New Nazi Weapons
SINCE the beainning of war, Adolf Hitler has done much boast
about spectacular Nazi "secret weapons". Mostly it has been
mere talk. But in Italy the Nazis have uncovered four sur
prise weapons which, while probably not important enough to
affect the course of battles, have proved disturbing to the Al
lies. Here is an artist's conception of how they work.
RAIL LINE WRECKER -— A monstrous claw of steel, mounted
on four railway wheels, it is attached to the rear of German
trains retreating and uproots rail ties as the train titles. It
proved highly efficient in wrecking lines which the Allied pur
suers hoped to use. The Allies captured one at Termoli.

I
■ I I
PORTABLE PILL BOX—Cast steel, it holds a two-man machine- '
gun crew. Hauled to position on its own demountable wheels,
the pill box is buried with only a concrete dome showing. The
Allies outflank it and destroy it with Molotov cocktails, but
must conepd with others covering the flanks.
WOODEN MINES—Small but destructive, they defy Allied
mine detectors which register metal under ground. A mine
looks like an innocent bar of soap but it holds enough TNT to
blow a foot off the one who steps on it. Offieers directing the
Anzio operation call it '‘the worst curse of all".
BEETLE TANK—'Loaded with explosives, it is designed to be
detonated when it reaches our lines. Two feet high, six feet
long, it runs on caterpillar treads and is steered by an electric
cable which it trails. Gunners destroy it before it does dam
age but they believe it has possibilities.
