SATURDAY, SEPT. 4, 1913 THE ESCANABA (MICH.) DAILY PRESS PAGE THREE Moscow Dateline BY HENRY C. CASSIDY- immR POINT VALUES FOR MEAT, FATS, FISH, AND DAIRY PRODUCTS No. September 5, 1943 Fatal Mistake at Stalingrad Chapter 2 8 The Red army won a major victory of its civil war at syn. It won the most important hattle, to date, of the second World War at the same city, now called Stalingrad.

Both victories were personal to Joseph Stalin. He, according to civil war legend. ordered all boats sent up the Volga from Tsaritsyn so that there could be no retreat, only victory or death. His men, according to modern war legend, burned their own boats behind them, for the same purpose. Tsaritsyn, a fact not always recognized now in official Soviet history, was lost, but finally and decisively rewon.

Stalingrad, another little-known fact, was almost completely occupied by the Germans, but the city became a graveyard for Its occupants. Stalingrad in 1941, was a burgeoning industrial giant of half a million people. It had grown from a frontier post and trading town into a manufacturing city, to which came from which went machines. It sprawled for forty miles along the high west bank of the Volga. Its northern suburbs were the site of the Dzerzshinsky tractor plant, largest in the Soviet Union, the Red October Metal Works, and other great factories, each with its settlement.

Who could have foreseen, on September 3, 1939, when the war began in the west, that one of its great battles would be fought at Stalingrad? Yet fate or geography, the German or Soviet high command, or a combination of all of them, decreed that here should bo fought the great hattle of 1942. Tho crux of the battle was not possession of Stalingrad, for that was only incidental to the larger issues. Neither was it immediate destruction of the Red army, for that had proved impossible in the German offensive of the previous year all along the front. It was territorial advance north along the Volga t6 isolate Moscow. The Germans strurk their first main blow early in August across the steppes from the southwest, advancing along the Salsk-Stalin- grad railway with a force of eleven divisions, two of them armored, one motorized.

Their iiim was to break quickly into Stalingrad from Kotelnikovo, sibout one hundred miles to the southwest. They were stopped Just northeast of Kotelnikovo. The second phase developed with an attack by six divisions, coordinated with the southern group of eleven, striking through the Kalach sector, about forty- five miles west of Stalingrad. They also were stopped. The forces used in these efforts swelled in mid-August from a total of seventeen divisions to twenty- three and then to without avail.

Late in August came the third, and grand, assault from the northwest. The Germans crossed the Don, about forty miles northwest of Stalingrad, on August 2 3. They reached the Stalingrad legion August 25. That day, they made a terrible air raid on Stalingrad. leveling three-quarters of the city with a cold brutality rivaling that shown in the earlier bombings of Rotterdam, Belgrade, and London.

On that same day began the battle for Stalingrad proper. The Germans, holding great superiority in tanks and aviation, bunched their blows on the main sector northwest of Stalingrad, hoping to take the city by storm. Again they were disappointed. They were able to advance, but their hoped-for rush was slowed down to a walk. They were within fifteen miles of the city limits on September 1.

On September 15, they reached the outskirts of the city. On September 22. they were engaged in street-fighting within the city. By then the Red army had taken its stand, both inside more the city. The attacked daily with as many as eight infantry divisions, five hundred tanks and fifteen hundred to two thousand flights, but no longer could they break throuph the Russian lines.

The struggle for Stalingrad became a pitched battle, like those of the first World War. How were the Russians able to halt this formidable foe? Why were the Germans not able to advance farther? There was really no mystery about it. The answer, quite simply, was that the Germans did not have sufficient strength to carry through the attack. and the Russians did have sufficient strength to repulse the attack. The Germans had made the (for them) fatal mistake of dividing their forces.

It was the same mistake they had made during the first World War when they diverted a few divisions eastward- instead of cum everything on the plan for capture of This time, they sent a few divisions chasing off into the North Caucasus in an f- fort to deceive the Soviet command into believing their major objective was the oil of Baku. They concentrated many more divisions in the Orel sector for the later, supposedly derisive, action against Moscow What was left was rot enoueb in tory phrased it neath in 1942, addreiB Their attempt to chase two hares at and encirclement of landed the German Fascist strategists, in difficulties. Thus, the tactical successes of the German summer offensive were not consummated, owing to the obvious unfeasibility of their tegical plans. The Russian strength, that w-as more than enough to meet this German force, lay in leadership, man-power, and materiel. General Andrei Yeremenko took command in August of the Stalingrad front, meaning the group of armies defending the entire region.

He was one of the finest, toughest, smartest, most direct of that group of high Red army officers whose biographies read so much alike. He was wounded four times quite seriously, three more times lightly, as his heavy-set. short figure limped through the ruins of Stalingrad under mortar and shell fire. Even in the hospital, he retained and executed his command of the front. Inside Stalingrad itself, he placed the fi2d Red army of Lieutenant-General Vasisly Chuikov.

With Chuikov, as chief of his staff, served Major-General Nikolai Krilov, a big. burly, easygoing, pleasant man who had been chief of staff in the defenses of Odessa and Sebastopol. They took charge of Stalingrad with a firm hand, throwing out anyone who showed any signs of defeatism or pessimism, as ruthlessly as Stalin had done twenty- four years before them. They brought in reinforcements for the 62d army. The Germans, having failed to take Stalingrad from the march, settled down in late September to an effort to batter the city into subjection.

Their time-table was already ruined, and they were attacking on two-and three-mile sectors, attempting to occupy the northern factory district, where the resistance was strongest, and to split the defense of the city. The Russians had succeeded in checking the enemy at Stalingrad and building powerful defenses around the city, but still, it was a hard fight. Then, on October 9. came a startling reversal in the situation. The German command announced on that day that it had adopted new tactics at Stalingrad, withdrawing the bulk of its infantry and tanks away from the fray, and substituting artillery and dive-bombers for them, to save lives in completion of the task- The only lives it saved were Russian.

For the slaughter then diminishes and eventually virtually every German there lost either life or his liberty. Despite the announcement. they put on a strong offensive during last half of October, storming the brick walls and fire-swept yards of the northern factory section repeatedly.

The real Red army force was gathering around Stalingrad. A general reorganization was underway.

The entire Soviet front, which had originally been divided into three groups, each a large unwieldy organization of more than one hundred divisions, under Voroshilov, Timoshenko, and Budenny, was made over in twelve their Infan-j compact fitting forces, each try and tanks, to the extent that the fronts of their action were reduced. They gained an average of fifty yards a day during this period. according to Red Star, and they lost an average of one thousand to four thousand men a day. They ceases this action November 5, on the eve of the anniversary of the Bolshevik Revolution, by which time they had hoped Stalingrad would be theirs. They put on a new offensive November 12, narrowing their attacks down to sectors two hundred to four hundred yards wide, instead of two to three miles wide.

Then their objective was only to take the shortest way to the Volga, break through the junctions of defending units, and disrupt the Red army lines a far cry from the original ambitious plan to take Moscow.

General Chui- army headquarters still within the city, were often more advanced than divisional or regimental headquarters, and often under the automatic gun-fire of the enemy. Five Chuikov had to move his base, once because it was flooded by burning gasoline, at other because its communications were severed. At critical moment he ordered his chief of staff go to the east bank of the Volga, planning himself to remain in Stalingrad.

Krilov, shuffling his feet, stood silent. Finally, another member of the staff stepped forward and spoke for him: win or die They stayed together. The Volga was not frozen in mid-November. Ice-floes broke the Red arraj pontoon bridge and barge crossings, so that the plight of the defenders inside the city was desperate. What was true of the fronts around Stalingrad was that while the 62d army was hearing the brunt of the German attac on the city, a mass of men and materials was being assembled on the enemy flanks.

The Germans, made the miMake of putting insufficient forces into the Stalin- t-rad assault, another mistake of persisting stubbornly in their original plan. they were attacking at this single and to a lesser extent in i raiKdsil. tho Pe.r\ an along i In fact, P'sltngrad and i ic the the Russian! commanded by a skillful professional soldier and supplied with hard striking power.

Now, the Germans held most of Stalingrad, but all around them was gathering a a storm that broke November 19.

19 42. On that day. three Red army groups launched the Russian counter-offensive, long and carefully planned, northwest and southwest of Stalingrad. The fronts were the southwest, commanded by General Nikolai tin; the Don, commanded by General Konstantin Rokassovsky: and the Stalingrad, commanded by General Yeremenko. The objective was to break through the enemy flanks and to encircle the mans at Stalingrad By November 2, they had succeeded On that day, units from the northwest and southwest met at Kalach and turned east, facing the German 6th army and part of the German 4th tank army, surrounded by a thin strip of Red army forces.

The encirclement movement was considered by the Soviet command as the greatest ever executed. exceeding anything the Gerhad carried out in the first of war. Inside the Red army ring twenty-two divisions, with other artillery and engineer- regiments and battalions, about 380,000 men in all. Moreover, the Russians were soon to put to flight a relief expedition the Germans sent under Von Mannstein to rescue the encircled forte.

February 2 finished the rout and annhilation of the encircled enemy troops at Stalingrad. On the fronts to the north, west, and south, the Red army pressed on with its second winter campaign. Everything that had happened there had a direct relation to the battle of Stalingrad itself. All was woven together by one mind in the Kremlin, to a general winter defeat of the Germans. To the north, the Red army attacked and captured Veliktle Luki.

guarding the vital sector between Moscow and Leningrad. To the south, the Red army pursued the enemy out of the Caucasus. Another Red army offensive broke the Hungarian forces on the Voronezh front in mid-January. Six Magyar divisions were destroyed, together with a motely collection of Italians and Germans. The entire southern half of the Red army line was now rolling west, with troops of the Vor- onezh front, under General Filip Golikov, and of the Briansk front, undt-r General Max Reuter.
