cisive turn had not yet been
reached.
Soviet accounts said the battle
now ragged in four main zones of
the sprawling industrial center:
inner city, southwest, northwest
suburbs, and along a 40-mile
northwest corridor between the
Don and Volga rivers.
BY sectors, these were the ma
jor developments as related by
Red Army headquarters in a mid
day communique:
Inner city-Soviet troops beat
off a arge-scale German attack
and the invaders were thrown
back to their initial positions"
with 200 killed and 10 tanks
wrecked.
HOUSE-TO-HOUSE
Red Star said counterattacking
Russians raced from house to
house, ejecting the Nazis and dri-
wing them back along streets pit
ted with bomb craters and
choked with debris. To clear
fields of fire for their guns, the
Germans were reported telling
trees which made Stalingrad one
of the garden cities of Russia.
Southwest - Russian troops
beating off the lower claw of the
German pincer captured another
village, the fourth in 48 hours,
and killed 400 Germans.
Northwest suburbs Huge
Nazi forces of tanks, armored
cars, infantry, automatic rifle
men and dive bombers struck
again and again in an attempt to
deepen a wedge cut into the city's
upper suburbs.
Five attacks were repealed by
the Soviet troops and only after
the sixth attack did the Germans
succeed in advancing little,
the Soviet command said.
I'm this fighting, the enemy
suffered heavy losses. In one Sec
tor alone, our troops wiped out
900 Hitlerites and destroyed IL
German tanks"
Dispatches to the Soviet gov
eminent newspaper Izvestia said
this furious assault gained the
Germans only 200 to 800 yards,
and declared the Nazis paved the
way for their advance by raining
5000 shells and. countless trench
mortar projectiles into a single
narrow Russian salient.

IRKS BOTH SIDES
Military informants agreed
that the present situation there
was satisfactory to neither the
British nor the Axis, and ROM
mel's presence his week in Ber-
lin was interpreted to mean
that fighting in Egypt will be
one of the German high COM
mand's major preoccupations
this autumn and winter.
Recent information from the
Balkans told of continued heavy
movement of military supplies
toward Greece and Crete for
trans-shipment to North Africa.
But q substantial portion of
this flow is finding its way to the
bottom of the Mediterranean as
a result of air and submarine at
tacks. Much also is being de-
stroyed in continuous raids on
Tobruk and Bengasi.

FDR Secret
Was Well Kept
Axis Evidently
Unowors Of Moves

NEW YORK, Oct. 2.-(P-
Indications were today that al
though President Roosevelt's ma
tion-wire tour of defense plants
was q secret shared by count
less americans, the Axis pow
ers had no inkling of it.
This was in sharp contrast to
the frequency with which the
Axis radio-Berlin especially
reported the movements of
Prime Minister Churchill on his
recent trip to Moscow before
that mission was complete and
censorship on it lifted.
The first Axle mention of the
Roosevelt trip, coming today
from Berlin and cloaked as q
dispatch from Stockholm, was
. labored Interpretation in which
the simultaneous views were
taken that the trip was meant
to ''popularize" the president
and that at the same time it had
been kept secret.
The Berlin broadcast twisted
American press comment to sup
port q conclusion that the re-
Striction on concurrent publ
cation Of the presidents move
ments ''has now proved that he
OMr. Roosevelt) is completely
Wind to arguments favoring
free press In democratic coun-
tyies."
Berlin seemed piqued by the
secrecy.
During the entire period of
the blackout on news of Mr..
Roosevelt's movements none of
the principal American listen
Ing posts heard a line of propa-
ganda that might have indicated
knowledge at Berlin, Rome or
Tokyo Of the trip.
