and set another afire, with the
Germans and British each losing a
plane.
All British shipping and naral
operations in the channel now are
greatly hampered, they said, be
cause of extensive destruction at
Portsmouth. Portland, Dover and
the Isle of Wight,
The Germans appeared to be
bombing the British coast section
by section.
Barely an hour after the battle
was resumed this morning, Ger
man fighters radioed back the
British were showing evidences of
the Sunday raids by refusing to
come out and fight.
Instantly, German observers
jumped to the conclusion: "We
already have established air su
periority over the channel."
"This Is the first sign of brok
en British resistance," they de
clared.
Throwing fresh pilots Into the
battle, the Germans conducted
their operations on a "free chase1
basis,' which was interpreted as
meaning they could strike -where
they pleased. f
As the fight progressed. Its ear
ly stages Indicated the type of
battle military observers have ex
pected for a long time to be
launched In the battle for Eng
land.
First, they predicted would
come a steady stream of fighters
to force the British out of the air,
then destructive raids on channel
ports and sea bases, silencing of
shore; batteriee and finally, pos
sible landing of troops convoyed
across the channel.
Except for the order to German
pilots to hunt out their own fights
there ! was not the slightest hint
from the high command that the
long awaited, drive had started.
So far the "wave on wave" of
dive bombers thst distinguished
power attacks against defense po
sitions on the western front have
not developed against any Eng
lish port or Interior point.
When that comes. Germans say,
that will be something else
again.!"
"The English are trying to
avoid . fights," a spokesman for
German pilots said. "Their pur
suiters open fire at long range.
then withdraw.
"This enables us to go to work
on British sea bases. For instance,
we swept down on Portland and
Weymouth , with ease yesterday,
firing oil tanks, bombing the har
bors and shipyards and swung
down on convoys bringing In sup
plies through the channel bottle
neck or painfully hugging the
shore of the North sea."
DNB declared 40 British planes
were downed In a siagle battle
today over Portsmouth. '
"Then came a a n 1 e kr attack
against a balloon barrage near
Dover," It said. "In this action
several balloons were brought
down and anti-aircraft batteries
bombed."

Profiteering in
Alaska Charged
JUNEAU. Alaska, Aug. 12-An-
chorage business men were criti
cised here by Rep. J. Buell Say
der (D-Pa) for what he charged
was "profiteering" at the expense
of army personnel by skyrocket
ing the price of rent, food and
clothing.
Snyder, chairman of the house
sub-committee on army national
defense appropriations, is In
Alaska with other committeemen
looking over air bases. Bis party
expects to fly to Seattle tomorrow
morning on the Alaska clipper.
"The business men of Anchor
age, as I see it, are making a big
mistake, Snyder said on his. ar
rival here. "As soon as they learn
ed that $12,000,000 was to be
spent they shot up rents anywhere
from SO to 200 per cent and in
creased the price of foodstuffs
and clothing . accordingly.
"Consequently army officers
are getting together in a group
to build their own homes instead
of paying enormous rents. Ton
can't blame them. If Anchorage
people were wise they should vis
ualise that the army base la go
ng to be there a long time. They
should cooperate with the army
so the payroll win be spent there.
"In Fairbanks (where another
base is under way) a different at
titude was shown. I fouad mer
chants and business men did not
raise their prices there.
Snyder said that for the "next
two, three or four years' the ar
my will "spend from $12,000,000
to $1S,000.000 annually in Alas
ka establishing air fields, base
and posts.
