Adolf Hitler's war machine scored new smashing successes in the field tonight.

His forces in Frances continued to sweep toward Paris and in the north it was reported reliably that the Allies abandoned the Narvik region of Norway to Germany. King Haakon and officials of the Norwegian government fled to England.

They quit the Arctic war zone after approving a Norwegian surrender ending the two-months old war in Norway. The official German news agency, D.N. B., announced that hostilities between the German and Norwegian armies in northern Norway ended at midnight Sunday, Berlin time.

Nazis Close In On Paris

In France, advance units of the German war machine were in the region of the town of Gisors--just 34 miles from the suburbs of Paris.

In fact the German forces were in the immediate vicinity of four French cities vital to the defense of Paris and the salvation of the major French armies.

These are Rouen, on the Seine between Paris and the sea, Compiegne and Soissons, within 25 miles of each other on the Oise Valley sector north and slightly east of Paris, and Rheims, just above the river Marne, east and slightly north of Paris.

But along the sprawling, blazing 500 mile western front--from the sea to Switzerland the French tightened their lines and launched a fierce counter attack.

Around the Aisne front the French were reported to be hurling back waves of German assaults with terrific slaughter.

Generalissimo Maxime Weygand ordered his men to "hold fast," hoping that the Germans would crack under the strain. Weygand announced that the final quarter hour for France, is at hand.

The German juggernaut is so near the northwest outskirts of the French capital that the American Red Cross headquarters has fled to Bordeaux.

All during the day, Nazi planes roared over Paris. Apparently they didn't bomb the city proper but in seven attacks they showered shells on communication lines along the Oise Valley about 15 miles from the outskirts of Paris.

British Planes Continue Raids

The British also were active in the air over the week-end. They claimed to have continued their raids on military objectives in Germany and northern France, including Nazi-occupied airdromes at Abbeville and at Eindhoven, Holland.

At sea, the Germans claimed to have sunk the $20,000,000 British aircraft carrier Glorious in a naval engagement in the far reaches of the North Sea. In addition, the Germans say they sunk a British destroyer, the 21,000-ton troop transport Orama, the naval oil tanker Pioneer and a modern submarine chaser. In London, the British said they had been informed that there was "contact" between British and German vessels in northern waters but the Admiralty offered no further statement.

Italy Still Uncertain

Meanwhile, the Mediterranean's troubled peace still hung in the balance.

In Rome, the influential Fascist editor, Giovanni Ansaldo predicted that Italy will join Germany in attacking Britain as soon as France is conquered and, Ansaldo said, that will be soon.

The editor's Sunday radio address led to reports that Italy is preparing to intercede and offer separate peace terms to France, including Italian claims on France. The alternative would be earlier Italian entry into the war. The French military communique said tonight that Hitler's advances so far in the battle of France have been extremely costly. One military spokesman estimated that in the last five days the German dead, wounded, and prisoners have mounted to 400,000 and, in addition, the French claimed to have destroyed at least 1,000 armored tanks
