HEAVY PRESSURE
APPLIED BY GERMANS ON SOUTH-WESTERN APPROACH TO MOSCOW. INTENSE FIGHTING ON SOUTHERN FRONT. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 9.25 a.m.) LONDON, October 23. The Exchange Telegraph Agency’s Kuibyshev correspondent says the gravest situation has developed in the direction of Malo Yaroslavets, where the Germans, continually reinforced, are showing no signs of relaxing their pressure. The Russians are also bringing up reserves and periodically counterattacking, fighting day and night. “The "Pravda” reports that great battles are raging on the approaches to the Crimea and that Red Army units were compelled to give some ground when the full weight of the German offensive was experienced, but now are striking back hard against the enemy. The Moscow radio admits that the situation is very tense in the area of the town of Stalin and bitter fighting is continuing in the 'Donetz basin.
