I PAGE TWO THE EVENING HERALD, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON October 6, 1941 LONDON HEARS MOSCOW L OF HEW DRIVE (Continued from Paso One) ' Sportspnlast speech last Friday. At least that was the line taken by German commentators. Berlin, however, gave no in dication of the goal of the new drive, but Dirnst Aus Dcutsch land, a commentary close to of' ficial circles, said the opera' tions were so great as to be similar to the opening of a new campaign." There was speculation in Lon ,'. don that the major objective was the Russian capital with the attack developing especially . from the area of Roslavl about - 230 miles southwest of Moscow. The German high command, holding Its counsel in customary fashion, devoted most of its communique to the Leningrad . action, saying that Russian at , tempts to land - strong forces west of that second largest city had been crushed. "Offensive operations in the east yielded additional successes yesterday," said the commu nique. - "An attempt to land strong soviet forces west of Lenin grad, supported by the fire of the entire Kronstadt fortress, ships and coastal artillery, was completely crushed yesterday : through the determined action of German troops." The Russian move on the out side of the Leningrad siege lines ,. apparently was tuned with a . thrust from the Inside, but the ' Germans said that it, too, was . shattered -with : "heavy and bloody losses" for the Russians. "Troops which were .landed , were wiped out or. taken pris oner," the communique went on. "Several fully laden ships were sunk and 22 tanks, in eluding seven . of super-heavy types were destroyed. On. Germany's air fronts, the high command - announced' Russian port on the sea of Azov was bombed, along wi' an lm portent traffic junction west of Moscow and military objectives in Leningrad, a 2500-ton Brit ish vessel was sunk 250 miles west of Brest, and British mil itary emplacements were bomb ed in the Shetland islands. In North Africa German bombers assailed Tobruk two nights ago and struck again at tne suze roadstead, the high command said. So far aa Ger many and Britain themselves were directly concern edt the rival air forces were - inactive or only reconnaitering - last night. ' '- An implication of the Middle Eastern scope which Britain an ticipates in the war came from Prime Minister Churchill in a message read "before, the open ing session of the Indian national defense council at Simla. "... During 11)42 the armies of India, with their British com rades, will be fighting on a long front from the Caspian to the Nile," it said. The British commander In Itv dia, General Sir Archibald P, Wavell, who has just completed a tour of this link to the left flank of the Russians, read the message for Churchill. Italy's principal contribution to the day's war reports was an announcement relayed by the German radio that the British air craft carrier Ark Royal had been torpedoed by an Italian submarine "shortly after a re cent battle In the Mediterran ean."

From J j the boom times oi 1929 he had jto adjust to the uuii d u y e r s market of the past decade. And having barely learned to do so. an Austrian paper-hanger upsets the world and, behold, his mar- xei cnanges, demand becomes greater than supply and he is xorcea to learn a new technique 01 Dusiness operation Don't think that your local merchant isn't trying to eet von the goods you want or, failing that, to find SATISFACTORY suostituteB. Now, as never be fore, perhaps, he is earning your support. Because he knows that the substitutes for no-longer-available articles must be GOOD. The markets are full of gyp products and his is the job of winnowing the mass and choosing, for our local use, only those which will give lasting satisfaction. He is putting more thought and study and effort into his buying than ever before, to try to take care of your needs and furnish you adequate merchan dise. It is good Judgment to take full advantacc of his huvlno knowledge and of his under standing of values and to trade with him to a grea'ar extent man heretofore.

Last Wednesday morning Hopkins, to win a $50 bet and to draw attention to another planned aerial feat, dropped to the forbidding tower from an airplane. Ever since, a corps of climb ers, national park service of ficials and airplane pilots have labored to get him down safely a detail which Hopkins over looked before he leaped. "This started out as publicity stunt, but it backfired, then wildfired," said Earl Brockels- by of Rapid City, S. D.. who made the wager with Hopkins. 1 m worried about George."

By DeWITT MacKENZIE (Special News Service) There is food for reflection In the fact that Herr Hitler has even the most cynical observers guessing as to the significance of his tall claim last week that ho already .had Russia broken and that fresh operations of gl Kimtic dimensions (presumably the,pay-off) were nl progress. Apparently a suspicious world hasn't been sure whether the nail chief is Just trying out a piece of psychological propa ganda or whether ho really be lieves ho has the reds beaten. Having studied his works for lunii nine, ana navuig seen him in action at close rang one manv occasions, it strikes me thut It is unwise to poo-pooh his state ments without examination. even though they appear flam- ooyani 10 his critics. We would seem to have support for this view in the report from London today that the Germans have In deed launched a big scale offen sive along the Russian front. The information in England In dicates that the nazis are attack ing heavily along much of the 1100 milo front between the Bal tic and the Black seas. The pres sure is said to be particularly Intensive In the central sector opposite Moscow, and 011 the southern flank In the Ukraine, but Moscow reports that the In vaders are flinging themselves with unibttini fierceness against the defenses of Lenin. grad. From the mcaiire information availablo in London it appears that the nazis are making some progress in tneir assault. How ever, tho bolshcvists are said to be resisting stubbornly. So Hitler was right, though n on ancaa 01 events, when ho said big operations were coinmi.ni-. ing. He wasn't right when he said me Muscovites were crush ea, because they continue to put up me epic resistance wnich they admit has cost them 1,128,000 men in killed, wounded and missing since the start of this bloody conflict. What has the nazi leader In mind when he proclaims the Russian collapse? Hitler is a col ossal gambler and it's quite like ly he is gambling now that this new offensive of his may de liver the knockout blow to an admittedly hard-pressed foe. He figures the reds have been weak ened enough so that they may crack. That's always possible, and tho same thing might happen to the Germans. One lucky break may change the course of a war. The New York Yankees beat the Brooklyn Dodgers yes terday when a catcher dropped the ball on tho "final out" which would have given the game to the Dodgers. War is like that, too. r:&f f ;4 rj- v.w i'., t- Beneath an apartment house In Seattle, the city tint large bomb shelter ! nearing completion at shown In this picture.
