ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN
NORTH AFRICA, March l Up
- Axis attacks toward Beja, in
Northern Tunisia, were disclos-
ed today to have progressed
three miles beyond Sidi sir,
which is ID miles north east of
Beja and 40 miles west of Tun-
is, despite great losses inflicted
by allied ground and air forces.
This disclosure came shortly
after an allied headquarters
communique announced tn a I
enemy attacks in the north gen.
orally were on a reduced scale
but that northeast of Beta the
axis threw in tanks and infantry
all day in an effort to pierce
allied positions.
Bad weather restricted oper-
atoms in the south but Flying
Fortresses carried out one of the
heaviest raids of the campaign
on Cagliari, axis supply port
where four ships were reported
hit.
SAVAGE SMASH
The Germans hurled their full
weight into the Beja thrust aft
e being thrown back initially,
it was stated, and allied for
ward units fought to the last
man, taking heavy toll, before
ground was given.
Air support by Raj Spitfires
and Hurricane fighter-bombers
was described as magnificent"
and the pilots reported scores OF
hits on six-wheeled armored
cars, tanks and trucks on crowd
ed roads in the Medjez- Ell Bah,
Bou Arad and Pont Du Fahs
areas.
French resistance at Medjez-
El-Bab, southeast of Beja, and
along the Mediterranean was de-
scribed as particularly stubborn.
The exact position of the al
lied line remained in doubt but
it was apparent from the three
days of steady attack that the
Germans had not been able to
make a definite break in the al
lied battlefront.
Even in the three-mile Beja
thrust, the Germans are in dan
ger of being cut off if the allies
continue to hold their positions
behind and on each side of the
enemy, which it now appears
they are doing.
The main air activity of yes
terday took place when zone OF
the largest Fortress attacks of
the campaign" was launched at
Cagliari, an air force spokesman
said.
