This Changing World
Kiev and Leninerod Fronts Believed Key
To Immediate Russian Resistance

In the meantime the Germans
have asked the puppet govern
ments In Eastern Europe to get
ready and contribute more troops
for the eventual policing of the
U. S. S. r." The Budapest ana
Bucharest governments in par
ticular have been instructed to
start training young classes as
quickly as possible.
Neutral observers in Germany
say that the general feeling in
Berlin is that before the end of
the week both the Leningrad and
the Kiev fronts will be smashed
and both key cities will either be
in German hands or ready to
fall.
The Germans claim that the
conquest Of the rich industrial
regions Of Leningrad and Kiev
will definitely break the major
Russian resistance, since the
most important factories are sit
uated in this region. The Rus
sian industrial effort in the Ural
region is negligible, according to
German specialists, and will not
help the Russians to continue
the struggle.

the first supreme test of his guns.
A flight of Messerschmitts came
by, diving and notwithstanding

In and out of the smoke cloud
tanks of both sides moved past
