WITH THE BRITISH EIGHTH

LINE, March 10 (delayed) tINS)
Field Marshal Rommel must
have been mad" to attack the
mighty British Eighth Army east
of the Mareth Line, its COM
mander. Gen. Montgomery de-
clared today.
Describing Rommel's predica-

The Eighth Army at the same
time calmly resumed pouring up
to the front more and more men
and material with which TO smash
the Afrika Korps when Gen. Sir
Bernard l.. Montgomery decides
the day to attack has arrived.
The scene current in the Mede-
nine area recalls that in the
neighborhood behind FL Alamein,
Egypt, early in October when
Montgomery held off his attack
until he felt he had sufficient
power TO deal a mortal blow.
Rommel evidently did not APP
preciate the gun power Mont

mile arc west of M e d e n n e.
Prisoners told British intelligence
officers that Rommel personally
had told them Friday night that
