'. ' v - -.- The OREGON STATESMAN. Salem, Oregon. Frldorf Morning. January 9. 1942 f AGS TEETE i t- HIE By KIRKE L. SIMPSON WJde World War Analyst for .The Statesman Although a threatened mass attack on Gen. Mac Arthur's grimly held defense front .northwest of Manila attracts American attention, it is on the other side of the world that events of even . greater significance are being recorded- - In Libya, the nazi master tank strategist, General Rommel, u again, in retreat westward, ac cording j to official ' British ac counts. Under cover of a dust itorm, he has abandoned his at tempted stand at Agedabia to risk a new and perilous attempt to es cape. That means he has lost hope of reinforcements from acr"ss the Mediterranean, proving the effec tiveness of the British sea and air blockade. ; Indications of an astounding ! Russian success in all but trap ping sizeable German army In the; southwestern corner of ; the Crimea share attention with a new red encirclement threat . to nasi forces holdinr the Moz haisk bulge west of Moscow. The flittering: possibility of a ; doable killing, spelling the de struction or capture of numer : ous German front line divisions, is pictured by Russian spokes men and British commentators. The exact position of the lines In either sector is not determina ble. Some reports said the Rus sians, advancing southeastward in the Crimea from landings made north of Sevastopol, have reached Yevpatoriya, within less than ten miles of Simferpol. Other Rus sian forces from the cleared Kerch peninsula and Feodosiya are said to be closing in on Simferpol from the east. That rail and highway junction north of the mountains that rim the south coast of the Crimea is the only German escape route. That the nazis have already raised the seige of Sevastapol to meet the double threat in their rear is clear. Coupled with a further Rus sian landing at Yella on the sooth coast east of Sevastopol Jaysons Men's Suits and Topcoats Gentlemen, here are facts that speak for them selves; Jayson's Annual Clearance of Men's Suits and Topcoats includes such famous names as AD-LER-ROCHESTER and MIDDISHADE all sharp ly reduced!

Res:. $3.50 to 5.00... 275 Use -Ha SCO 5 to menace German retreat lines to Simferpol, the plight of the nasi forces looks extremely seri ous. A Russian thrust westward southwest of Kaluga to Meschovsk in the Moscow area is no less threatening to the powerful Ger man force in the Mozhaisk bulge. It appears to have been a by-passing operation along the secondary highway connecting Kaluga and Meechovsk. Just south of that break, German forces were last reported strongly resisting red ad vances along the Kozelsk-Smo-lensk railroad at Suklinichi junc tion. At Meschovsk the Russians are within close reach of the Rjhev-vyazma-Bryansk general line up on which it has been indicated the Germans hoped to halt for the winter if they could not hold the Mozhaisk bulge. That junction, however, is only 30 miles or so due west of Meschovsk and the Russians are reported already pushing west ward of Meschovsk toward Ser peisk. It would represent a dangerous closing of the red trap far behind the nazi divisions pinned in the bulge if the Russians swung north from Serpeisk. With the road to Ershovka cut behind v them, the nazi retreat lines must all center toward Vyazma by converging routes and Vyazma itself is al ready menaced by the Russians besieging Rjhev to the north. Once by that Volga river town, they could swing due south down the Rjhev-Vyazma railroad to effect a junction with the southern pin cer arm now west of Meschovsk. Annual r.TOrocAen Tuesday PTO"r;e.
