count of barbaric atrocities in
flicted in Japan upon many of the

their fists the broken ribs of an
elderly missionary, and how they
tortured another into

Grew told of the hardships suf-
fered by many of his fellow pas

United Press stan Correspondent

WITH THE BRITISH MEDI-
TERRANEAN FLEET, Aug. 20
(Delayed) British warships and
airplanes poured tons of high
explosives into Axis positions near
Ell Daba on the Egyptian coast
for 50 minutes early today.
The feet beat off fierce running
air attacks throughout the day as
lit steamed back 10 its base.
Aided by a full moon, naval
gunners hurled salvo after salvo
of shells at Marshal Erwin ROM
mels stores. tank repair shops,
gasoline dumps and other in
Istallations. starting numerous fires.
simultaneously British planes
rained bombs on the same OBJ
jectives.
The feet crept along the coast
until il was 30 miles behind enemy
lines to carry out the longest
naval raid since the bombardment
Of Tripoli in April, 194l.
ATTACK UNCHALLENGED
The opening salvo at AIS a. m.
took the enemy by surprise.
Neither shore batteries nor air
craft challenged the warshipS
during the bombardment.
The captain of the destroyer on
which this correspondent was an
observer ordered the gunners to
cease firing at 4:57 a. m. but.
since the enemy remained silent,
he ordered them TO resume and
the bombardment continued IL
minutes more.
ut looks like a highly sue
cessful shelling," he said, point
ing 10 the flames and smoke
rising over the target area.
At the height of the lombard
ment a lookout shouted. "E-boat."
A torpedo boat was racing toward
the warships. The crews OF the
pom-pom batteries and heavier
guns took the range and the first
round hit the bobbing little vessel,
blowing IL apart.
ENEMY RECEIVERS
BY dawn, when the warships
were home. the enemy had re-
covered from its surprise and
began sending dive bombers, tor
pedo planes. high and low level
bombers and fighters in pursuit.
A squadron of Stukas, escorted
by Messerschmitt fighters, opened
the attack. 1t was the first of
nine but the gun crews stuck at
their stations and sent up con-
tinuouS fire.
These gunnerS. many of them
Smooth-faced youngsters, were
magnificent in danger.
When 13 Stukas dived stimuli
taneouSly in the biggest single
attack of the day. some of the
men said:
This Is the end"
Some even said good-by 10 the
others, but they never stopped
firing for minute.
ONE PLANE DOWNED
British fighters protecting the
warships definitely shot down one
plane and the naval gunners be-
lieved they got another before the
first attack broke up.
A concentrated air attack upon
our destroyer brought an answer
of 10000 shells from every gun
on the ship. But the enemy con-
tinued 10 attack in waves. Dive
bombers dropped bombs alongside
10 times.

9 Reich Cities !;

OFFICIAL B RITISH
SOURCES estimated today
that the massive Royal Air
Force attacks on Germany
this year have laid waste a
concentrated industrial and
metropolitan area equal to the
whole of Manhattan Island
south of Forty-second street.
In the nine major Nazi cities
which have been targets Of the
most blistering Raj lombard
ments, it was estimated at
least 100000 Germans have
been left homeless-equal to
the combined population OF
Pittsburgh and Denver.
Damage inflicted in these
attacks was known to run to
hundreds of millions of dol
lars.
At least 500 factories work
ing night and day in Ger

mated to have been leveled
permanently or put out OF
operation for several months.
THE COST OF THE AT
TACKS to Hitler in war ma
terials and equipment was
estimated at probably 500 war
planes, supplies for half a
dozen divisions or more and
an unestimated number OF
submarines and naval craft
all lost either through direct
destruction or destruction of
the facilities with which they
would have been built.
Cities which have felt most
heavily the weight Of the Raj
pledge to "scourge the Third
Reich from end to end" are
Luebeck, Rostock, Cologne,
Hamburg, Bremen, Duessel-
dorf, Essen, Saarbruecken and
MainZ.
Study of Raj reports show
that five square miles Of key
areas in these cities alone has
been wiped out.
THE MOST DEVASTATED
CITY in Germany is believed
to be Cologne of which one
fourth to one-third has been
completely ruined, largely in
the terrific attack of May 80
when 1000 tons of bombs
were dropped in 80 minutes.
The area of destruction is
about the size of Chicago's

liable advices.
About $50, 900 Of Cologne's
