SIMPSON Associated PXMC War Analyst Despite a news blackout on Tirst Army operations in the Bonn-Cologne sector on the Rhine which may cover an immediate American attempt to force a river crossing, tha center of gravity in the European war seemed defin- litely shifting from west to eait again.

It also indicates Russian selection of the most vulnerable sector of the Berlin seige perimeter for the initial effort to "breach the Oder line bscause of the flat lands lying west of the There is no natural obstacle of any consequence beyond'the Oder confronting the Russians except a few minor streams and the Steinbeck hills, a low cluster lying between Bad Frcienwalde and Strausberg. As usual Moscow Ignored the Berlin report.

It is not apt to say anything of there until objectives have been attained and consolidated; but the scene of action as outlined by the Nazis sufficiently indicates what that objective must be. There is ample elbow room west of the middle Oder for establishment of a wide and deep bridgehead iron which to launch the final march on Berlin from the east and northeast under more favorable terrain conditions than in an approach from the southeast across the Keisse- Oder line. Flanks Art Cleared With all central and western Pomerania cleared of the Nazi foe, Zhukov has nothing to fear on his right flank. On his left, Ukrainian armies have palled up abreast of the Oder front along the Neisse and are in position to widen the final attack perimeter three-fold if. they have not already struck.

And width of assault front is a vital element in Russian tactical deployment. The wider it is the thinner drawn must be the ranks of the dwindling'- German oppose it and the easier the achievement of a breakthrough to Berlin itself.

The town lies due north of Budapest on a through rail and road connection leading direct through Jablonka pass to the south'side of "the Moravian gap. through which Russian forces have been slowly edging Vienna from east. The Russian advance northward at that point in Slovakia; is the first definite indication from the south of an attempt to seal off the Nazi bulge eastward in the Carpathians.
