to be preparing the German home

The Berlin radio broadcast
dispatch : from an eastern front
sector saying that the army had
protected the hinterland and en
abled the German command to
"erect new defenses' which will
stand up to all future soviet at
tacks. In the disengagement move
ments which have been carried
on, certain territory had to be
given up; but nothing fell Into
soviet hands undamaged."
Moscow's midnight communique
as recorded here by the soviet
monitor reported that the heaviest
fighting for Orel was north and
northwest of the city, where more
than 40 villages were overrun by
the advancing Russians in -violent
fighting. One unit wiped out a
battalion of German infantry and
captured nine ta n k s and other
material. - r
- South and southwest of the city
the red army occupied; 26 -villages
and wiped out 100 German offi
cers and men. Two places in this
area especially mentioned among
the captured were described as
"strongly fortified "by the enemy."
Altogether, at least 2400 Ger
mans were killed in the various
Orel sectors, and much booty was
taken. J :'.vy -:
In the Donets basin area south
west of Voroshilovgrad the' Rus
sians beat off heavy German in

"K group of 60 to 80 enemy

soviet positions," the communique
said. "Enemy infantry ' followed.
Our units successfully repulsed
the enemy tanks and the infantry

people. Shame- has come .to: our
