'The (Continued From Fago One) absence of Prime Minister Churchill in the United Status, but offered littlu oxplnnatimi of uit siitup siiuuOu Qviwnvii VviiiCii pushed thu British eighth nrmy to the Egyptian border. The house, apparently deter mined to fix tho blame for the defeat, cheered when Conserva tive Sir John Wardlaw-Mllne, from Churchill's own party, de clared that some members "no longer have confidence In tile military direction of the war, A group of members dis closed that they were trying to get sufficient signers to a mo tion which if passed would con stitute an overthrow of Church ill and creation of a new cabi net. The proposed motion naked commons to declare "It has no confidence in the central direc tion and general strategy of the war," and appeared based on the old criticism that Churchill, as defense minister, takes too large a nana in mllltnry affairs. Axis Louts Attlee said the axis lost heav ily in tho twin convoy battlo, with a battleship torpedoed and a cruiser of the eight-inch gun Trcnto class and two destroyers sunk, while the British lost four destroyers and two patrol boats in addition to the light cruiser. The convoy from the east passc-d supply ships inio Tobruk he said, and then steamed on to ward Malta. When it was in formed that the Italian fleet was coming out in an attempt to in tercept it, fuel was expended in cruising until British and Ameri can bombers carried out an air attack. The loss in fuel forced the convoy to turn back to Alex andria, he said, but in the mean time the safe arrival at Malta of tho convoy from the west had been assured. As the members demanded to know when Churchill himself would return to give a full state ment and answer the nation's anxious questions, Sir Stafford Cripps, lord privy seal and leader in the house, announced that there would be a two-day debate on Libya soon.
