Informed British sources, say- 1ii8 many of the German troops m the Libyan drive had been flown from S.cily to ‘ITLPOII. welcomed this British success as possibly the Iflilnning of e. forceful blow against the Axis air ferry service.

Mr. Churchill said the Germans were shot down as tne air fleet was bound to Tr oli. adding»-

"I have no yet heard whether they were full or empty. The fleet was not seriously molested and suffered no loss of ships."

The Middle East communique on Libya sazd merely: "Our patrols again have been active."

(The Germans claimed their Af- rican coups had resumed its m- vance eastward from Salum, Egypt; that an attempted British landing at Bardia was repulsed with heavy lcmes; and that the beleaguered British at Tobruk failed in a tank thrust. British sources did not com- ment immediately on these clams.)

In Ethiopia, the British Imperial forces reported the Italians had turned and were giving battle with artillery near Dessie. 175 miles northwest of Addis Ababa. The Bri- tish command listed nearly 600 ad. ditioniil Italian troops captured in the south.

Housing Program

The Dominion! wartime housing program was for the war emer ency only. said Mr. Plilfltli. It cou d be liciuidated after the war. The houses wouid be built at the lowest possible cost c-nsistent with health and warmth. and would be temporary structures.

Wartime Housing Limited would only start a project where there was acute need due to additional em- ployment in War industries. and where private capital was unavail- able or unable in provide the hous- ing needed

Houses would be of standardized design in about four main types, a stuff house for 90 single men. n four-bedroom family house and two types of two-bedroom fam hous- es. There would be no competition with builders of permanent homes. 'l'he structures would be erected un- der contracts allotted on a tender basis and it was hoped the largo general contractors would take an interest as it was desirable to use mass production methods.

The two bedroom houses would probably cost $1.500 to $1.000. » four-bedroom about $1.800 and the staff house about 325.000. lVfnPillf-ltii said these figures were only work- ing estimates and actual costs could only be arrived at by tenders.

Onlv workers employed in war in- dustry woud be given accommoda- tlon in the compenys houses. The rent charged would take into ac- count local rent structures and would be designed m repay the cost down to u reasonable salvage value in l0 years.

Mr. Pigott said the rent milhi- be somcthinil like 1 i/a oer cent. cl the cost per month.

Main defence In England, Roosevelt says

Asserts There Will be No Lessening of War Shipments to Britain.

l

[oi WASHINGTON, April 22.—(AP)—

President Roosevelt declared today that the war could only be won by keeping the main defence of the ex- isting system of democracy going, arid said that defence is England.

He told a press conference that he war would not be won bv one sea fight or by one retreat In Greece or even the whole eastern Mediterranean.

A strong affirmative was his re- ply to a question as to whether he was confident that the defence of “will be kept going."

. And certainly. he asserted. there will be no lessening of shipments of United States war materials

Britain.

Asked whether the question of convoys now had to be considered. the President replied by remarking crypticallv that: he did not live in Delphi-where a legendary Greek oracle was situated.

Mr. Roosevelt dismissed as too gdtterlng an inquiry whether any steps were being undertaken to pro- tect a “bridge of ships" to Britain.

His discussion of the war situation was prompted by a request for any comment he might be able to give on reports sent ba from London by n. H. H. Arno d. Assistant US. Chief 0f Staff in ciarrte of air.

The President sad so manv re- ports were coming in. it was diffi- culltuio say what should be made pu c.

Mr. Roosevelt said there was one thing he thought everyone sho realize. The reading and radio- JIISIGUIIIR public. if it read history. _ought not to no up on a pinnacle of . hope one day over a sea battle 1n the Mediterranean and int/o the depths of despair the next day over an Axis advance in Greece.

It was at that point that he said the war would be won by keepins Bili- iiin going.

The noyid Air iiprce was outnum- bered l0 t0 1 by the Nazis but they fought bravely beating back wave after wave of enemy planes.

The Stukss blasted the exposed allied artillery end machine-gun- ned the rear roads and hammered every coastal inlet from Volos to Piraeus; yet the {bung British pil- ots. flying withou sleep. took a toll of their swarming enemy.

Small formations of R. A. Ii‘. bombers, often without fighter es- corts, flew to the attack again and again, but they could not break the lengthenin Nazi supply lines.

British o ficers conceded that the Imperial army under Gen. sir Hen- ry Maitland Wilson, dispatched ' to Greece in March, was scarcely ede- guatc to attempt an even deten-
