Foe Making Frantic Preparation
AGAINST ; Sided Allied Invasion

STOCKHOLM, Oct. 81. -P)-
Fearing Allied attack from three
sides on the under belly" of Eu-
rope, the Germans are making
frantic anti-invasion preparation in
the already nervous Balkans, ac-
cording to Swiss reports reaching
mere tonight.
Field Marshal Erwin Rommel
has established headquarters in
Zagreb, and a Bern report to the
newspaper Allehanda said Nazi
troop trains were rolling continu-
ously across northern Italy from
France with troops to bolster Ger.
man defenses in Yugoslavia where
the patriots are playing havoc with
Nazi forces.
A Zurich dispatch to the Aftonid-
ningen said the Germans were
looking for a possible Allied at
tack on Yugoslavia's west coast or
through Albania, and also were
preparing for a possible combined
Soviet-British offensive through
the Black Sea against Rumania
and Bulgaria.
Previously the German press
has speculated on an American
British thrust into the Balkans
from Cyprus and through Greece.
Zurich reports said huge con-
tingents of foreign workers were
|laboring, under the direction Of
the Todt organization, on series
Of concrete Qualifications, bunkers
and anti-tank bitches along the
Rumanian and Bulgarian Black Sea
coasts. New heavy coastal gun in
staUments also have been laid,
the Swiss reports said.
South of Odessa the defenses
around the ports of Sulina, Con-
stanta, Varna and Burgas have
been given special attention, &C
cording to the latest reports.
Swiss dispatches said Gen. Rom
mel was reinforcing his Balkan
units not only to prepare against
an Allied INSTRUMENTATION OF
the Italian army left the Germans
with a big gap to fill in the Bal
kans-but to try to wipe out resis
lance from the Yugos1av guerrilla

Rommel, these reports said, also
had to take cognizance of the pos
sibility the Nazis might not be able
to depend on Hungarian and Bull
garian troops in case OF an lnva'
sion.
