Fierce Fighting at Moscow

KUIBYSHEV, Russian--Soviet Government sources reported today that ferocious fighting raged in the principal sectors of the Moscow front after the Germans launched their third and perhaps decisive assault against the capital.

The new Moscow offensive was now in its third day and Russian reports said that it already was floundering in the mud and ice.

It was claimed that 90,000 Germans have fallen in the two-weeks old Crimson offensive, the only one reported making any progress.
