NAZI DENIAL
Alleged Atrocities In Prison Camps RUSSIAN COMPLAINTS Rec. 12.30 p.m. LONDON, Nov. 26. Referring to the Note by M. Molotoff to the non-Axis Powers regarding atrocities perpetrated against Russian prisoners of war, a German communique states: "Desertions of Soviet soldiers are being reported on an increasing scale in the fighting before Moscow. Stalin, to counter this, considers it necessary to issue a Note reporting atrocities by German soldiers to Soviet prisoners.
"The German Army and allied troops regard with the most profound contempt such false reports whereby the bestial conduct of the Bolshevik hordes is screened and their morale is intended to be raised," says the communique.
