ed. Sun Attack Predicted
Informed military circles in
London freely predicted that a
grand-scale nazi assault on
Egypt and the Suez canal, by
way of French-mandated Syria
and Palestine, would break with
in 10 days.
At the same time, these
sources said, other axis columns
striking from Libya would join
in a giant pincer movement.
Premier Mussolini's high com
mand asserted that axis scouts
had put the British to flight and
seized armored equipment in the
region of Salum, Egyptian front
ier post, just over the Libyan
border.
Tobruk Menaced
In the three-weeks-old siege
of the British garrison at To
bruk, 80 miles inside Libya on
the north African coast, British
headquarters at Cairo acknowl
edged that axis troops pene
trated the stronghold's outer de
fenses this morning.
German and Italian infantry
attacked "in some strength,
escorted by tanks," it was said.
"Fighting is continuing," a
i British communique said.
Berlin reported that the luft
waffe .had opened an intensified
offensive in the desert campaign,
bombing British troops columns

2. Reallocation of American
flog ships, including those soon
to be completed, on routes out
side combat zones, in order that
every cargo they carry would be
directly or indirectly useful in
national defense efforts and the
"winning by the democracies of
the battle now being waged in
the Atlantic."
Vessels of all types must be
taken from existing or proposed
trade routes, the president de
clared, to haul vitally needed
defense and war supplies across
the high seas, and the United
States merchant marine must be
expanded with increased speed
"so that ships and more ships
will be available to carry the
food and munitions of war to
the democracies of the world."
Admiral Land summed up the
job this way President Roose

Treasury Working on
Tax Easing Plan
WASHINGTON, May 1 OP)
Secretary Morgenthau announc
ed today the treasury was "work
ing on a plan" to enable citizens
to prepay their taxes under the
heavy rates being considered by
congress.
He said he could not give de
tails, but generally the treasury
was thinking! of selling a special
kind of security which could be
used by tax payers to pay their
taxes instead of paying cash. ,
Thus, a man expecting to pay
$120 income tax could prepare
himself by buying a $10 security
every month of the preceding
year. When tax time came
around, he would turn over the
securities, and avoid the ne
cessity of borrowing money or
disturbing his personal budget
in order to meet his tax bill.
