Germans Claim
) Key Cities in
Leningrad Area
Pressure intensified, ,
City Now Menoced
From 3 Sides
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, Aug. 2l.-Three key
cities IN the main Leningrad de-
fense ring-heavily defended
Novgorod, Kingisepp and Mar
va-have been captured in a
German drive which is within rs
miles or less of Soviet Russia's S
second city, the Nazi high COM
mand announced today.
The war bulletin from Adolf
Hitler's headquarters, repeating last
nights special announcement of the
partial destruction of 25 Red army
divisions in a great battle around
Gomel, in the Ukraine, also claimed
the capture of Kherson, at the mouth
of the Dnieper River.
Thus the German pressure was
suddenly and sharply intensified at
the northern end of the long eastern
front, directly imperiling Russia S
old Czarist capital, even while the
broad drive to the industrial heart
of the Ukraine surged unabated
around the banks of the Dnieper.
Menaced From Three Sides.
Leningrad now is menaced from
three sides-north, west and south
by German and Finnish forces
steadily pressing in the city's de-
fensive arc.
Germany's armies are driving in
from the south and the west. A

you fellows are in luck" he re-
marks rather grimly as he finds
that two of us are assigned to de-
stroyers. 1t sounded as if what he
said was just what he didn't mean.
But as the horizon takes on faint
tints of a mist-shrouded sunset the
first afternoon it begins to look
like stroke of good fortune. For
here is about the trimmest, fastest,
newest, and, as one of the officers
explains, most terrible weapons Of
warfare" to emerge in the mid-20th
century.
Nobody else has anything like it, y
is not much relationship, other
than in general design, between it
and the destroyers of World-War
days. 1t is the result of the per-
fection Of details. The original
ideas and designs came from ma
rine engineers, the great industrial
laboratories of America, naval re-
search workers. The ideas worked,
but not so well as they might. For
20 years Navy officers actually sail
ing the ships have improved them
imperceptibly, step by step to make
them lighter, faster, more auto
matte, more economical.
For example, it is explained, this
craft is no bigger than the over
age destroyers turned over to Great
Britain. yet it weighs more than
them, and is far speedier and less
pregnable.
We were told that destroyers rode
rough"

officer explains. but not this kind" :"

nouncement the ship was anchored

Commenting on the January
attack, the Germans said they be-
lieved the ship would never leave
Malta because she was resting on
the bottom.
Spanish reports quoted by the
Berlin radio said May, II that the
Illustrious was in Gibraltar with
half her planes destroyed after a
plane attack. but later events

Furthermore, this authority PROM

he asserted that the German people
"are catching it now"
Two big waves of British planes
roared over the Channel and France
in daylight sweeps today.
Observers along the southeast
coast saw a large force of bombers,
heavily escorted by fighters, head
across the Channel early in the
afternoon shortly after a previous
attacking force had returned.
The second sweep was toward the
area of Boulogne and the bombers

Development Of Base
85 Miles From Dakar
Bathurst May Become
African Terminal Of
Plane Ferry Service
BY BLAIR BOLLES.

Reports were heard here today
that lease LEND funds would be used
for the improvement of Bathurst
Gambia, IS miles south of Dakar, as
British base. -...,s .-
Bathurst is regarded as one of the
two most probable African terminals
of the South Atlantic plane ferry
service decided upon by President
Roosevelt and Prime Minister
Churchill during their converse
tions.
Freetown, in Sierra Leone, 500
miles below Dakar, which is con-
sidered as another terminal point
for the South Atlantic airway, al
ready is we'll developed.
Although Mr.. Roosevelt stressed
that this air ferry service was aimed
primarily at making possible easy
American supply of the British
armies in the Middle East, its real
purpose, authorities say, is to nullify
the value of Dakar to the Germans.
Naval Patrol Held Likely.
In order to safeguard the flight
OF the ferry planes, the administra-
ton is said reliably to be consider
ing the use of American naval YES
sells to patrol the route and to
guard the waters around the east
ern and western terminals-probably
Natal, Brazil, the furthest eastern
point of the New World, and Bath
urst and Freetown.
In this manner the American
patrol of the North Atlantic, which
has been successful in cutting down
the German sinkings of England
bound shipping, could be extended
to the South Atlantic.
Despite vigorous French denials of
colonial cooperation with the Nazis,
reports reach Washington of Ger
man infiltration into Dakar, the
Senegal port which the British and
