COMMENTING ON THE Italian versions of the short clash in the Mediterranean, "The Times" points out that both the British and the Italian com muniques agree that it ended in a chase.

The "Yorkshire Post," menting on the Rome version of the combat, says:—

"Mussolini's Press Chief is ap-¡ |ing Dr. Goebbels by sinking the British Navy with salvoes of long- range communiques. It is a pity; to contrast them with the cold! facts!"-Reuter.
