The Russian Army mamtatns ccntmucus pressure cn the hard- fighting Finnish forces in the Kar- eilan Isthmus in an endeavor to capitalize on recent advances

The Red Army has everything to gain and nothing to lose by keepng up the pr sszr-c, P1'c tpect of the capure of Vi puri. cnce one of the chzef Fnzvsh citi:s but new abandoned and shattered by bcmb and sthell, is attractive in 1t elf. It would give the Communist propa- ganda organs s:mething to crow about and describe as a great vic- tory.

More important is the value of‘ keeping the small Fnrrsh Army constantly c-ccupled and pmveiiungf it from obtaining nced:d rest and reinforcement and from strergth- emlrv the defences oi its now po- sitions. ' t

Also important is the weather factor. S-piarrg is ccmzng sozn and t when he ice on the lakes, and rivers rrelts and the fozen land thaws tut movement will be difficult if nct impcszbfe fcr Sov- iet tanks and sup-ply truck‘,

The perzcd of the 11g break- up ls certain to bring 1t cits to a halt for a tzme at lea. . After the ground dries out there may be an-i other story although military au-I thcritie: familiar with the type of‘ country over whch the war is be- ing waged are inclined to the vzew - winter is the best time for offens- ive operatons.

‘The country is anvil-watered. Much of it is lc-w and marshy. Road-s are few and rand-bulking takes time, and much efiort. The new FLnnish defence line appears to follow u clicfn of lakes acrrss the isthmus and is shorter than the fortified line from which the Finns have been driven.
