There were no fewer than
nine submarines reported along
our course and the first con-
tact came before the dawn. A
shot rang out, and in the dis
tance we could see two vessels
battling it out Our radio told
us one was an armed Norwegian
tanker, the other a submarine.
SWIFT ACTION
Our captain ordered two
planes and a destroyer to get
into it fast.
Blast those--to hell" he
shouted.
We later learned the planes
had frightened off the sub and
the tanker had escaped with
minor damage.
An hour later we watched
gun flashes wheI. a periscope
was sighted less than 600 yards
from the convoy in which was
one of the worlds largest ships.
Our vessels listed sharply as the

LONDON, April Z5-RoStOck
was battered fiercely overnight
in the RATS second successive
l,000-mile round trip against the
big German Baltic coast war
plant and shipping center where
the British declared today that
more than 400 tons Of explosives
were dropped in he two attacks.
The smashes at Rostock were
said to have surpassed anything
the German air force had dealt
out TO Britain.
The Air Ministry said the Brit
ish filters, striking in clear wea-
,t,er with a good view of Nheix
targets, blasted the Heinkel .-ir-
craft Works with heavy bombs
and left huge fire flaring from
Rostock's Neptune shipyards.
ONE OF SERIES
This was one Of q series Of
night operations which cost q
total of three planes and Raj
squadrons took to the mir again
by daylight to strike at Nazi
bases across the English Chan
mel.
Docks at DunkerQue were
raided anew and air fields In
France and the low countries
were attacked by aircraft Of the
bomber and fighter commands,
the Air Ministry said. - :,
A coastal cnmmand bomber oo
patrol off the Norwegian coast
was said to have bombed m en-
envy supply ship and set it afire.
British planes crossed and re-
crossed Dover Strait in q haze
today and heavy explosions and
gunfire sounded from France
at times apparently from the
areas Of Calais, Boulogne and
Inland.
The new attack upon Rostock
"a marshaling point for Nazi
war supplies drew from the
London Star the comment:
Even at the height of its pow
er the Luftwaffe never launched
raids of such intensity"
BATTER HEINKEL PLANT
Benefited by excellent wea-
Their, the British filters were said
to have hit with particularly
good effect at the Heinkel plant.
The attack sustained a new
round-the-clock cycle of British
air raids on Germany in which
the Raj struck with unprece-
dented power twice within -
hours-first with 4 pre-dawn
assault on the important Maxi
port where, in one hour Thurs
day night, the greatest weight
of bombs" in Raj history was
loosed and later when the lar:-
est British fighter force ever
sent against a single objective

occupied Dutch port of Flushing

The German radio acknowl-
edge the new raid on Rostock,
with damage to houses and some
casualties to civilians, but said
one British plane was downed
and mentioned destruction only
in residential areas.
That the British struck on sue
cessive night against the COM
paratively small city Of Rostock
was regarded in some quarters
as a sign that the Germans are

Observers pointed out the
great weight of bombs probably
left the port even worse batter
ed than Lubbock, twice it, size.
Lubbock was hit just once with
the full force of the new RAP
bomber power on March %. and
British authorities have said 20
per cent of the city was devas-
tated.

vessels of which about $40 have been
delivered, Admiral Vickery said,
adding:
1--WE received SO ships in Septem-
Der, IS in october. We should hit
80 this month, and in December I
think We'll get delivery of well over
100. We would have got another 100
or so ships this year except that we
had to put two of our yards on
work for the Navy"

former home, en- route to Lorain
