A near collapse was forecast for
German armies on the Eastern Front

with ever increasing strength.
If the reports can be relied upon the
Russians are now within sight of vic-
tory over the Germans. Some
quarters believed the Reds may atop
when they have pushed the Germans
off their soil and driven them out of
the Baltic states.
Little Finland was ahakan badly by
a request from Secretary of State
Cordell Hull that she get out of the
war or suffer consequences of con-
tinued collaboration with Germany.
Finland will be knocked out of the
war if the Germans are driven out of
the Baltic.

of panic Thursday. If unchecked
victory will come quickly on the
Eastern front.

Rog has been taken by the Red Army.
