pact will not be felt before the
fiscal year l943.
The revenue for the fiscal year
1912 is expected to be 9 billion
dollars. 1t will exceed the revenue
collected in the fiscal year 1910
the last year before the start Of
the present defense program-by
3 billion dollars. One-half of this
increase will come from the defense
taxes already enacted by the Con-
gress, the other half from the in
crease in national income.
The revenue expected for 1912
will be 16 billions larger than the
total of all non-defense eXpendi-
lures. This 1.6 billions is greater
than the annual expenditure on de-
fense before the present program
started but less than will be nee
essary for maintaining the Army
and Navy at the new level.
Estimates of receipts, in millions
of dollars, for 1912 and 194l are set

: Britain admitted Shlpplng losses OF
almost 100000 tons a month during
the most intensive phase of the
battle of the Atlantic.
A communique by the admiralty
at London gave the British version
of what the Rome high command
had described as a successful ATTACK
by Italian torpedo-carrying planes
which hit six British warships and
three merchantmen in a Mediter-
ranean convoy. in addition to shoot
ing down 13 British planes.
The British communiqueS said
that repeated attacks by the Ital-
ian craft had failed to do any dam
age to the British convoy and
that seven Fascist planes were shot
down, while five others were severe
| ly damaged.
BENGHAZI BOMBARDED
The British reported one of their
own fighters missing and another
shot down, with the crew safe.
The London admiralty also re-
ported that the Royal navy on
Thursday morning attacked the big
Axis base of Benghazi, on the coast
of Libya, scoring hits on shipping
in the harbor and intercepting two
enemy ships, including one am
munition vessel, which were de-
stroyed.
The supply ships presumably were
en- route to reinforce Axis armies
in the North African drive toward
Suez.
Continued heavy Royal air force
attacks. aided Friday night by
both Polish and Dutch pilots, were
acknowledged by the Nazis, who
reported that 129 were dead or
missing in Hamburg and that there
were casualties and destruction in
the twin cities of Mannheim and
Ludwigshaven on the Rhine.
FACTORY SET AFIRE
The British pilots reported they
had set the great Ludwigshaven
chemical factory abiaze, and one
pilot said he counted 81 fires, most
of them destroying factories. in the
district.
The progress of the battle of the
Atlantic, on which United States
foes of Intervention have called for
more definite data, was partly
clarified by the admiralty figures
showing that British shipping and
shipping useful to the British had
suffered loss of 1,098 vessels, to-
falling 4,734,407 tons in the last II
months.
The total lost each month was
above 100000 tons except in May,
1910, and the April total was re-
garded as certain to be increased
by later revisions.
NAZI PLANES DOWNED
German and British planes fought
over the southeast coast of Eng
land, where Nazi fighter was shot
down, and the air ministry saio
that another destructive raid had
