Still Under Control

(SPECIAL TO "CHINA MAIL”)

AN ACCURATE PICTURE OF THE SITUATION ALONG THE STALIN LINE, WHERE THE FIGHTING HAS REACHED ́ ́UNPRE CEDENTED INTENSITY, IS STILL QUITE IMPOSSIBLE OWING TO THE ALMOST FANTASTIC DIVERGENCES BETWEEN THE GERMAN AND SOVIET COMMUNIQUES.

If 'Berlin's claims were accepted, the Nazi attack is proceeding with dreamlike speed and precision. The official German ac- counts deal in terms like "the rampaging panzers” and the "shat- tered Stalin fortifications." They commit themselves to state- ments like: "A decision in the Russo-German war has been reach- ed. The Russians are no longer able to save themselves.

Moscow, still dealing more specifically with the main sectors of the fighting, states! that it is on a scale never before witnessed. The Red Army and the Red air legions have inflicted staggering losses on the Germans, in men and machines.

One part of the latest communi- que says: "A particularly vio- lent Nazi tank and motorised attempt to reach Leningrad through the northern Pskok sec- tion of the Stalin Line has been held up and in some places re- pulsed "with terrific losses to the Germans."
