Maw Zealand Troop
Fresh New Zealand troops,
fighting with the bayonet at
close quarters, bolstered the
British defense while the streng
thened United States air power
dropped bombs steadily on the
axis vehicles and bases. A
United States military observer
Just back from the front said the
situation was somewhat im
proved. An RAF communique said
that last night, as on the previous
night, the Americans heavily
raided axis ground forces west
of Matruh, setting numerous
fires among armored vehicles,
transports and grounded planes;
and that a raid on Tobruk set
large fires and hit an axis sup
ply ship amidships.
Second Bald
The Germans raided Alexan
dria last night for the second
time in 24 hours, killing 12 per
sons and wounding 14. Raid
alarms also sounded at Cairo
and ooints in the Nile Delta.
Some axis armored groups
were caught by surprise outside
their tanks during the night and
wiped out by Britons wielding
bayonets and burling hand gre
nades. New Zealanders played
an important part in these as
saults. The American military ob
server. Just back from the fight
ing front said, "while the situa
tion cannot be classed as good
after such reverses as have
been suffered in the desert, it
certainly is not hopeless and
looks better now than a few
days ago.

fixed the semi-rocket character
of the new German terror.
The slenderness of the barrel
and the light weight is the tip
.that the gun is partly merely a
projecto r. It is not heavy
enough to fire an 88 millimeter
shell full range, unless made of
some secret new alloy, an' in
terpretation precluded by the
Cairo dispatch.
The British soldiers could see
the tails of fire from these
shells. .

Mr and Mrs. Veatch Report
Cold Weather in East, Too
Mr. and Mrs. Elbert S. Veatch
returned Monday night from a
two months motor trip that took
them as far east as Cleveland,
where Veatch attended the Ki
wanis International convention,
and Canton, O., where they visit
ed their son-in-law and daughter,
Mr. and Mrs. E. A. McDonell.
They loft her April 21. and
encountered snowstorms as far
east at Nebraska, an especially
violent one, approaching a bliz
zard, occurring between Laramie
and Cheyenne, where for several
hours they followed a snowplow
that was itself barely able to
negotiate the heavy snow. Re
turning by the northern route
through the Dakotas and Mon
tana, they ran into snowstorms
again at Yellowstone park.

weary defenders.
TN Egypt, the British seem to
be planning to make their final
stand on the strip of hard ground
between the Mediterranean and
the Quattaro depression, with
the sea protecting their right
wing and the depression their
left
That is a historic position for
final stands.
TIE sure to read Howard Blake
lee's dispatch in this news
paper today, telling of the belief
that Rommel's 88-millimeter
anti-tank gun is really a
ROCKET CANNON.
The point is that by use of the
rocket principle Rommel was en
abled with a light gun to OUT
RANGE the British and U. S.
tanks and smash them while they
still couldn't reach him.
(As if, armed with a 30-30,
you were fighting someone
armed with a .22.)
VTOTE also today that it was
- U. S. army bombers, striking
at the enemy in probably the
LONGEST OVER-WATER

smashing their installations there
so badly they will be useless un

tald Tuesday, "Monday wai the
only sunny day all day long on
the entire trip. Generally speak
ing the weather was cold and
wet, and on the way back wa
ran through heavy ratnt that re
sulted in delaying washouts. I
think we saw every kind of
weather there is. including a few
warm days."
Both were greatly impressed
by the industrial activity in tha
middle west around the big fac
tory towns, all of which are con
gested with war workers. There
is evidence on every hand, they
say, of war prosperity, but liv
ing costs are extremely high,
especially food prices, and mer
chandise appears to be becoming
scarcer.
