army, in his retreat from Egypt but
has gained reinforcements since
then.
The British and their Fighting
French allies moving up from the
south to outflank Marshal Rommel
have good equipment, much of it
American made. Allied aerial su-
periority in this theater thus far has
been obvious. AS the British moved
westward they also were aided by
British planes based on Malta in
the Mediterranean. These planes
have been doing valuable work in
intercepting both Axis ships and
air transports moving from Sicily
to Libya and Tunisia.
British Have Many U. S. Tanks.
Gen. Montgomery originally broke
Marshal Rommels back at FL Ala
mein in Egypt with a powerful bar
rage of approximately $50 artillery
guns, each placed % yards apart
over 6-mile front. Most of these
were British 25-pounders, but the
British also have some of the new
United States 105-mm. anti-tank
guns mounted on caterpillar half
tracks. They also have hundreds
OF American tanks, including the
new Gen. Shermans.
Although Marshal Rommel has
the advantage of operating close to
his big base at Tripoli. his supply
problems also are prodigious because
of increasing Allied pressure in
Tunisia to his rear.
Tunisian operations are another
story but all part of the same plot
to smash Marshal Rommel as we'll
as Gen. Walther Nehring's troops in
that French territory.
The Allies knowingly outran their
aerial protection in the early stages
of the Algerian Tunisian campaign
in a gamble to beat the Germans
into Tunis and Bizerte. They failed
because of that lack and also be-
cause of the weather. Now the
Germans are estimated by Gen.

Allies Well Equipped.
The Americans and British are
excellently equipped and each side
apparently has several divisions in
Africa. The United States troops

Albert Kovach, son OF Mr.. and Mrs.
John Kovach of Seymour, formerly
of Riverside drive, Naugatuck, said
today.
Kovach, Il, recently returned
from participating in the invasionS
Of Sicily and Italy. Sicily was a
''pushover" compared to Salerno
and Naples, he said.
He was aboard a cruiser when 1t
was damaged. He also told how his
ship dueled with German batteries
and tanks in Salerno.
His ship in one encounter in Iatly
brought down seven Nazi planes and
at the time a German flyer was
taken prisoner. The German told
his captors New York was bombed
recently and was still burning, the
petty officer said. When informed
this was a pipe dream" the prison.
er refused to believe the truth.
Salerna was an inferno for sew
eral days as incessant bombardment
finally clinched a beachhead for the
Allies, he said.
The checked youth joined
the Navy last January 23rd and this
is the first time he has been home
in eight months.
He has a sister, Evelyn, first
lieutenant in the Army nurses

this week." Mr.. Green said. Extra
help has been added to handle the
Christmas mail and the postmaster
expects the rush will continue until
Christmas day. He expressed pleas
ure 1t is starting earlier than usual
since this will make the daily task
less than in previous years and at
the same time will mean fewer let
tiers or packages will fail to arrive
by Christmas.
The post Office stamp window will
be open to 8 o'clock each night be-
tween now and Christmas to facili-

whether Or not the volume of
Christmas mail will be heavier than
last year.
