RUSSIANS BEGINNING TO FORCE PACE Battle For Stalingrad SIGNIFICANT RECENT CHANGE (By Telegraph.—Press Assn. —Copyright.) (Received October 29, 12.25 n.m.) LONDON, October 28. The Moscow correspondent of “The Times” says there is a significant difference in the battle of Stalingrad between now and in September. The Germans sought a broader front iu September, now they are endeavouring to narrow it. It is the Russians who are forcing the pace from the northwest and south of the city. Battles in north Stalingrad went on all night with undiminished violence, with the enemy not gaining an advantage. The Germans are constantly throwing in reinforcements, which serve no more than to compensate for the colossal losses.
Heavy fighting is continuing, near Mosdok and in the Novorossisk area, where the Storm Troop “Viking” Division has been so badly mauled that it has retired to the rear to reform after three weeks of fighting. Berlin Radio describes the Russian resistance in the Caucasus as truly fanatical.
