LONDON, Oct. 6. (UP)-The AL
lied naval assault on German ship
ping near Bodo, Norway, Monday
was regarded today as another fu-
tile effort to lure the Nazi fleet into
battle, and the start of an offensive
against oil movements to the occu-
patton army in Norway.
The London Daily Herald sug-
gested that the offensive was Or
dered because the Germans now
were forced to rely heavily on wa
ter transport for oil shipments to
their forces in northern Norway,
as a result Of the recent Stock
holm ban on overland shipments
through Sweden.
Yesterdays admiralty communi-
que announcing the action said an
8000-ton tanker was among "A
number of large enemy merchant
ships" hit by bombs from the planes
of an American aircraft carrier
attached to the British home fleet.
Three Allied planes and two Nazi
planes were lost during the opera
ton.
The admiralty said the engage
ment took place in Leads-inter-is-
land channels-in the Bodo area.
