the foreign ofiice.
 The announcement said that Mat suoka would exchange personal felicitations with and meet the leaders of Germany and Italy in connection with the conclusion of the Tripartite pact"
 To aid him in exchanging felici- tations, and in any other activities, MatSuoka will take with him nine foreign office officials, including Tamao Sakamoto, director of the European bureau, and in addition Col. YatSuji Nagai of the war office and Commdr. Shigeru Fujii of the admiralty.
 Matsuoka, leaving here tomorrow night, will join the Siberian Ex- press train at Manchuli, Man chukuo, March IT.
 He will travel to Berlin with Gen. Eugen Ott, the German ambassa- . dor, who left here for Berlin Satur- day.
 Explanation Given
 The foreign office explained that 6 visit by the Japanese foreign min ister to Berlin and Rome had been proposed when Japan jointed the German Italian alliance but that Matsuoka had been unable to go Now, 1t was said, he would be able both to meet Axis leaders and sur vey on the spot the general Euro pean situation.
 Matsuoka was received in audi ence by the emperor today, in an- ticipation of his departure, and was accorded the honor of worshiping at the imperial shrine.
 He told the Japanese press that he had wanted to go to Berlin and Rome ever since the alliance was signed.
 "As Japan's foreign minister I am going on an important mission," he said. But there is no specially hidden mission.
 For the sake of the future of the tripartite alliance I intend to conduct the fullest discussions. I have never met Hitler, Goering, Ribbentrop and other leaders of Nazi Germany and so I wanted to meet them once in order to have heart to heart talks with them.
 T also intend to see important persons in Germany and Italy and preach my long cherished world peace opinion, based on the prin- ciple of 'Hakko Ichiu'." ("Eight Corners Under One Roof" or Uni versal BrotherhooO
 It was announced that Prince Fuminaro Konoye, the premier, would attend to the foreign minis try during Matsuokas absence.

It compared with February'S weekly average of 75,000 tons and c war-long average of 63,342 tors.
 Losses for the week ended March 2 were 20 British, eight allied and one neutral ship, the fourth heaviest of the war.
 British losses were 102,87l tons and allied 4l,070. The neutral ship lost was of 3,l07 tons.
 The admiralty, announcing the losses, said:
 "The enemy Is now making It's supreme effort"
 It was indicated that the admir- alty had flung long waiting re- sources into the fight against sub marines. Long before the war start cd, 1t had been anticipated that Germany would make It's biggest at- tempt to defeat Britain by using mass submarine attacks in hope of starving 1t.
 432,500 Tons Gone
 During the week for which the admiralty announced the new losses German and Italian claims of ship sinkings had totG,ed 432500 tons, of nearly three times the true figure according to British estimates.
 Losses in previous peak weeks had been: Oct. 20 last 205,78l tops, Sept, 22, 176,135 tons and June 9, l48,786 tons.
 However 1t was during the week ended June g that Dunkirk was evacuated. and 63,438 tons of the weeks losses were due to that his- toric evacuation.
 Shipping losses for the week end- ed Feb. g had been 14 ships total- ing 60,86e tcis.
 Total shipping losses since the war started, including the week end ed March 3, now were 3,175 ,631 tons.
 The average weekly losses for February were 75,000 tons, above the war-long weekly average of 63,3G2 tons.
 The admiralty. pointed out that the big jump for the week reported included the ships lost in a mass German submarine attack on con- voy Feb. 26.
 Heavy as the losses were, they were still well below the worst pe- rio dof the last war, in April 1917, when weekly losses avenged 105 ships totaling 213,000 tons.

one of the injured, Bartholomew Herlihy, A, whose spine was frac- tured by the falling debris. Herlihy's condition had been reported better late yesterday, but he suffered a relapse.
 State Fire Marshal Stephen 0. Garrity and his staff came here from Boston to assist Fire Chief Frank F. Dickinson in the investiga- ton of the fire. Night-long they ir- terrogated employees of the theater in an effort to determine cause of the blaze which burned away sup ports of the snow and ice-covered roof on one side, causing the col- lapse.
 ii Recuperating
 Eleven f1remen injured in the tragedy--worst ever to strike Q New England fire department-were re- cuperating at their homes and were expected to be off duty for several days.
 The Brockton fire department was crippled by the tragedy which killed or injured one quarter of the city's l2i firemen. Scores of cities and towns offered men and equipment to Chief Dickinson.
 Several offers were accepted and a number of men waiting on civil service lists for appointments were called upon to man the depleted companies. It was expected that the low man power of the department might prevent firemen from attend- ing funerals of their comrades.
 Meantime, the city council met briefly last night and named three doctors to certify the cause of deaths of the 12 men to expedite the aling of claims for the i2 wi- dows and 25 fatherless children. It was indicated that annuities of $i,- 900 each would be provided widows, with $200 yearly addition for each child under 18.
 Though a mass funeral had been discussed, families of the dead fire- men said they preferred separate rites. Most of the services were planned for tomorrow,
