POLISH THEATRE: Blitzkrieger
(6 of 6)
Russia's export surplus of 2,000,000 tons will help, but Germany needs still more. Last week a German mission was in Bucharest trying to get Rumania's 7,000,000 tons. But Rumania's two largest companies are owned by Americans and British, and the Government's percentage of the output is pledged to the French for a loan. It began to look as if more pressure might soon be put on Rumania.
Rumania is not so flat as Poland, and it is farther from Germany. Whether Brauchitsch's Blitzkrieg could function as smoothly down there was a question nobody could answer. And beyond the West-wall there was still France, with 2,500,000 men and a mechanized army of its own.
* Reports that onetime Chief of Staff Werner von Fritsch was back in the field on trial last week were not true.
