Rome Admits Loss
Of Important City
To British Troops

ROME. March 18 UP) - The
Italian high command admitted
the loss of Berbera, capital of Brit
ish Somaliland, today, saying that
British naval units, after a heavy
Smelling from the sea, had put a
landing party ashore which over
powered the garrison.
It's daily war communique saia
that in violent fighting at Keren
CCheren), 35 miles north of the
krltrean capital of Asmara, Gen
Lorenzino of the Italian army was
Killed while fighting at the head
Of his battalion"
In the Keren sector. the high
command said, Italian troops re
peatedly counter attacked the Brit
ish. lnflicting serious losses. and
repeatedly repulsing heavy British
attacks.
italian losses in the Keren fight
Ing also were notable, the com
munique said.
German airplanes Sunday were
said to have attacked a British ma
val formation in the eastern Medi-
terranena. torpedoing two battle
ships. The communique said that
that Italians holding the oasis of
Jararub, near the Egypt -Libya
border, again repulsed British at
tacks.

Food for France
Plans Complete

WASHINGTON. March 18. UP)
CASTOR Henry -Haye, the French
ambassador, said today after a con-
ference with Acting Secretary of
State Sumner Welles that only the
final consent of Britain remains
to complete a plan for sending ad-
ditional American food to unoccu-
pied France.
From other diplomatic quarters
came authoritative reports that
Great Britain soon would consent
to pass two experimental" grain
cargoes from this country to unoc-
cupied France through its block
ade.
Henry Haye said his government
was lin full agreement" with the
Roosevelt administration on con-
troll and distribution of food to
France, and that the state depart
ment now was awaiting full agree
ment from British blockade author
tiles so no incident will arise"

English Toid'of
Troop Movements

LONDON, March 18 (UP)-The
British public received its first news
today that heavily guarded British
conveys are passing across the
eastern Mediterranean and Aegean
seas between Egypt and Greece.
British correspondents with the
empire forces in the Near East had
been permitted to report in today's
newspaper that a dramatic military
movement was in progress.
For reasons of military secrecy
the correspondents were able only
tc hint in vague terms at what was
obviously a grand scale movement
of troops and war matreials.
The correspondents disclosed that
stores, munitions, supplies and
transport -(troops)-were on the
move and that as they passed just
east of the Greek Island of Crete.
navy planes cooperating with con-
voys were lashing sayagely at the
italian Dodecanese Islands to pre-
vent italian planes from attacking

Atlantic Patrol
Hunts Submarine

WASHINGTON, March 10. (UP)
War ships and planes of the neu-
trality patrol redoubled their watch
along the Atlantic coast today pend
ing verification of reports that one
or more German submarines were,
or soon would be, EN- route here to
blockade American ports and carry
out Adolf Hitier's threat to tor
pedo American aid to Britain.
This government has been in
formed by a foreign source that
Germany plans submarine opera
tions off the coast, particularly off
New York, to haraSs British ship
ping earring war supplies.
Sen. Burton K. Wheeler, D.,
Mont, isolationist opponent of the
British aid program, said he had
information that British Ambassa-
dor Lord Halifax was the source of
the state departments information.
He charged that the report was
propaganda and Halifax was trying
to frighten the American public.

1000 Perish in
GLASGOW Bombing

LONDON, March 10. (UP)-An
official announcement disclosed to-
day that 1000 persons were killed
and 1900 injured in the Great Ger
man air attacks upon the Liver
pool and Glasgow areas last week,
one of the heaviest tolls inflicted
since start of Nazi mass air attacks
last fall.
The toll was inflicted in two
nights of lengthy air attack upon
each region, the great dock and
industrial area of the Merseyside
and the tremendous shipbuilding
center of the Clydeside.
1t compares with a toll of 789
killed in the entire month OF Feb
ruary.
In two nights Of operation the
German air force killed about one
seventh as many people as in an
entire month of heavy raids.
Imperial Valley press., 1941-03-18

another opponent of the British
aid bill, characterized the report
as propaganda and doubted its
authenticity.
Government spokesmen expressed
no opinion. The British embassy
declined comment, as did the Ger
man embassy.
Vice Admiral Robert Witthoeft-
Emden, naval attache at the Ger
man embassy, doubted the accuracy
of the report. He called it in
credible" Other sources close to
the embassy described it as an in
vention."
The information said to have been
conveyed to this government is
that the German navy is sending
one or more long range submarines
capable of operating over an area
of thousands of miles. The report
gave no actual details of the pres
ent location of such craft.
U. S. navy movements are cloak
ed with wartime secrecy. But those
familiar with operations believed
patrols from the Atlantic fleet will
keep an extra watch on the area
until the report is proved or dis
proved. What action the navy
would take if German submarine
were found in United States coastal
water was not known.
U. S. warships and planes con-
stantly patrol the neutrality zone
which, around the New York area,
extends 600 nautical miles seaward.

ItoIy Pours New
Troops Into War


ATHENS, Greece, March 18 UP)
Italy is pouring fresh troops into
the Albanian front, possibly to re-
new the offensive she started 10
days ago and halted last weekend
after her 18th army had been deci-
mated, a Greek spokesman said
today.
He quoted deserteds from the
italian Cagliari division that the
Italians lost 10000 in dead, wounded
and prisoners in last weeks Of
fensive. The prisoners numbered
1000. The wounded included 200
who had frost bitten limbs am
putated in Greek hospitals and who
will be returned to Italy under an
international agreement.
Reporting on weekend activity,
the Greek spokesman said that
Saturday night the Italians at
tempted a moonlight attack and
were repulsed with heavy losses, and
that Sunday the Italians showed
no disposition to fight. while Greek
artillery heavily shelled Italian po-
sitions. British and Greek planes
were reported active all along the
front.
Last nights war ministry COM
munique said there had been pa
troll and artillery action"
The public security ministry said
that earthquake ravaged Larisso
had been bombed Sunday night for
the third time, that there were no
casualties although two houses were
destroyed and 10 damaged.
