The tempo of the air war against
Germany is RISING.
WfATCH Orel.
As these words are written,
it Is still in German hands, but
the Russians are steadily tight
ening their grip on it. It may
fall any day any hour, for that
matter. Its ultimate fall seems
certain.
Because the Germans have
fought fiercely and suffered
staggering losses to hold it, its
fall will be a hard jolt for them.
The more hard Jolts the Ger
mans get, the sooner they'll
crack. - -
,
AND keep your eye on Turkey.
Turkey has so far sat tight
and stayed out of it. It is un
likely that she will continue to
stay out. It is even a little un
likely that she WANTS to.
Turkey will want to retain
control of the Dardanelles.
What chance will she have if
she sits tight all the way through,
the war. and does nothing to help
ANYBODY?
AND watch the Balkans. The
end of the other war started
there, and it isn't too unlikely
that history may repeat itself.

BREACHED BY
ALUEDPOWEn
' (Continued From Page One)
Jr.'s seventh army was advanc
ing beyond the strategic prise of
Nicosia and exploiting the break
through made In temporary nail
positions.
Menace Regalbuto
Canadians who captured Agira
to the southeast, central pivot
of the ML Etna line, were men
acing Regalbuto, six miles to the
east, and facing another bitter
struggle.
Allied air power struck re
peatedly in heavy new blows to
shatter port facilities at Messina
and Milazzo in Sicily and
ranged over Italy to blast air
ports near Rome and Naples.
Probe Catania
The British eighth army con
tinued its probing patrols into
the powerful German defenses
below Catania, the communique
said.
(A British broadcast recorded
by CBS in New York said U. S.
troops already were "battering
the main enemy defenses on the
outskirts of San Stefano," north
ern coastal anchor of the Mt.
Etna defenses.
(The Italians declared that
their motor torpedo boats "in
waters east of the island repulsed
threats carried out by enemy
E-boats against Italian convoys,"
but did not indicate whether the
convoys were rushing reinforce
ments to Sicily or pulling troops
out of the island.)
Still Stymied
Still stymied by wide mine
fields and dominant enemy gun
positions on the lower slopes of
Mt. Etna, the eighth army fought
a number of small engagements
with forces of the Goering di
vision and elite nazi parachute
troops battalions. These were
successful, the communique said.
ine bulletin s terseness could
not hide the fact that the cli
mactic struggle of the campaign
was in progress, with the Amer
icans capitalizing their strategic
positions on the weakest sector
of the German line.
Scale Ridgea
The veteran U. S. fighters
scaled three 1000-foot ridges in
tropical heat and outflanked Ger
man . batteries by circuitous
mountain routes, exerting re
lentless pressure on the hastily-
enirencnea enemy.
General Patton's orders to
"keep striking" were carried out
to the limit by bayonet-wielding
infantry and skilled crews of
mechanized field guns as they
surged forward across terrain
that in other circumstances might
nave been an impregnable de
fensive line.
Allied torpedo aircraft sank
a merchant ship and left two
naval vessels afire as they inter
cepted axis attempts to reinforce
their hard-pressed forces.
