Rome Claims Destruction
OF British Detachment

ROME, Dec. % (P).-Italy's high
command today announced destruc-
ton Of a British mechanical detach-
ment and capture of its crews in a
swift offensive thrust by an Italian
motorized column in the sector of
besieged Libyan Bardia
Italian warplanes co-operated, it
was stated.
simultaneously, an Italian naval
unit pounded British armored de-
tachments along the coast with
shellf1re, scattering them and re
ducing motor-transported artillery
to silence" the communique said.
Effective bomber attacks on Brit
ish front-line bases presumably
those encircling two Italian divisions
at Bardia) were reported, and, it
was stated, "our fighter planes
maintained lively combats with
those of the enemy GA British
communique said British planes dur
ing the same period engaged no
italian planes, although they made
extensive patrols0
An Italian plane was reported to
have torpedoed and sunk 5,000-ton
steamer in the Mediterranean, but

rines failed to return"

shortage emanated from the North
rop Aircraft Corp, located at Haw-
thorne, Calf. The Northrop Co.
has since informed representatives
of the National Defense Advisory
Commission that shipments sched-
uled by the Aluminium Co. of Amer
lea will enable their company to
maintain a 10-hour shift with no
interruptions in production sched-
ules.
Had either the National Defense
Advisory Commissions industrial
materials division or the Aluminium
Co. of America been advised by the
Northrop management that 1t feared
a serious shortage, necessary as
surances would have been given at
once to make unnecessary the 20 per
cent reduction in hours of operation
which Northrop put into effect. The
commissions only information con-
corning this development came from
reports published in the press.
1T is unfortunate that public
anxiety over our national defense
preparations should be based upon
reports of shortages which do not
exist Creation of such anxiety,
which has no basis in fact, serves no
patriotic purpose"

Egypt

food, communications and fighting
space-to have a voice in the peace
negotiations which may follow.
Mohamed Mahmoud Pasha. for
mer premier and head of the liberal
party, observed that Egypt had
played "an important role" and thus
'oWes it to herself to gather its
fruits and be represented at the
peace negotiations" In the press
it is stressed that Egypt has faith
fully lived up to her treaty obliga-
tions with Britain.
One phrase of Prime Minister
Churchill's recent speech in Lon
don-his remark that Egypt was
under British protection"-caused
some uneasiness in Egypt, perhaps
because the Arabic language uses
the same word for protection" and
"protectorate."
This was allayed by the Embas-
sy's explanation that the Prime
Minister was merely referring to the
present treaty, under which the
British have the right to have troops
in Egypt and assume the obligation
OF the Country'S defense.

resisting courageously while suffer-
ing bitterly in these recent months.
To Begin at $3.50 PM.
To be delivered from $50 to 10
pm, the Presidents address will be
broadcast over the three major radio
networks and repeated in several
languages by short wave to other
parts of the world. Fifteenth in the
series of "fireside charts" during the
past eight years, the speech was
said by White House spokesman
yesterday to be punctuating a crisis
fully as grave as that facing the
country in March, 1898, when Mr..
Roosevelt went on the air to eX-
plain the closing of the Nations
banks.
Four of these informal radio re-
ports to the people were made in
1888 and with less frequency the
custom has been continued ever
since. Last may 26, Mr.. Roosevelt
went on the air to make his first
accounting of the early efforts to-
ward national preparedness, and to
remind the American people that
I'VE build and defend not for our
generation alone. We defend the
foundations laid by our fathers. We :
build a life for generations yet un-
born. We defend and we build
way of life, not for America alone,
but for all mankind. Ours is high
duty, noble task.
Many Suggestions Received.
AS the President devoted virtually
all of his week end to preparation
of tonight's accounting, the White
House announced yesterday that an
unprecedented quantity of sugges-
tions and Endorsements for bold and
clear declarations in favor of aid i.
to Britain had been received in
advance.
Fiften prominent Washingtonians
Endorsed the views presented the
President Thursday by nearly 200
American professional men and wo-
men, who voiced their support Of .
Mr.. Roosevelt's policy of giving
strong support to Britain.
In addition, statement Of
urgency" was submitted yesterday
over the signatures of 1873 persons, 3,
among them many educators and,
other professional men.
The Statement.
Declaring "the war has found
America" the statement added:
There are three possible uses for
our present defense requirements
to keep war from our shores through
aid to Britain; to defend ourselves
if Britain falls and a triumphant
Germany moves on to further con-
quest: to bargain with victorious
Hitler in case of truce. No matter
which of these uses is the one on
which we finally decide. our current
defense program is not adequate"
France perished and Britain Is
in deadly peril because leaders in
both countries feared to tell their
people the urgency of the hour. Our
Government has that knowledge.
Let the Government speak so that;
we may know, and act so that We
may do"
Although White House Spokesman
Stephen T Early said there had been
little or no expression received there
in opposition to increasing aid
to Britain, several voices of caution
or disapproval have been heard On
Capitol Hill.
One of those critical of indicate I,
intentions of the administration,
Senator Wheeler, Democrat, Of Mon
tana, will speak by radio tomorrow
night in opposition to proposals fer
leasing war materiel to the British .

Paris depended on its lights for
much of its charm. The blackout
is more severe than during the Pc
riod of hoStilities-another evidence
of rigid German control. This is
enforced by French policemen, by
the defense passive" kind of half
military, half civilian patrol and by
the German night bicycle patrol.
All control is done by the French
acting on orders received from the
Germans and the role of the Ger

When the patrolman is not salts

had to have dark curtains made
and cover bright lights with blue

Every one not holding q special

Although the theaters and moving

don't go out often at night. Old
folks are liable to hurt themselves
stumbling over curb. Restaurants
close at IL so that the walters can
make the last subway and the sub
way is jammed. 1t isn't worth
while.
A stranger wouldn't notice it,
but to one who has lived in Paris
for long time, the sadness on the
faces is striking. Boys coming out
Of school don't indulge in horseplay.
Mothers hurry along dragging their
children by the hand instead of
chatting as they CO. French are
family people and with over 2,00O0 900
prisoners away, the women don't go
out unnecessarily, as they hate to
be alone.
Schools Open Before Dawn.
People are tired physically, Juggling
heavy parcels home in the subway
or pushing merchandise across town
IN handdraWn carts as there are
only few horses and motor trucks
available. Women who have had
servants suddenly find themselves
forced to dress three children and
take them to school in the dark as
the clock is now advanced two hours,
one for daylight saving and the
other to compensate for the differ
ence between French and German
time, Consequently at 1880 when
scnool starts 1t is pitch dark and
cold as well, for so far no coal
has been delivered.
After the children are in school.
there is about two hours spent in
lining up in front of stores to get
food for the day, and then the cook
ing to do. Practically no store deliv-
ers any more.
Six hundred thousand men are
out OF work in Paris and looking
for jobs without much hope of find
ing anything, as the lack of trans
portation cripples all activity When
! heard two little shop girls laugh
ing on the street recently, it startled
me so that I jumped. hadn't heard
a laugh for week.

duel. For II innings neither team
could score. Each pitcher had al

Not to be outdone, the Rainiers

Then in the 14th, Tate, who re-

Larry turned in three-hit pitching
performance to give the Seals 5

The Seals gave Powell some top
