GERMAN FORCES 7
 PUSHING AHEAD

Continued from Page D
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-04-18

Herbert Morrison, minister TOT home security, first discussed the extent of the British raid on Berlin the 40th of the war.
 It had been thought for many hours that because of the weather the raid was small one, more a gesture and a challenge than raid.
 Morrison disclosed that the Stir lings had taken part in the raid, and used the new types bombs, and announced Britain's determination to fight 1t through on the Nazis' own lines.
 Morrison made his announcement in a brief speech while inspecting civil defenses in West London.
 Burst in City's Center
 "The bombs were seen to burst in the center of the city," he said. "The new Stirling bomber was in action in this raid. Unlike the Nazis, we make no hysterical noises about reprisals. We have our plans. They will be carried out. Berlin will be bombed according to plan. Let Hitler understand that we have as much right to bomb Berlin as he has to bomb London"
 Portsmouth took 0 d1ubbing from Nazi planes during the night. Ex- tensive damage was done. The Ger man planes bombed the south coast naval base nearly all night.
 Rescue squads were still digging bodies out of the ruins of homes after the German air attack on London the night before, the great est air raid of all time, when the British planes took off from the bases.
 The weather was too bad for the raid to be more than a gesture meaning that the British accepted the Nazi challenge to war of de- struction and was prepared to fight 1t out on the mercileSS lines the Germans themselves had drawn.
 The German raid of Wednesday night was reprisal, according to the German high command, for a Bristish raid on Berlin April g., when such buildings as the State Opera House, the Prussian State Library, the former palace, of Ger man crown princess and the Bellevue palace where distinguished foreign guests are housed, were struck.
 RetOrt to Nazi Blitz
 Last nights British raid was in retort to the Nazi blitz on London and to the German threat that un- less the British stopped bombing such cities as Berlin-"non-military objelctives"-and left 1t to the Nazis to conduct the war in the air alone, even greater raids on London and other British cities would result. It was the 10th on Berlin.
 It was admitted that 1t was not particularly heavy and 1t was said officially that 1t was not aS big as the raid on April 9, which in turn was less severe than that of March g, the heaviest of the war on Ber- lin.
 Not only did bad weather handi- cap the British planes, but pilots reported that 1t was so cloudy over Berlin, 1t was difficult for the bomb diners to sight targets.
 German planes, in their attacks on London, have to fly only about 100 miles from good bases in oc- cupied territory.

 The German air force attacked Portsmouth again last night while, the British were busy over Berlin. London escaped attack, possibly irl- dicating that the Germans em- ployed close to their maximum available force in the big attack of the night before. 9''!

BERLIN BELITTLEs TIT

Berlin, April 18.-CUP)A-Strong British Royal Air Force units att tempted to raid Berlin lust night despite a warning given. by the German air force on the previous night with a tremendous reprisal attack on London" the German high command said today. (The air ministry in London said that the British raid last night was the heaviest made on Berlin since the outbreak of war0
 The high command said that Presidential districts and cultural objects" had been damaged.
 The British planes appeared F hours after high command an- nouncement that revenge would be taken on an increasing scale against British attacks on German "residen- tial quarters"
 A communique said:
 "The Royal Air Force carried out attacks Thursday night with weak forces against northern Germany. At several places explosive and in- ,cendiary bombs were dropped and caused slight damage.
 Several planes advanced to Ber- Lin and succeeded in penetrating the anti i-aircraft gun girdae around the reich capital, Several fires were caused in residential districts of Berlin and again cultural objects were damaged"
 Three planes flying in toward Berlin were shot down by anti-air- craft gun fire and two others cyeSh- cd in flames near Berlin according to available reports"
 Later the official news agency re- ported 8 sixth plane shot down.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-04-18


 An official news agency communi- que said that vigorous fighting con- tinued at several points in northern T'hessaly and that despite bad road conditions the Germans continued to advance over the mountain ranges. t"-
 The high command said of Jugo- slavia: ...-
 "As already announced in special reports the entire Serb army, inso- far as 1t has yet been disarmed. capitulated the evening of April 17. Fighting in Jugoslavia was thus con- cluded April IS at 12 noon. '"
 "The numbers of prisoners and the amounts of booty can nowhere near be estimated.
 Occupation of the remaining parts of Jugoslavia has practically been completed"
 With Jugoslavia crushed after a, campaign of il days, Germany re- geared its Balkan war machine for final concentrated attack on the DAltkSLA-IkSGh AklGs
 Declaring that endorsements would be sent at once to the Greek front, Nazi informants said:
 Will Destroy Them
 we will reduce the enemy in Greece to destruction within a short; time. The concentration of our full weight against the British and the Greeks will be reflected in the pro- gress of our attacks within the next few days"
 Military reports were that the German armies were still driving southward against the Allied line while Stuka ive-bombing and other planes struck at targets of all sorts and special fleets of planes attacked shipping in harbors all along the Greek coast.
 A special high command commun- ique issued at midnight had said:
 "At 9 p. m. on April 17 the entire Jugoslav army-to the extent not, already disarmed-laid down it's arms internationally. The capitula- tion is effective at noon April l8."
 Thus "the war against the Serbs" had ended, and presumably so had the brief-lived Jugoslav state which the treaties of the last war formed from the nucleus of old Serbia.
 The communique was announced with fanfare of music over the radio, and three-minute radio si- fence followed.
 Itallans Advancing
 Rome, April 18 = (U.P.) - The official news agency Stefani report ed today that Italian troops ad- vancing south in Albania now are within sight of Porto Edda, just north of the Albanian Greek border.
 The force advancing on Porto Edda, Stefani said. is the same which occupied Porto Palermo, about 25 miles to the north.
 (The Greeks have admitted that their troops are falling back in AL hania because their position has become untenable due to the Ger man advance in Greece).
 The high command said motorized units of the second army corps took Ragusa in cooperation with flying columns from Albania which had occupied Cetinje and Cattaro--be- tween Ragusa and the noFthern Al- banian border.
