HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON February 17, 1048 PAGE TWO s i18 MILES IN POWER DRIVE (Continued From Page One) "Rommel bai got himself a tre mendous amount of elbow room and that may be all he wanted." From SbeiUa, the Germans were only about 81 miles north east of Ferlana, just east of the Algerian frontier and about mid way of the Tunisian front. "The Americans are now using medium General Sherman tanks In defensive action," a head quarters source said. "Even ex perienced troops can be overrun by a sudden heavy tank attack and it Js not surprising that the Americans had to withdraw be cause they held a long line with only light tanks." Mark VI'i Powerful The new German mark VI tanks thrown into Rommel's of fensive have especially heavy ar mor, reported to be up to seven and a half inches thick, and high velocity guns which made them difficult for American anti-tank artillery to stop. Estimates of their size range from 60 to 62 tons, but allied forces have been unable to re trieve any of them sufficiently whole to get exact Information. Two were knocked out by allied artillery a few weeks ago. EDITORIALS ON NEWS . (Continued From Page One) ' ABSORB at one point won't have to be met by our allies on an other front - The Germans could use IN BDSSIA these huge tanks they've burled at us in Tunisia. If we've compelled them to DIVERT to Tunisia powerful' weapons they Deed so badly in Russia, we've helped our Russian allies who have been doing so much to help W. ' --. Things ' like ' that are what ount in a world war. TN the excitement of this new development on the Tunisian plateau, we're apt to overlook one of the day's important deeds. Three British submarines, rov ing the Mediterranean, destroy six and possibly seven axis SUP PLY ships and damage seven more. In the long run, the outcome of the African campaign will de pend upon this battle of the supply lines that goes on cease lessly, day and night. If we can supply and reinforce our armies in' Africa 'and the Germans can,'t, we will win and the Germans' will lose. - OBITUARY WILLIAM FRANCIS SCHOOLER William Francis Schooler, a resident of this community for the last 12 years, passed away suddenly at his late residence in the Henley district on Wednes day morning, February 17, 1943.
