TOKYO, Oct. II lPl - The Japanese foreign office announc- ed that as the result of an agree ment with the United States over the dispatch of Japanese vessels to America, the Imperial gov ernment decided to send three ships in turn to the Pacific Coast These will be the first Sailings since the British and Am erican freezing of Jap credits.

Situation Critical BOtls Sides Use Masses of Men

UNDATED, Oct. II (P) - Ger man attacks in the Vyazma sector were repulsed overnight and the invaders suffered heavy losses the Soviet government declared, but the Red army acknowledg- the situation is still critical, both sides apparently pouring men into the huge ten-day-old strug- gle. The Russians said the Ger man plan of encirclement has been blocked and the offensive before Moscow slowed down. The army newspaper Red Star said the danger is great" and called for the British to set up a di- version on the front in western Europe.
 Gernsn reports asserted that hundreds of thousands of Russian corpSes filtered the battlefelds around Bryansk, 220 miles south west of Moscow where Red troops attempting to escape the encirclement by creeping through the German lines at night, were moved down in great numbers.
 The high command said, on the southern Ukraine front, the an- initiation of Soviet troops north of the Sea of Azov is approach ing completion and eleven Rus sian attempts to break out at Leningrad failed yesterday and 23 super-tanks were destroyed. Nevertheless the German news papers stold the people that the men at the front Wou d not be home this winter, which seemed 10 indicate that Hitler's deScrip- tion of the Moscow offensive did not mean the end of the war.
 Prime Minister Churchill re- ceived a demand from a group of British students for "immed- fate, armed action to relieve the pressure on our Russian allies

Russians Feel German Drive Can
 Be Stopped 7O-So Miles Short of
 Moscow, Which Is Yet Untouched

UNDATED. Oct. 13 (P) - In the face of Germany's claims that her Russian sweep was car ried within a hundred miles of Moscow on the west and south, Russian dispatches from the blood-bathed ront, declared that ore German thrust was slowed down and that the Red army launched counterattacks at sey- eral points. Authoritative quar- terS in London asserted that the German offensive, now in Rs 18th day, lost momentum as com pared 70 it's speed of the first couple of days and added. Tt is possible that the German drive might be stopped 70 or 80 miles short of Moscow. The limit of human endurance and the wear and tear on thousands of tanks and aunored cars may intervene to stabilize the RuSsian-German front"
 Moscow was untouched as the first snowS of winter blanketed the plains, perhaps smothering Hitler's hopes for a pre-winter victory.
 Russian dispatches said the German drive was slowed, par ticularly in the direction of Vyaz ma. which the Germans reported they had passed already, and was in the process of being mopped up. Vya1ma is i25 miles west of Moscow. One Russian counter attack made possible by fresh re inducements, was said to have recaptured a town near Bryansk, 2l0 mics southwest of Moscow the region of the German drive on Moscow from the south. An other counterattack was launch ed north of Orel and east of Bryansk. Orel was lost to the Germans a week ago despite Rus sian resistance. Pravda acknoW- ledged that the Germans are still moving on Moscow and that it is only question of whether the drive will be robbed of its mo- mentum short of ts goal
 The Germans spoke optimiSic- ally of the third spearhead thrust toward Moscow from the north west, which was said to have taken the Russians by surprise and pushed them back to about 40 miles from Moscow. The drive is reported still forging ahead.
 Authorized sources declared that German armored forces and motorized infantry are thrusting
