Montgomery Massing for Assault on Axis Coastal
 Defenses
35,OOO PRISONERS
 CAPTURED TO DATE
ROmmel Starting Last. Ditch Stand in Defense
 of Bizerte, Tunis
BY VIRGIL PINKLEY


 United Press staff COrrespondent)
 Allied Headquarters, North Africa, April IS. - UP) - British and French troops smashed through strong Axis opposition to seize two Strate- gic hills guarding the outer fringe of the northeast Tu- r1isian coffin corner today, while General Sir Bernard Montgomery massed for q frontal assault on the enemy coastal defense lines.
 Striking quickly in an effort to prevent Nazi Marshal Erwin RoI1i- mel from consolidating his new lines around Tunis and Bizerte, British infantry made fierce attack through mountain country and cap- tured the hill pass Djebel Ang, eight miles northwest of MedJez Fl Bab.
 French forces advancing in the OusSeltia sector pressed northward and took Djebel Sefsoif, about seven miles northeast of Karachoum.
 A total fo 600 more prisoners, an- cluding 200 seized by the British at Mass Djebel Ang and 800 taken by the French at Djebel Sefsouf, was reported in today's 'ofnmunique, running the grand total since the Mareth line offensive to more than 3O,00O. Total for the entire Tu- isian campaign is about 30,000 pris- onerS.
 Most Prisoners Italians
 Of the S0,O0O prisoners officially announced since the Mereth attack, about 7,O0Q were Germans and 23,000 Italians. The fact that the British captured mostly Germans at Mass Djebel Ang, however, indicated that Roinmel had completed the with. drawal of his best forces and was starting his last-ditch stand in de. fense of Bizerte and Tunis with crack German units.
 The systematic British advance in the north, which has squeezed the Germans out of virtually all the mountain area they occupied last month, continued last night with the occupation of Tedious, about six miles north of MedjeZ el Bab.
 Montgomery's Eighth Army was rnasisng along the Enfidaville line, about 50 milesh south of Turlis, for an assault on the enemy's strong positions which extend almost due west from the coast about 36 miles to a range of hills running north- east to southwest. The French hold these hills and are advancing slowly over rough terrain and deep gullies.
 From the French-held ranges. the Axis line runs in zg-zag fashion northward, passing such points as

AMPLE PACIFIC
 HELP PROMISED
ReplacementS for Every Plane Lost Assured By
 War Secretary

Washington, April lS - (uPl - Secretary of War Henry l., Stimson said today that the Southwest Pa cific will receive ample airplanes to replace all losses and to build up air forces there Sufiiciently to counter the enemy,
 we will keep the needs of the Southwest Pacific constantly in mind and there will be a steady and increasing flow of military supplies, particularly aircraft, to that thea- ter" Stimson told Q press confer- ence.
 Regarding TuniSia, he said the Axis armies there Still number be- tween l7S,o00 and 100000 veteran soldiers and there is no evidence that they are planning a major evacuation.
 Regarding the Southwest Pacific where Gen. Douglas MacArthur'S headquarters and Australian mili. tary men are pressuring for more planes, Stimson noted there had been a marked increase in recent weeks in the number of Japanese planes used in the Solomons, New Guinea and Burma, The Japanese have become more aggressive, but the Allied air forces have remained qualitatively superior" he said.
 we will keep our army and Aus tralian flyers supplied with enough planes to replace our losses and to build up our aircraft to counter the increasing strength of the enemy aircraft" Stimson promised.
 He said the needs of the South west Pacific would be met with due regard for the situation on all fronts.
 We have had similar pleas from all parts of the world" he said. "It is common to all vigorous and alert commanders to seek more equip- nent. The combined chiefs of stan are responsible for the control of overall requirements. They must study the whole global military situ- ation."

 London, April l5.--(UPl--A new American fighter plane = the crack Thunderholt = may alter the whole picture of aerial warfare in this sheater. experts believed today.
 The Thunderholts which are tech- nlcally designated as P-47's. are able to accompany United States Flying Fortresses and Liherators all the way to targets in Germany and back again.
 They arc the first such escort shlns that have sufficient range to make such long flights in this thea ter and to give the big daylight homhers protection throughout their journey.
 As the longest range and hardest hitting as well as the heaviest fight CT yet built, the republics Thunder bolt is believed by experts here to be the answer to the German FOcke- Wulf lg0 at any altitude up to the stratosphere where the fortresses can 1ay.
