(AP) British mechanized troops have beaten back five small advancing columns of axis troops in the Sa lum area of the Egyptian fron tier, British headquarters for the middle east announced to day. The war bulletin said the axis forces were carrying out recon nnlcnnro "in fnrcp" and advanc ing eastward ' when .they wer met by the British mechanized advance elements to the west and south. The Germans and Italians turn ed back, it said, adding that "our air forces have been afforded particularly good targets by the withdrawing enemy."

ABOARD A BRITISH MEDI TERRANEAN FLAGSHIP, May 13. (AP) Italy's powerful 35,-000-ton battleship Vittorio Veneto is generally believed by the Brit ish to have been sunk. Frequent British aerial recon naissance over Italian seaports since the battle of Mataoan March 28 have failed to disclose nnv trace of the vessel. The apparent failure of Italian radio broadcasts to refer to any return to port by the battleship after the battle of Matapan strengthens this belief.

As deputy to Hitler he would normally have succeeded Ihe fuehrer. But In view of the anili ties and temperaments of the available men, Hitler by formal act chose Goerlng as his imme diate successor. "From the de jure point of view this was an incongruous ar rangement, but on now shown to have been fully justified. The fact Is that Hess was removed from the position which could have made him Immediate suc cessor to the fuehrer." Hess was described as a man, who in the vigor of his powers, performed great service for the party but was retiring by nature and suffering increasingly from physical ailments and tortured especially by sleeplessness.

Hess' Punling Flight May Alter War's Course (Continued from page 1) al man, showing that "Ihe core of Germany was rotten." Brought No Peace Terms . They declared there was no special mission that he brought no peace terms, but still the Brit ish were the beneficiaries of a great propaganda windfall, If not actual military help. The German version was that Hess was a victim of hallucina tions and one of these was an un dying hope for restoration of friendship between Germany and Britain and that he might have reasoned that, through personal sacrifice, he could bring this about. How Hess, now a prisoner of war at some secret place, might advance this concept of what the nazis called his disordered mind was a factor for the manipulation of British intelligence, propagan da and statesmanship. Hess did a fine job of flying for one accused of hallucinations. He reached Scotland from Augsburg, Bavaria, under cover of darkness, hunted for a place to set down his fast Messerchmitt-110, and, failing that, bailed out while the plane crashed in a streak of fly ing wreckage. A farmer, armed with a pitch fork, found him beside the (olds of his parachute, with an Injured leg and took him in. Such an In jury, incidentally, would have been a demerit for one of Adolf Hitler's expert parachute troop ers. Nazi Breach Indicated The British minister of Infor mation, Alfred Duff Cooper, told a jubilant meeting today, that "I can only say that his arrival here shows the first breach In the nazl party that has occurred since Hitler murdered a huge bloc of his own followers on June 30, 1933."

"blood purge" In which Hess helped execute Hitler's orders as one of the oldest and most faith ful of nazl followers. Hess was Hitler's amanuensis In the writ ing of "Mein Kampf" In Lands berg prison. He rose to become his personal representative for party affairs, virtually minister without portfolio in Hitler's In ner circle. Hitler named him at the outset of the war as his sec ond choice for succession to the fuehrershlp, after Marshall Her mann Goering, In event of Hit ler's death. May Bear Information Foremost In the rumor's linked with Hess" dramatic event was that Hess had said he brought Im portant Information about the Germun air force which he wish ed to communicate to the British. This seemed counter to the declaration of one informed source that Hess came merely in defiance of the nazl regime and had no special mission. The British reasoned that Hess flew to Scotland because he anti cipated encountering less air ac tivity there. Foreign office officials went to Glasgow to Interview Hess, seek ing to the utmost any advantage that might accrue to Britain from Hess' arrival. He was taken to a Glasgow hos pital from the Scottish, farm house where he first found help and now presumably has been re moved to another sanctuary, since word In London late today was that he had been taken to a "secret place." Reporters and photographers were not permitted to see him, either at the Glasgow hospital or his later place of confinement. Identification of the 47-ycar-bld former nazl stalwart was es tablished by Ivone Kirkpatrick, who was counselor of embassy and charge d'affaires for the British at Berlin from 19.33 to 1938. This came after a medical examination had found Hess sane and healthy, except for the leg inlury from his parachuting. The British exulted over their prize prisoner. Hess had had a prominent role in Germany until quite recently, they said. He made one of the principal speeches at Hitler's birthday celebration April 20 and sat next to the fue hrer when the fuehrer last ad dressed the relchstag, May 4. Prime Minister Churchill an nounced in the house of com mons today that a further state ment would be made shortly about the surprising flight of I less. Photographs of the wreckage of the Messerchmitt plane from which Hess Is said to have bailed out show the tail punctured by a number of machine-gun bullets. British sources took this as an Indication that pursuers either German or British tiled to bring down the plane. The Mes serschmitt Is a wreck. "Hess is In a hospital bed, an informant said.
