The fleet apparently followed trawlers which swept the Straits of Taran-to Taran-to clear of mines, rrobable Damage Great The drcadnaughts moved up opposite the Albanian port of Va-lona, Va-lona, where they went into action with their huge 14 and 15-inch guns. The admiralty reported more than 100 tons Of high explosive explo-sive naval shells were poured into the battered seacoast town. It seemed probable the ill-equipped ill-equipped harbor had suffered great damage after an attack of such weight. Meantime, the British cruiser and destroyer force swept on up the Adriatic as far as Bari on the Italian coast, and Durazo, opposite oppo-site Bari on the Albanian shore. Not a sign of Italian warships or shipping was encountered, the British reported, and throughout the operation there was no attempt at-tempt by the Italians to interfere with a major British naval undertaking under-taking in Italy's own "backyard." From a naval standpoint it appeared ap-peared that the Adriatic raid was the most daring the British have yet undertaken. At the time of the seaplane torpedo attack on the Italian fleet at Taranto, light British naval units entered the Adriatic, but an operation by capital ships in narrow waters, presumably . exposed to easy attack at-tack by airplanes and submarines, is in a category by itself. After its dash into the Adriatic, the British fleet sped back to its Alexandria base which had been attacked without damage by Italian Ital-ian planes during the fleet's absence. ab-sence. Other fleet units carried out an almost continuous five day's bombardment of Bardia. the I Italian base in Libya which the British have surrounded.

The emissary was to be dressed a certain way. He was to appear at a certain hour in front of the Santa Rosa postoffice. The instructions were followed except that the emissary was an FBI agent and the box con tained blank paper. One version said the G-man, after walking in front of the post-office post-office for several minutes, was approached by a 13-year-old girl. She gave him a note. The note. from the extortioner, asking the emissary to proceed to a farm two miles west of town, where the money would be accepted.1 There are conflicting versions of what' followed. One says that as the G-man drove to a cabbage patch on the farm, a slight young man stepped out, reached out his hands and the G-man handed over the box. The next moment, however, the man pulled a pistol and stuck it into the G-man's ribs. "Hand over your gun," the man demanded. Helpless, the FBI agent surrendered sur-rendered his gun. s At Quick Sale Reductions! 5l.or'...05.CO and up The best buys in town! All good for a lot of service.
