Tension Rises in Europe
DESPITE MANY Executions

LONDON.-Gen. WladySlaw Sikor-
ski, premier of the Polish govern
ment IN London, announced the for
nation Of a Polish armored motor
corps for "a future offensive on the
continent" as the spirit of rebel
lion appeared to be on the rise in
Nazi-trampled Europe despite exc
cutions and reprisals.
From Norway, Czecho-Slovakia,
Holland, France and Greece came
reports Of punishment for sabotage
and anti-Nazi activities, while via
the Moscow radio the French were
advised to prepare for armed
struggle" because "the real fight is
at hand"
The greatest tension was expert
enced In Holland, where a midnight
deadline had been set for the appre-
hension of saboteurs who last week
wrecked Nazi military train near
Rotterdam. The execution of an I'M
announced number of 800 hostages
was threatened by the Nazis unless
the saboteurs surrendered or their
identities were disclosed to the au-
thorities.
Dutch government officials here
openly expressed fears that a great
er number of victims than originally
faced execution might be killed be-
cause of an attempt to blow up a
Nazi-operated radio station.

Latest German Air
Secrets Are Barred
Every Nazi Plane Shot DotUn
OUer Britain Examined.

LONDON.-Many enemy aviation
secrets have been discovered by the
Raj during the minute examina-
lion that is applied to every Ger
man plane shot down over Britain.
This examination is carried o..
cy the highly skilled laboratory sta~
OF the department of research and
development of the British ministry
of aircraft production.
1t aims at acquiring data of aero
dynamic features, engines, arma-
ments, bomb installation, electrical
oxygen radio equipment and instru-
ments. Every plane device is
studied.
For instance, samples are taken
Of the very high grade steel found
inside the cockpit of enemy planes.
The composition of this component
IS determined by chemical analysis.
Each sample is subjected to hard
ness tests to find its approximate
tensile strength, micrOSCopical eX-
animation is then made of microSec-
tons prepared from these samples.
The Dornier 2l7 E is the latest
type of bomber on the German
secret list to fall into British hands.
It is an all-metal high-wing mono
plane, powered with two B.M.W. 8Ol
double-roW air-cooled radial en-
gines. The technical data obtained
about this engine is of special value,
for it is also fitted to the latest type
of German fighter, the Focke-Wulf
100.
Several devices have been diScov-
cred in the wrecked Dornier during
examination, and from its construc-
ton and equipment it is learned
that it is used as a bomber, tor
pedo-plaIfe and dive-bomber.

Caribbean Bases
Greatly Enforced

We have long maintained naval
bases in the Caribbean area at
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba; San Juan,
Porto Rico; st. Thomas, Virgin
Islands, and In the Panama Canal
Zone.
During the last two years they
have been considerably enlarged,
their protective features enor-
mously strengthened and their
armed forces greatly augmented.
OF the additional bases leased
from Great Britain, Guiana is the
only one on the South American
mainland.
The seven other outposts estab-

mentioned are on the islands of
Bermuda, the Bahamas, Jamaica,
Antigua, st. Lucia and Trinidad.

two-ocean strength and ever-in-
crossing air fleets in both army

be constantly moving away from

At present we find American
soldiers and sailors as far north
as Iceland, as far east as India.
as far south as Dutch Guiana and
across the Pacific as far as Aus

When the Allies take the Of

The development of air bases in
