been diselosed in‘aguy but the. ‘general terms, but it is known tha the main force landed on the waterfront of Dieppe and this leads one to assume that the purpose was to penetrate right into the town. Whether that was or not is not clear; the British’ newspapers have printed Vichy reports to the effect that fighting was raging in the streets but official British com? muniques say little about the degree of penetration achieved.’ What they do say is that some tanks managed to break into the town and were later destroyed when; {it can be assumed, it was found impossible to re-embark them. | The R. A. P. scored what must be regarded as a remarkable victory at less cost to itself than it must have expected. . Ninety-one German planes were definitely downed and another 100 were battered, at a cost of only 98 planes to the R. A.

Nazis’ Fire Unsilenced

It is evident that German resistance was fierce and sustained that it survived heavy. boments from sea and air. The Germans unquestionably managed to - bring up heavy reinforcements within an hour or two: of the attack. In other: words, a considerable amount of German opposition was never overcome and this indicates that the British, with the massed might of the R. A. F. at hand, just didn't have the weapons to do it.

Dive-Bombers, '’Chutists Needed

Proponents of the dive-bomber will inevitably argue that pillboxes and artillery emplacements which remained in action could have been knocked out if dive-bombers hac been available. They were knocked out either by cannon-firing fighters or by bombers. As far as big guns farther to the rear gre concerned, the German invasion of Crete immediately suggests that air-borne troops. could have been used. It now seems more evident thar ever that the united nations ean hope to overrun the German defenses in western Europe only if they are heavily supplied with divebombers, paratroops and troop car-

130 NEW CASUALTIES REVEALED BY NAVY

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21 (U. P). ~The navy today added 130 names
