PAGE SIX THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND, OREGON. WEDNESDAY, JULY 21. 1943 Hitler Believed To Have Written Off Isle As Loss Invasion of Sicily May Prove Real 2nd Front; Germans Face Problem By I.mil l- Kivnilc ll.muJ I'rx War Awlnll Russian reluctance to rocard the Invasion of Sicily ns the open ing of a real "speond front" In Kurope seisms likely to be over come hy th swift development In the Mediterranean and on the Russian front itself. In Sicily. Hitler has failed In the first test of his ability to de fend southern Kurope. It U strict ly a preliminary test, to be sure. But significant in the JIrM of the failure of his own offensive in Russia. Hitler scarcely could have de pended on the Italians themselves to hold Sicily, in view of the ex periences of North Africa. His failure to provide more than two German divisions, or about 5,000 men, and more particularly his failure or Inability to back up the Italians with the necessary air power, indicates that he has writen Sicily off as lost May Abandon Italy It Is not 'rcprobablc that he has similarly written off at least the southern half of Italy, if not all of It up to the great barrier of the Alps. If Killer has done so, his reason Is obvious. The futile effort to hold Tunislr was costly In men and equipment, especially air planes. Similar losses in Sicily and southern Italy might be more than he could stand, in view of changed conditions. Since Tunisia. Hitler's position on the Russian front has deteriorated. The air offensive in western Europe has Crown from a menacing cloud to an enveloping tempest. Hitler cannot afford to weaken his air defenses in western Europe nor his defenses anywhere on the ' long Russian front.. The success of the Russian drive around Orel is. ominous, coming so soon after the collapse of the German of fensive which, while not a general one, was of major proportions. Supreme Text Coming; If Hitler is Unable to prevent the collapse of Italy, his ability to defend the European continent is likely to be given the decisive test soon afterwards. With complete command of the air -and sea, the allies scarcely : could be prevented from crossing ' th Adriatic into Jiicnslavia or Alhpnia n"l f,V"W. If that is the " ir :Kcv cocs" In either crwi.try a sizeable patriot army Is ready to spring into action. The loss of the Italian Dodecanese Islands also would clear the ! southern route into Greece. ! The combination of an allied . army in the Balkans and a re- j surgent red army on the other side would be hard to beat. What ! might happen in bomb-torn north-: western Europe also is some thing to reckon with. Sullivan Sister ..A.

People ia The News - (Br t' Bitot Praa) A. C. C.

Rogers made his suggestion at the start of the emergency conference to save the Jews. MaJ. Alexander P. De Seventy said in Washington today Ger many may be hoarding her aerial might for a blow intended to knock Britain out of the war at a critical moment.
