Increasing Power
OF British Raids
BY JACK FLEISCHER

BERLIN, May 10 CUP) Ger
mans acknowledged the increasing
strength Of British air raids today
, listing l29 dead and missing at
Hamburg and conceding destruc-
ton in the raid last night on Man
nheim.
The high command said a few
civilians were killed or wounded"
in attacks ON Berlin by individual
enemy planes' last night. 1t said
bombs dropped in the center of the
city.
The high command said the Ger
man air force had dealt hard blows
against England, British shipping
and British naval unit south of
Malta where, it said, a British sub
marine had been destroyed.
DAMAGE MINIMIZED
It's communique said British
planes last night dropped explosives
and incendiary bombs not only on
Berlin but " at various places in
southwest Germany, particularly
Mannheim, where destruction was
caused to residential districts" Al
though fires were started in indus
trial works at Mannheim they were
quickly extinguished, it said.
The official news agency D.N.B.
said in Hamburg dispatch that
Mllcwing Britain's terrific raid on
Hamburg Thursday night, 94 dead
had been counted and 35 persons
were missing. 1t added that the
list of victims was likely to in-
crease.
OF the German attacks on Eng
land the high command said the
planes successfully bombed an
armaments works at Sirfields in
the Midlands, objectives in south
England, harbor works on the Scot
tish east coast and in west and
southeast England.
: SHIPS SUNK
German planes sunk in English
waters two merchant ships totaling
5000 tons and damaged three other
vessels, among them large
freighter the loss of which could
:. be assumed.
South Of Portsmouth, the high
command said, German bombs set
fire to a British destroyer.
The high command said German
night fighters and anti-air r t
guns shot down five British planes.
Two British planes were credited
30 German naval artillery fire.
Informed German quarters said
photographs brought back by recon-
naissance planes showed extensive
areas Of Belfast in recent German
attacks. 1t was claimed that seven
per cent of Britain's shipbuildine
capacity was destroyed at Belfast.

Africa He should require more in
stead of fewer submarines for this
purpose but he will not again find
such concentrations of unarmed
shipping as the Greek operations
offered him.
The fuehrer's new commitment
in Iibya thus may be interpreted
as forcing him to pay special at
tention to Mediterranean conditions
which hitherto he has left TO Mus
solini and the Italian navy. This
enlargement of duties for German
submarines and long distance

British, Allied and neutral ship
ping losses for April indicate that
the German offensive in the bat
tie of the Atlantic is not increas-
ing in intesity proportionate to the
natural advantages of smoother
seas and longer periods of day
light. April is the first month after
winters rough waters and long
nights; and yet eliminating the ad
normal sinkings in the Mediterran-
can, the remainder of April's losses
were smaller than any other sin
gle months sinkings, except for
May, last year.
The entire total Of losses,
amounting to 488,12 tons for April
must be interpreted as unusual be-
cause of the operations in Greek
waters. The Greek episode nov Is
closed and estimates of future Ger
man action at sea must allow for
no repetition of such closely con-
fined targets as were offered the
Germans in the Aegean and the
Adriatic.

tinuing a powerful air offensive
against Germany, heavily raided
sthe great inland port OF Mannheim
and bombed industrial detectives in
Berlin last night.
1t was the second straight night
raid for the Nazi capital and the
second this week for Mannheim,
which aside from being Germany's
chief inland port is an important
railroad center.
Authoritative informants said that
the Mannheim raid, the 38th of the
war on that key target, was very
successful"
Heavy damage was done and ex-
tensive fires were left burning both
in Mannheim and in the adjoining
town of Ludwigshaven by strong

100000 tons, the admiralty dis
closed today in issuing revised snip
loss totals which showed that April,
which was believed to show the
worst losses of the war, actually

In only one month IN the last Il
