There was at the same time a manifestation of growing fear in Ankara! that Turkey, Britain's non-belligerent ally, would be drawn in any day. There were widespread reports that a state of siege had been declared in Tur key and that civilian evacuation of the Dardanelles and a large sec tion of jEuropean Turkey as well as of Istanbul Itself had been or dered. j Hardly had the rreat battle been Joined when the Germans allered that the British had been ordered to fall back rom sec ondary defense positions la northern Greece, leaving the Yugoslavs alone. The intercep tion of a message to that effect "Left wing threatened; with draw" was claimed by the of ficial German news agency. The Hungarians, Germany's mi nor axis partners, joined the in vasion, sending soldiers into a sec tion of ' the Yugoslav province of Crotia, ( between the Drava and Sava rivers, in avowed retaliation for thej bombing- of Hungarian towns. The British, Belgian and Dutch diplomatic missions left Budapest, thus signalizing the end of all re lations with the Hungarian gov ernment Members of the Yugoslav royal court, in flight from a country torn apart and already all but de stroyed; as an independent entity, were understood to have arrived by plane in Turkey, where the young King Peter also expected to take refuge. There were growing signs that the British, occupied as they were in the Balkans, faced a new show down in eastern Libya, which they had been forced to strip of many roops. British sources in Cairo jaid that both the imperial and axis forces were massing for a big battle east of the Gebel El Achdar mountain range, which ex tends between Bengazi and Derna in Libya and at one point is 150 miles West of the Egyptian bor der. British reinforcements were arriving from east Africa. This indicated as Winston Churchill already had warned that the British, having long since broken the Italian threat to Egypt and the Suez canal, might be forc ed to fight in a much harder de fensive action against the nazis and fascists in combination.

Russell, public utili ties commission engineer who spent 19 months working in the South American republic, told members of the Salem Realty board at their luncheon meeting at the Quelle Friday. Russell estimated that 100,000 miles of railroad and perhaps a million miles of improved high ways are needed for proper de velopment. h "The country has been stran gled, he said, "by the improper way railroads were built and fl nanced and the way they have been administered. Russell minimized the danger of German infiltration into Brazil. With one exception, he said, all of the German colonists he. had met there were suffering from hookworm, an Infestation as pre valent in Brazil, as it was former ly in the southern United States. Coffee remains Brazil's most important crop, Russell said, and the price has been fairly well es tablished. The Brazilians are very friendly to the United States, which buys 60 per cent of the en tire coffee crop. "They are the only people in South America that really like us," he declared. The country is rich in undevel oped mineral wealth and a start has been made in producing a high quality cotton, production of which Russell said would equal United States production before many years. The rubber industry, once nearly wiped out by compe tition from British plantations in the East Indies, is on its way back also, he said.
