LONDON, Sept. s.-One of the

encounter between an Raj Amer.

Der and a German submarine In
which the aircraft was victorious
was announced officially in
London today.
The weird fight. in which the
U-boat was severely damaged and
forced to surrender, was carried
out while full gale whipped the
sea.
The submarine was captured in
the Atlantic Ocean.
The British announcement said
the bomber, on patrol recently,
sighted the U-boat and dropped
bombs, forcing it to come to the
surface, severely damaged.
Unable to resist further attacks,
the submarine surrendered.
With gale blowing and no
other ships in the vicinity. the
Hudson lowered over the scene
until it was relieved by another
American-built plane, a Catalina
flying boat, which continued the
patrol until warships arrived.
The latter waited until the
weather moderated, whereupon
prize crew boarded the submarine
and towed it to a British harbor.
Authorities in London said il

submarine was the one which

There are some 100000, 600

component segments.
Embraced within the union
are the Ukrainian, the White
Russian, the Uzbek, the Turk
men, the Talk, the KAYAK, the
Kirghiz, the Azerbaijan, the
Georgian, and the Armenian
Socialist Soviet Republics.
The Russian people are di-
vided into 169 racial groups
segregated into 10 general

OF these major classes the
Indo-EurOpeans are divided
into 36 groups, the Caucasian
into 40 groups, the Semites

2,973,716 square miles.
Including he Hawaiian

and all outlying possessions,
it is less than 3,150,00G

So that plainly the area of
the United States and all its
possessions is less than half
the area of Asiatic Russia
