Cairo, July 16 (P) Heavy bombers of the United States army air forces made a daylight attack on the axis base of Ben gasi, Libya, yesterday, starting a large dock fire. The bombing was one phase of the continuing battle of the western desert, in which RAF and allied airmen attacked Ben gasi and Tobruk, both far west of the fighting zone, and at tacked the axis armies "In force" at the front. On the ground the German- Italian forces of Marshal Erwin Rommel were reported to be giving ground on the central front west of El Alamein, but British headauarters acknowl edged that the Germans had achieved some gains in the coastal zone and "partially suc ceeded" in reestablishing them selves at Tel El Eisa. British Move Up As the result of an attack launched before dawn yester day, British troops pushed for ward in the central sector to secure objectives at the western end of a ridge south of El Ala mein, a communique said. Prisoners were taken, out their numbers are not known," the bulletin added. The assault apparently was launched to relieve pressure on Australian forces holding re cently-won positions at ei i Eisa the "Hill Of Jesus" ana evidently was at least partly successful, for the communique announced that imperial troops continued to hold high grouna in that area. Enemv forces wnicn succeed ed In occupying positions at Tel El Eisa Tuesday night were heavily bombarded all aay yes t.rH.v hv British artillery and planes and a number of axis tanks were knocked out of ac tion, the bulletin reported.
