STOCKHOLM REPEATS LENINGRAD ADVANCE BY GEN. VON LEEB
AN UNCONFIRMED REPORT - THAT THE ARMY OF MARSHAL RITTER VON LEEB HAS CONTACTED THE SOVIET DEFENCE LINES BETWEEN 10 AND 12 MILES WEST AND SOUTH OF LENIN- GRAD, WAS TELEGRAPHED AGAIN YESTERDAY BY THE CORRES- PONDENT OF THE STOCKHOLM “SVENSKA DAGBLADET.”.
These defences are stated to consist of a
series of forts remaining from the Civil War JUDGE of 1919 which have been supplemented and strengthened.
BLAMES
These forts, the correspondent continues, LUFTWAFFE are regarded as serious'obstacles by the Ger- mans calling for strong air attacks if they are to be overcome.
Crediting the Germans with a wish to spare Leningrad the horrors of war the correspondent mentions that there are no re- ports of dive-bombing attacks on the city itself.
It is understood, however, that when the weather permits the Germans are making an attack on the Leningrad de. fence line and the great naval base at Kronstadt protecting the city.
HERRIOT
& VICHY CLIQUE
A judgment of importance to property owners, concerning liability for an injury caused to a woman by a slate falling from a roof after an air raid was given by Mr. Justice Hallett at Liver- pool Assizes.
He held that it was not caused by a latent defect in the roof, and he could not say that by reason- able skill and care the owners would have known it was un- safe. They were
justified in thinking the roof had escaped the effects of blast.
