AS these words are written, the Syrian armistice seems to be jelling. Vichy (wholly under the Ger man thumb) refused the British terms. Whereupon General Dentz. the French commander in Syria, took matters into his own hands. London says the Syrian fighting stopped at mid night and that a French dele gation has left Beirut to meet the British and negotiate terms of surrender.

July 12 (&) The ian high command renorted to day a big air fight over the British island1 of Malta in which it said four British planes were shot down attempting to ward off an Italian raid yesterday on uie micaDDa airport. Other British planes were de stroyed on the ground, the high command said. More than 100 planes were said to have taken nart in h battle, described here ax the biggest fought yet in the Mediterranean. Read the Classified page. Six Killed in Raid on Suez CAIRO, Egypt, July 12 (JPh The Egyptian government ac knowledged that axis air raid ers had scored some damage in an air raid early today on the Suez canal in which, it said, six persons were, killed and 14 in jured. The government's announce ment said: "There was an air raid on the Suez canal area in the early hours of this morning. A num-: ber of bombs were dropped, : killing six persons, injuring 14 and causing some material dam age. Alerts were sounded in ' parts of the delta." i (Continued from Page One) artillery had smashed German attempts to cross rivers along which Russians were massed in anticipation of a major assault. One dispatch said the Ger mans laid nine pontoon bridgos on "X" river, three of which were destroyed by bombers while troops and heavy tanks were crossing. However, using the remaining bridges, one tank battalion and up to two Infantry battalions and an artillery unit with 22 anti-tank guns forced their way to our bank," the dispatch wont on. "After that our artillery and aviation destroyed all pontoon bridges on which tanks, artillery and a considerable number of in fantry wore annihilated. "Cut off from the bank, the German troops were caught In a pincers by soviet troops and an nihilated. Up to 30 tanks' crews surrendered and 429 German men and officers were taken prisoner." In lieu of official claims, the communist party organ Pravda reported that the city of Plnsk, deep in the marshes of the samo name and far behind the Ger man lines, remained in soviet handswith forces there raiding the German rear. Plnsk lies 140 miles southwest of Bobruisk, the approximate front. On the German side and like wise in place of any official claims, the German news agen cy, DNB, said that despite rain, nasty terrain and heavy Russian tank and infantry opposition, German troops yesterday pushed their foe back all along the southern sector of the big battle front. Exact positions were not given. Four German tanks which reached Plnsk, Pravda said, were destroyed and their crews captured. The tanks had run out of gas. The red army is counting high ly on such behind-the-lines resis tance by surrounded portions of its forces and by roving guerril la bands. Pravda said 100 guer rillas raided a German mechan ized unit in the Berezina river region, killed 150 Germans and forced others to flee. ine rea air force was credited with fresh blows at German me chanized and motorized forces as well as raids on airfields and This picture shows a group of Klamath men in conference on the quoitlon of Inducing the state to match $150,000 federal funds for the Sprague River road.
