LONDON ADITS POSITION PLANES STRIKE (Continued from Page One) had sent a British cruiser, a de stroyer and five transports to the bottom and had damaged another cruiser and five other transports. 'The air force attacked Brit ish sea forces successfully be fore Namsos," the communique said, describing yesterday's op erations. "One anti - aircraft cruiser was sunk by two direct hits, one heavy cruiser was dam aged seriously by a direct hit of light caliber. "In addition, one destroyer and five British transports sank after being hit, while five oth ers suffered severe damage." Declaring that "the German advance in Norway continues," the high command reported that German forces had taken more than 4900 prisoners. Of the front, it said merely that "At Trondheim fighting still went on yesterday," without indicat ing how near Trondheim the battle was raging. E (Continued from Page One) parties than the four other counties combined. Klamath county republicans represent' 63.6 per cent of the total republican registration in the district. Klamath demo crats claim 57.7 per cent . of their total. Approximately 56 per cent of all the registered voters in the senatorial district reside in this county. Klamath county has 8120 re publicans, while the aggregate of republicans in the other four counties is 7003. Klamath has 12,125 democrats, against a to tal of .8886 democrats in the other counties of the district - This apparently dominating iposition in the district is of par ticular interest at this time-only in connection . with the republi can nomination for senator, there being no democratic nom ination. " But the situation has an in teresting complication in that three candidates are running for the republican nomination, and two of them are from this coun ty. Senator U. S. Balentine and Marshall Cornett are the Klam ath candidates, while George Brewster of Deschutes county is also running for the nomina tion. The fact that two of the can didates are from Klamath may tend to diminish the importance of the heavy numerical edge enjoyed by Klamath republi cans. It all depends on how Klamath republicans split votes between Balentine and Cornett. Presumably these candidates, between them, will .get nearly all the Klamath vote, although Candidate Brewster is doing some vigorous - campaigning down this way. Both the Klamath candidates, of course, are going after the votes in similar fashion' in Brewster's . home bailiwick in the northern part of the dis trict, and there will be a strong play for Lake county's votes. : , Lake and Deschutes, county are together in one representa tive district, and the only can didate of any political complex ion running for that job is Burt K. Snyder of Lake county. Des chutes is without a man in the field for either nomination 'in U Big, roomy, 5-paston- t4l H II flr, 2-Door Bulckjpodal H.9D II If Sedan, only. . l If Coupe $1091 4-Dr. Sedan $1199 ll I H.E.

It is just possible Brewster and his supporters are arguing to Lake county people that this is a show of friendship and gen erosity that should be rewarded with votes for Deschutes' sena torial candidate. On the other hand, both Cor nett and Balentine. are well known in Lako county, and the friendly ties between Lake and Klamath county are well es tablished. Cornett, In politics for the first time, is proving an active campaigner and is widely known, benator Balentine is a veteran of the political wars who has fought for votes In these counties on several previ ous occasions. The outcome of the senatorial race on the republican side should be one of the mast in teresting of the May 17 pri mary election.

The Germans merely said that the Trondheim column had made contact south west of Storen with another nazi force moving north from Oslo.)
