Heaviest Air Blows
 Of War Were Struck
(Continued from Page D

The besieged RAF garrison ct Habbaniya continued to hold out and was reported to have been re- inforced by troops from Basra. The British were said to be contemplat- ing setting up Prince About 1llah, busted 1raq regent, as head of c rival Iraqi government at Basra.
 Offers Rejected Offers by Turkey and Egypt to mediate the conflict were rejected by the British although 1t was said that London might accept the Egypian offer If Iraq first agreed to cease fighting. 1raq took Q similar attitude and was said to be willing to allow mediation only If the Brit- ish evacuated the country first.
 British worries were centered chiefly on Syria which was regarded as the most likely point for entry of German endorsements for the 1raqi regime. Reports from Budapest claimed that Germany had negotia- ted an understanding with Syria whereby German pMnes would be allowed to fly over that country en route to Iraq.
 Budapest also heard that the British had bombed Baghdad again, causing some casualties, and that the 1raqi government had ordered general mobilization and called up all reserves. Berlin understood that all oil sources in Iraq were now in Iraqi hands and that the Iraqi are preparing to resume diplomatic re- lations with Germany, suspended ct the outbreak of the war.
 Berlin evidenced continued inter- est and sympathy in the Iraqi cause but gave no indication of what might be provided in the way of tangible assistance.
 Tn North Africa the British re- ported that land operations by Axis forces against Tobruk had come to e temporary halt although dive- bomber attacks continue.
 Rome Admits Attacks
 Rome admitted that the British had taken the initiative in patrol activity around Sollum but claimed the British had been repulsed with heavy losses in counter-a attacks at Tobruk.
 The Italians asserted they have occupied six Greek islands of the Cyclades group, lying between the Greek mainland and the Italian Dodecanese group. The Germans reported new and heavy attacks on British shipping.
 The NaM high command said Ger man troop shave occupied the Greek islands of Lesbos and Chios, of the Turkish coast.

general reaction of Pacific Coast aircraft manufacturers today to President Roosevelt's demand for more bombers was that they already were producing at nearly top ca- pacity,
 West Coast manufacturers pro- duce more than 60 per cent of the country's military planes, and sev- eral have new plants which soon will be in operation.
 Boeings 10000 employees work around the clock in two Seattle plants, and while officials wouldn't reveal their output, 1t was under stood they turn out two, long-range flying fortresses" daily. Boeing has a $203, 100000 backlog and must still complete four clippers for Pan American Airlines and an unspeci- fled number of Douglas bombers for the Royal Air Force on a subcon- tract. There were unconfirmed re- ports of expansion.
 Douglas Aircraft officials said, '"We'll do exactly what the govern ment wants us to. We're working around the clock now and hiring 300 to 800 men a day"
 Definite Increase
 They pointed out that their pro- duction sechedule calls for "a def mite increase month by month" and said that increase had been realized every month. A Long Beach, Cal. plant was expected to be producing medium and dive bombers by July, and officials said a plant to build heavy bombers--B-25's-with Ford manufactured parts, would be In operation in Tulsa, Okla, this year.
 North American said 1t would bo producing bombers at maximum ca- pacity in It's Inglewood, Cal, plant In 60 to 90 days, and plant In Kansas City, Mo-, producing twice as many bombers as the 1nglewood plant, would be In operation by the first of l042. North American bomb- CTS. however, are fast, twin-engined planes, incapable of long-range. heavy demolition work.
 Robert Gross, president of Lock. heed Aircraft Corporation, refused to comment, but his plant Is known to be constantly expanding.

Che war to Germany as the Luft- waffle has carried 1t to the cities Of Great Britain.
 Automobile production, already reduced by 20l5 per cent to make way for munitions, is expected to be curtailed again the United Press was informed that facilities for en- zine manufacture were especially needed and that the automobile in- dustry might be called on further for that purpose.
 It Is understood that MT. Roose- velt's expanded bomber production program will be carried out in part at least in the new $l,500 900, 900 munitions plant project being de- veloped by the War Department, It will provide for at least two new assembly plants for big bombers and four new engine assembly plants and, also. for expansion of exist ing facilities.
 The emergency bomber order was revealed last night in a letter ad- dressed by Mir. Roosevelt to Secre- tary of War Henry L, Stimson, as- serting that defense of the United States and other democracies "re- quires that there be a substantial in- crease In heavy bomber production"
 He submitted to Stimson, Secre- tary of Navy Frank Knox and to William s. Knudsen and Sidney Hill- man of the office for production managemnt a memorandum fixing the production rate to be achieved under the new program.
 T am fully aware" MT. Roosevelt wrote to Stimson, that increasing the number of our heavy bombers will mean a great strain upcn our

do away with all the neutrality frills we have foisted on our statute books and go back to the principles of international law" he said,
 He advocated sending American ships wherever international law would permit, subject only to the war rules of stopping, search and seizure of contraband, and added:
 But If the Axis powers prefer to use the submarine as the assassin to strike down that right, the way to deal with those submarines is the way we dealt with the barbary pirates and the Dillingers-blow them out of the water as fast as we can.
 "It is beyond the realm of innagin. ation to think that we have become so stupid or so cowardly that we shall let @ band of assassins keep us from even furnishing materials to England, who today stands stall wartly in the front line and defends our homes and our shores.
 we've already waited too long If we continue such a pussy-footing policy the foe will not fear Us and our friends will not respect us."
 Japan Press Warns
 Rome, May 6.-(UP)-The Fascist press warned the United States to- day to be wary of Japan's attitude toward American naval patrols and praised the attitude of the Tokyo foreign minister, Yosuke Matsuoka, toward the United States.
 "One of the most salient parts of Matsuoka's recent statements should serve as a lesson to the United States while there is still time," said the newspaper Popolo DiRoma. That is reference by aMtsuoka to the United States patrol ships. When asked whether any clash between the United States patrol ships and the Axis sea and air forces would be sufficient reason for Japanese inter- vention under the tri-party pact, Matsuoka gave the simplest answer imaginable. He said: Naturally
 This manner of speech was clear and does not need further comment not even for the United States people, who apparently fall to un- derstand warnings which they have been receiving recently"
 Japan Signs Treaty
 Tokyo, May 6.-(UP)-Japan and French 1ndo-China today signed trade treaty which. 1t was announced here, provides a most favored nation treatment and bartering by both countries in the principal commodi- ties.
 The announcement significantly omitted any mention of rubber, and it was learned that that vital war material was not included. It said provisions were made flor the export to Japan of rice, maize. coal, min. erals and other products and the export to French Indo-C China of tex tiles and other manufactured arti- cles and miscellaneous products from Japan"
 It was learned that the trade pro- visions are effective for two and a half years, instead of the five years Japan had requeTed, and French negotiators said privately they be- lieved they had held their conces- sions to @ minimum under present circumstances.

 The trade school bill is still before the appropriations committee. Rep Carl Sharpe, House chairman of thi' committee, said that he was dis posed to let the Waterbury and New Haven trade school appropriation hang fire until the capital budget was of the way. There is strong possibility that if this is done both bills will be dumped into the basket as there may be no funds left by that time to take care of either one of them.
 Waterbury and New Haven manu' lecturers are particularly irate al the committees inaction on the tive bills and are making a strong effort to have legislative leaders, Repub. lican and Democratic, Iron out the Hartford situation.
 Legislative Briefs
 The Litchheld county legislators were scheduled to hold @ meeting this afternoon at 2 o'clock to take action on their budget for the next biennium.
