GERMAN ARMY CHANGING ITS TACTICS
(By Reuter's Special Correspondent in Moscow).:
WITH WEATHER CONDITIONS DETERIO- RATING, ESPECIALLY IN THE NORTH AND CENTRE FRONTS, THE GERMANS ARE CLEARLY DETERMINED TO ACHIEVE, IF NOT A DECISIVE, AT ANY RATE A CRIPPL- ING BLOW TO THE RUSSIAN ARMY, OR AT LEAST TO RUSSIAN · INDUSTRIAL POWER WITHIN THE NEXT MONTH.
Can they succeed? The last few weeks have shown that the Germans discovered the Red Army a much tougher proposition than they expected, and it may generally be said that the Russian army's fighting power is not substantially impaired.
According to Russian figures, German casualties amount to two millions -- which is only a little under what the Gerinan them- selves admit when saying their losses are only one-third of Rus- sia's "five million casualties " The latter figure is. clearly, absurd.
Faced with the Russian army's toughness and genius to elude destruction and encirclement, the German polley appears to have switched over during recent weeks from
the primary objective of destroying the Russian army to
the objective to greatly weaken-
ing the Russian war potential.
Industries Lost
True they have failed to reach
the Moscow industrial area, but
they have captured the major of the Industry and iron^miries on the right Dnieper, bank... Owing to the destruction carri- ed out by the Russians, they will
be unable to make much use of
IRISHMAN

The execution was within 48 hours.
SERIOUS GERMAN
LABOUR SHORTAGE
FRESH EVIDENCE of the German labour shortage is revealed by a report that German workmen have been obliged to exchange tools for rifles, and the Jewish population of War- Saw will be found suitable work in German industry under supervision.
Another Nazi journal suggests the pro- hibition of smoking in public conveyances on
this, if any at all, but they at the grounds that it is not always possible to
least have deprived the Russians
of part of their Ukraine industry clean them, "as the cleaning personnel must and particularly iron ore, without be used elsewhere:"
which the coal and pig iron in-
dustry, cast of the Dnieper, will be partly slowed down.
It is true that there are other iron ore deposits as alternatives to those at Krivolrog and also electro-power alternatives to the Dneiper hydro-electric plant, but the Red Army's industrial sources are still great so long as the central Russian industrial area is not affected.
It is probable that every con- ceivable effort will be made by the Russians to safeguard these areas in which theTM Gormans are clearly interested, Judgingį from "their recent thrust Gomel.

A recent decree, also shows that the Germans have been obliged to recruit tubercular patients, and have relaxed the measures against the spread of infectious diseases in factories.
Faced with the mounting threat of American war production and deliveries, Germany," according to the Reich Labour Commissioner, has become the "world's biggest labour market and is endeavour- ing in every way to solve the | question of labour shortage."
