SECOND FRONT
SPECULATION IN GERMANY.
NEWS AGENCY FISHING FOR INFORMATION.
(By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright) (Received This Day. 10.10 a.m.) LONDON, October 15.
The British High Command intends to give in to the Rusian demand for a second front and to make Normandy the scene of the attempt, says the Berlin Official News Agency. This, it says, is deducible from the increased R.A.F. activity and from the German observation of a great number of landing boats massed in specially suitable British harbours. The Agency lists as preparations for this landing on a large scale the commando raids, including that on Sark, and the attempt near Cherbourg on September 12. An attack was made on a coastal port in the Casquets Islands early in September, and an attempt to approach the coast near Annoville on October 7, when the coastal defences drove off British boats. Further attempts were observed at other points on the coast of Normandy in the same period.”
