Admission that Germany ex-b- e pects the Russian campaign to continue well into 1942 was contained in an article by Col. Scherff predicting that German troops would stand the Russian winter better than the Russians themselves The coming spring wall show further that deepness of area also has dark aspects for Col. Scherff the defender, wrote in the Nachtausgabe. The article said that in order to make success contestable for us the bolshevik rulers this winter must be in position to mobilize new millions, lead them against a broad wall of our eastern front and then storm this (front) which shows no holes and no weak points. But the area from which the hits must emanate is poorer rather than better organized than that we have gained by fighting. A high command communique paid tribute to Italian troops who, it said, destroyed fairly large soviet forces east of the Dnieper river on the southern front capturing several thousand prisoners. DNB, the official news agency, credited Rumanian fighting planes with shooting down four soviet fighting planes on the southern front yesterday, and claimed that the Rumanians suffered no losses. In the far north, the Finns were said to have shot down 18 soviet planes but Finnish losses were not mentioned.

ROOD VICTIM HELD IN TREE MODIFIED SOON GET FORTUNE Roosevelt Prepares To Ask Congress To Change Law IN JEWELS Use Clever Ruse To WASHINGTON, Sept. 30 (UP) President Roosevelt, ing to request congressional modification of the neutrality act, today reaffirmed his determination to protect American war supplies en route to Great Britain and her allies. Protection of American defense materials for Britain is important not only from the standpoint of the people who are doing the actual fighting, but from the viewpoint of defense of the Americas-- he told his press conference. Mr. Roosevelt cited statistics of the cargo lost in the sinking Sept. 19 of the U. S. government owned Pink Star to support his contention. The Pink Star, flying the Panamanian flag, was en route to the United Kingdom when she was torpedoed and sunk in Icelandic waters, presumably by a Ger- Gain Entrance to Jewelry Store HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 30 (UP) An exclusive jewelry com- pany, which carries a fortune in gems for its movie colony patrons, today was robbed of an estimated $50,000 in precious stones by three men who gained entrance through a rear door. The robbery was perpetrated less than two weeks after the Flato Jewelry company had returned to New York the Jonlcers diafamed mond after having kept the $500,000 stone in its vault for some time. The bandits waited at the rear of the jewel house until a messenger boy, George Mueller, 20, delivered a package there and the door was unlocked by Irving Dobry. The youth and Dobry were overpowered by the three men who then held up Manager E. F. Garner and four other employes and bound them. The bandits then swung open the unlocked safe and carefully went over the jewels kept there, taking only diamonds and other precious stones. They departed through the rear entrance and drove off in a large red sedan which was waiting with the motor running The bandits were described to police as Americans between the ages of 30 and 35. All were armed and one wore a white handkerchief mask. The robbery was the second large-scalhaul made by bandits in the Hollywood area within ten days. Five masked men removed nearly $100,000 worth of furs from Gailband and Cohen, wholesale fur company, by holding up and trussing the employes, putting the furs in laundry bags. 726-car- man submarine.

The Russian news agency says further that 43,000 German troops have been sent to former Jugoslav territory to quell disturbances. Meanwhile, the German air force has been on the wing, giving two English coast towns sharp raids tonight. The German attacks presumably were in retaliation for heavy British raids on Stettin and Hamburg last night. The British attack on Stettin, 80 miles beyond Berlin, was aimed at relieving German pressure on Leningrad by hammering the nazi supply route to north Russia. Between 200 and 300 bombers took part in the raid. It marked the second night4in a row that British war places had flown more than 1000 miles to strike at the enemy.
