river Desna, captured three
towns on the west bank and
was now fighting for the town
of Novgorod Seversky, 100 miles
southeast of cornel.
This drive, breaking an lnv
portent German defense line,
appeared headed, to ward Gomel,
rather than Bryansk, 95 miles
northeast.
. The fall of Chaplino marked
a racing 80-mile advance in two
days since the capture of Stal
ino and threatened to trap the
retreating nazis to the north and
the south by cutting the roads
to Dnieper-Opetrovsk and Xa
porozhe only bridges over the
lower Dnieper.
Mariupol's capture returns to
Russian hands all of the three
great ports on the Sea of Arov
Mariupol, Rostov and Tagan
rog. '. The port and metallurgical
Industry center, only 100 miles
short of the railway to the
Crimea, fell as the result of an
amphibious and airborne oper
ation In which Russian seamen
and airmen landed west of the
town.
' The special order announcing
the wholesale gains, signed by
Premier Joseph Stalin, gave no
clue to the fate of the defense
forces, many of which likely
were trapped by this cut-off
maneuver.

have some sort of grip on it.
Yesterday's rumors that we are
landing there have not been
borne out in the news today.
TTiK Germans are said to have
seized (how FIRMLY doesn't
appear) the Dalmatian and Al
banian coasts on the east side of
the Adriatic. (These coasts are
the back door to the Balkans.)
There are reports from two
separate sources today that a
powerful allied convoy, protect
ed by warships, is steaming
through the Ionian sea into the
Adriatic to land an invasion force
before the Germans can get
firmly set there.
There's a fairly dependable re
port that we've landed another
invasion force at Taranto, the
naval base inside the heel of the
boot
(A part of the Italian fleet is
supposed to have been holed up
there.)
AS to the rest of the fleet, the
n air is full of wild stories.
A part of it is said to have
fled the base of La Spezia, below
Genoa, and to be raiding GER
MAN CONVOYS in the Ligurian
sea, above the island of Corsica.
The Germans claim to have in
flicted severe damage on the
fugitive Italian ships with their
bombers.
Other fugitive Italian war
ships are said to have shown up
at Gibraltar and surrendered to
us.
WTHAT would German convoys
be doing in the Ligurian
sea? Maybe reinforcing Corsica
and Sardinia. Or maybe TAK
ING OFF German garrisons.
nOMMEL is said to be In com
mand In northern Italy. What
ever Italians may have done
there, the Germans seem to be in
possession of the Brenner pass.
There are rumors that the
passes over the Alps into France
are held by Italians, who are
stopping troop trains. "
The Balkans are seething, but
no explosions are reported.
HITLER comes out of his hole
a - raAj.h tha aim
of which is that Germany is well
rid of Italy, which never was
much good to her anyway. (The
speech has the flavor of sour
grapes.)
ANY guess today has to be a
.wild duty but it certainly
looks like Germany has decided
to make a Tight for it in Italy.
Take a look at your map
Size up Italy's vastly long
coastline. Remember that we
have control of sea and air in
the Mediterranean, and seem to
be able to LAND wherever we
choose to make the attempt. We
have strong, well-equipped forces
all around the Mediterranean.
The Germans, if they elect to
fight for their lives in Italy,
will have high and rugged
mountains, with few and diffi
cult passes, IN THEIR REAR.
TyJAYBE, If our leaders were
choosing the place for a
showdown fight with Germany,
they MIGHT CHOOSE ITALY.

On the Italian front, capture

100 airline miles south of Rome,
appeared imminent as allied
headquarters announced that

hours earlier had crushed Ger

German counterattacks in the
Naples region.
Strong nazi forces were hurled
back in the immediate vicinity

ples on the Gulf of Salerno, and
the Americans and British troops
then pushed inland.
Berlin reported that a violent
sea-air battle was in progress off
the Italian west coast between
German bombers and a powerful
flotilla of Italian warships flee
ing to join the allies.
German Shipping Attacked '
A nazi broadcast said the Ital
ian naval formation "on Anglo
American orders was attacking
German shipping between Sar
dinia and Corsica," and asserted
that(German planes had sunk a
battleship and a cruiser.
"Another battleship, a cruiser
and a destroyer were severely
damaged by bomb hits," the
broadcast said.
The battle with this naval
formation is still in progress."
Heads Toward Allies
Radio Rome said three 35.000
ton Italian battleships, . along
with a flotilla of cruisers and de
stroyers, had left the naval base
at La Spezia on the northwest
Italian coast and were heading
toward allied ports.
Berlin had previously asserted
