In Poland...
The German forces cross the River San north and south of Przemysl, in southeast Poland. The battle on the Bzura continues but the leaders of German Army Group South, Rundstedt and his Chief of Staff, Manstein, are already beginning to assemble reinforcements for German 8th Army. The Polish force at Radom is destroyed with the Germans capturing 60,000 men. The German capture of the industrial area of Upper Silesia is complete.
In Britain...
Churchill begins correspondence with Roosevelt which he signs as "A Naval Person".
In London...
The British cabinet decides no further attempt to bomb Germany by air will be carried out. Meanwhile, plans for the federation of India are postponed indefinitely.
