New Front in
Europe Likely
in Short Time

Washington, Sept. 2s-lNS -
Highly authoritative diplomatic
sources in Washington foresaw the
possibility today that the swiftness
OF tho Soviet advance on the east
ern front might prompt a speeding
up Of Anglo-American offensive
plans in Europe.
These sources thought events on
the Russian front may overtake
the Roosevelt Churchill grand stra-
tegy plans to such an extent that
the latter might have to be quickly
reviewed.
1t is believed these strategy plans
were based to some extent on the
likelihood that the German armies
would make stand on the Dnieper
Ri"er this autumn.
Near Polish Border
Now that the Soviets are within
200 miles of the old Polish border
in the north and are repeatedly
crossing the Dnieper at numerous
points in the southern Kiev area,
the possibility is seen that the next
few months may witness decisive
turn q events In the European war.

Of the purported last meeting"

The Nazi dictator was said to

in Italy be placed under German

not accept responsibility for such

self gave up the ghost
There Is, however. an atmos-
phere OF doubt about this story.
In the first place, 1t presupposes
an iniative on Mussolinis part
which has been absent for months.
1t also seems strange that after
81 years OF one-man rule over an
entire nation and one-time king
dom Mussolini would go down with
out a fight unless he had to. 1t
seems much more probable that
Mussolini was discharged forcibly
by Badoglio and his followers in
palace revolution, or faded from
the picture, broken in health and
possibly a mental case.
Mussolini has made no public
appearance for months. His last
broadcast speech sounded suspic-
iously like faxed recording.

The borer lives over winter In
the corn plant, either in harvested
stalks or in stubble left In the
garden. In the spring overwinter-
ing borers change to the resting
stage (pupae). Later the borers
pupate and change to moths. The
moths then lay eggs after which
the borers begin TO hatch ready to
attack the corn again.
Since sanitation Is the only
practical control, the Victory gar
dener with a corn patch should
cut all stalks close to the ground
after harvesting the ears, and
burn them and all remains OF the
