r PAGE_SI_X___ ___ THE CHARLUITELILOWN GUARDlAh OCTOBER 9, 1_941 - - Repeated bombing raids on Bri- tish port areas and the industrial midlands has attracted iresh at- tention to the frightful suffering of the many thousands of civilians ln Great Britain who are harried o-iven into the open country by IUCGESSWB raids. Eventually places are found for them all, places oi relative security. but their belong- ings of all kinda are destroyed. The task of emergency feeding alone is difficult. The task of setting them up once more with some quantity o! clothing and bedding is much more difficult. To neet these enormous needs. funds have been started in various parts of the world.

Situation Grave (Continued from page 1) Marshal Semeon 'I‘imoshenko, the defender of this capital, appeared to be fighting now to hold if p05. sible but at all cost to destroy. A $111818 Red infantry division charging heedlessly with flaming y bottles of gasoline was credited with exploding more than 800 Germarii tanks; hundreds more were said to have been smashed by Soviet or- tlllery fire and Soviet bombers a- long with uncounted armored cars, trucks and troop transports. Russian engineering companies, sweating under unending German 51W. broke the bitter terrain with hundreds of miles of trenches and tank traps. Before them division upon divis- ion oi other Red combat troops counter-attacked ceaselessly in ef- forts to smash back the lengthen- ing projection from the Nazi line. The tone of crisis was strom and clear. The magazine Bolshevik called out for Bri sh action in the west, now that itler has engaged to the death in the east. “The British Empire," it said, “now has the opportunity for tak- ing the initiative into its hands and dealing destructive blows to the common foe of mankind, the Hitler Fascists." The official organ of the Soviet navy estimated that the Germans had now only 2o to so weak divis- ions in France and little artillery, and iew planes left in all the west, l and at the same time said that the British army and sir force had greatly grown while the Royal Navy still held the seas. The areas of qualified Red suc- cesses along the centre were not; stated during the day. It was de. flared. however, that at least two of an undisclosed number of Nazi salients had been hammered back. In the rising fury of the struggle the Soviet command made no effort to estimate German casualties, but‘ it was implied that nowhere in all the invasion had they been so great. Moscow generally took the p051. tion that it was Hitler's last and greatest lunge before the onset of winter and that the German com. mand was ready to write c fright. ful casualty roll rather than be balked in the coming snows. While the situation in this goat. est of theatres was acknowledged to be critical, continued and major Russian successes were reported from the Leningrad and odes“ fronts.
