slain In this advance, the Rus
sian communique declared.
Nails Face Trap Threat
Capture of Krlvol Rog would
virtually seal off the tens of
thousands of Cermans huddled
In Dnepropetrovsk and In the
Dnieper bend above Melitopol,
where the Russians were report
ed to be methodically cleaning
out last-ditch nazl units who have
been stubbornly holding out for
more than n week. Some of the
bloodiest finrhtlng of the warwas
going on inside the citv, with the
red armv spearheads Inching
slowly forward at bayonet point,
front dispatches said.
Elimination of the German
forces in the Ilnlener bend,
which the Russian communique
indicated was practically assur
ed after yesterday's advances,
would leave the way open for a
swift red armv drive across the
steppes to Perekop peninsula and
the mouth of the Dnieper river
where It flows Into the Black
Sea.
Unless the nazls make good
their escape from their Crimean
positions, thev face the possi
bility of a debacle unequalled
since Stalingrad.
Nazi Onsets Beaten Back
North of Kiev and south of
Rechitsa, the Moscow war bulle
tin said, the Germans were fall
ing back before determined red
army thrusts across the Dnle
per. The nazis were counterat
tacking in the Kiev area, per
haps to cover reported prepara
tions to evacuate the Ukrainian
capital, but these assaults were
all beaten back the soviet com
munlnue stated.
With the collapse of the entire
German line based on the Dnie
per river now possible, the next
natural barrier to the west Is
along the Hue river, 100 miles
southwest of Krlvol Rog at Its
nearest point, where the nazls
are said to have Installed an
elaborate "defense In depth" to
protect the Bessarahian frontier.
STOCKHOLM, Oct. 21 f AD
German military experts are pre
dicting that the next big Rus
sian offensive will strike the
Leningrad sector, Swedish cor
respondents reported from Ber
lin todav.
Coastal guns which the Ger
mans moved from Sevastopol to
the Leningrad sector last winter
have been shelling the city In an
effort to disrupt an offensive.
The Germans, fearing the Rus
sians would launch an attack
from Leningrad In coordination
with hlows from Nevel, have
been fortifying the defense line

warning residents of the Baltic

Forecasts Considered
