Attack by Air Is Intensified Shipping Is Apparently ,-, Principal Target of . , Germans Bombs 'i (Con tin a ed from page 1) at least four others were believed ""to hare been bagged In a fierce sky fight wnlch developed when British defense planes intercepted a German fighter-escorted "bomb- lag aauadron orer a southeast port. British fliers, the air ministry disclosed, retaliated with night bombing attacks Friday against naval and air bases in Germany and Holland and on nazi aircraft factories, oil reserves and commu nications. That Britain is shifting: from a purely defensive to a strategy aimed ultimately at an offensive on the continent was the verdict of neutral military observers on the selection of General Sir Alan Brooke, tough, seasoned Ulster roan, to command the home forces in place of General Sir Edmund Ironside. Winter of Hardship in Europe Forecast .Germany, meanwhile, kept din ning Adolf Hitler's last appeal to " reason into English ears as the high command detailed wide- "spread havoc on British shipping and military objectives, including claims of sinking 5000-ton mer chantman and damaging thread others and a destroyer. With the war apparently turn ing toward a new, critical phase and Germany tightening her "starvation blockade" on Britain, another winter of hardship in Europe seemed increasingly like ly. A wheat forecast in Bucharest anticipated a Rumanian harvest of 1,(39.000 metric tons com pared to a normal yearly average of about 5,000,000. The Rumanian situation re flected poor prospects throughout southeastern Europe and the probability of throttled exports, especially to Germany. Yugoslav ia,, usually an exporter, It was said, will have to import grain for her own needs and Hungary al ready has taken steps to assure wheat for her own people.

Radio transmitters dinned Adolf Hitlers "last appeal to reason" Into English ears until, as authorised sources put it. ev ery Englishman knows exactly what is in store for him Unless he gets rid of "the plutocratic ruling ellq.ee" which wants to keep on fighting. Repeatedly the English were told that Hitler has no desire to harm either England or her empire. It was suggested that only by getting out from under Churchill's control can England escape the German onslaught. There was, moreover, not the slightest hint either in Hitler's speech or in the words of radio or press that Germany is slowing a one lota in her preparation dor this attack. It is assumed that the whole military and naval ma chine' Is ready to go at any time ait the fuehrer's word.

Fire Peril Held Worst in Years Moisture Deficiency Gets Blame; 7400 Blazes Already Counted WASHINGTON, July 20-(JP)-James J. McEntee, civilian con servation corps director, said to day the 1940 forest fire season in the west threatened to become one of the most severe in recent years. He quoted Roy Headley, chief of the US forest service tire con trol division, as advising him that "the stage is- set tor the eighth of a series of really bad fire seasons. "It may well turn out to be the worst season since 1924." Headley added. He blamed widespread deficien cy of moisture over large areas of forest of the great plains for the current danger. "This means." McEntee said, gions. as well as thousands of other fire fighters, will no doubt he kept busy the next tew months.'" 4 Number Excess! to Forest service reports showed the total number of fires fn na tional forests so far this year to be more than 7400 compared with 25$ over a similar period last year. Headley said the highest po tential forest tire danger existed In Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, California. Nevada and Utah. He said the danger, however. would be lessened by the new 113,000 miles of truck trails de signed primarily for forest pro tection purposes.
