Admit Worship Sunk

LONDON, Jan. 8.-The Admi-
ralty announced today that an
Allied convoy, loaded with i'm
portant military supplies" had
reached North Russian ports
without loss or damage after a
hot naval action previously re-
ported December 81.
The convoy was attacked by "a
greatly superior enemy force thought
to consist of one pocket battleship,
one cruiser and a number of de-
stroyers off North Cape, at the ex-
treme north of Norway" the Ad-
miralty said.
The first announcement of the
contact said the enemy cruiser vas
damaged and forced to withdraw
and an enemy destroyer was severe
ly hit and was last seen in a sink
ing condition"
The Admiralty said a small force
of escorting destroyers drove of
the enemy's strong forces in a two
hour fight.
Then, it said, more powerful Brit
ish forces reached the scene and en-
gagged the enemy until his ships es-
capped in low visibility, fleeing at
high speed to the shelter of Nor
wegian bases.
1t listed British casualties as the
destroyer Achates, 1,350-ton flotilla
leader, sunk, and the Onslow. new
destroyer, damaged. 1t said there
were some casualties.
GA German communique Sat-
urday declared Nazi U-boats and
surface ships sank a destroyer,
damaged several cruisers and tor
pedoed four merchantmen in an
attack upon an Allied convoy De-
cember 81 near Bear Island,
about midway between Spitzber-
gen and the northern tip of Nor
way. The Germans admitted the
loss of destroyerD
The British communique today
added:
I'm spite of almost continual
darkness, extreme cold and naviga-
tional hazards due to ice and low
visibility and interference from the
enemy, supplies continue to reach
Russia by the northern route.
