The Finnish advance in Northern Finland
continues. The Germans try to retake Tornio
on the Gulf of Bothnia and are using artillery
and dive bombers against the Finns.
The Finns had to give up some ground.
In the recently bombed Dortmund - Ems canal
33 barges barges lying on the bottom have been
counted. Naval carrier borne aircraft
now use rockets to take off with little wind
with greater speed and heavier loads.
Goebbels announced party restrictions.
Certain Nazi papers will be suspended.
The Russians crosses the Hungarian
frontier in their advance from Arad and
have captured 100 places on Hungarian
soil. A court of French Generals will try
Marshall Petain together with 54
members of the French Government.
Petain will be charged with treason and
collaboration. Paul Winterton reported
from Moscow on German atrocities
he saw in Estonia. A special
correspondent of the Times has
written about German looting in
Florence where o.a. pictures of Dürer,
Rembrandt and van Dyck have gone.
Mr. Winston Churchill intervened
