SALUTE TO STALINGRAD
STEEL CITIES UNITE AGAINST HITLER In a steel casket designed by a Sheffield craftswoman greetings have been sent from Britain's steel clts- to Stalingrad, its opposite number in Russia. Thousands of Sheffield signatures, from bishops to steel moulders, have been appended to the message in which the British city pledges jtsclf to the people of Stalingrad to play its part in achieving a maximum output and so ensure the fullest use of its resources to speed the victory over Hitlerite Germany. Produced under the auspices of Sheffield's Anglo-Soviet Union, whose object is friendship between the British and Soviet peoples, the casket containing the greeting bears the City's Arms, flanked by -the British lion no one side and the Soviet hammer and sickle on the other, with inscriptions in English and Russian . Apart from the silver and enamelled shield, the casket is made entirely in stainless steel.
