RENEWED FURY
German Attacks On Stalingrad
CLAIMED AS FINAL ASSAULT
LONDON, October I 6. The expected German offensive against Stalingrad has begun and German forces are once more smashing against the city. Yesterday tank and-infantry attacks were launched by the Germans. All were held except in the factory area in the north-west of the city, where after hard fighting, the Russians had to give some ground. In another sector, the Russians wiped out 30 tanks.
The Germans officially announce that the present fighting is heavier than ever and that the German High Command is convinced that Stalingrad will be captured in one tremendous push. Outside the city to the north and south, the relieving Russian forces have advanced. In the Caucasus, the Germans are no nearer the Grozny oilfields, their latest heavy attacks having all been thrust back.
