before that, and the Red Army
should have been completely washed
out. Instead Of this, not only have
the Germans been held up almost
all along the front, but they have
been forced to retreat while the
three great centers which have al
ways been their most coveted OBJ
jects-Leningrad. Moscow and Ros-
toy-are all in our hands.
1t would, in my opinion, be wrong
to give all the credit of this to the
winter season, though it has un-
doubtedly played its part. The truth
is rather that a favorable combina-
ton of circumstances has come into
being. There can be no doubt that
the Germans in their scramble for
territory, their hasty grasping at
fortified towns, have lost their best
military units, and have had to fill
up the breaches with those Of in
ferior quality.
The determined defense of the Red
Army caused an atmosphere of hope
lessness and apathy among the at
tackers, breaking down their belief
in rapid victory. This atmosphere
was in its turn thickened by the
German Army's reaction to Hitler's
boastful and unfulfilled promises.
NaziS' Morale Shaken.
Here we are confronted, beyond
all doubt, by considerable lowering
of the morale of Hitler's armies, if
not by their complete demoraliza-
tion. I am not inclined to believe
that Hitler has during the last week
or two transferred any troops from
the Russian to any other front lex
isting or newly createdD. AS a mat
ter Of fact, there exists only one
other land front which has lately
become active, and this is Libya
And, important as this front is both
in itself and potentially, Hitler is,
after all, not sufficiently interested
in the preservation of Libya for
Italy, or the salvaging of the italian
Army there to risk failure on the
Eastern front.
Hitler could easily recover from
any defeat in Libya. for it will not
settle his hash. Defeat on the East
ern front, on the contrary, would
mean the shipwreck of all his hopes
and plans, and would seal his fate
forever. Hitler would get over the
defeat of his satellites, or at any rate
could keep his head above water
without their help for some time
but Hitler's "allies" without Hitler

evil Of our times, over the spirit Of
aggression of international infamy
and barbarity. And triumph we

All that I have said to you Just
now is to provide you with a back
ground for your questions, II any.
You will forgive me If I have to
disappoint you by failing to give
answers to all the questions which
are OF interest TO you. I quite
understand what many of you have
on the tip of your tongues, but you
see our enemies are listening still
more eagerly for my answers than
are even press representatives. And

We are proud and happy to count
ourselves the allies of your great

be arrived at among these three
allies as to which of them should

energy. or which sector, and that
they will be ruled in this by the
interests of the common cause. We

feet that Hitler has decided to call
halt to major activities in the east,
and that it is all a part of his plan,
need not be taken at all seriously.
Any such halt to his activities can
only be imposed upon him by cir
cumstances over which he has no
control.
Reds TO Press Attack.
However this may be, the Soviet
high command has no intention of
falling in with this plan" nor
OF allowing Hitler to hibernate. We
intend to beat back and smash up
the hordes of Hitler till they are
completely destroyed. We intend to
break up his monsIrous war ma
chine, and with it its perpetrators.
We feel that no one can do this
without us, or instead Of, and we
should be rendering our Allies and
the common cause poor service did
we for a moment relax our efforts
in this direction just now.
During the last five days the bat
tie front has become considerably
more extensive, spreading to all
continents. 1t must now be plain
even to those who are, politically
speaking, babes or blind that all
that is now going on is the result
Of a vast conspiracy by a handful
Of international gangsters, calling
themselves Axis powers, to plunder
all countries, enslaving their peo-
