ITALY B0MBARDED
BY BRITISH NAVY
Royal Fleet Units Extend
Allied Domination OF
Mediterranean
ALLIED HEADQUARTERS

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN
NORTH AFRICA, Aug. IL tR -
British warships extended Allied
domination of Italy's coastline from
toe to shin in the pre-dawn hours
of yesterday with oombardmen'
of targets as far north as the bay
of Naples.
The ghostly hotillas moved with
ease up to the heavily guarded nav
al establishments of Castellam
mare at the southern corner of the
bay of Naples and vulnerable rail
road bridges at Cape Vaticano,
$50 miles to the south, dramatically
demonstrating the weakness OF
Italy to amphibious invasion.
The action was hailed here as
'the patterns of things to come. T"
Rarely has Italy's harbor-hug-
ging navy appeared in a poorer
light than when a pair of the Royal
Navy's cruisers and company of
destroyers poured their broadsides
into the Castellammare shipyards,
lighting huge fires in the dock
area which were seen by raiders
seven miles away.
Shore guns, some much heavier
than those on the British Warshlps,
replied without effect, revealing
the shoddy state of Italian coast
al defenses which are responsible
for protecting hundreds of miles OF
coastline.
Shore-based aircraft, too, failed
miserably to protect the vital nav
al construction and repair estab-
lishments from serious damage,
leading to the surmise that Italy's
whole coastal defense setup is on
a par with the garrisons which
were out-smarted and out-fought
in Sicily.
The British warships moved up
to within 130 miles of Rome to at
tack Castellamare on the shore
line drive familiar to American
tourists.

and Naples itself only 20 miles
