NAZI BOMBERS
 NEVER LET-UP
Continued from Page D

(Continued from Page D cities of Birmingham and Liverpool while Nazi planes attacked ship con- voys as far away as the Irish coast and the east coast of Scotland.
 Two ships totaling 1s,0O0 tons were reported sunk, or set afire and a third was severely damaged. An 8,0O0-ton ship was sunk in the Eng fish channel, the high command said.
 Didn't Reach Berlin
 In regard to the British attacks on the Reich, the high command said that British planes which were "un- successful" in attempts to reach Ber- lin dropped bombs on residential quarters in western Germany.
 British air losses were listed at 79 planes and German at 43 planes. More mines were reported dropped in British harbors.
 Gas works at Bromley were struck with a heavy bomb" the communique said in reference to German raids on London during the night.
 "Oil tanks were set af1re and rail- road stations as wer as war indus tries in Woolwich and other parts of the city were bombed.
 Severe air battles developed. Har- bor works at Dover and Portland and aircraft factories at Southampton were bombed.
 rrbo.a x,,ara fa~r, SofaiIe 0f fl,o prif = ish raids aganist the Reich, but two alarms sounded in Berlin. Two Air Raid Alarms
 It was the first time since the war started more than a year ago that Berlin had had two air raid alarms in one night.
 Anti-aircraft fire was heard in su- burban areas during both raids. Off, cials statements said that the raid- ing planes were driven of before they could reach the city proper.
 The first alarm came at 11:28 p. m. (5:28 p. m. Sundag EDT). After the "all clear" had sounded at 11:55 an official statement said that sev- eral British planes had tried to reach Berlin but had been repulSed before they reached the capital defense bar rage. No bombs were dropped in or around Berlin, the official statement said, and the British planes returned toward the frontier.
 "This renewed British attempt to bomb the Reich capitals civilians will be met by renewed reprisals on London" a spokesman said.
 No planes were seen or heard over Berlin during this raid but brief anti aircraft fire was heard n the far Southeastern area just after the alarm sounded.
 The second alarm was sounded at 1:55 a. m. (7:55 p. m. Sunday EDT) and continued until 2:10 a. m. Continue Attacks Nazis said that German planes had returned to London ac cark last night to continue their attacks. l Discussing British assertions that 185 German planes had been shot down Sunday a Nazi spokesman said that only 185 German planes had taken part in raids on London all day yesterday.
 If anyone really thinks that all the German planes were shot down he is welcome to do so," the Spokes- man said.
 Nazis said that 71 British and 34 German planes were destroyed in air battles yesterday, chiefly over Lon- don.
 It was admitted that the British defense was unusually strong.

 He was graduated from North western University in 1912 and soon became noted as a lecturer, writer and educator. He became editor of Century Magazine in 1921 and pres ident of the University of Wisconsin in 1925 at the age of 38.
