quarters in North Africa reporting
that French troops consolidated
their positions between Djedeida, II
miles northwest of Tunis, and Pont
du Fahs.
AS the ground forces threaded
their way through a maze of Ger
man-laid mines, British parachute
troops f1oated down far ahead of
them yesterday and seized a small
airf1eld in the Tunis region without
opposition from the Axis, military
sources in Algeria said.
Blows Expected Soon.
The Allied broWs against Bizerte
and Tunis, were expected to fall at
any hour. The British and Amer
ican forces were reported officially
within II miles of Tunis two days
ago and the Berlin radio broadcast
a dubious dispatch from Tangier
last night saying Bizerte was being
shelled by the Allies.
Railroad communication between
the two Axis-held cities already has
been cut at Djedeida.
A military spokesman in Algeria
said the Germans were using both
light and medium tanks with some
artillery support They appeared to
lack, he said, the heavy concentra-
tions of mobile artillery used so
effectively in earlier Libyan drives
by Marshal Rommel.
French troops under Gen Henri
Giraud, who have joined in the
drive to expel the Axis from Tunisia
were being supplied with American
equipment as quickly as it became
available, it was reported today.

Chicago Grain
By the Associated Press.

8! the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Dec. IA broader de-
mand from outside interests, plus a
letup in liquidation of December
contracts, gave all grain pits a strong
undertone today. Rye paced the ad-
vance with gains extending to more
than cents at times.
Commission house buying was
most noticeable in the rye pit, where
some large orders were executed.
Part of the upturn was attributed to
covering by traders who had pre-
viously sold short. Grainmen said
rye was favored because it is low
priced in relation to other grains.
Offerings in the wheat and corn
pits were light, and at times both
grains were up about a cent on scat
tered buying. Oats were not as firm
as other grains, because of selling
by houses with northwestern con-
nections.
