for the Allied forces are tearing across Western force and indicates that the Kremlin is fully aware; that whoever is against one member of the partner.ship must be considered against the whole organization, with the consequence that the definite move was made to speed the exit of Bulgaria from the war, Coming on top of the Finnish and Romanian defalcation of the past week, the Soviet declaration must aggravate the German situation.Not only does it remove a safe haven for German troops and war materials, but it will permit the Russians to extend their drive through the Balkans and consolidate their newly-won positions.It means the further contraction of the German conquests and brings the war nearer the Nazi homeland on all fronts.There are also certain other implications in the latest developments.The declaration of war against Bulgaria indicates that possibly a similar action may be taken against Japan in the immediate future, especially when the steadily-deteriorating military position of the Reich is considered.In fact, unofficial although undenied reports coming out of Moscow say that the grudge battle of the century is shaping up rapidly and that before a week elapses, the Russian bear may make an effort to get even with the Nipponese for the humiliating defeat at Fort Arthur forty years ago.LEND-LEASE AID FROM BRITAIN The extent to which the Lend-Lease programme is a two-way affair is well illustrated in the recent report which President Roosevelt submitted to the United States Congress showing that the entire output of the British sheet-steel rolling industry' was taken for three months to waterproof hundreds of American and British wading trucks and other mechanized equipment used in the invasion of Western Europe.In giving details of the reverse lend-lease, the report said that \"one of the biggest last-minute rush jobs done for us by the British\u201d was the water- Europe so rapidly that the official reports issued by General Eisenhower\u2019s headquarters have been as much as forty-eight hours behind the advancing armies because of security reasons.That may seem something of a fantastic excuse, but when operations are in such a lluid state there are many times when the Allies do not know the location of the fast-moving columns, This of course means that the Allies are continuing to roll up one of the great victories of military history.The conditions are so extraordinary, however, that there is danger of one getting a distorted idea of just what is happening.We are not having to battle our way forward, save in isolated instances.The'hour of Hitler\u2019s general withdrawal to his inner fortress, so far as concerns all Western i Europe, is at hand.And he has delayed so long, in his futile effort to throw back the invasion, that disaster rides on his shoulders like the old man of the sea.The Allied forces are having a field day \u2014 pouring death, destruction and havoc onto the retreating Germans.Ground forces also are killing and capturing many contingents of enemy troops, and it is estimated that there are 100,000 Hitlerites trapped on the Pas de Calais coast just across from England.The Siegfried Line probably can be breached, strong as it is, by employment of air power and massed artillery.In this connection, it is worthy of note that British and Canadian troops have just broken the Gothic Line in Italy and this was regarded as the strongest defence line outside the German frontiers.But it may not he necessary to smash the Siegfried line.The Allies have a big army of airborne troops looking for trouble, and it may be that they will be used to knock the line out from the rear.In any event, the Siegfried defences do not TRAINING OF A NAZI CHILD St.Thomas Times-Journal The battle to eject the Germans from Poland stirs the heart of every ; Pole in the country, who, according 11( one of them who escaped not [long ago and told his story in Mos-jeow, hates every German on Polish1 soil.Probably the Poles literally and truly hate all Germans, and they have reason to do so.It is now established that the Germans had \u201cmass murder\u201d factories, but there are also minor ways which have engendered this Polish hatred.The refugee told how he was walking along a street one day when he saw a small German boy, about seven years old, accompanied by his mother, kicking an old man and saying: \u201cYou Polish swine.\u201d A j younger woman who was with the j man was trying to keep him from I striking the little hooligan.\u2018\u2018For !
