troops were encircled in a pocket
adjoining Stalingrad, cut off from
invasion forces to the west by a
Russian-held corridor from 20 to 80
miles wide.
Sources here said it was unlikely
the number has changed since the
trap was completed two weeks ago
because the Germans would be un-
likely to fly additional reinforce
ments to that hazardous zone to
consume limited supplies.
While the Germans ground COM
munications with the rear are cut,
they have continued to fight like
cats" and are quite capable of a
strong effort either to hold on or
attempt to break across the Soviet
corridor and rejoin Axis forces west

CHICAGO. Jan. e.-Buylng Of
grain centered in the rye pit here
today where prices were up about
a cent bushel at one tine. but
gains in other cereals amounted TO
only fractions. Soybeans rose more
than 2 cents, but later lost part Of
this advance.
Buying of rye was attributed to
belief that increased amounts might
be taken by distillers to manufacture
industrial alcohol for conversion into
munitions. Corn was hardly af-
fected by the Government order for
increased manufacture of alcohol
from grains. although traders ex-
pressed belief the bulk of distilling
operations for this purpose would
involve corn Large amounts of
Government corn already are being
diverted TO distillers, according to
