Allied Attack Near
fContinl,ad from Page /

tCOntlnCed from rage II
in a dispatch from Sicily that he
had seen sufficient reconnaissance
photographs of the North African
coast to justify belief that an Al
lied invasion of Southern Europe
was impending.
Weber, whose dispatch was broad
cast by the German radio, acknowl-
edged that the Axis air forces alone
probably could not prevent an Al
lied landing in Sicily, but said he
doubted the Allies could occupy the
island in view of the crack Ger
man and Italian units installed in
key mountain positions there.
Another Berlin broadcast said
that Allied concentrations in the
Near East were believed completed.
THE nerve war is approaching
an end and will soon be replaced
by stronger language from cam
nons,' the station said.
Smuts said 1.-The great hour is ap-
preaching"
There is high expectancy in
mems hearts" he said. The Al
lies now have developed their full
resources for the fight and the enc
my has passed this zenith and is on
the downgrade."

Targets Of Bombs

reported they had smashed the iarg-
est Nazi effort in recent weeks to
force the Northern Donets, throw
ing back 5000 enemy troops that set
out in small boats. Many CASUAL
ties resulted. Six hundred German
officers and men We're killed north
west of Moscow trying vainly to re-
take ground seized by a local Rus
sian advance.
The Berlin radio continued talk
ing of an expected big offensive on
the Russian front by. Red armies.
Air attacks by both sides-perhaps
the prelude to decisive ground
The Pacific generally was quiet,
with scattered raids by Allied planes
in the south and southwest areas.
Gen. Douglas MacArthur's spokes-
man said new reconnaissance re-
vealed ITO enemy planes at the jap
anese base of Rabaul New Britain,
oobject of steady pounding by Al
lied bombers.

There will be no changes in per-
