Wino Will Vichv Do?

What the Vichy government now would do raised the most intense interest.

Tonight Vichy announced ca. it- ulatiorr of Diego suarez, and 1-. lin broadcast g, Vichy report that the British naval units had enter. ed the harbcr at 3:30 p.m. Vichy claimed resistance was continuing elsewhm on the island.

The German-controlled Paris press began calling for reprisals; here was some speculation here that Laval might take the excuse to hand over to the Axis scme form of naval aid-perhaps French cruisers and destroyers to the German fleet.

The conquest, of Diego Suarez. winch in the ierminolcgy of Bri- tish charts stands for the whole of the be and not merely the French naval use of that name was ac- complished by powerful British land and naval forces-Command- os. marines, regular infantry. war- ships, planes-in a great. show _of strength which, Mr. Giurchill said. was deliberately intended to hold bloodshed to a minimum

Sequence of Events

While British warships held frontal positions before the bay. British land f rces in ccnvergint! movements iz.d the village Diego, the chief town of the har- bor area, Antsirena. and the D160

The last is deep in the bay south- west of Anisirana, which was cap- tumed by a main atflack from the south supported by the diversion action of Royal Marines landed in the nm-ih. Aside from the main ground thrusts north and east, a subsidiary land fcrce moved north- east from Ambararata Bay.

immediately the fighting ceased. it was stated here. British mine- aweepers began clearing the nar- row mouth of Diego svarez Bay i=1 preparation for the entry of the entire British naval squadron.‘

This and other measures, sad an informed source, would be part of prompt British action to assure control by the United Nations of the whole island and its 3.000- mtlo coastline and to convert Diego Suarez into a base for allied naval operations in the Indian 06¢!!!-

"Landings, as already made pub- lic, were successfully accomplished. and b ‘ruesda evening our troops were n contac with French forces in and before Diego Suarez and be- fore the promontory of Antsirnna and the rcmontcry of Oranjia.

BSITISH CRUISER

(Continued from page l) a large string of ships carrying “im- tant war supplies" to the bitter- g-rcontested Russian front. Al- t ough it was attacked by repeated waves oi dive-bombers and torpedo- carrying planes which sank three ships. tnc British sailors neverthe- less succeeded in delivering 9Q per cent of their cargo, the Admiralty stated. I Assuming all of the convoy ships were oi approximately the same size, this would indicate that the convoy originally was composed cf about 30 ships. Casualties apparently were rela- tivel small, although it was not spec fically stated.

The attacks on the two convoys began April 30 and lasted tnrough May 3. The homeward-bcund con- voy was struck first. a submarine? torpedo disabling the Edinburgh; steefiinfi) gear on the afternoon of

giro Edinburgh was able to pro- coed under her own power, but ata speed reduced below her normal 30 1-2 knots. Thus slowed, she and the convoy were attacked the following afternoon in stormy weather by three destroyers which made five separate attempts to break through the escort and destroy the convcy. each one being beaten off. It was in this fighting that the one con- voyed ship, which was in ballast, went down. Seven men were killed on two other chins.

agThe attack on the outward-bound convoy was begun on the afornccn of May 1, by six Junkers 88 dive bombers striking suddenly from the stormy sky. One of them was shot down. then the convoy and its es- cort went unscathed.

Torpedo Planes

On the evening of the following day. six torpedo-carrying planes nt- tacked, and three of the ccnvoyed ships were struck by torpedoes and sank. In this assault one of the at- tackers was shot down.

A a1 attack came on the eve- ning of Mav 3. This last thrust was unsuccessful. causing only minor damage to one ship. One unker B8 was shot down.

This Arctic action presumably was the same in which the German high command three days ago claimed a i0.000-ton British cruiser had been sunk. The Germans then claimed that six convoyed ships totalling 37.500 tons also were sunk.

Bovonl mofnbem zpoiro of tho matter and it was generally ex- ggsscd that a central hall was tho

t way of taking care of the sit- nation.

Mr. Brennan stated that a pro- posal had been made to have tho wit tcwn hell extended at the

Mr. Amett said he thought thh would be a. good opportunity to ac- quire a ublic hall which has been _a long elt want in the town. It would be something that would be of lasting service to the citizens. Now with the government guaran- teeing part of the cost of construc- tion, this was an opportune time to secure it and at the same time tc take care of the entertainment of the troops stationed here.

The proposal was favourably re- ceived by the members and a reso- lution passed moved by Mr. Arnett, mat a committee of five be ap- pointed to meet the town council at their meeting this evening to lay the matter before them for their opinion.
