BY HUGO SPECK
Intl News Service Stan Correspondent

BERLIN, Sept. 30.-Predictions
Of a halt in major operations in
Russia during the Winter, to be
followed by an early Spring
offensive" appeared today for the
first time in the official German
press.
Voelkischer Beobachter, chief

by Colonel Scherf1, a military
expert and member OF the general
staff. in which he stated:
"Winter without doubt one Of
these days will halt operations
in the East /"
He declared, however. that the
Germans will emerge from the
severe Russian Winter much
stronger than the Soyiets, point
ing out that they viii be fighting
farther cast than md the kaiser y
armies that stayed in Russia for
several Winters during the World
War.
Colonel Scherff said that this
time we are not fighting a two
front war and can give our troops
everything they need 70 survive
the Winter physically and men,

In 1924 Peter determined to
crown Ekaterina "Our most
dear cOnsOrt, SOVEREIGN

The most magnificent
crown, grander than that
worn by Ivan the Terrible,
was ordered.
A gilded carriage was con-

and on the second of May,
Mentchikov's little laundress.
the Livonian camp girl, was
made empress as Peter him

William Mons, who with his
sister Matrena sold Gather

Peter was enraged at the
corruption and at his con-
sorts possible infidelity.
He had Mons executed and
then placed his head, pre-
served i'm alcohol. in Gather
ines bedroom as companion
for the night.
Peter was completely
estranged from Catherine.
He was apparently devising
in his mind some picturesque
and unprecedented cruelty to
wreak upon her when fate
again interviewed.
Suddenly Peters strength
utterly failed him.
