NAZI EXPERTS HELP
ITALY AGAINST THE
BRITISH IN LIBYA

One who said his father lived
in New York said:
"The Australians are good men,
but they were very rough with
u.s."
The fascist prisoners did not
seem surprised when they were
told the British estimated they
had taken nearly 100, coo Italians
since the push westward started
from Sidi Barrani, Egypt.
The British estimated that their
transports already had removed
10000 prisoners for the Tobruk
area, boosting to $4,000 the total
transported to Egyptian ports.
Officers appeared confident here
that thousands more would be cap
tured in the operations against
Derna, 95 miles west of here.
Enough war supplies have been
seized, they said, to almost equip
the entire British army in Libya.
British doctors said they found
enough surgical dressings alone to
last the Australians for a year. 5
