One of the most widely circulated Nazi falsehoods was a report that Stalin had yielded his place'as supreme Russian, military, commander Marshal Boris ie'portt which Moscow brandedf-as a plain He. Another similar rumor was voiced by the Vichy radio, that Gen. George Marshall, U.

S. Chief of. Staff, had been supersedde. Like I the Shaposhnikov report there was no truth in the Vichy allegation. The mounting strain, of.

three years-of war on internal structure was. clearly, indicated, by a. Sunday, address-of!

He promised the Germans that they would eat, even if the rest of Europe should starve, and expressed sympathy for the residents of regions unde.r British air bombardment, saying that as an expert on such matters he well, knew the sufferings they must endure.

However, he was unable to promise any immediate alleviation since the luftwaffe, he made plain,) wr itt en an) was too occupied in Russia to pay o( eacn wee heaviest casualties from the my's assault troops, front 1 advices said. According to- German prisoners taken by the steel city's defend' ers, the enemy had- designated' the broad boulevard leading into the center, of Stalingrad, as- "the- road 'of It was cluttered with hundredsvof unburied corpses and the smouldering wreckage of scores of German tanks. "Amidst the blazing, ruins," the Communist organ Pravd'a said) hearts are stronger than German steel." It; urged the- Soviet defenders: "Fulfill your sacred Stalingrad!" i l''iVf Reduction- of- the city, it saidj would release the immense strength concentrated- there for. an offensive on the Baku oil fields and possibly a new thrust against Moscow itself. Pravda said the gallant stand at Stalingrad had shattered Adolf Hitler's strategy for 1942.

Regimental Commisar Karpov wrote in the English language Moscow News that the Germans had brought up several reserve divisions (perhaps 45,000 men) and 103 tanks, oners were taking engineer forces working on roads and impressing th'em into street fighting, so desperate was becoming the German situation as regards reserves.
