L GORDON RUSSIAN AMBASSADOR Maxim Litvinoff, who has made a fair start toward becoming one of the most frank and popular diplo- mats in Washington, was talking to a friend the other day about U. S. losses at Pearl Harbor. He expressed regret that nearly 3,000 men had been lost in that sneak attack, but he went on to say: “If the world knew how many men we lost during the first twenty days that Hitler attacked us, it would be horrified. Our losses were so heavy that for a time we thought we never could recover.

However, only the Nazi troops left to fight a ream guard action have suffered, and this was a relatively small part of Hitler's army. Also the distance they have retreated from Moscow is only 60 to 70 miles. Big question is, therefore, how much damage has been done to the main Nazi army.
