and reports circulated without Of

There was no minimizing the ser
iouSneSS of the Malayan situation

said that the situation Verged en-

The Russian advance went Of,
without interruption at a rate of IL
o II miles a day.
A German propaganda broadcast
claimed that Nazi submarine has
sunk a British aircraft carrier il.

british WARY
The British watched for signs that
Germany is about to launch some
desperate new military venture, pos
sIbly blow at Turkey, a move
through Spain and Portugal, tbs
taking of French Africa, or a move
against Fire as a preliminary 10 ar
all out offensive against Britain.
1t was reported that the Italians
have established a state of emer-
gency in southern Italy; that Hun
5arian and Swedish volunteers have
oeen pulled out of the Russian
front; that the Germans are aban-
doning the Finnish fronts TO the
rims.
These moves may indicate a re.
disposition of German troo< fo1
i new winter offensive.
A Tokyo spokesman was quoted as
saying that Japan is conducting
friendly negotiations with Russia
There was no indication of the sub
ject of negotiations or what par
might play in the general pic
