THE TIMES WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 17 1943
KHARKOV FALLS
CITY TAKEN AFTER FIERCE STREET FIGHTING
GERMAN S.S. ARMY CORPS ROUTED
RUSSIANS ADVANCING ON TAGANROG
The following special Soviet report was issued last night:-
On February 16 our troops, after a determined attack which eventually led to fierce street fighting, captured the city of Kharkov.
In the fighting for Kharkov our troops routed the German S.S. army corps, “The Reich,” and the “Adolf Hitler” tank division, the “Greater Germany” motorized division, and a number of German infantry divisions and special German units.
GOVERNMENT POLICY ON BEVERIDGE PLAN
ACCEPTANCE IN PRINCIPLE WITH SOME RESERVATIONS
LIVELY EXCHANGES IN THE COMMONS
The Government’s acceptance in principle of the Beveridge Report on social security was announced in the House of Commons yesterday by Sir John Anderson. He indicated the rejection of some of the proposals, and said there could be no final commitments at this stage.
Last night the executive body of the Labour Party decided to table an amendment expressing dissatisfaction at the Government’s policy and urging reconsideration with a view to “early implementation of the plan.”
