VESSELS OF FRENCH MAY

President Asks Power 10 Take Over All Idle For
 eign Ships in U. 5.

WASHINGTON, April II. The request of President Roosevelt for power to take over foreign ships has aroused Congressional speculation that the Government might com- mander IA French vessels, including the giant luxury liner Normandie, now tied up in New York harbor.
 One Administration leader, asking not to be quoted by name, said it would be sound procedure to take over French vessels. He predicted it would be possible, as perhaps the first step taken, after the proposed authorization is approved
 Yesterday the President aske d Congress for broad statutory auth ority to take over any foreign own ed vessel lying idle in our ports"
 This authority, the President said in his message, would be subject to payment of a just compensation for such vessels taken over.
 Last Tuesday the President, at a conference with the newsmen, said he was going to recommend legisla- tion to permit purchase or charter of 39 Danish ships taken into pro- tective custody by the Coast Guard but the language used indicated this move was not limited to Danish ships.

The British Expeditionary troops are reported to have established contact" with Hitler's blitzkrieg in- vaders in northern Greece as the Nazi Panzer columns knifed clear across lower Yugoslavia to threaten Greece in new direction in the northwest.
 | A. British war broadcast in Lon- dcn said the German forces are ad- yancing on Greece through the Bi- tolj Gap in Yugoslavia at the border. Apparently, in this sector, a decisive battle between the Germans and British is developing.
 The British broadcast said the German troops are attempting to fight their way through the gap un- Ter heavy attack by British Air Forces.
 Fate of Belgrade
 One report says the Serb Army in southern Yugoslavia has been "de- stroyed' by Nazi columns plunging northward toward Belgrade from Nis.
 Another report says the Serb Army is being pursued"
 Unconfirmed reports previously listed Belgrade as captured by the Germans moving out from Rumania but today reports indicate that the bomb smashed Yugoslavian Capital City is still holding out.
 Late this afternoon a Swiss news paper in Geneva printed dispatch from Berlin stating that Belgrade has fallen
 A British communique said Nazi Panzer forces have reached Yen- itza, 35 miles northwest of cap- tured Salonika, but resistance to the German advance is stiffening in southern YugoSlavia.''
 The British communique says the situation in eastern Macedonia, where the Germans claim to have trapped and captured the Greek East Wing of 80,000 soldiers is still obscure.

WASHINGTON - In Interpreting war news from the Balkans the basic thing to watch is the amount of advance scored by the Nazis in the extreme south of Serbia and in Greece. Advances in northern Yugo- slavia mean nothing.
 In fact, the border between north ern Yugoslavia and Hungary was not even fortified, and the Yugo- slav army planned to evacuate that area immediately if its own counter attacks were rolled back. This part of the Croatia and Slow enia-once under the Austro- Hum garian Empire, consists of broad, rolling plains, among the most fer tile in Europe, and similar to the corn belt of Iowa and Kansas.
 In this section, the Yugoslav gen. eral staff did not even build pill boxes; and before the war started. the bulk of the army was evacuated south except for a skeleton force to fight rear-guard action.
 But in Serbia proper, which is in the south, the army worked fever ishly to strengthen Qualifications along the Bulgarian border. The Greeks also were extremely active.
 Chief Allied worry was that the Greeks would be forced to fight on two fronts, and with much smaller army than the Yugoslavs. This is the point where the greatest shock strength of the Nazi army has been thrown-in an effort to cut through
