Wilhelm Munthe de Morgenstierne,
Norwegian Ambassador to the United
States, talked with President Roose-
welt today about the possibility Of
getting food supplies to the Nor

He told reporters aid was needed

This gigantic enterprise" he was
quoted as adding, cannot be held
up by the attitude of men who
have sold themselves body and soul

Eleventh-hour Axis efforts to save
at least slice of North Africa were
reflected in reports of the massing
of German and Italian submarines
and warplanes in probable prelude
to huge scale sea and air battles.
Planes Reported Dispatched.
British sources estimated that
900 Axis planes had been rushed to
Sicily, Sardinia, Southern Italy and
Crete. Other sources, predicting i'm
portant naval operations in the
Mediterranean, said the Axis was
known to be operating at least so
submarines there. Allied losses,
however, were described as remark
ably few and all but one of the
Allied convoy and supply ships
which were hit were said to have
landed their troops and equipment
before being damaged.
The British 9th Army closed in
tighter from the East, moving up
30 miles to within 10 miles of Ben

Unless it were rightly admin
