12 Says Spain And West Africa To Be in War U.S. Assistant War Secretary Says Huns Have 300 Divisions JACKSON. Midu Sept 19 John J. McCloy, assistant United States Secretary of War, declared here today that the Germans have 300 divisions totalling 9.000,000 to 10,000,000 men under arms and that perhaps 100 ot these are yet to be thrown into the battle of Russia. In a speech prepared for a meeting of the Michigan Bar Association.

McCloy said it was probable that hostilities 7 would "spread to the. Mediterranean area. Spain and North and West Africa. McCloy 's figures on German strength apparently represented the latest United States estimates made with full weight given to losses in the Russian campaign and compared with earlier estimates of 240 Nazi divisions and with Russian reports that the Germans were being compelled to call in divisions from occupied countries all over Europe. Germany, he said, "has 300 divisions under arms nine to 10 million men: England has only a fraction of that number: we have 33 and a cavalry brigade.

Germany's Air Force alone is as large as our entire army." "It is estimated that perhaps 100 of its divisions have yet to be engaged in McCloy continued. "The tanks and airplanes which Germany can muster ritri any one day exceed all the tanks and 'plane which were engaged in all of the last war on all sides. With these, weapons.

The source said that despite Germany's pre-occupation with Russia the number of Nazi submarines operating against the British in the Atlantic in the last 'two or three months has been increased. Nevertheless, he added, British losses are steadily dropping and "the for August were very encouraging." he said, "brought varied results. However, again they have not been overbad." The source cautioned, howeverj that these results do not mean necessarily a permanent reduction in British losses.

Take Heavy Axis Toll. He reported that British 'planes and submarines continue to take a heavy toll of Axis traffic in the Mediterranean and said that the Germans are trying to persuade the Turks to allow Axis warships to transit the Dardanelles to the Black Sea.

WOVEN SHIRTS with Original "Windsor Collar su, S2-00 Russian Front At a Glance By The British United Press.

with the Russo-Ger- man war in its -13th-week, authoritative London sources see the position in Russia as follows: Germans have pierced the outer defences of Kiev and four Russian armies reported encircled in the Ukraine. Leningrad is In a very pre- carious situation as is the" Russian Baltic Fleet. The city may hold out for weeks or even months and exact very heavy toll in killed and wounded, in exchange for a heavy price in Russian life and suffering. I The Germans have been stopped dead on the central front for the last two weeks and in fact have been on the defensive in face of Russian counter-attacks. JBut there-was every indication that the Germans were content to remain on the defensive here-while their two wings struck with maximum force at Leningrad and the Ukraine.

Vigorous as the Russian attacks have been, informants said, they have made only slow headway and have not embarrassed the Germans strategically. In the south the Germans threaten to overrun the Donets and Don Basins and slice another great chunk off Russia's war industry. The attacks of the Russian central army have not affected them. The present attacks may bring the Germans to the foothills of the Caucasus with the oil fields just beyond. Capture of the Crimea would give the Germans a stepping-stone toward the Caucasus.

There are many indications that the Germans i- based in Rumania and Bulgaria are earmarked either for a land, sea and air attack on the Crimea or for an attack on Turkey. Ottawa Gunners Ready for Service Many members of the four batteries of the 1st Field Brigade, Royal Canadian Artillery, Reserve Force, have expressed their willingness to join the 1st Light Anti-Aircraft Battery now being formed here for the 4th Division. -Word to commence active recruiting of almost 300 men is being awaited from Kingston.

Bombs Continued from Page One. The iron and steel works north of Ijmutfen harbor in Holland suffered serious damage during several powerful It was estimated that production in the works dropped 33 percent, after war buildings were damaged badly and much devastation was caused among blast furnaces. The harbor at Rotterdam, terminus of coastal' shipping, has suffered immensely from day and night raids.

Reconnaissance 'planes photographed a ship, of about 9,000 tons lying on its side in shallow water at the quay west of Wilton's shipbuilding yards. The engine shops and assembly hall in the yards also showed signs of direct hits. A huge hole yawned in a high structure and the effect of blasts on the buildings was pbvious. Nearby, a long warehouse had been ravaged by fire. In France, the news service said, reports been received summarizing heavy damage inflicted by accurate bombing of mines and power plants.

During August it was reported that only half the pitheads at Leuz were operating and that the pitheads at Moules were forced to abandon work for 12 days. During an attack on the steel works at Fives, near Lille, the record office was destroyed and the workshops, boiler house and administrative offices were damaged: Railway sidings and storage tanks at Gosnay were bombed effectivelywhile at Chocques the Kuhlman chemical works were put out of commission for a time. Bombs also were dropped among partially-built U-boats and sur face ships at Le Trait as well -as. the power station, boiler house, pump house and water installations at Comines. Royal Air Force bombers dropped heavy on docks at Le Havre, German-occupied French coast port, during the night, the Air inistry said today.

All 'planes returned safely. In extended operations yesterday, British bombers and fighter 'planes sank two Nazi minesweepers and two anti-aircraft ships and damaged four other vessels off the Belgian and Netherlands coasts. In another raid, bombers scored direct hits on a power station at Rouen in German-occupied France, despite heavy fire from ground batteries. Fast three-man Blenheim- bombers made the attacks on the shipping and on Rouen. Stiff opposition was encountered from Nazi 'planes Thursday and the whine of aerial dogfights was heard along the British coast.

The R.A.F. destroyed 18 'planes and lost 11, including two bombers. Two British fighter pilots were rescued, after their 'planes crashed. Former Ottawa Man Dies of Injuries From Collision MONTREAL. Sept.

THE OTTAWA JOURNAL FRIQAY. SEPTEMBER 13. 191U Fatal Aerial Crash I 1 Xs 7 Si T- x--r: rS-" i r. 5 a- "in ir ''f-tn r-imm' I iyhimmmii 'i i.in-y-d i An Army pursuit ship, careening upward and a "portion of its shattered tail falling, has just collided with the Navy dive bomber behind it and is about to start a plunge that caused the death of Lt.

The 'planes were in opposing forces in current Army manoeuvres at Coushatta, La. Those in the Navy 'plane escaped with their lives. Some Civil Servants Continued from Page One. This is the same procedure the Government intended to take in all centres where staggered hours were a necessity, Mr Lynch said. While there was authority to issue definite instructions to employers as to when they are to open and close their offices, stores, he hoped the staggered hour plan could be put into effect here without resorting to the authority vested in his office.

He was confident all parties interested in Ottawa would readily agree to the suggestions from the street railway company which will follow the survey. May Affect Stores. Majority of civil servants and office workers go to work at 9 a.m. and are through at 5 Majority of uptown stores open at 9 a.m. and close at 6 p.m., giving office workers an hour to do their shopping between five and six o'clock.

With staggered hours tor office workers it might be necessary to change the hours in which stores are open. "There la no question about It, staggered hours are a necessity In Ottawa Mr. Lynch told The Journal. He said there were three mala purposes behind the plan of staggered hours. The first was to conserve the use of electrical power used by transit companies by 'spreading out their peak periods.

The sec- ond was to avoid the necessity ot these companies purchasing additional equipment. This also would aid In con-serving foreign exchange since much of the equipment had to be purchased in the United States. The third pur pose was to relieve traffic congestion. "Even in normal times, staggered hours would merit Mr. Lynch said.

Problem of Companies. Under the present system of most workers going to and from their offices at the same time, the transit companies had great difficulty in handling the traffic. Just before and immediately after these brief periods trams and buses carried little traffic. By staggering the more passengers could be carried on fewer ears. Mr.

Lynch said that without atactered hours, the present dlffl cult situation In Ottawa would be come much more acute this Winter. It has been generally agreed that more persons will be patting sway their automobiles for the Winter months than In previous years and the number of workers has been steadily Increasing. In addition to the present restrictions on the sale of gasoline which would mean many motorists putting away their cars there was the possibility that gasoline would be rationed. Situation In Washington Mr. Lynch told this morning's conference of how staggered hours was working out In Washington, where it -was put into effect in March of this year.

There it affected the hours of 73,000 of the 160,000 Government workers. The hours in which employes reported were altered for 21 of the 44 de partments. In Washington, Government em ployes report or work at 15-muv ute intervals from 7.30 ajn. until 9.13 a.m. The closing times also are spaced at 15-minute intervals, from 3.30 to five clock.

May Not Adopt. 7.30 Time. Pending the survey, it waa difficult to say exactly what time office workers would start work here in the mornings, but it was not likely the 7.30 time adopted in Washington would have to be made effective for Ottawa. Mr. Lynch said that before staggered hours were put Into effect In Washington.

73,000 persons reported for work at 9 a.m. Now the largest number reporting at one time was 30,000 at 8.15 a.m. At 9 a.m.. 23,000 report Under staggered hours, early closing of offices in Summer months Is eliminated. "The experience with staggered hours in Washington has been most gratifying.

It facilitates the movement of transit vehicles, as well as those of all other types. It makes possible, the rendering of a more attractive and complete service by the transit companies. and it also makes it possible for transit companies to carry additional traffic without purchasing more the Transit Controller said. in U.S. Manoeuvres T.
