The possibility that, Hitler might, be rebuffed in any demands on RllSSlB. ivns suggested in reports re. ceived by diplomatic quarters at Helsinki, Finland, Saturday night to the effect that Joseph Stalin 15 meeting strong army opposition in "is "German appeasement policy."

Those advices contended Stalin himself favoix additional conces- sions to Germany while the de- fence commissar, S. K. Timoshcn- ko. OppOSPS any such move.

London's Sunday newspapers de- voted extensive comment to the German-Russian position.

The Sunday Times’ diplomatic correspondent posed the question whether Hitler plans a swift. knock- out blow against Russia or whether he mrrely is running an elaborate bluff to get quickly and easily the oil and grain he needs.

on the Euphrates, to n. motorized column which moved in from Iraq.

With Brtiish Imperial and De Gaiillist forces now in contact with Vichy troops along the entire front in the southern part of the Levant states, the stage had been set for a great battle, if need be. for the capitals. Damascus and Beirut, and domination of the en- tire Vichy-controlled mandate.

The allied offensive today en- tered its second week, with the British and Free French command still shunning all-out assault. to take the two cities.

Aircraft of the fleet, air arm. the Royal Air Force command at. Cairo reported. torpedoed an enemy ves- sel near Beirut. British authorities have reserved the designation “enemy" for the Axis. refusing to apply it to their series with whom they are not at war.

Units of the British Mediterran- ean fleet have been on offensive patrol along the Lebanese coast since the allied attack from Pales- tine, ‘Plans-Jordan and Ira? started last. Sunday morning. A times they have shelled obstruc- tions to the advance toward Beirut in the coastal region.

The fleet operations proceeded as unmolested by Axis forces as the land campaign up to today when the R. A. F. announced that Ger- man bombers and a fighter escort had “approaclted" the British war- ships and immediately were taken on by an R. A. F. fighting force.

"Several hosti‘e fighters and one bomber were damaged," the R. A. F. said, giving no further details of the engagement. except that “aircraft of the fleet. air arm tor- pedoed an enemy vessel near Bel- ru ."

Whether these developments marked a full turn in the Axis attitude of letting Vichy fight her own battle in the Levant remained to be seen.

The R. A. F. also attacked hos- tile aircraft near Rayak, site of an important airdrome about. 30 miles east; of Beirut. which German warplanes were using recently en route to Iraq. several were re- ported damaged.

The Cairo high command, ll- conlc the week long in its com- munlques, said today that. "allied forces are now in contact along the whole front. with Vichy troops. Although progress yesterday was slower than on previous days. an additional penetration was made in the centre of the axis of our advance."

An authoritative source in Lon- don. elaborating on this, said Free French divisions. in the central sector of the southern front. had reached Jezzlne (also known as Jezzin or Casule Gezin) “and our advance continues northward."

This was a flanking of sfdon. on t-he coast. Jczzlne is just l0 miles east. and sllghry north of Sidon.

As for ‘Damascus. the London headquarters of the PR6 French announced that occupation "may, be expected short ."

"Skirmishing continues." said the Free French statement, "but signs are increasing of a weaken- ing in the Vichy resistance and entry into Damascus of Free French forces may be expected shortly."

The allies have declared their plurpmie is to take the capitals and

e rest of the mandate from Vichy with the least possible bloodshed.

Everything Ready for Big celebration

Arrangements were Plwiflw“? completed on Saturday for the

'.l‘orch Day Celebration which will be held tomorrow afternoon. Seat- ing and program committees have madeexcellent plans to cope with the large crowd expfllifld H"! P0111!- ing and poi-king arrangements have also been looked after.

No cars will be allowed to be, parked along the route of march after 4 p. m. and patrols will be on duty f0 ge- that. this regulation i! enforced. After the parade passes irt the main vain at the Exhibition Ground it will "bNfllI" about 0n-_ posit/e in the Grand Stand ticket office. the Military going through the "ate to the track accomnarfled lov the five lmnd- V'1"il# the fra- ternal societies, ‘Boy Scouts, Girl Guides and other units will march to the entrance between the mot bleacher and the main. Grand Stand.

Ushers who had previously seat-

take charge and show the different units to the parts of the Grand Stand alloted to them. Persons not forming part of the parade will be admit-ted to the Grounds as al- ways and to the Grand Stand and Bleachers through the Grand Stand Entrance. This system hi to prevent any confusion and none should stay away because of the belief that there will not be room-that idea is erroneous as there is seating no- commodatlon for over 7,000 people, and i500 more can be accommodat- ed in front of Grand Stand and Bleachers.
