One year ago next Monday
Adolf Hitler gambled the fate OF
his Nazi Reich on a military cam
paign destined to live in history
as the costliest IL not the most
ill-advised in all the long annals
of war.
It was his invasion OF Soviet
Russia early on the morning OF
June %. 1871.
Now he is deeply enmeshed on
a 1,70O-mile long battlefront,
fighting on the defensive every
where but in the Crimea, opposed
by a limitless, inexhaustible reser-
voir of Russian man power and
materials. .
One thing alone is needed TO
break this ex-corporal and the ma
tional monument of gangsterism
and tyranny he has erected in his
name.
SECOND FRONT VITAL
That Is the second front the
United Nations are preparing. the
second front that Prime Minister
Winston Churchill came TO the
United States to plot and plan
with President Roosevelt.
Two days less IL months ago
Hitler gave the signal for his
ultimate undoing.
Tearing into shreds the five-yeaT
non-aggression pact his oily foreign
minister, Joachim Won Ribbentrop,
had signed with Soviet Foreign
Commissar Molotov at the krem-
lin in a pageantry OF ceremony on
a fateful day in August, 1889. Hit
Ter sent his armies marching to
the east.
Oblivious to the fate OF Napo-
leon on a similar mission OF destiny
a century and a quarter before,
foolishly calm in the belief he
could blitz the poorly equipped"
Russians as he had smashed the
Danes. Norwegians. French, Bel
gians and Dutch. Hitler ordered
his mechanical men TO attack from
the Baltic to the Black Sea.
s-FOLD OBJECTIVE
His detectives were three-Len-
ingrad. Moscow and Astrakhan at
tn. head of the Caspian coastal
plain. gateway 10 the Baku oil
fields.
That he has not yet attained
any one OF them is evidence OF
the manner in which his grand
strategy collapsed completely in
the face OF Russians who, as
Propaganda Minister Coebbels put
il:
Are beaten but will not stop
lighting. are dead but will not
lie down"
But in the initial stages OF that
conflict that saw German. Italian
and Finnish soldiers hurting over
the Russian borders on front Of
] 200 miles. IL appeared almost a
foregone conclution that Russia
could hold but six months at most.
ABANDON MOSCOW

SENT 81 SHELTERS

The collected aluminium scrap,
the report said. was allocated 10
81 smelters throughout the coun'
try.
The report said that only H.
1889 pounds of scrap were COL
lected. of which 6,398.051 pounds
were of aluminium. Officials had
anticipated 100000 pounds, with
the drive expected 10 yield approx
imately 100000 pounds of all
kinds of scrap. The report noted
that the New England states made
the best showing. while the south
ern states proved the least CO.
operative.
Boyd asserted. however, that the
present rubber drive is being con-
Quoted along entirely different
lines and that he could see nc
connection whatsoever between
the two salvage campaigns.

UNPRECENDTED SCALE

Axis forces concentrated their
attack on the northern sector, try
Ing to break through TO the city
but in every sector fighting was or
an unprecedented scale.
A dispatch to Pravda, the Com
munist Party newspaper, said the
Russians threw back eight attacks
in the southern sector in fighting
which cost the Germans thousands
Of men.
Ships of the Russian Black Sea
fleet, standing off the coast. shelled
Axis concentrations and raced
through heavy enemy fire TO de-
liver ammunition and food TO the
garrison.
The cruiser Red Crimea, beating
of repeated attacks, spent five
hours clearing mines from the
shelled coast so IL could unload
reinforcements for the marines
the toughest troops OF the Sevasto-
pol forces.
II had been believed that the
height of the German assault had
been reached. but the Germans
now were attacking with an un'
precedented ferocity. Soviet In.
fantry, marines and artillcrymer
hurled them back. killing thous.
ands and counter-attacked, last

The tempo of the attack wa,
indicated by the announcement
that the defenders had destroyed

MOSCOW, June 20.-Germany
brought up more guns and planes
TO the Sevastopol area today,
ignoring losses as high as so per
cent, in an attempt to overwhelm
the fortress by the first anniver-
sary-Monday-of Adolf Hitler's
"60-day campaign" in Russia.
Special front dispatches reported
that the entire area was shaking
under the terrific impact OF shells
and bombs in an attack which
never ceased day or night.
(The danger to Sevastopol
must now be regarded as very
great" the British radio said,
according TO international News

(The Germans were said 10
have reached a highway lead

Only As Per Cent

WASHINGTON, June 20 GNS)
The national scrap rubber
campaign rolled along in high gear
today with the directors of the
gigantic two-week scavenger hunt
promising the citizenry that II
would not turn out to be another
pots and pans" fiasco.
William r. Boyd Jr.. chairman
of the petroleum industry war
council, called upon the public TO
forget the Inflated aluminium
drive of last summer, final de-
tails of which were made public
yesterday.
THE aluminium drive IL water

Lets not worry about tbat.
Let's 60 get the rubber as the
President ordered"

RESULTS OF DRIVE

The report of the aluminium
campaign showed that the actual
amount of the precious metal col
lected was only 42Ha per cent OF
expectations. Officials blamed
the Office of Civilian Defense, al
that time directed by Mayor F. II
LaGuardia of New York, for in
adequate preparation, and cited
poor transportation facilities.
The WPB said the aluminium
scrap collection campaign was
made without adequate prepare
ton. was poorly handled and the
result was Disappointing.
DEALERS LEFT OUT
"The collection was under
taken by the OCD without CO.
operation OF the dealers, who
wefe-left- entirely cut -ef-the
program" the WPB added.
The report emphasized that any
future scrap collection drive would
be "impracticabie" without the
complete cooperation Of dealers
throughout the country.
Citing delays in shipment OF alu-
minum scrap from scattered COL
lection centers TO smelling plants,
the report noted the following
causes:
