NORTHERN FIGHTING
CLAIM BY THE FINNS OFFENSIVE BEING PUSHED. SAVAGE GERMAN ORDER. (Received This Day, 1.0 p.m.) LONDON. July 22. The Karelian Isthmus is quiet, but the Finns claim that they are pushing their offensive in the direction of Kakisalmi. Artillery duels continue at Hanko. The Russian Air Force, in addition to raiding over Finland, has engaged in considerable lighting over the battlefront and has also dropped parachutists in several areas. The German radio stated that Northern Estonia is still in Russian hands. Bitter fighting is proceeding around Kiev.
The Moscow radio quoted an order by von Klicst, commander of a Ger-
man tank corps, saying: “Rumours about Soviet tanks breaking through have caused panic. Anyone provoking or Spreading panic must be court-mar-tialled. Officers must act with the utmost severity and when necessary resort to arms.”
