England lies about 600 miles from
the nearest German held territory
in Norway.
The attacking plane was a Focke-
Wulf.
During the last two weeks Nazi
long-range bombers have attacked
one Icelandic and one British
trawler, bombing and machine gun
ming both. The ships, however, did
not sink and the Army said there
were no casualties.
Norwegian naval flyers patrolling
the waters around the island en-
gagged in two dogfights with the
Focke Wulfs OF the northern coast.
One fight lasted II minutes. After
one engagement. a German plane
disappeared into the clouds with
flames squirting from its engines.

In addition to being safe and
economical to build. Mr.. Lake said
they would not require the compli-
Gated mechanism of a combat sub
marine and any competent crew of
a surface ship could handle this
undersea freighter after a few
weeks of training.
When Mr.. Lake said his SUBJ
marine could carry $4,000 barrels of
oil, Senator johnson, Democrat of
Colorado, suggested it could be used
to- solve the East Coast oil situation.
Any standard ship yard could
switch from Liberty surface ships
to cargo submarines without retool-
ing, Mr.. Lake testified. He said they
could use the same materials and
have some steel left over.
Asked by Senator Johnson what
the relative cost would be, Mr.. Lake
said his cargo submarine would
cost $2,l25,o00. He had no exact
figures on the surface ship, but
thought it was about the same.
Navy Not Interested"
Questioned by Senator Lee, Mr..
Lake said he had been informed re-
Gently this Government has no pres
ent plans for building cargo sub
marines. Mr.. Lake said he sub
mitted his proposal to the Navy on
June 3 and was told they were in
terested only in combat vessels. He
said he was told at the Maritime
Commission 1t could not do any,
thing without Navy Approval.
The inventor said a metal COM
pany manufacturing aluminium had
consulted him about the possibility
OF building an undersea freighter
because ship sinkings were interfer-
ing with its supply Of bauxite from
South America. One Of Mr.. Lakes
advisors told the committee any
ship yard could build the cargo
submarine II 1t could get Govern
ment permission to use the neces-
sary steel
Mr.. Lake said it might take five
or six months for a shipvard to get
organized to start building cargo
submarines, but one yard had told
him 1t could turn out two 4 day

Two Newspapers Assai|ed

Representative Holland, Demo-
crat, of Pennsylvania told the House
today that the publishers of the
Washington Times Herald and the

tory. they will be rewarded"
Our American press has been
doing a noble job In building up the
morale of our civilian popula-
ton and our gallant fighters wher-
ever they may be-" Representative
Holland said. But. unfortunately,
there are a few publishers who take
advantage Of the right OF free
speech and are using their privi-
leges to expound and promote Pas
cism In America by planting in the
minds of the people suspicion and
lack of confidence in their own
Government"
They have ridiculed statements
issued by both British and Ameri-
can governments as merely bluffs
and propagancs. Representative
Holland continued
Reading from editorials published
in the Times-Herald and in the
Washington Post last week, Repre-
sentative Holland said:
The publisher Of the Washing
ton Post wants the democracies to
win as he shows by his editorials
He wants to strengthen the morale
Of all the people in our Allied coun.-
tries. He wants no part OF Fas-
cism. The Washington Post wants
to contribute its bit in winning the
war-while the publishers Of the
Washington Times Herald and the
New York Daily News are doing
their best to bring about a Fascist
victory-hoping. that in that vic.
tory, they will be rewarded"
