Moscow also broadcast an ap-

meeting yesterday to athletes
of America and Britain to open
a second front, it told of the
odds against which Russia was
fighting and said:
There is no time to wait.
Not only from the air must you

Athletes of Germany and the
Baltic republic were called on

uprisings when the time comes.
Viscountess Aston, American
born woman member of the
House of Commons, whose
Thames estate gave the name
to the "Cliveden Set" made a
speech at Oldham Saturday in
which she said:
Il am grateful to the Russians
but they are not fighting for
us, they are fighting for them
selves. After the Battle of Bri-
tain it was America who came
to our aid. The Russians at that
time were Germany's allies, and
only now that they are facing
the Germans have they come
into the fight. To hear people
talk you would think they came
to us in our own dire need.
Nothing of the kind. 1t was
America, and don't you forget
it. II America hadn't come to
our aid when she was neutral
we should never have carried
on the war. Together we could
guarantee the freedom of man.

utterances, made another out

likely to create bad blood be-
tween allies whose fates depend
on each other.
"The best one can say about

know what mischievous tongue
she has. This woman should
remembe- how strongly she
supported the Municheers be-
fore the war, and keep her

The Germans said the Russian
rear guard was being forced
south from the Yeya river which
runs through Kushchevka to
Taganrog Bay, the northeastern
arm of the sea of Azov. The
Berlin cOmmunique said other
German forces which crossed the
Don south of Tsimlyansk were
rolling the Russians back to the
East, between the Sal and the
Don rivers. This would indicate
German effort to widen their
Caucasus wedge between Rostov
and Tsimlyansk.

In the Tsimlyansk area (mid-
way between Salsk and Stall

pulsed. The enemy left IL dis
abled tanks and more than 1000
ocffeirs and men killed on the
field. In an other sector a de-
tachment of Soviet marines dis
abled eight enemy tanks and
killed 700 German officers and
men
In the Kletskaya area the
Germans attacked in a number
of sectors with infantry and
tanks supported by aircraft
which bombed Soviet troop pos
itions. Our troops firmly with

flung them back to their orig
inal positions.
The Germans were dropping
parachutists in come key reg
ions across the Don and in addi-
ton the Russians reported find

were executed in one sector.
Presumably these were fifth

mediately from what group of
the Soviet peoples they had been
