The emperor commanded Konoye
to attend state affairs until further
command
Informed political quarters said
the emperor would receive Konoye
again late tonight.
Resignation of the cabinet was
regarded as indicating the urgency
with which Japan is treating the
current international situation. All
of the ministers had been sched-
uled to attend war dead enshrine-
ment ceremonies at the Yasukuni
Shrine in the presence of the en-
peror Saturday and there had been
no expectation that cabinet crisis
would develop until Sunday at least.
In Shanghai. close observers OF
far eastern developments predicted
that Kcnoyc would not attempt 10
form a new cabinet except at the
most urgent request of the en-
peror Some Shanghai quarters early
this month predicted the early fa,l
of the Konoye government and they
said today that a war cabinet now
would be installed with the object
of directing Japan in an effort to
break what japanese militarists re-
gard as encirclement by the United
States. Britain, Russia and the

clear.
Actually there was nothing IN
military reports from either the
Russian or German side to indicate
that Moscow has been encircled.
However there was no doubt that
the Germans are pressing close TO
the city and it seemed possible that
isolated armored units of the panzer
forces may have slipped through at
various points, possibly including
positions east of MOSCOW.

warning by navy spokesman that
Japan's fleet was Itching for ac..
ton.
Political sources suggested that
KonoYc would not be asked TO form

Many observers believed that the

British Fearful
Moscow Will Fall

They added. however, that ii was
possible the Germans had made
some advances in the Kalinin sec
tor to the northwest of Moscow
and the Kaluga sector to the south
west
1T appears probable that the bat
tie west Of Moscow has now
reached the crisis an informant
said.
German claims of advances or
the central front were borne out
by Russian admissions of forced
retreats before the terrific blows
of the German armies striking at
Moscow from the Kalinin sector
to the northwest. the Borodino
Mozhaisk sector to the west anG
the Kaluga-Tula sector to the
south.

indication. The great Central Rus

LONDON, Oct 16. CUPl-A fresh
wave of pessimism swept British
military quarters today sa adyicea
reported that Adolf Hitler was driv
inc on Moscow with the greatest
army ever concentrated against d
single objective, and that his arm
cred 5pearheads were hardlby more
than 80 miles from tho capital.
So serious was the situation re-
garded here that military experts
suggested that Josef Stain anG
the Russian command might soon
be faced with the question whether
to maintain the battle line before
Moscow or to withdraw fighting
which would mean the destruction
of the ancient capital-and make a
stand on more favorable ground
to the east.
authoritative informants said tine
Germans appeared not to have
made any big advances in the last
q hours. though very heavy fight
