therc is a “real danger of a second front in Western Europe" and Axis armies are preparing for the great- est mass effort on both the African and Russian fronts since the attack on Russia, a. year ago. neutral advic- es from Berlin said tonight. Berlin military spokesmen who a few weeks ago spoke in terms of limited battles like those of Kerch and Kharkov now talk of an attack

was said.

Believing herself safe against the second front in Western Europe. these reports added, Germany will direct her main effort against the "unbelieably immense stocks of men and material" in Russia.

The strongest reason for the Ger- man readiness to gamble against a second European front is the appar- cnt conviction that submarine war- fare will prevent. the mass shipping concentration necessarv for such a. move, it was said.

Weighing the factors of food. raw materials available to Germany. transport difficulties and the effect of the RAF, raids on German in- dusiry. the general conclusion among foreign di lomatic and in- formed neutral o servers was 1e- portcd to be that Germany is able to wage another year of war.

Premier King Will Attend Session Today

important Questions Ex- pected To Be Discuss- ed.

(By J. F. Sanderson) (Canadian Press Staff Writer) VWA-zlki-INGTON. June 24—(CP)—

Prime Minister Mackenzie King will attend a special meeting of the Pa- cific war council here tomorrow at which President Roosevelt. and Prime Minister Churchill are ex- pected to outline some of the ma- JO!‘ decisions they have made in the last few days on the grand strategy of the war.

Tfne Canadian Prime Minister will arrive here a few hours before the meeting opens in the White House. In addition to attending the war Council meeting, he will confer sep- arately with President Roosevel and Prime Minister Churchill. It was not known here how long he will stay in Washington. Mr. Mac- kenzie King leit Ottawa last night.

The President also called Con- gressional leaders to the White House tomorrow for a confcience with Mr. Churchill. Some. legislators predicted this would be resolved in- to a. searching review of the war

situ ti , An inkling of the tenor of the Churchill-Roosevelt conversations

may be given to the Congressional group. expected to include Vice President Henry Wallace, Speaker Sam Rayburn, the majority and minority leaders of both Houses and the chairmen of the foreign rela- tions committees.

There were reports also that some members of the Congressional rout: desired to question Mr. Church ll. if the o portunlty arose, about the part iitain expects to play and the amount of American aid which would be needed in the establish- ment of any second front the Unit- ed Natlons may attempt to set up.

In announcing the special meet- ing of the war council, White House Secretary not disclose why it was being held but it was assumed that it was call- ed to give Mr. Churchill an oppor- tunity to review the war on an all- front basis and to hear from mem- bers of the council problems relating to the Pacific battle zone.
