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

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.

discovering that a reputation for

disadvantages.
You may know him better as

"The fellows expect me to be
such a pain in the neck that they
like it when they discover I'm
not quite as bad as I appeared in
the parts I played."
