10 EXPLAIN INVASION Washington, June 17 (U.R) What are the nazis telling their home front as the allies make steady although slow progress through the "impregnable" wes tern ball? Analysis of German domestic propaganda picked up by federal radio monitors re veals these three principal themes: 1. The invasion was launched on orders from Moscow. 2. It was expected, awaited, and welcomed by the German military. 3. It is destined to failure as a "second Dunkirk." The nazl propagandists also exaggerate allied losses; de scribe alleged friction among the British. American, and Ca nadian soldiers; explain the ab sence of large-scale German counterattacks as good military strategy; and continue attacks on President Roosevelt. Say Advent Welcome The German people have been asked in nazl broadcasts to be lieve that the landings in France were welcomed "because the enemy can only be annihilated when he lands." The allied break through the highly-publicized German coastal defenses was explained away by one nazl commentator by describing the Atlantic wall only as a "symbol." In an attempt to allay any fears In German minds, domes tic broadcasts are stressing Ger man preparedness, the absence of surprise at the allied land ings, and what they call the loyalty and passiveness of Ger man satellite countries. The French, particularly, are always described as in a passive mood. 28 FOR ROOSEVELT Indianapolis, Ind., June 17 (U.PJ Indiana's 30 delegates to the Democratic national conven tion at Chicago were instructed by the state party convention today to cast their 26 votes for President Roosevelt for a fourth term. .
