Of shipping is required. The bulk
of the shipping available Though
there will be some larger vessels,
no doubt seems likely to be small
Greek merchantmen of 200-5,000
tons. Many small ships load and
unload more slowly than few large
ones except in harbor like New
York where all can be berthed at
once
The question of possible enemy
opposition must also be kept in
mind. The Italian island strong
holds of Rhodes and Leros, long
isolated and frequently bombed, but
as yet unreduced, lie squarely on
the flank of the sea lane Alex
ndria-Salonica.
German naval officers and men
have been seen and even photo
graphed at Italian naval bases in
Italy. Italy has something like 100
submarines, which in italian hands
have accomplished little, but which
with German officers and crews
might be more dangerous.
Convoy Fine Target for Subs.
A troop convoy is target which
the average submarine commander
dreams of but rarely gets chance
to attack. It would be worth great
deal of effort and trouble to the
Germans to be able to make Wig
orous series of submarine attacks

on the Army of the Nile afioat in
transports.
The destroyer strength Of the
Mediterranean feet is not great;
fortunately, in destroyers, torpedo
boats and small craft, the Greek
navy, which has been giving an
excellent account of itself in this
war, can supplement the British
numbers.
Air attack on convoy would also
be possible, especially from Rhodes
and Leros, and should these posi-
tions be found to contain German
dive bombers serious losses might
be caused. While 1t might be going
too far to say that the reduction of
Rhodes and Leros is a necessary
preliminary to any troop movement
in strength up the Aegean, certainly
they are points which will bear care
full watching, and must at least be
neutralized by British air action
from Crete or from carriers.
These are some of the considera-
tions which must be weighed by both
sides in considering an advance to-
ward Salonica and the Greek coast
in Thrace. Starting at the same
moment, If one may conceive such
a thing, the British ought to get
there first. A great deal depends,

have been firing off and on Tor
months at the English coast.
A communique, in reserved IAN
euage. described todays action as
considerable patrol activity" by
both sides and said one German
fighter was shot down off the South
east coast.
The British offensive appeared dl-
rected principally at Boulogne, Dun
keroue and Ostend and and it tol-
lowed a night of heavy bombing al
tacks on the German Naval base
of Wilhelmshaven, the Nazi ship
building center of Emden and the
Nazi-occupied port Of Brest, France,
and industrial plants in the Runr.
Fires Set at Wilhelmshaven.
Big fires were set off at Wilhelms-
haven, the Air Ministry reported,
and the dockyards and shlpbulldlng
works were hit. A succession OF eX-
plOSlOnS white, yellOW, Teu anu
green-was reported from the Will
helmshaven area.
One pilot, making his &9th raid
said he few blind for Is minutes
before finding his target and drop
ping his bombs.
In Swansea, the South Wales port,
civil defense workers stayed on
the job during the morning after
three days without sleep after
undergoing Friday night the third
successive night of Nazi bombing.
The town was hit by explosives
and incendiaries; many fires were
started and there was an unstated
number of casualties.
Two German bombers were re-
ported shot down in the area; one

Only Machinists

SAN FRANCISCO. June 5. (UP)
Working with virtually full crews
except machinists, nine San Fran
cisco bay shipyards plunged today
into production of $500.O00 600 in
defense ships on which work had
been interrupted since May 10. CIO
and AFL machinists remained on
strike.
Plant officials estimated they
could continue without the strikers
two or three months. Eventually,
however, a point would be reached
at which production would have to
halt unless the machinists were
available.
There was no sign of compromise
on part of the strikers, who are
demanding wage scales of Sl.15
an hour and double time for over
time on the basis of five-day 40
hour week. The companies have Of
