The “Aftonbladet” says the German occupation of the Aaland Isles is probable as a result of a Finnish peace move. The Stockholm correspondent of “The Times” says that reliable reports indicate that the Germans are withdrawing their forces from south Finland, as they realize their inability to keep the Finns iu the war.
