WHAT THIS C R I S I S IN EUROPE MEANS!
As I write this BULLETIN, we have reached the final CRISIS
of the final and last battle in the European war---the Battle of
Germany! The allies have vaulted the Rhine, and are racing toward
Berlin. NINE allied armies are blitzing on thru Germany. Chaos
reigns. Germans are surrendering so rapidly the allied soldiers no
longer have time to take them, or bother with them, but instruct
them to march on toward the rear.
In telephone conversation with the chief of the Portland
bureau of the Associated Press a little while ago he told me he
expects a flash, momentarily, that it's ALL OVER in Europe. It may
have happened before this BULLETIN reaches you. Every AP reporter
is instructed to keep within constant telephonic communication---
every reporter carries definite written instructions outlining
exactly what he is to do as the news men leap into action, if and
when the flash comes.
Yet it may NOT come. It may not come at all! There may be
no "V-E" Day. The Germans may just keep on surrendering, bit by
bit, little by little, until there are no more left to surrender.
Those who know NAZIS say they will NEVER give up or surrender. For
weeks and weeks the Nazis have been transporting vast quantities of
supplies, food, ammunition, into southern Germany---in the
mountainous and wooded section surrounding Munich and
Berchtesgaden. And, since March 26, a great exodus of the very
pick of the YOUNG Nazis toward these Bavarian Alps has been under
way. Apparently these born-and-bred-Nazis plan a last ditch stand
in that region. There they might hold out indefinitely---one or
two years. There the German engineers and scientists may CONTINUE
their feverish efforts to perfect the WEAPON OF THE FUTURE---the
jet-propulsion and rocket-principle weapons, already introduced,
but not yet perfected to point of military decisiveness. The Nazis
all winter have been stalling for TIME. Time to perfect this
weapon. IF they succeed, it's possible they might turn the tables
and start blitzing on thru allied forces as if they were putty. We
COULD lose the war, yet---and that possibility remains until the
Nazis have been COMPLETELY conquered, to the last man!
Even though the allies meet the Russians in or south of
Berlin---even though all Germany gives up and is occupied by the
allies, except this region of the Bavarian Alps,---if Hitler is
still in that wooded mountainous region with a million or a half-
