Always read the classified odi

Tho correspondent of tho Sven
ska Dughludut said mining oper
ations were planned for Immedi
ately after tho first Invasion
wavo set forth and that Field
Marshal General Hugo Spcrrle,
ono of Germany's top air com
ma riders, would direct tho mlne
liiying maneuver In a "finish
fight,"
This presentation of the pur
ported anti-invasion plans of the
nazls aroused speculation here as
to tho motive.
Four cluys ago German mili
tary quarters were quoted by the
Swedish press as saying they
were wutehlng for allied blows
nnnln.it Belgium, northern
France, southern Franco, Italy
and tho Balkans, und that they
counted upon a submarine fleet
to break up the Invasion forcos.
In those accounts the Germans
gnvo a detailed description of
what the ullled Invasion probably
would bo like and said they ex
pected only 13,000 of the first
80,000 men would reach shore.
(Several paragraphs of this dis
patch at this point were eliml-
nntcd by censors In London.)
Some Berlin circles, the Svcn-
ska Dugbludct said, also were
discussing the possibility of
limited German invasion of Brit
ain, timed with German counter-
invasion mlnelaylng.
