-
Premier
Joseph
Stalin
gravely
told
Russia's
allies
tonight
that
failure
to
open
a
second
front
would
result
in
catastrophe
for
them.
He;
at
the
same
time,
assured
his
own
people
that
there'
would
be
such
an
Allied
offensive
"sooner
or
later."
Stalin
said
that,
because
of
the
lack
of
a
second
front,
the
Germans
had
been
able
to
break
through
the
;
-.
Russian
lines
last

for
a

drive

southeastward
which
had
car-
ried
them
to
the
banks
of
the
Volga,
Into
Stalingrad
and
deep
Into
the
Caucasus.
Stalin
declared:
"I
think
no
1
other
army
or
country
could
have
stood
up
to
such
an
onslaught."
