' As to Hitler "peace blitz,"
London quarters declared that
President Roosevelt's historic
"unconditional surrender" con

Churchill In North Africa had

rearguards near Sabratha, 41
miles west of fallen Tripoli and
less than 60 miles from the
Libyan-Tunisian frontier.
On the western' flank of the
two-day allied "squeeze" move
ment, torrential rains hampered
operations in Tunisia but Amer
ican troops were reported to
have advanced six to nine miles
In the Ousseltia valley region,
52 miles inland from the Gulf
of Gabes coast.
Dispatches said the Americans
had brought relief to French
troops cut off east of a moun
tain pass between Ousseltia and
Pont du Fans, 37 miles to the
northeast. --
Reports from widely-separated
points indicated that the axis
was preparing for further with

Africa.,
Tass, the official soviet news
agency, broadcast a report from
Geneva that Italy had requisi
tioned all merchant marine
coastal ships, fishing schooners
and private motor boats for im

ports, within a quick run of
Tunisia. These, admittedly,
might be for reinforcements,

JAP VICTORY

Guadalcanal island "continued
to advance to the west despite
stiff enemy resistance." Forty
Japanese were killed and five
prisoners taken, the navy said.
Burma British headquarters
reported that RAF bombers
struck new "softening up" blows
against Japanese positions on
Akyab island and along the
Mayu peninsula above Akyab.
Australia Worried
Australia For the second
time in recent weeks, Australian
government quarters expressed
belief that Japan was "preparing
a major military operation
against the north coast of the
down-under commonwealth.
These quarters said informa
tion had been received that the
Japanese were increasing their
concentration of troops and ship
ping in areas from which north
ern Australia would be threat
ened.
Meanwhile, Gen. Douglas Mac-
Arthur announced that allied
casualties in the Papuan cam
paign in New Guinea, where a
15,000-man Japanese army had
been exterminated, amounted to
less than half the enemy's losses.
Gen. MacArthur said allied
figures included the sick as well
as the killed and wounded.
Many American and Australian
troops were stricken with fever
during the fighting In swamps
and jungles.
"Probably no campaign In
history against a thoroughly pre
pared and trained army pro
duced such complete and deci
sive results with a lower expen
diture of life and resources,"
Gen. MacArthur said.
With the New Guinea land
front quiet, allied warplanes re
newed the assault on Japanese
bases in the South Seas, blasting
at Lae, Salamaua and Finschha
fen, in New Guinea, and ranging
far out to attack the enemy air
drome at Gasmata, New Britain,
and targets on Kai and Aroe is
lands. Errol Flynn v

had .testified that he was in
troduced to her by phone by her
sister, Mickey June Satterlee,
and that subsequently she had
visited with him and his friends
aboard his yacht at Balboa, a
nearby beach resort.
Flynn said she had practically
invited herself on a subsequent
voyage to Catalina island, when
the state' alleges the offense oc
curred. Flynn explained that
the trip was made to get photo
graphs for a national magazine,
and that girls were suggested
for atmosphere.
Peggy's name was proposed,
he said, by James Fleming, his
stand-in, and Flynn had respond
ed "that's fine."

Duesseldorf, a center of trans

northwest Germany, is 160 mllos
southwest of the Wilhelmshaven
naval base which, with Emden,
was heavily pounded yesterday
by United States heavy bomb

in a communique broadcast
from Berlin, sought to discount
the effect of the Amorican

"Then he said he hadn't seen

Wilson later aroused two mil
itary policemen and told them
to stand guard at each end of
car D.
Two other occupants of car
D heard Mrs. James say, "I can't
take this any longer," and then
shout, "My God, this man is
killing me," before she
screamed.
"I didn't hear her speak,"
Wilson said. "I wish I had.
Maybe I could have saved her."
Wilson was detained because,
the district attorney said, "He
simply has too much vital testi
mony for us to release him."
John Funches, 30, a dining
car waiter held as a material
witness, was released.

- Another development to con
cern the lawmakers was a com
plaint that President Roosevelt
docs not confide sufficiently in
congress. The protests brought
renewed requests for creation of
a bipartisan "lialsoii" committee
to bring about a better under
standing between the White
House and the capltol.
Four senate committee mem
bers who took the plan for a
"liaison" committee under ad
visement, showed little enthusi
asm for it.
Formation of such a commit
tee was urged after both Senator
Maloncy (D-Conn.) and Senator

that the president had requested
