BELIEVE DIEPPE PART OF SCHEME T0 HELP RUSSIA Linked With Plan To In|; 'vade France and Help iin Russia By Ross Munro Canadian Press Siaft Writer Paris, Aug. 19--(CP)~Tho costly id on Dieppe by the 2nd Cana- dian Division four years ago now appears to have been stra ally linked with a vade France in Clerman pressure off the hard. pressed Red Army at Stalingrad. This interpretation is based on the disclosure by Gen, George Mar= shall, farmer United States chief of Saft, in his report, "Winning the War in Europe and the Pacific," that the plan to invade with wix die. visions was considered two years before D-Day actually camo, Soveral senior Allied officers who knew some of the incide story of Dieppe and with whom I talked in London said the same thing, . Official details of the coanection between the raid and the 1042 plan remain locked up with Britain's wartime prime minister, Winston Churchill, and the war cabinet and ma Hover be fully divulged, 0 basic strategic reason for Dieppe wis never explained satise factorily, but this much appears certain: In April, 1042, when the Red Army was being forced back by the Germans, Britain and United States senior officers confarred in London ! on a tentative plan to invade Eur She agross the English Channel, 0 code-name for the operation was "Roundup" and tho target date was the summer of 1043, a "8 hummer: Plan emergency plan, code-named "Sledgehammer" and involving a diversionary assault on the French const with at least six divisions, Was also considered, About this time the 2nd Cana. dian Division began intensive com- bined operation training, - It was tloketed for the Dieppe raid but its task could be easily fitted into the "Sledgehammer" plan and in fact sooms to have been part of it. In June, 1042, Mr, Churchill and Lord Alanbrooke, then chief of the Iniperial general staff, went. to Washington for further conferences Tarpauline REPAIRED RENOVATED Also Manufactured!

One is: Who did the planning? I can say, after careful investigation, responsibility for the broad plan was that of come bined operations headquarters and the British war office, Gon, A, G, IL, MoNaughton, then the 1st Canadian Army commander, and Gen, MH, D, G. Orerar, then commander of the and Corps, which included the 2nd Division, had pothing whatever to do with that part of the plan, The only Influe ence any Canadian senior officer had was In working out details of FOR YOUR WIRING AND APPLIANCE REPAIRS call CHRISTIAN'S ELECTRIC & HARDWARS PHONE 1000 Clean Quarters Now i1| For Laying Pullets The clean of the la pens Sanks. to house iog.0 i Ke Bi were used instead, also in the original intention, to 1 Jian, y | attack Dieppe heavily with bombers, but this was rejected because the British war cab feared French reaction, Rugors that the 1st Division was offered the assignment but turned it down becatise Maj-Gen, Ceorge Poakes, divisional or, re- garded it as unsound, are untrue, The 2nd Division was choren in the first instance and the 1st never entered into it at all, na A A PHYSICAL JERKS dney, Australia -- (OP) = ney Town Cert new elevator would be iristalled at the town hall as soon! as one wan available, ~ One alderman suggested Byd- romised that a put | that jt was ridloulous to have to ump up and down in the present on AX make it work, 4 FLOOR SANDING Yi Phone to 3TUW1 flock of pullets for fall and winter uction is an important factor poultry management.
