In helping German troops "in

Meet In Moscow
At the Russians fought des
perately to stem the 45-day -old
nazi offensive, London heard
that delegates of the major Uni-
" ted Rations were gathering in
- Moscow for a "save Russia and
win the war" conference on
grand strategy for a second al
lied front.
British officials maintained st
lence, but it was reported that
representatives of the United
. States, Great Britain, the fight
ing French and Norway were
t either in Moscow or en route.
. Moreover, axis radios for the
past week have been circulating
"unconfirmed rumors" that
Prime Minister Churchill had
' gone to the Soviet capital, along
" with William C. Bullitt, ipeelg!
envoy of President Roosevelt
- London quarters said there
was little doubt that any such
conference would discuss "the
' urgent task of creating a second
front in Europe In 1942," par
tlcularly now that , Russia's
' southern armies are in such
: grave danger.
Japi Attack Feared
' These quarters also cited re

sources recently that Japan, with
. upwards of a half a million
troops reported massed along the
Russian Siberian frontier, plan

: conflicting versions of the battle
came from Moscow and Berlin.
The Germans reported the
- capture of Armavir, on the Baku

..a 50-mile advance from Kropot-

. claimed by the Germans pre

Rostov-Baku railway.
; By contrast with the nazi
claims, a mid-day bulletin from
Red army headquarters gave this
picture of the 350-mile battle-
front:
