The OREGON STATESMAN, Salem, Oregon, Sunday Morning, January 18, 1942 - PAGE SEVEN t v. -A-'w: ' - I llllli III Tf'l lifcf m ' Vmin iWi .... mmm TMPHhi -kjffl iiilnTTi a m ad So Programs . By KIRKE L. SIMPSON Wide World War Analyst For The Statesman -Six weeks from its grim opening in the Pacific, that war area till grips major American attention; but the most important and possibly decisive front of the axis-allied conflict still is in Russia. The red armies opened a new and little publicized offensive Ion a wire front northwest of the Moscow sector this week which could prove more disastrous for Hitler than any other phase of his great winter retreat His whole grip on northwestern Russia, from the great bend of the Dnieper west of Smolensk to the Baltic, is menaced by Russian thrusts. Lake Hmen, southwest of Leningrad, the Valdai plateau, south of the lake, and the springs of the Volga river on the southern slopes of the pla teau, are vital strong points for the whole northern flank of the German winter line. Down the Volga the northern flank merges with (he Moscow cen tral sector in the Rzhev region. That upper sector, from Rzhev to the Volkhov river north of Lake Hmen, is the most rugged and difficult for military opera tions in all western Russia. De spite that and the added handicap of a Russian winter, red armies have developed within the last week attacks of even greater stra tegic potentialities than the grind ing battle of the Mozhaisk bulge before- Moscow. A deep Russian break-through either above or below Lake II men, down the Lovat valley south of the lake, or along the southern flank of the Valdai plateau would leave the whole German line about Leningrad up in the air. It could force nazi retreat from all northwestern Russia into Esthonia through the narrow land corridor between Lake Peipus and the Baltic at the Russian-Esthonian border The first Russian step in a northern offensive of still un disclosed scope was a drive down the Volkhov toward Nov gorod, near the north rim of Lake Hem. A companion drive from the Msta river, due east of Novgorod is also indicated. The east bank of the Volkhov is now reported cleared of Ger nans and Russian crossings of the river make the nazi hold on Novgorod insecure. South of Lake Hmen but north of the Valdais hills, the Russians have surged westward to invest if they have not taken Staraya Russa, where they suffered a crushing defeat last September. They are also reported swinging along the Lovat toward Kholm from east of Staraya Russa. With Kholm retaken they would be within striking distance of Velikie Luki and Nevel. From the Volkhov front and the Staraya Russa drive, red forces appear converging on Sbimsk, junction west of Lake Hmen, or in a position to by pass it to the south toward Pskov, 100 miles or so west ward. Whether these complex opera tions are a full scale offensive or resigned primarily to exert added pressure on the Mozhaisk bulge I is not clear. It is certain, however, that they imply an even greater threat to the German winter line program than do those operations farther south.
