tied today with pulling victory out
of the bag for British forces that
stopped Col. Gen. Erwin Rommers

The British who piloted and
fought in the new machines could
not find words to express their
praise for the desert battleships.
These are the best tanks the war
has known since the very begin
ming" one of the crew members
told me. 'They can take anything
the Jerry can give while the often
sive gunpower is astonishing. They
are vNzards."

Nazis," one Of the tanks gunnerS
related, land this is the best tank
ever"
There has been no previous
American tank even comparable to

The grants were shipped to Libya

UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
New York, June 2.-UP)-Great
Britain started at Cologne and con-
tinued last night new phase Of
the war which could end it.
Blitzkrieg raids on Britain seemed
to prove that the war can not be
won by bombs alone. But the Ger
mans can not take 1t as the Britons
did.
Mass bombings, night after night,
are needed, not by SO or 100 planes
but by 500 or 1000, concentrated on
a single target as at Cologne.
Germans have been anticipating
such raids with sense of impend-
ing doom. The Nazis were working
fast to prepare for them. In such
cities as Berlin, underground corri-
doris are being built to connect cell
lars in whole blocks of houses; Ber-
lin cellars are being made gas proof.
Nevertheless, the only real air
raid shelters in the capital, are those
under government buildings.
Though many guns have been
taken from the German anti-air
defense organization for the Russian
front--to be used for direct fire -
