Axis Invasion Of Turkey
(Received September 12, 11,40 p.m.)/ LPNPON. September 12.
A message from Rome hints at the possibility of an invasion of Turkey by the Axis. This is stated by the Geneva correspondent of the “Daily Mail,” who says the message was passed by the Italian censor. It adds that the Russian resistance was as great a surprise to the Germans as to the rest of the world and that their terrific effort will necessitate along pause throughout the winter. Transport of petrol has proved infinitely more difficult for the Germans across Russia than across any other part of the front. The only alternative is a new drive across Turkey. The Italians jpust guard against any illusion of an early end to the eastern war, concludes the Rome message.
