About Leningrad
And Odessa Claimed
A German offensive threat to
the Donet- industrial basin
the Axis military machine and
gained momentum Wednesday
but both the Red army and the
Royal Air Force struck back at
resistance mounted in Nazi-oc-
cupied areas of Europe.
A threat by the Germans to
bomb the former Yugoslavia
capital of Belgrade—wrecked
by high explosives in the first
blitz attack—was reported by
the British exchange telegraph
news agency as a result of
spreading resistance, while dis-
patches from Istanbul said that
heavy losses in the invasion of
Russia and the threat of great
suffering this winter had caus-
ed grave unrest in Rumania.
The outcome of these poten-
tial revolt movements as well
as of Japanese activities in the
Far East probably will be de-
cided by the success or failure
of the current Nazi offensive
against Kharkov and the Uk-
raine industrial centers.
Shanghai sources received re-
liable reports from Tokyo that
the .Japanese cabinet of Pre-
mier Fumimaro Konoye was
facing an early crisis because of
failure to make any progress in
efforts to reach an agreement
See .lap Story on Page 6
with the United States on Paci-
fic problems. As a result, Japa-
nese army extremists were said
to be threatening "positive ac-
tion" and Japanese military
movements continued both to-
ward the south and northward
toward Siberia, where Tokyo
would be expected to strike if
the Russians collapsed under the
German invasion.
The dispatches, summarizing
army compilations, claimed that
the Germans had suffered 100.-
000 casualties on the southern
and southwestern sectors of the
Leningrad front alone, and thaf
the Rumanians had lost 160.000
iiien in ti,i*ir attack ou the B.ack.
Sea port of Odessa.
In addition to do t ruction of
the ninth German division, cap''
ture of more than 100 machines
and considerable booty wa re-
ported in the southwestern
front operation.
A Leningrad dispatch to the
army newspaper Red Star as-
serted that the Germans also
had lost 400 tanks, 200 field guns
and 846 planes in the southern
and southwestern sectors of the
Soviet second city with full re-
ports still to come.
