Shore Based Planes Used.
On both the Allied and Axis sides
shore based aircraft apparently did

The failure of the heavy Italian
squadron to get into contact with
the Tobruk convoy was declared
here to have taught MuSsolini's
navy that like the japanese feet
in the Pacific" it was no match for
shore based planes, which in this
case included the big "Liberators."
Reports from the Near East in

planes were fighting at present
within the framework Of the Raj
while gaining experience, but that
later they would operate as an en-
tirely separate force. sharing as

Sources in London acknowledged
the hazards of supplying such base
as Malta but emphasized the neces-
] sity of Drawing them.

In Naming of Ship

E> re Associated Press.
NEW ORLEANS, June IT.
A Maritime Commission letter
said to name the Liberty ship
launched here yesterday Ben
jamin Coutee."
No one knew who Coutee was,
but that was what they named
it.
Now it has been discovered
there was a typographical error.
1t should have been Benjamin
Contee,' named for a Maryland
warrior and Episcopal minister
of Revolutionary days.
The name, engraved in glar-

Benjamin Contee was born

day by civilian defense officials

be followed by an all-clear,
but neither of these series of
blasts will in any way control
the blackout. Willful violators,
it was warned, will be prose-
