But the most savage fighting
was between British Hurricane and
German Messerschmidt squadrons
during a dive bombing attack on a
southeast coast town.
German fighter bombers roared
down on the town in steep dives
hurting themselves through an in
tense anti-aircraft barrage and each
dropping its single bomb on the
coast targets.
British fighters raced in to in
tercept the attacking craft and
chase them back into the clouds over
the channel. where fighting was
heard for a long period.
Officials also disclosed that the
famous church of st. Martin in
the Fields, in the corner of Trafal-

admiralty reported today that the
air arm of the fleet had devastated
the main units of the Italian flee
in a raid on Taranto harbor Mon
day night. virtually destroying twC
battleshipS. two cruisers and tive
auxiliary craft.
The planes. presumably operating
from an aircraft carrier, caught

Despairing of line battle against

Admiral Sir Andrew Cunningham
British commanderin- chief on the
Mediterranean. put i'll practice the
old theory of Lord Nelson: Go III
and get them if they won't come
out"
The British planes did the work
surface craft could not do, because
of the italian shore defenses. The
result. announced today after they
had been confirmed by photographs
taken by British reconnaissance
planes. were given cut by the ad-
miralty as follows:
One battleShip of the Littorio
class down by her bows until her
forecastle is under water and list
ing heavily to starboard. There are
four ships of this class, two newly
built and two still building They
are of $4,000 tons, mounting nine
l6-inch guns and numerous small
er guns and carrying 1000 officers
and men.
One battleship of the Conte di
Cavour class, beached with her
stern under water up to the after
turret and listing heavily to star
board There are four ships of this
class. all newly reconditioned. They
are of 23,622 tons, mounting lO
12-inch and many smaller guns.
Another battsleship of the Cavour
class possibly damaged, but details
withheld pending further recon-
naissance.
Two cruisers listing to starboard
and surrounded by fuel oil
Two auXiliaries lying with theiI
sterns under water.
The British apparently had given
new talking points to the argu-
mentS of "airplaneS VS.. battleShips.
So far in this war, no nation has
admitted the loss of a battleship
to bombing planes. The Germans
claimed to have sunk an unidenti-
fled British battleship with aerial
bombs early in the war but the
British denied il.
The Italian ships we're safe from
surface attack behind coastal bat
terieS, but not from the air.
In ordering the aerial attack,
Cunningham tested a new theory
as well as the old one of Nelson's
because never in any war had air
forces been sent exclusively into
major battle against ships of The
line.
The British fliers faced not only
the concentrated fire of shore bat
teries. but a tremendous wall of
fire from the Warships pompoms,
guns, and high angle ships
cannon.
They attacked, however, in the
same spirit that the cruiser Cossack
went in and got" German prison
ship Altmark in a Norwegian ford
last winter. and the Exeter, Ajax
and Achilles got" the German
pocket battleship Graf Spec off
Uruguay.
