NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-Through
all the hair-breadth escapes and
hair raising experiences that go with
travelling nearly 1000 miles aboard
British battlewagons at war, Larry
Allen, the Associated Press's most
travelled seagoing correspondent, was
painfully aware that he lacked one
vital accomplishment.
He couldn't swim.
But today, on furlough from re-
porting the British Mediterranean
fleets activities for readers back
home in the U. s. A.. Mr.. Allen took
a solemn pledge with the sole idea
1t may save his life, which he almost
lost when the British cruiser Galatea
was sunk under him by Axis tor
pedoeS.
I'm going to try" he said, ITO
learn to swim"
For the war isn't over by long
shot, he added. and neither is his
part In it.
A'Ae3sAAAAs -
"We1l be In this war for a long
time" Mr.. Allen predicted on his
arrival here yesterday. "At mini
mum three years, at a maximum five
years. I expect to get back into 1t,
and want to-"
He based his forecast on the belief
that while the Italian navy had
failed in the Mediterranean, the
Germans were still forrnidable-and
the British as well.
THE morale of the British fleet
is excellent" he said. They are
the most courageous people I have
ever seen. They never count the DO
tential loss when going into battle,
of the chances they are taking
Neither the Germans nor the Ital-
ians-especially the Italians-can
match them at sea.
THE Italians have an excellent
ship fleet, but they won't come out
to fight. They have five battleships,
4 to 6 cruisers. 80 to 40 destroyers,
10 to 80 submarines, but most of
them hug their ports. The British
shoot straighter and think quicker.
Germans Still Confident.
German morale is still excellent.
The German U-boat prisoners have
seen and talked to recently remain
hearty and confident"
The Galatea sinking was his clos
est call; he struggled and choked in
the oil-scummed water for nearly
an hour, somehow managing to stay
af1oat until rescued by another war
ship.
While recovering in a hospital in
Cairo, he wrote an epic story of his
experiences on and off the Galatea,
and he has written numerous other
exclusive stories detailing such ad-

totaling $4,000 tons since the
beginning of the war with the
United States.
The special announcement added
13 ships totaling $4,000 tons to
the previous total claimed by the
Germans.
The communique, introduced by
the announcer as ceming straight
from the Fuehrer's headquarters
said:

ing attacks on enemy supply ship

ent at the initial hearing yesterday
Mr.. Randolph said the program

torpedo barrage he weathered
aboard the aircraft carrier Illus
trious, the great British victory over
the italian fleet off Cape Matapan
where he had a grandstand seat
aboard the flagship, and various
ofshore cannonading against Axis
forces in Libya.
Mr.. Allen reached New York al
most neck and neck with detailed
dispatch he had written weeks be-
fore, giving exclusively and for the
first time the story of the sinking of
the battleship Barham in the Medi-
terranean last November Is.
The classic story of the Barham's
end was written aboard the flagship
Queen Elizabeth, from which he was
the only war correspondent to wit
ness the attack, and in 1t he told
how the torpedoes were apparently
aimed at his ship but hit and ex-
ploded the Barham when the Queen
Elizabeth lodged away on a zig-zag
course.
Left Story With Censor.
Writing that story was something
but getting it to the outside world
was something else again. He left
his dispatch with the censor for
transmission to New York at the
opportune time when the British
would decide to announce the Bar
hams sinking and the censor sub
sequently would let 1t go.
For reasons Of strategy the British
withheld the Barham announce
ment until last Tuesday. At that
time Mr.. Allen was making his way
to the United States by air, flying
one leg Of his long journey from
Cairo in an Army bomber with
William G. Bullitt, personal repre-
sentative Of President Roosevelt.

Seizure Of Bases
so Keen on Peace We Will
Fight for IT, Says One;
Blockade Not Feared
9S the Associated Press.

- the Associated Press.
DUBLIN, Fire, Jan. 30.-Ofncial
concern is felt here that the arrival
Of United States troops in neigh
boring Ulster may be preliminary
to seizure of Fires naval bases which
the Allies need badly for the battle
Of the Atlantic, an informed source
said today.
I'VE are so keen on peace" said
one Irishman, that we will fight
like hell for 1t.
Although I don't think it will
come to that, any attack by Ger
many would not necessarily mean
that we would call for help from
anyone. Foreign troops would au-
tomatically walk In to fight beside
Fires army"
Neutrality Strongly Expressed.
This neutrality Of Fire is strongly
expressed both by officials and by
the man on Dublin's streets. The
newspapers made only scant men
ton of the United States troops
arriving, and consistent British
press demands that Fire turn over
bases to the Allies have seen little
light In the censored press.
The whole partition question, of
course, is the root of Fires attitude,
and many declare that if Britain
would permit Northern ireland to
join Fires government-something
Ulster emphatically refuses to do
then Britain and a united Ireland
could work out a mutual defense
scheme.
Fires 250,000 troops are not armed
adequately, and the government at
titude is that they should be equip
ped by Britain. One source said
that the De Valera regime would
be willing to pledge not to use such
armament in its aim of uniting
ireland by force.
Ready to Face Blockade.
When the question is raised of
q possible British blockade against
Fire to force the issue of obtaining
naval bases, the Irishman quickly
retorts THAT would be considered
form of warfare against us.
We have faced famine as a weapon
before and we are prepared to
face it again"
Of11cially, Fire feels no obligations
to fight by the side of Britain even
though she admittedly is dependent
on Allied shipping.
Britain made profit from
carrying our trade in peace years"
one source argued, 80 why
shouldn't she continue to do so
now?"
This Irishman saw no incongru-
ity in Dublin's bright lights and
full shops at time OF blackouts
and severe shortages In Britain
on whose ships she depends for her
supplies.

Pointing out that blind persons in
the District are accorded the privi-
lege of operating candy and news
stands In Government buildings, Mr..
Roosevelt said that expansion of
the war Offices has required so many
of these small commercial enter
prises that there is actually short

In summation, he said that this
group has been given an oppor-
tunity to earn its living and to
serve a purpose in the present in

Asked who would determine
whether individual residents are

no reply beyond a smile when q
