'(Continued from pape 1)
ha begun," It added.
Aside Irom the Sevastopol
base, the Crimea Is strategically
Important for two other reasons:
1. Its eastern extremity guards
the narrow strait Into the sea of
Azov.
2. Troops crossing the strait
would have a short-cut route Into
the Caucasus.
Although Sevastopol la Rus
sia's main naval base on the
Black sea, authoritative London
quarters said its capture would
not be disastrous to the soviet
fleet. Baso facilities could be
transferred across the sea to
Batumi or Novorossisk, on the
Caucasian mainland.
Moscow Thrust Weaker. -
On the bloody front before Mos
cow, the Russians acknowledged
the development of a menacing
new thrust by the Germans to
the vicinity of Volokolamsk, 72
miles northwest ol the soviet
capital, about midway between
Mozhaisk and Kalinin.
Soviet front-line reports, how.
ever, declared that the Germans
had lost 60 per cent of their ef
fectives in the past few days of
savage fighting around Moscow
and that it had become apparent
the invaders would not take the
city.
A red army bulletin sold Gen
eral Zhukhov's defense forces,
under no-retreat orders, had re
captured four villages northwest
Of Moscow,
Throughout the night, the so
viet communique said, fighting
raged In the familiar regions of
Mozhaisk, 57 miles west of Mos
cow. Maloyaroslavets, 65 miles
southwest, and the new sector of
Volokolamsk, t
Bad weather conditions con
tinued to hamper the movement
of troons and vehicles struggling
over mud-bogged roads and
fields.
German military reports eon-
ceded that the Russians were
launching strong counter-attacks,
especially in the Kalinin sector,
but withheld details.
Hitler's Schedule Upset
The Russia newspaper Pravda
acknowledged "great danger" at
Moscow, the Donets basin, the
Crimea and Rostov, but declared
that Adolf Hitler's prediction ot
virtory before winter had col
lapsed. Pravda said the nazl high com
mand had thrown almost the en
tire German land army, artillery
and tanks, and nine-tenths of the
air force into the Russian cam
paign. ,
"The enemy lias not yet been
halted. He Is still pressing on de
spite heroic resistance and counter-attacks'
by the Had army.
which is strewing the route of
advance of the nazl troops? with
heaps of German corpses. ,.
' "Nevertheless, ' It is perfectly
clear1 that no temporary suc
cesses can bring Germany her
desired victory and peace."
.Travelers arriving outside the
U. S. S. R. from Kuibyshev, mix-
Mary soviet capital, said the first
15 davs of November would
probably bo the most crucial pe
riod In Russia's straggle.
Aerial activity surged to peak
violence over the snow-covered
battletront, with nazl bombers
heavily attacking Industries and
supply lines In Moscow Itself
while soviet warplunes struck
back at German troops in the
field.
A Russian communique said a
single Red air unit In three days
had destroyed 27 nazl tanks, 135
ammunition tracks and n large
ammunition dump.
"Nearly one nnd n half batta
lions of enemy Infantry were an
nihilated by bombs nnd machine
gun fire," the communique said.
Nazis Start Digging In
Russian dispatches said that
Germans were digging trenches
and tank traps, essentially de
fensive works, in some areas be
fore Moscow in an effort to con
solidate earlier gains against so
viet counterattacks.
This followed reports that
trench warfare had developed in
the siege of Leningrad.
Germons declared today that
that northern city was being sub
jected to an ever-increasing bom
bardment by German artillery
nnd planes, with aerial raiders
dropping half-ton and one-ton

Artillery was the weapon of
which Moscovltes boasted. The
hammering of Red army bat
tarles before the capital, linked

Impregnable.

British Convoy Blasted
At sea, Hitler's high command
credited nazl U-boats with sink
ing 14 ships totalling 47,000 tons
In a six-day pursuit of a convoy
traveling from Gibraltar to Eng
land. An escorting British destroyer
was also torpedoed and sunk, the
high command said, and almost
the entire convoy was wiped out.

problem of work stoppages af

for action increased with the
overnight threat of a general

The general strike threat arose
from the protracted CIO dispute

national director of the CIO

but to use the economic strength

ate to obtain fuel for their blast

Steel Firms Receptive
The United States Steel corpor
ation told the national defense
mediation board yesterday It was
willing to accept the board's re
cent offer to decide the dispute
an offer which contained the
proviso that both parties to the
dispute must agree in advance
to accept the board's decision as
final.
This morning the Voungstown
Sheet and Tube company tele
graphed it was also willing for
the board to decide the dispute,
If principal other companies in
terested agreed and if the pro
cedure set no precedent.
But the Weirton Steel company
and the Wheeling Steel corpora
tion, whose interests likewise
are affected, notified the board
that they preferred another ai
ternative that the dispute be
settled by a joint board made up
of miners and operators.
Peace Outlook Poor
U. S. Steel's action, however,
was taken as an advance hint
that Taylor would present some
such settlement proposal to
Lewis, and that prospect dimmed
the conference's chances for suc
cess from the outset.
Ia-wIs already has assailed the
mediation boards handling of
the captive mine controversy,
and it seemed unlikely that he
would consent to entrust the dis
pute to the board again for a de
cision which would be binding
upon the union and management.
President Roosevelt indicated
yesterday that he had under con
sideration new legislation de
signed to cope with defense
strikes in general, but he avoid
ed direct comment on the captive
coal mine stoppage.
On capitol hill, the discussion
of legislation was specific, and
while some proponents of anti-
strike measures were encouraged
by tho disclosure that the presi
dent was studying the subject,
others were manifestly in no
mood to wait.
In house circles. talk was heard
of seeking action on a bill by

WELDERS' PICKET LINE AT
SHIP YARDS AGAIN CRASHED
SEATTLE, Oct. 29 fAP) A
mild outbreak of violence flared
again today at the Lake Wash
ington shipyard across Lake
Washington at Houghton as
workers, protected by AFLSeat
tle metal trades council mem
bers, crashed a
striking welders to enter the
plant.
Deputy Sheriff Paul Bell,
caught in a melee of massed
pickets and the rushing work
ers, was knocked down but un
hurt. Fifteen deputies, led by
Undcrsheriff Louis J. Forbes and
Capt. Ed Storgaard, restored or
der. Three state patrolmen were
also on the scene.
The plant management report
ed later nearly 90 per cent of
the workers were on the job.
Welders, part of 1,700 In the
Puget sound area who have walk
ed out in protest against the
American Federation of Labor's
refusal to grant them a separate
international union, were ringed
around the plant at 8 a. m. when
non strikers started to enter the
yard.
A call, "come on, men, let's
shove 'em down the road," came
from the metal trades' sound
truck and the rush began.
Strike Ranks Broken.
In Seattle, shipyard workers
went to jobs without clashes
with pickets and tho metal trades
council said an even larger pro
portion was returning to work
than yesterday. Few striking
welders, however, went back to
the yards. At Houghton yester
day, "flying wedge" tactics were
used to get men into the plant
and lift fights ensued.
Meantime, a welders' spokes
man, replying to an office of pro
duction management demand
that the striking welders return
to v. oik in shipyards and other
defense Industries here and at
Taeoma, said any such notifica
tion should come directly from
the white house.
