Defense Army For
West Hemisphere
Will be Enlarged
WASHINGTON. Dec. 27. (AP)
The UiHpatch of nn initial army
garrison to Newfoundland shortly
will swell to 60.000 or more men
the forces already in place to safe
guard the Panama canal and the
new hemisphere defense line in the
Atlantic.
Thn recent announcement that
the Newfoundland base vanguard
would depart enrly In January was
accepted in military quarters today
as evidence of Intent to man with
a minimum or delny the string1 or
offshore buses acquired from
Orent Itrltaln.
The force will be the first sent
to any of those bases. In Puerto
Rico, and Gunntanamo. Cuba, how
ever, and nt the Panama canal it
self, garrisons have been built up
steadily by the army and marine
corps, and are scheduled soon to be
further reinforced.
Along the 4,000-mllo, Irregular
triangular line between New
Foundlund. British Guiana on the
Koutlr American continent, and
Panama, possibly 100.000 soldiers,
sailors nnd marines, soon will be
stationed, on the basis of available
estimates.
The exact size of th units des
tined for any of thn advance bases
is confidential military information
now. It itf no secret, however, that
substantial reinforcements are to
follow the first expedition to New
foundland. The Island's strategic
situation on the shortest Greut
Circle route between Europe and
America mnkes it a key to the de
fense of the industrial northeast
United States.
Advance parties of nrmy engi
neers are at work on the prelim
inaries at virtually all the other
bases. Tomorrow is the date as
signed for establishing a survey
and construction headquarters at
Georgetown, Dritisb Gulnna.

with the least possible loss.
Italian Planes Fought
Pending orders for the final as
sault upon liardia. tbo royal air
torce sought to counter the at-
'empts of Italian fliers to harass
Hritish ground forces by striking
heavily at fascist air bases far to
the west.
Reports from the front indicat
ed that every effort was being
made to sweep the Italians front
tbe air.
A recent increase in Italian
aerial activity, as well as the tac
tics employed by the fascist bomb
ers, led to speculation among the
Hritish that a new air commander
had taken charge on this front.
While the situation around Uar-
dla apparently has not changed
much in the l;st dnv or so. Hritish
mechanized units were said to be
keeping- -the- Italians' - outer . de-.
fenses under steady pressure, thus
contributing to the general "soft
ening up" process nt which the -aerial
and artillery bombardment' J
has been aimed."
Today's Hritish . headquarters
communique was a single sent
ence: "On all fronts the situa
tion remains unchanged."
ROME, Dec. 27 (AP) An Ital
ian seaplane "effectively bombed
an enemy submarine" In waters
off the Libyan coast yesterday, the
high command reported, adding
that artillery actions nnd patrol
activity continued on the north Af-
riinn land trout.
The Italian nir force, the dally
communique said, was "Intensely
active," carrying out bombardments
of front lino base batteries, meeli
nnized equipment and ships in har
bor. '
"Fighter planes engaged in com
bat with a large formation of
Glosters (British warplanes)," the
communique continued, "three en
emy planes were shot down. One
of our planes failed to return."

Tbe president said It was a

that no one in the administration

lie declared If such a plan cnual
