 SOFTEN AXIS
British Fleet Is Seeking Italians; French Army
 Aids Allies
By C. R. CUNNINGHAM Limited Press Staff Correspondent

NtAHteu EEess StNH NUrTesp0nueHtD
 Allied Headquarters, North Africa, Nov. 20-tUP)-Allied commando CTS threw a powerful fleet of flying fortresses bombers into action to. day to soften the way for the United States, British and French armies pressing eastward through TuniSia.
 on the coast Q British fleet steamed in search of the Italian navy in the belief that Adolf Hitler might force Benito Mussolini to risk his naval forces in desperate at. tempt to retrieve the Axis position
 The fortresses of the American army air force took the air to leae the way for the army and the American and British parachutistl and French garrisons holding out miles in advance of it,
 There are 50 many fortresses fin North Africa even now, 1t is pos. sible to say, that the Axis air strength has been overwhelmed and more of the great Doelng B-i7s hIt VII tIlG Wuyt
 It is not permitted to disclose whence or when the fortresses ar- rived, but Allied leaders admitted that they believed the Axis would be unable to provide anything to meet them.
 American and British mechanised units were now deep in Tunisia swinging along three routes and de- termined ot catch the Axis forces in c vise.
 They were getting priceless aid from the French army. The French completely fooled the Germans, who it develops now were convinced they would not fight. So complete was tho German surprise that it was asked here whether Viehty Frenehmen as well as Frenehmen here had contributed to 1t. The French did fight and are fighting now. Az the result, the entire Tuni- sian campaign may Do even more successful than had been natici- pated.
 But at this stage of the campign air supremacy is the key to every thing and 1t is certain that the Americans arc on top, Judging from the tremendous amount Of air fna- terial I have seen and heard about
 Wednesday night and yesterday there were bombing raids on Tunis and Bizerte. Royal Air Force bomb, CTS struck at Tunis aifdromes and harbor from Algeria and at Bizerte from Malta.
 The Germans arc making sporadic air raids of their own but at great cost. h one raid on Bone. on the Algreian coast. they lost five bomb- CTS despite c fighter escort and four bombers were damaged. The Allies lost two fighters.
 The Allied command is putting great faith in the softening work of the bombers, especially the flying fortresses. The fortress crews are about the keenest men in the cam paign. One of them, First Lieut. George B. Anderson, Los Angeles, said:
 You can take 1t from me there's going to be hell to pay for Jerry fl he shows up near us.'
