StaIin’s Disposition Of Mobilized Troops Puzzles Nazis & Allies

LONDON, Sept. military prepara ions are cousin the German Government as wel as the British and French Gov- emmem anxiety because none

knows Russia's intentions, it, was

learned today.

Reports emanating from Moscow

indicate that Russia is mobilizing on 3. full war time basis and it was estimated here that it now had at least 4.000.000 men under arms

The German Government was re- Dorted to be Surprised at the extent of the Russian mobilization, par. Uculafly as regards the troops’ disposition. Russia is massing men not alone on the Polish frontier but along Russia's entire frontier from Finland to Rumanla,

Apparently the Germans are no more coznrznntt than the Allies of the reasons for these impotent measures

Experts speculate

Military men speculate whether

Russia is disquieted at the im- mincnt prospect of German forces

reaching the Russian frontier at

the southwest corner of Poland.

it —- Rusian

The German’; sudden drive to the vicinity of Llow ( ) brought them within about 1 miles of the Russian frontier.- 'I'h‘s thrust with heavy armored and motorized columns was aimed at <-rrttingr the Poles off from ac- ross to Rumanla. at outflanking the Poles on the Bus: River line and at menacing Poland's remaining oil fields toward the Carpatlrians.

Rumaninn Pressure

Perlrrms also the I’/zrmans fore- see that their arrival on the Ru- manian frontier would enable them to exert pressure on Rumtmio to increase its oil supplies to Germany.

Unessiness manifested in Nazi circles regarding the Russian large. sra'e mobilization seems to indicate that the Nazis are not too certain re-zardimz Stalin's lntentitms. Nor are the French and British Gov- ernment: one authority on Rus- sian affairs expressed the opinion here that most likely the mobilize.- ficn was due to the Russians‘ un- oeriaintv at Hl‘lcr‘< nlrms rather than fil1.V,"T‘9Darai.lon for action such as seizing the Baltic states.

CHATHAM. Muss, Sept. 16- (AP)-A mysterious distress call from an unidentified ship, crack- ling out the terse message. "shelled by submarine. going down." left the fste of the vessel and her crew un- certain tonight as hours passed without additional word.

The distress signal was intercep-

As picked up by Radio Marine, the message read: "some ship with loud signal sent distress signals on
