(Theophile Gautier was sunk by the British Submarine HMS Talisman.)

(Not true, but an Italian submarine, Diaspro, which were seen, but failed to hit any ships.)

(I am reasonably sure that this report is false. SS-Obergruppenführer Reinhard Heydrich was one of the most feared men the Third Reich and nobody but Hitler and Himmler were in a position to give him orders.)

(The 873-ton cargo ship Sturdee Rose credited with shooting down a German bomber. This ship survived the war, but capsized and sank on Nov. 16, 1945 off Trevose Head.)

(The unidentified U-boat was U-570. It was on its first war patrol, was forced to the surface and surrendered. It was towed into port and commissioned into the Royal Navy as HMS Graph. Used by the RN for testing, it was wrecked Mar. 20, 1944 and abandoned.)

(Maybe the first report about possible war crimes trials after the war. This report may have been referring to a memorandum from the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Anthony Eden, M.P. dated Oct. 5, 1941.)

(General Alois Eliás was the Nazi puppet Prime Minister of Bohemia and Moravia. He was arrested for anti-Nazi activity on Sept. 27, 1941. He was convicted and sentenced to death by the Germans. He was executed on June 19, 1942.)

(George Hopkins finally rescued from Devil's Tower.)

(As the late, great Paul Harvey would say; "Here is a strange." The State of Colorado decrees that all horses on highways at night must have tail lights. Maybe not as strange as one would think, the British tried this as early as 1939.)

(Harry Bridges, regional leader of the California CIO union, went on the record against the national CIO union policy of banning communists, Nazis and Fascists from holding union office. The California CIA union, apparently in favor of totalitarians of all stripes holding office in their union.)

(Leningrad's hopeless situation.)

(You push the truth in vain.)

(Helplessness and anger in the enemy camp.)

Historical note: On this day a memo was sent by Generaloberst Alfred Jodl, on behalf of Adolf Hitler to the Army High Command.

The Führer has again decided that a capitulation of Leningrad or later Moscow is not to be accepted even if offered by the enemy.

The moral justification for this measure is clear to the whole world. Just as in Kiev our troops were subject to extreme danger through explosions with time-fuses, the same must be expected to a still greater degree in Moscow and Leningrad. The Soviet radio itself has broadcast that the foundations of Leningrad are mines and the city armed to the last man.

Extreme danger of epidemics is to be expected.

Therefore no German soldier is to enter these cities. Anyone who tries to leave the city through our lines is to b e forced to return under fire.

The exodus of the population through the smaller, unguarded gaps towards the interior of Russia is to be allowed. Before all other cities are taken, they are to be softened up by artillery fire and air raids and their population forced to flee.

We cannot take the responsibility of endangering out soldiers' lives by fire in order to save Russian cities, nor that of feeding the population of these cities at the expense of the German homeland.

The chaos in Russia will be all the greater, our administration and utilization of the occupied Eastern territories all the simpler the more the population of the cities of Soviet Russia flees to the interior of the country.

All commanding officers must be acquainted with this desire of the Führer.
