DEWITT MACKENZIE Associated Press War Analyst The Allied offensive out of the Rhineland continues its eastward sweep of encirclements and annihilation across the- reich without en- countering signs of German opposition sufficiently well organized to halt it. Short On Troops, Materiel Here and there the Nazis are fighting fanatically, but these is- lands of resistance lack 'the co- hesion to make them more than locally effective. Field Marshal Kesselring-;whom Hitler recently substituted for unlucky Field Mar- shal Von Rundstedt as.commander in chief in an effort to salvage something from the wreckage-is having a hard time squeezing juice out af the lemon his Fuehrer hand- ed him. Kesselring is desperately short of both troops and materiel. The best the German com- mander can make out of the situa- tion in any event is to delay slight- ly the final mllapw of a Nazidom which today is-said by the official German news, agency to be calling up 10-year- -old boys and girls for the Hitler youth service to help meet the manpower difficulties. Kessclring's hope (if any) in this direction must be pinned to two possibilities. One is that the Allied crive shortly will 'have to slow down somewhat because of its rapidly extending supply lines and that isn't unlikely, The other is that he can make some sort of stand along the Elbe river, You will note from your maps that the Elbe is the next natural barrier between General Eisen- hower's Tacing troops. and a junc- tion with the Russian front along the Oder river, It also. is the final important line of defense west of Berlin-about 50 miles from the capital. As this is written a bul- letin is .laid before me saying American and British forces have driven within sight «Of the big North German -eities of Bremen and Hannover and have sent tank columns crashing even farther eastward to w ards \the Elbe. These spearheads were. perhaps 70 miles from the river, and it's anybody's guess where they will be when this article appears in print. Even if the Nazi «commander does make a stand along the Elbe in face of the speed being shown by our advancing troops, he will be in a most unhappy position. The Elbe and Oder rivers run #--- [fairly parallel .to each 'other, bracketing Berlin and forming a corridor which varies between something like 75 and 100 miles over much of its length. Thus Kesselring's battle-line facing the western Allies, and his battle-line opposite the Muscovites, will be fighting almost back to back in- side: this narrow corridor.. Not nice! The inevitable result must 'be the collapse of Hitlerite defense in northern Germany before long, and perhaps an effort on the part of the Nazi high command to [withdraw the shattered remnants of its armjes southward towards Hitler's fortress in the Bavarian Alps. The success, however, of such <a withdrawal is in \grave jeopardy because of the Russian offensive into Austria.
