German claims of sinking British ships contrast with British reports of only two sunk, while night patrols over northern Germany and Frisian bases target Nazi mine laying. Finnish forces push along 30 miles of frontier as Russia withdraws from central east border, with massed Russian troops on the Karelian isthmus noted. Canada’s Montreale and Quebec regiments join the British expeditionary force in France after training in England. Hungary and Romania seek to settle territorial disputes, while Italy urges restraint. Western front activity remains light with German artillery and isolated grenade attacks repelled near the Vosges.

Nazis Will Be Sent to Reich
Washington authorities join German officials to arrange the early return of 575 Columbus crewmen. About 400 military-age men would be moved from Ellis Island to San Francisco and then shipped to Japan or other foreign vessels for transport to Germany via the Trans Siberian railroad. The plan calls for dispersing men across multiple ships to evadeBritish interception. North German Lloyd would cover travel costs.
