Menemenjoglu, Secretary-General of the Turkish Foreign Office.

Articles For Exchange Determining pimciples are that the exchanges must be effectivepresumably in that Slate must have priority. One agreed list of 55,000,000 Turkish pouods, covers the delivery from Germany of war materials, iroa and steel products, machines, locomotive equipment, pharmaceutical paper and cullulose, and from Turkey olive oil, mohair, cotton, oil seeds, opium, hides, hemp, tanning extracts, flax, condensed milk, beans and peas.

The Italian occupation troops also hard-pressed, coT enng in a few fortified towns, and the Italian Fleet is shelling the Yugoslav coastline. EAST COAST BOMBS During the night there was slight enemy activity over the east coast of England. Bombs were dropped at a few points and some damage was caused, but there were no casualties.

It would not appear, however, that the Germans have made any very advances during the last 24 hours, it was stated authoritative quarters in London to-day, though they are attempting as hard as they can to obtain a decision in the immediate future. There is no reason to think that the Russians defending Moecow are not well supplied with equipment and it is known that they are sending up reinforcements. Soviet communique says: Our troops continued to tight along the whole front. Fighting was particularly intense in the western direction. The Germans continued to throw fresh units into the The Carmans claim that fighting is going on at several points on the outer defence line of the Soviet capital, some IQQ kilometres in front of Moscow, and that Kaluga and Kalinin, 100 miles south-west and north-west respectively of Moscow, hive been in our hands for The Rumanians claim to have broken through the defence lines of Odessa and say the Russians are retreating along the whole front.

Odessa is in flames, they say, and fighting is continuing. There is no information in London that the situation at Odessa has undergone any change. AIR OFFENSIVE IN i THE WEST IJOMBER COMMAND planes were over Western Germany last night. was no improvement in the weather, but objectives in the Cologne area were attacked. Bombs were also dropped on the docks at Boulogne.

Availing himself of his numerical superiority, the enemy has Increased his pressure on and is now nearing the approaches to Reserves at the disposal of the Soviet Union are enormous. The enemy has temporarily seized important regions of our Fatherland, but we have many other centres of war industry which are of the greatest importance.

IN OTHER SECTORS It seems possible, says a London authorised statement, that the thrust through Rhzev, towards Kalinin, has made further progress, and that a German advance is taking place from the direction of Orel towards Kaluga. The German drive towards Kharkov, in the Southern Sector, continues to meet with stubborn resistance, and does pot appear to have made any further appreciable progress. North of the Sett of Azov the situation appears to be substantially unaltered. There Is no further news from the Perekop Isthmus, Leningrad, or the Murmansk front. Source of the report of the alleged Rumanian break-through at Odessa is the official German news agency from Bukarest.

Places alleged to be Rumanian hands are Gnilla Kovo. Dalnik and Tabarcat.

All tents are dug one to two feet into the ground, with another two feet or so of sandbags above. This beeps out the keen winds and ensures that blends with the surrounding desert.

Electric light has been installed, and we have light run off a battery as well, in case the local generating plant should be bombed. Adjoining this tent, with a sandbagged tunnel between, is a recreation tent, with a bar and large constructed -of sandbags.

ERNEST BEVIN, Minister of Labour, has a rww 1 recruit to his staff.

Air-Commodore the Duke of Kent, whose reports on h.s visit to the Empire Air Tra.ning Scheme in Canada were considered of the greatest value by the Air Council, is taking on a war job under the Ministry of Labour. He is making a sei ies ot visits of inspection to war production factories in this country to see how the men and women at the benches and lathes are getting on with the job, and to learn what war-time factory conditions are like. Factory work is not new to the Duke. For several years before the war he worked in the Factories Department Inspectorate Ihe iQuioe will combine this new job with duties as Chief Welfare Officer of R.A.F. Trailing Command.

House of. fives is to-day discussing President Bill to permit the arming of U.B. merchantmen. The debate was expected to last throughout session, and Administration leaders say they expect the House to pass the Bill before iiightflall to-morrow, says a Washington message. "Parliamentary right of way" for the Bill was granted by the House Rules Committee last night, after the Foreign Affaire Committee had approved the proposal to repeal the vital clause in the Neutrality Act.

Colonel Frank Knox, Navy Secretary, said States Navy was ready to put guns and gun-crews in merchant ships fast as the ships to us." Republican members of House of Representatives will vole in large numbers for arming merchantmen," wellinformed Republican sources stale. Plain To Japan Republican Members say that during the summer vat ation they found in their districts opinion overwhelmingly in favour of allaid to Britain. Asserting that "it is just as certain that we are going to have to light Hitler as it is that the United States and Britain are going to continue to exist," Senator Pepper told newspapermen to-day that ttie United States should prepare for this conflict by "immobilising Japan and by destroying the Japanese, Italian and French navies." Senator Pepper, who is a member of the Foreign Relations Committee, is the second Senator to favour an attack on Japan this week. BACK TO THE STATES Mr. Averill Harriman, and members of the Ainerii an Mission to Moscow, who returned to London from Russia on October 10, left by air to-day for the I nited States.

Enough for 4. Moves Far East Tension TENSENESS of the situation in the Pacific grows. It is reflected to-da by th resignation of Prince pro-Japan Cabinet, and Australian concern over the new I Japanese air line to Timor, and in rival naval threats by U.B. and Japanese spokesmen. The new Japanese air service was discussed by the Australian War Advisory Council, which Air-Chief Marshal Sir Robert Brooke-Popham, Commander-in-Chief Far East, attended.

The discussion followed deliberations by the War Cabinet and Service chiefs yesterday, and it is authoritatively stated in Melbourne that the Commonwealth has cabled other Pacific governments for their views. The Royal Australian Navy announces that all openings in the Barrier Reef have been mined, and that minefields have laid in Torres Strait, between Australia and New Guinea as a warning to Japan. Ruling On Ginemas Curfew MR. MORRISON, Home Secretary, announced in the Commons to-day that he is advising Chiefs of Police that, unless heavy raiding calls for special measures in any area, closing hour of places of entertainment should not be fixed earlier than 10 p.m. ilr.

Morrison said the Government attach importance to giving the public reasonable opportunity for recreation after the work is flone, and their aim is to keiep interference with public recreation to such a minimum as is consistent with the war effort. The Government had reviewed the position with a view to securing some measure of uniformity. Mr. Morrison also announced that the Government has decided to discontinue the preliminary warning of air raids. Tins walrninp was sent to headquarters Of A.R.P.
