of big four-motored United States
bombers were forced down on
Turkish soil on the way back to
their unidentified base.
Four American planes Of the
Liberator type (which carry four
tons of bombs each and have .
range of 1900 miles) were forced
ldown--one with a German Mes
lserschmidt on its tail-according
to an official announcement. and
three others were reported to
have landed in Turkey owing to-
