Simpson, Associated Press War Analyst The dazzling speed that marked earlier phases of the Allied invasion of Sicily was less evident a.s tho first week of the operation neared its end; but the whole IOU-mile Allied front from Naro in the west to north of Augusta in the east still was in forward motion. The steel-tipped jaws of the Anglo-Canadian andUnited States forces formed a huge vise set to bite down ori the southern "efences of the Catania plain. Canadian, British and American troops, meantime, main- tained unrelenting pressure against the centre of the plain. Axis commanders. apparently now aware of the tactical pattern of the attack. are uttlng up an increasingly stiff fight-particulari . ac- gtifillélg‘ to offic al reports, against the far-ranging jaws of the casing e rap. Yet the very nature of the defence they attempted testified to the success of the Allied strategic design. The initiative still lay with the Allied iuvadcrs- They had obviously forced the enemy to sca tcr his re- serves on mnny fronts and denied him opportunity to mass and mount o. concentrated counter bluw anywhere as this was written. The Axis in Sicily thus far has been out-guessed 11s well as out- fought. And unless the crunching jaws of the Allied vise can be soon s10]!- pcd short of deployment simultaneously into the Catania plain from ‘castdand west, that strategic key to control of all Sicily must fall to the lIlVfl BIS. The hubs of Sicily's road and rail networks are in that rolling valley south of gigantic Mount Etna. The main Axis air fields. munitions and fuel stocks and supply reserves are there by every indication. Yet to a- voiil that trnp without dangerously weakening the wide centre sector now under Allied pressure along every road and rail route leading in from the soutli and cast coasts poses a major problem for the defenders. The Axis is being forced to fight dispersed preliminary actions in a dozen tiieatcncd sectors at the same time. Allicd litivancc prongs and lighter troops range perilously close along its whole length to the sec- ondary oust-west road and rail system so vital to successful deployment of troops and nrmor to man the hill bastions guarding the centre of the Catnnia, plain. sidents in many sections of New Brunswick wcic shocked to learn of, the sudden death licre oi Alfred Roy. for 24 years edltor-in-chicf ofl L/ylivnngeliiie and his assistant J.‘ Thcrnus LcBlanc.
