The remnants of the Axis armored units which had been holding defense positions at Agedabia, south of Benghazi, atempted to escape during a sandstorm but rear guards were brought to battle at some points by the British. British advances of 20 to 40 miles were reported in the first phase of] the new westward surge, despite; enemy mine fields, and hope was expressed that the drive might now carry on through all of Libya. If] it does, the allies will be in a posi-| tion to strike at Italy from close! range. { Reports that the Axis was pre-| 8 paring against a possible British, & invasion of Italy as a result of the] trend of the war in North Africa) were received in responsible sources in London.

tions and rock-protected positions of Corregidor. But the communique made plain that the lull in the air was not aecombanied by any cessation of ground pressure. “Fighting of varying intensity” was reported along the Luzon land front, presumably consisting of punches by Japanese forces at Gen. MacArthur's short, tight defensive line in an attempt to locate weak spots at which the final assault may be directed. Assistant Secretary of War John J. McCoy reported that the War Department has had no complete report on casualties on either the American or Japanese side. Gen. MacArthur, he indicated, has been too busy fighting to furnish the department with detailed

bulletins on the progress of the battle, However, Mr.. McCoy said that indications were that American casualties have not been “unduly heavy” and that Japan has lost “considerably more” troops than has Gen. MacArthur, Gen. MacArthur himself, McCoy said, is in the field at the side of his troops, directing their operations in person. He naturally declined to indicate whether Gen. MacArthur's headquarters were on the Bataan peninsula or deep within Corregidor, which probably will be the citadel of the final U. S. stand on the islands. The tone of the American communique was in striking contrast to Japanese propaganda claims on the progress of the Philippine campaign. The Tokyo radio took the line that the task of the American forces was “hopeless” and that they were being driven from position after position. Selling Lives Dearly

Gen. MacArthur, however, reported that “the morale and determination of the American and Fhilippine troops are high and that they may be counted on to continue their resistance with skill and courage.” It was apparent that Gen. MacArthur and his men were selling their lives dearly. A War Department report late yesterday dealt entirely with damage inflicted upon defenseless Philippine towns by Japanese planes in concentrated bombing assaults carried out with apparent deliberateness on Sundays and other religious holidays. From British, Dutch, Australian sources came indications of U. S. air and sea reinforcements flowing toward the battle area.
