'AssaiIs NCHA Before
Petworih Citizens

Ernest F. Henry, Petworth dele

Association. that the National Capt.
tai Housing Authority did not real
ize that If given enough rope it
might hang itself-publicly"

ing, cited several instances where,
he charged, reports made by John

ished its study of the agency.
In further efforts to better Dis
trict housing conditions the Pet
worth group adopted a resolution
recommending the constru ton
whenever possible of single family
units, provision of garden space for
each family, and other measures
similar to those set up by the Con-
greSs Heights Citizens Association

John H. Connaughton, also a Pet
worth delegate to the Federation. in
stressing the Importance of local
suffrage, urged that District resi-
dents be willing to prove to Con-
gress they can look out for them
selves. This can never be done, he
said until the commission form of
municipal government is exchanged
for the city manager type.
Senes B. Passmore. presiding
asked for citizen cooperation in
stamping out above-ceiling prices
for merchandise.
D. A. Spencer, chairman of the
Civilian Defense Committee for the

BY WILLIAM B. DICKINSON United Press Staff Correspondent

BY WILLIAM B. DICKINSON United Press Staff Correspondent,
 London, February g. - (UP) - American planes battered Axis communica- tions and supply ports in Africa and Sicily today while Radio Vichy reported that the British Eighth Army had started a big scale attack to deprive the Afrika Korps in Southern Tunisia of access to the sea.
 There was no Allied cohfirma- ton of the Vichy report, although neutral dispatches had reported "hectic preparations" for big Allied offensive in Turisia.
 Gen. Sir. Bernard L, Montgom- ery;s British Imperials were said to be sending advance units into German positions close to the French-built Mareth line, deep in- side Tunisia but an allied com munique said there was nothing to report" from the Ttlnisian land fronts.
 Maj. Gen. James H. Doolittle's 12th American Air force and Amer ican planes based in the middle east continued to blast the Axis supply lines from Sicilyto Tunisia.
 ~'- Coordinated Attack
 Martin (B-2e) Marauders and North American (B-25 Mitchells, escorted by Lockheed (P-38) light nings made coordinated attack on the airdrone at Gabes, on the Tunisian east coast close to the point where Marshal Erwin Rommel was expected to make a stand with the remnants of his Afrika Korps.
 An attack to deny Romel "accesS to the sea" presumably would be directed toward the Gabes area. where there is @ 15-mile bottleneck between the Tunisian salt flats and the Mediterranean.
 Boeing (B-17) Flying Fortresses bombed Sousse, 135 miles north of Gabes, firing buildings and scoring direct hits on at least two enemy vessels.
 Eighteen German fighter planes were shot down during the Gabes raid, while the allies lost only five aircraft in yesterdays operations.
