(AP) Sir Stafford Cripps, retiring British ambassador to Moscow, declared today the Russians hope to de liver the final blow to Germany next fall and winter and that the Soviets "intend to make the con quest of Germany absolutely complete and thorough. In a lengthy press conference, the former ambassador declare J that Joseph Stalin was "10 times as strong" with his people now as he was at the start of the Ger man Invasion last year. In his only reference to Mos cow-Tokyo relations, he declared that Russia and Japan had long standing difficulties which could never be satisfied except by force. The former ambassador, who has just returned after 18 months In Russia, said the Red army now had 9,000,000 men under arms and in the spring would have twice the strength it had at the start of the Russian-German war last June. He said the Russians hope to "deliver the final blow to Germ any during the fall and winter of 1942." Sir Stafford, while praising the Russian successes on the east ern front, warned "against the belief that the German army is routed, as losses on both sides are extremely heavy and the Germans are fighting to the last man." He said Russian production In the Urals had been doubled since the German invasion and that many factories removed piece meal from the front to the west now were coming Into full pro duction again. He expressed the conviction that Russia, with Bri tish and American aid, would be able to equip the Red army to resist any- German attack dur ing the spring and summer. 'The Russians are still send ing equipment to China," he said. EXTORTION LAID TO UTAH BOY, 17 Los Angeles, Jan. 24.

(P) Strong democratic support de veloped in the senate today be hind an effort to force the gov ernment's dollar-a-year men to abandon any political activities or else give up their federal Jobs.

Truman named Cyrus McCor- mick, committeeman from New Mexico, as one of these and added that "I am told there are others."
