Encirclement MoUe

The German aim is to encircle
the British Isles to cut off Ameri-
can deliveries. This would be done
with the co-ordinated cooperation
of long-range scout bombers in
scouting and locating conveys and
wirelessing their location and
their course to surface raiders and
submarines, which come up to the
surface at specified hours.
This enlightenment has been
facilitated since the German right
naval and air arm extends along
the Norwegian coast to the North
Cape, and the left is now appar-
entity seeking a way to stretch out
along the coast of Spain to La
Coruna.
The peak of the battle on the
sea and under the sea to cut Brit
aims lifeline is expected in April
and May.
Wave after wave of hundreds of
bombers, carrying 220 of the
heaviest caliber" 3,300-pound ex-
plosive monsters. and with tens of
thousands of incendiary bombs,
will seep into England nightly,
say these sources.
Arrivals from Germany tell of
the uninterrupted preparations
for invasion, now so extensive
they cannot be concealed.

be given. are the explanations
offered to somewhat impatient tri-
partite pact partner-Japan. Capri
cious Spring weather is also ex-
pected to have much to say as to
the day and hour of the general
assault.
In Japan. as general throughout
the world, including Germany, the
universal opinion is that Hitler
will attempt to invade England.
Imperative logic. military, political
and economic strategy and tactics
have driven him to it relentlessly.
This situation has been created by
the failure of Marshall Goering's
luftwaffe to batter the thought of
peace into British heads.

Hitler Adonont

AS has been expected, Hitler
clings to his own pet ideas with
the tenacity a terrier hangs onto
a bone. It. is by no means certain
he has wholly given up his aim to
harry and worry the British into
considering his terms, despite aid
from Washington, and thereby
avoid possible invasion.
Last June, in Belgium, Hitler
said to me:
'Tf British statesmen retain .
grain Of reason they will sec tho
situation as II is and consider
peace"
When I expressed the opinion
his hope was in vain, he argued:
at is true 1 have long been
following illusion In respect to
England, but the British are
predetermined people,"

Gas Up to Hitler

According to reports from Ger
man military circles, Hitler has
placed the death penalty for any
one who uses gas without his
special orders. He, himself. will
decide If and when gas is TO be
used and if the British first use
gas in defense. Hitler has al
legedly declared that only he will
give that order and he alone will
take upon himself the sole re-
sponsibility for it.
Hitler claims to have been
gassed in the World War and was
blinded for awhile. Since then he
has always professed a horror of
gas warfare.
Hitler is said to have already
selected his secret "kommando-
stelle," or place of command
from where he best can follow
the great battle of land, sea and
air when the general assault be-
gins. His place most likely will
be on wheels.
Invasion of England would for
the first time in history bring such
a co-ordinated battle OF four
dimensions, land. sea, underses
and in the air.
Hitler, as I have previously
written. declared to his field
marshals and generals:

men In quick decisive battles

Preliminary BIouDs

Toxic sources in close touch
with Berlin say that aside from
liquidating Greece by diplomacy
or arms, and expected develop
ments in Spain. there may be two
fprefiminaries to general on
slaught with invasion, if that
comes. These are an intensified
Iundersea and surface raider often
sive, and bombing attacks on an
unprecedented scale, calculated to
wear out, if not crack the magni-
ficent morale the British people
are displaying.
When the submarine campaign
reaches its anticipated peak it is
expected there will be 200 to 300
U-boats of Germany's underses
fleet, together with some sc
Italian submarines, in co-ordinated
operation.
Germany's surface fleet is re-
ported to have been strengthened
by the addition of two 5000 ton
fast battleships, the Bismark and
the Tirpitz. They allegedly were
completed in record time and are
now in commission.
Much to the wonderment of
Japan especially, the fleet of the
British navy so far apparently has
not succeeded in sinking any of
the German sea raiders which
played havoc with the British
conveys in the northern and east
ern Atlantic.

More Chute Troops

That the invasion threat has not
been abandoned is indicated by the
reported increase in the training
of parachutist fighters. Numerous
regiments of these have been or
ganized. Also many more regi-
ments of "air landing troops"
whereof parachutist fighters are
the vanguard, are said to be in
readiness for action. 1t is asserted
that 500 transport planes are
being made ready.
Parachutists, of whom little has
been heard lately, are the most
hard-boiled, most reckless and
toughest group in the German
fighting forces. They have the
highest percentage of casualties of
any branch of the service. Def
ance of death has earned them the
name of the German Samurai."
A parachutist surgeon, with a
medical kit, is among the first to
jump with each unit. The surgeon
is ready to bandage sprained
limbs, or to care for other hurts.
Injuries are frequent despite the
fact that parachutists are gotten
up like football players, and are
heavily bandaged about the ankles,
knees, elbows and heads.
Germany is forming skeleton
lied civil stats of persons who
speak English. Many former resi-
tdents of England have been mobiI-
lied. organized and directed to
hold themselves in readiness for
service.

PouOer Dissipated

America, France, Italy, Russia
Rumania, Yugoslavia, Japan
Portugal and China were active
in the World War, and were allies
of Great Britain. Altogether Fl
countries were battling against
Germany.
Germany's strength was dis
sipated with her scattered armies
fighting on five major and several
minor fronts, extending from
Palestine to France. Her SUBJ
marines were in waters of five war
zones.
The luftwaffe failure has
brought the U-boats back into
favor, along with the line of
thought, you starve me and I'll
starve you," that was expressed to
me by Grand Admiral Won Tir-
pitt, in November, 1914, in one of
the most sensational interviews of
the World War.

World War Examples

Decision and plans for some
thing like Spring blitz campaign
were preceded by a thorough cam
vas of the situation by Hitler
and his military and economic
chiefs and experts.
Hitler is fond of using the
World War as an example of what
not to do. That war cost Ger
many 1,773,700 dead and 3,216,O58
wounded in the four years and
three months of fighting.
The cost to France was $685.
300 dead and wounded.
The British empires casualties
were 1898, 583, or two and a half
million less than France.
The German general staff
records show the German dead
and wounded in the 10 months of
the present war of conquest in
Poland, Denmark, Norway, Hol-
land, Belgium and France, are
under $4,000. This is scarcely
more than half the losses in the
famous battle of the Somme, Is
years ago.
