was generally described as its most destructive single day's work on axis columns since the Libyan campaign began Figures were not yet available1 but the British bombers and fighters were known to have destroyed 'hundreds of axis machinm of all sorts and to have killed many of their crews with machine gun firel as the men abandoned their vehicles to flee afoot in the desert The R A F's opportunity came as the counterattacking Germans and Italians paused to catch their breaths in the area south and southeast of Bengasi It was seized quickly with first notable results achieved Monday In the constant war in the Mediterranean the admiralty acknowledged its first battleship loss in Barham that seathe 31000-to- n Not Sure Enemy The admiralty said that although axis propaganda agencies had claimed destruction of the warship which mounted eight 15- Inch guns the loss had not been announced until now because it was evident the enemy was not sure of what had happened (The German high

happening in the desert indicated that it was touch and go whether Britain's imperial Eighth army could continue to hold the Germans and Italians in their present positions The British said there had been little change in the last 20 hours with the main battle area still north and ' northeast of Zoulet Maus about 60 miles southeast of Bengasi and about 140 miles northeast of El Agheila The

across the ocean next year two three and even four times as large armies as the considerable forces we are able to handle at present" He spoke warmly of the presence of a vanguard of an American army in the British Isles where "very considerable forces are following aspopportunity may serve He said the mighty British and American navy both in the Atlantic and Pacific plan their moves "as if we literally were one fleet" The prime minister sat down to a certain victory in the coming confidence vote but there nevertheless was sharp criticism Sir Herbert Williams conservative observed sardonically that Churchill was the "only person in 'satisfied with his own the country team" and added that for the prime minister to ask atovote of church confidence "is like going and hearing the parson propose a vote of confidence in God" Churchill Says Hess Sought To Oust Him -- LONDON Jan 27 (An—Prime Minister Churchill told parliament Tuesday that when Rudolf Hess parachuted down onto Scotland eight months ago the nazi leader "firmly believed he had only to in gain access to certainhe cliques described this country for what as the Churchill clique to be thrown out of power and for a government to be set up with which Hitler might negotiate a magnanimous peace" This was the first time that Churchill had confirmed reports that this actually was Hess purpose in making the sensational flight from Germany to Britain Churchill was engaged in telling the house of commons "how very oddly foreigners view our country and its way of doing things" when he told of the Hess episode "The only importance attaching to the opinions of Hess" the prime minister added "is the fact that he was fresh from the atmosphere of Hitler's table" Whether Hess made his flight with Hitler's consent probably will not be known until the war is And it is doubtful if the ended British public soon will learn the full details of Hess' supposed with the duke of HamTEribunt friendship

that the Pacific struggle was being subordinated to the older struggle with Hitler that "there is no question of regarding the war in the Pacific as a secondary operation" Combined Staff Chiefs In this connection he told of the body known as the combined chiefs of staff committee composed of three U S officials and three officers representing the British chiefs of staff committee in London set up in Washington and said that any differences aris4ng through its operation would be adjusted "by personal agreement between President Roosevelt and myself representing our respective governments" He disclosed also the proposed establishments of a Pacific council comprising Great Britain Australia New Zealand and the Dutch East Indies to transmit the "united views' of that body to the chiefs of staff committee in Washington The Australians wanted this csrancil to be set up in Washington he added and New Zealand preferred such a location but President Roosevelt's views were being awaited Suzns Up Situation This essentially was what the prime minister reported of the various theaters: Libya—If British forces had not won a full victory they had at least made "a highly profitable transaction" in killing wounding of the or capturing axis forces or 61000 men But Libya was stillto be held against an enemy who "has certainly received reinforcements" via the Mediterranean Russia—"The Caucasus and the Russian oil fields of Baku and the n oil field are great denied to the enetny" in a victory by the Russians aided by British equipment Thus "the overrunning of all those lands'from the Levant to the Caspian which in turn give access to India Persia the Persian gulf the Nile valley and the Suez canal" had been averted Western Pacific—In this admittedly critical battle the balance both in sea and air power "will surely nchange" there is a cordial union typified by the fact that "we (Churchill and Roosevelt) can say anything to each other however painful" and there are immense increases in British war production—tank production for example doubled in the last six months—"colossal programs" in the United States and "the multiplication of joint ton Salum) - A F
