THE INVASION OF BRITAIN
AMERICANS PREDICT ATTACK SOON (Received June 21,.2 a.m.) NEW YORK, June 19. Large concentrations of German troops In Denmark and' Norway, combined with reports that the bulb of the Luftwaffe has been withdrawn far inland for mass training in new tactics, are looked upon in Washington as a certain indication that the long-awaited invasion of England is not far away. The massing of Nazi troops on the Russian border Is regarded more as a political than a military move and Washington is gloomily predicting that Russia will sign a treaty giving the Nazis enormous economic concessions. The Washington correspondent of the "New York Post” confidently believes that the next “blitz” will be directed against Ireland or Scotland. His information Is based on private information reaching Washington in the last 24 hours.
