Observers Say Wars Outcome
Nav be Decided Within Month
fBy international News serviesl

(By international News Service)
As the major battle OF the global
war RACED today on the Russian
front. military observers in Wash.
ington declared that the outcome
of the war may we'll be decided with
in the next 80 days.
II this is an accurate prediction,
the fate OF the world is being fought
out on the lower Don where spear
heads OF fierce Cossacks beat off
mighty attacks OF reinforced Ger
man armies pressing on Soviet de-
lenses of the Caucasus and its vital
oil and grain.
The battle of the Don centered
at four points-around kushcheys-
kaya, Salsk, Tsimlyansk and Klets
kaya. While the Soviet forces were
believed still holding these towns,
the overwhelming power OF the
Nazis was credited with some gains
around Salsk, 100 miles southeast
OF RostoV.
During the past % hours Soviet
communicates listed 800 Germans
slain and scores OF enemy tanks
knocked out OF action.
Watch Developments
Washington observers watched
developments in Russia with the
greatest concern. They we're not
yet sure whether the showdown of
the Nazi drive in the Caucasus and
their failure to gain elsewhere along
the 500-mile battlefront in the bend
OF the Don was TO be credited to the
heroic Russian defense or the en-
emy's necessity to pause 10 consoli.
date gains and bring up fresh troops
and supplies.
Military analysts were convinced
that the next month will determine
whether Japan will strike at the
Soviet rear through Siberia. Favor
able weather is drawing rapidly to
an end, and in addition it was point
ed out that Japan probably would
not strike until the Soviet armies
to the west are in more desperate
straits.
There was little tendency to spec
ulate about an Allied second land
front in Europe.
Fate In Doubt
Meanwhile the fate Of the Kekoda
airport on the southeastern tip Of
New Guinea was in doubt today. Re-
ports to Melbourne newspapers
limited that the Japanese had seized
the vital field. This was not admit
ted in today's communique from
Gen. Dou glas MacArthur's headquar
ters which said The situation
around kokoda was unchanged"
But it was admitted that Japan

foothold to threaten the Allied base

Allied bombers carried out light
raids on nearby enemy bases and
scored direct hit on supply ship,
which had to be beached, the COM
munique stated.

why Mr.. Upper got an Upper!

Obviously Mr.. Topper being man who likes
to keep his chassis the ground, didn't take this
upper by choice. Frankly it was the only space left
when he called for reservation.
At the present moment, Mr. Upper is scarcely
in the frame of mind to remember that our respon-
sibility to the armed forces-calng for instant and
urgent cooperation-may limit accommodations
upon occasions.
Moreover we must handle both military and CT
william travel with our present equipment, as pri-
critics make it impossible to build new passenger
cars at this time.
The accommodation that Mr.. Upper would
have preferred might be moving soldiers hundreds
of miles away We think this is as it should be
that first things come first. And Mr. Upper, right
guy" at heart, doubtless would agree.
You may have experienced no inconvenience
whatsoever in obtaining accommodations up to
now. But should any occur, we believe that your
understanding of the problem will brighten your
acceptance Of the solution.
