1t added that the two battleships
sought shelter in Brest to refuel and
take on ammunition after their last

That is a 24-hour job, the ministry
said. and the presence of the big
warships "after five weeks suggests
either that by coincidence they each
developed some grave defect while

Brest proved a very poor shelter

the Iraq capital.
The Iraq announcer stated that
it was a reply to British leaflet raids

liver an air attack.
The German radio said the
British bombed Baghdad yester-

CAIRO, Egypt. May 5.-An ap-

seek peaceful settlement of its
undeclared war with Great Brit
ain was made today by the Egyp-
tian government, after a long
cabinet meeting.
In announcing the appeal, the
Egyptian government said 1t was
made by one country of the Arabic
speaking world to another because
the Arabs as a whole we're close TO
the democracies.
Informed sources here said the
Turkish government made a similar
appeal to Baghdad.

were carried out by the British from
Habbaniyah airdrome against at
tacking forces last night.
No Nazi Aid Has Arrived.
British quarters said that so far
no German aid other than moral
support and money furnished before
the trouble started had shown up
in Iraq for the forces of Premier
Raschid Ali Al Gailani
The view was expressed that the
desire for strife with the British was
confined to a relatively small part
of the IraQ population. with many
tribesmen still waiting to see which
side is going to come out on top.
Some Shiite leaders in the Basra
region, who usually have been in
opposition to the dominant groups
at Baghdad, are supporting the Brit
ish. it was said.
The British were said to be solidlv
installed at Basra. at the head of
the Persian Gulf where the British
established their base in the World
War for an eventual thrust which
went to Baghdad and beyond. The
vital Mosul oil region was reported
quiet, and the British said they had
no reason to believe that the Iraqi;
had damaged the oil fields.
1t was admitted. however, that
hostile Iraq forces are holding the
road from Palestine in two places
particularly at Rutba where an un-
armed construction party of British
engineers and native laborers wa.
captured.
