The Conservative Member, the Earl of Winterton, thought that the situation between Britain and Turkey should be clarified. He had a great admiration for the Turks ond admitted that their difficulties were enormous, but the time had passed when any country of the importance and dignity of Turkey could be in the position she was to-day..

What A Remark!

Sooner or later she has to deelarc which side she is on.

Mr Churchill interjected, "What a remark to makeľ”

Lord Winterton, however, dcclared that Turkey had signed a treaty with Britain's greatest enemy and asked, "How can you be mutually friendly with two enemies such as Germany and us?"

Mr Churchill again intervened to say, "It would not be in the public interest for the discussion to con tinue on these lines. We should not seek to probe and define too clearly the attitude of certain Powers sur- rounded by very great dificulties who may not wish or be in a position to declare themselves."--

"Tough Resistance”

Despite tough enemy resistance, the German army through its incom- parable infantry and storm troops supported by ploneers and artillery units as well as panzer forces, has deeply penetrated a Russian border position. The are

agency claimed that the German losses were unusually small during these battles.

-The announcement added that the Luftwaffe dispersed Soviet armoured forces which had been placed ready for battle.

A report from Helsinki says that German troops are now only a few miles from the Lithuanian border after occupying the city of Siauliai which is the last Lithuanian city on the main highway towards Riga. They are expected to cross the Lithuanian border to-day..
