It will go to Mother Volga, the great rlvcr that flows on to the sea below the cliffs on which the blood-bathed pity stands. ft is tho shelter of her mighty arm, thrown about Stalingrad from nmlh to south, that has balked Nazi striking power so long, forced Nazi rever- sion to the bloody business of frontal attacks.

Elsewhere in this war except when it reached the North Sea and English Channel, that mode-In-Germun Juggernaut has relied on pan- zer break-throughs to spread confusion and cripple communications far in the rear of the main objective, be it fort or city. Mother Volga has prevented that at Stalingrad. If the mlgh loved before by all Russians as the legendary guardian of their homeland, shc will be worshipped hereafter if Stalingrad defies all precedent and survives the
