Hitler & Goering Quarrel
Air Chief Against Latest Campaign
LONDON, July 13 (Reúter). -Reports of a quarrel between Hitler and Goering on the eve of the Nazi attack on Russia were broadcast by Moscow Radio 10- night.
"United Press" quotes a war communique broadcast from Moscow yesterday which avers that neither on Saturday or Sunday was there any large-scale fighting. However, in one sector the Soviets annihilated a Nazi motorised unit.
"Reuter" reports the Berlin Radio which claims an important German victory in the new Nazi drive against the Stalin Line.
