Tuesday,
April
11,
1944
Eve
of
a
Crisis
.
.
.
The
situation
on
the
eastern
front
where
the
Russians
have
the
Germans
on
the
run
suggests
the
war
in
Europe
is
rapidly
approaching
a
climax.
Dramatic
changes
may
be
expected
within
a
very
short
time-changes
heralding
the
first
stage
of
the
disintegration
of
the
Nazi
State
in
Europe.
The
final
collapse
may
not
be
the
result
of
one
single
offensive
or
one
single
factor,
like
the
effects
of
air
war.
Nor
is
it
likely
that
the
end
will
come
simply
through
"unconditional
surrender"
by
the
German
Army
High
Command,
to
be
followed
by
military
occupation
of
Europe
in
accordance
with
a
plan
providing
special
demarcation
lines
for
the
individual
Allied
forces.
and
be
intensified
by
the
lack
of
an
inter-Allied
plan
for
postwar
Europe
and
by
the
individual
dealings
of
various
powers
with
Europe's
disintegrating
political
forces.
Recent
German
territorial
losses
in
southeastern
Russia4
reveal
the
firt
serious
disintegration
of
German
fichting
forces.
Recent
retreats
have
been
too
hurried,
and
have
caused
too
great
a
lengthening
of
Germany's
Eastern
front,
to
have
been
fully
in
accordance
with
a
predetermined
plan
of
withdrawal.
There
is
no
doubt
that
the
German
Army
orig-inallv
planned
a
strategic,
large-scale
withdrawal
in
Russia,
the
obiective
being
to
shorten
the
Eastern
front,
to
create
a
more
dynamic
political
situation
and
to
reduce
the
offensive
nower
of
the
Russians
by
stretrhinp-
their
suDDly
lines
tq
the
breaking
point.
Simultaneously,
the
defensive
powers
of
the
German
armies
should
theoritically
have
been
strenp-thened.
Now
the
Russians
have
broken
through
the
Dniester
line.
Germanv
has
about
lost
Bessarabia.
If
the
Germans
cannot
hold
the
Prut
line,
Rumania
will
be
lost,
the
Germans
will
be
reduced
to
fitrhtin"
on
their
emergency
oil
reserves
and
the
entire
Balkan
front
mav
disintegrate.
Russian
armies
now
concontrate
on
breaking
through
into
southern
Rumania,
skirting
the
Car
pathian
mountains
and
aiming
directly
toward
Bu
charest,
the
Danube
and
Czechoslovakia
This
strategy,
by
avoiding
a
direct
struggle
with
the
main
forces
of
the
German
Army
defending
the
German
borders,
would
avoid
the
fatal
experience
of
the
last
war,
when
the
Russian
armies
met
disaster
in
their
attempts
to
cross
the
Carpathian
Alps
or
to
enter
eastern
Prussia
through
Poland.
Stalin
at
that
time
was
opposed
to
the
Bolshevik
offensive
into
Poland
even
though
the
hope
for
a
German
proler
tarian
revolution
still
was
active
in
Moscow;
even
then
he
would
have
preferred
a
concentrated
attack
on
the
Russian
southern
front
where
now
the
Russian
armies
are
engaged
in
their
most
successful
offensives.
The
p'rogress
of
the
Russian
Army
vyjthin
the
next
few
weeks
will
reveal
whether
the
German
-
Army
can
temporarily
stabilize
its
Eastern
front.
The
German
armies
may
still
be
able
to
call
up
re
serves
and
base
a
strong
defence
on
their
shorter
supply
lines.
Meanwhile,
the
mam
Russian
forces
now
stand
at
the
gates
of
the
Balkans.

In

.
There
are
five

the
administration
Is
pressing
for
their
number
to
be
increased
so
that
they
can

in

scheme.
A
further
handicap
is
the
fact
that
most
African

have
no
school
committees
such
as
those
which
have
helped
to
create
the
