Chinaman came up behind him and looked
into the entrance of a tea-house. Annesley
turned to study him. His jacket was buttoned
tightly around the neck so that it pressed
up under the jowls and made the Chnaman
seem rather fat in the face. The rest of him
was as lean as a deer Annesley stepped over

There was discussion of poSsibil-

only on certain streets. but 1t was
said there was not much accord on
this proposal because of the limited
number of streets which would be
available for such restricted traffic.

by the round-table debate, held be-

questions were raised as TO how the

physical conditions.
Also there was debate as to diff
culties caused by speeders and reck-
less drivers, with no final conclusions
reached, except that official records
indicated many of the fatalities were
caused by the faults of walking
pedestrians.
The traffic director and Inspector
Miller agreed that more traffic

Hopes were voiced that some
better solution of the traffic problem

important problems is to obtain con-

Tor the winter.

According to private informa-
ton, the Russians are suffering
severe losses in men, tanks,
planes and armored forces. The
Germans are now ready TO 20
forward slowly but steadily, and
to concentrate on the destruction
OF Russian forces in the field.
Our experts compare the present
military situation to a football
game.
The Germans are winning first
down after first down. The Rus
SLAMS are making them fight
fiercely for each gain. But the
Hitlerites have the Stalinites on
the run. The latter, like a losing
football team. cannot get set to
stage a serious defensive war
or to make a vigorous counter
attack. They are losing men and
material which they cannot af-
ford.
President Roosevelt and Prime
Minister Churchill had conf
Dental reports to this effect
when they met at sea last week.
They had in their hands a des-
perate appeal from Joseph Stain
for immediate assistance. And
the Russians plight explains
why. despite British reluctance
TO 20 all out for the Commun-
lists, Moscow will become a lend
lease beneficiary.
