish warship and its &C.
cupants were picked up.
All II of the Americans aboard
the Inflated vessel were trained
pilots, including some commercial
filters and others who had been

Besides the Leningrad. Odessa
and central sectors, the area
around the Ukrainian capital of
Kiev and the district along the
lower Dnieper River also were
listed in official Russian advices
as the scenes of sustained Red
counter-attacks.
On the central front, where
Marshal Semyon Timoshenko's
forces have been persistently
counter-attacking for some three
weeks in the Smolensk-G omel sec
tor, the Red army's newspaper
Red Star asserted that German
d efenses were progressively
crumbling.
Marshal Klementi Voroshilov's
forces defending sorely-tried Len
ingrad were credited with retaking
a vital railway zone between sta
tions identified as F and N, and
thereby lifting Nazi pressure from
an essential communications ar
terry.
Similarly, fierce counter-attacks
west and northwest Of Kiev were
declared TO have alleviated for the

to Russia's Undertaking metrop-
oils In that area, saber-swinging,
hard-riding Don Cossacks were
reported knitting deep into the
German rear to surprise and
smash numerous Nazi contingents

Finally, Winston Churchill says
United States naval patrols have
been ordered to warn the peace
full shipping of all nations out
side the combat zone of the pres
ence of@urking U-Boats or raid
ing cruisers.
h, Washington observers add all
these statements together, con-
clude that the American patrol
puts a mighty ticklish point up
to Hitler.
Raiders and submarines are
effective only if their presence at
given moment in a precise spot
is not known. If American pa
trolls were to broadcast the pres
ence of Greman raiders, would
Hitler order his raiders to attack
American patrol vessels? Or
would he prefer to limit raider
actions to the area he has al
ready announced to be the COM
bat zone?
If he ordered his raiders to
fire on patrol vessels, what risk
would he run? Would America
decide to fight?
AS the cards have been played
in the war game up to now,
Roosevelt, Churchill ct al, have
checked the bet to Hitler.
