Russia Warns Bulgaria
Not to Expect Help

SOFIA, Bulgaria, Feb. II P.-
With German troops poised on her
northern frontier. little Bulgaria has
been informed by Soviet Russia not
to expect the Red Army to march
if Germany should swing into this
country, reliable diplomatic quar-
tiers reported last night.
Arkady A. Soboleff, special Rus
sian envoy to Sofia, was understood
to have told Foreign Minister Ivan
Popoff and Premier Bogdan Philoff
that Russia was not prepared to
give aid to Bulgaria if the Nazi army
struck across Bulgaria's intervening
300 miles to get at Greece or Turkey.
Britain's severance of diplomatic
relations with Rumania carried
an implied threat that British
bombers might roar across Bulgaria
to bomb the German occupied
Rumanian oil fields.

Germans Are Reported
Arriving in Bulgaria

ISTANBUL. Feb. II ,P.-The
Turkish official newspaper Otrat
Politika said today that German
troops we're arriving steadily in
Bulgaria, their officers declaring
Our goal is the Bosporus and Med
iterranean."
The newspaper attributed its re-
ports to a Turk long resident in
Bulgaria.
German soldiers wearing civilian
overcoats were taken from Dobruja
and the Bulgarian Black Sea port
of Varna to the interior of Bulgaria
in trucks" the article said. About
200 truck loads of these soldiers
have been seen passing through q
village of Dobruja."
Turkish newspapers all aSSalled
Bulgarian policy, but gave little hint
of Turkeys own intentions should
Germany occupy Bulgaria in ar
attempt to get at this country OF
Greece
The Turkish government obviously
is awaiting developments before
committing itself. Most foreign OBJ
servers believe Turkey will not move
unless directly attacked.
Some government quarters have
expressed belief that Germany is
not yet on the point of actually
occupying Bulgaria.
These circles declined to throw
any light on what position Turkey
on-belligerent ally of Britain
would do in the event the NaZis do
move into the neighboring kingdom
Her stand is expected to be in
fuenced largely by what Soviet Rus

ROME, Feb. II lP).-Italian troops
were reported today by the high
command to have thrown back at
tacking British troops led by tanks
on the right side of the ONO River
In the upper Sudan.
Heavy artillery exchanges were re-
ported further north in the Cheren
sector in Eritrea, but there was no
mention in the daily war bulletin of
other fighting in that area.
Nothing new was reported from
the Libyan front.
The cOmmuniQue said Italian war
planes had aided in repelling the
British attack along the ONO River,
but did not state specifically where
the fighting took place.
The ONO River flows south from
Central Ethiopia to enter Lake Ru-
dolf near the junction of the Ethi-
opian, Sudanese and Kenya Colony
frontiers. For about so miles north
of Lake Rudolf the river follows a
north and south course some so of 10
miles from the Sudanese frontier,
then swings sharply to the east. The
stream turns north again about ITO
miles from the Sudanese border.
