R.A.F.S' TRIPLE TASK
(By Router's Air Correspondent) British bombers are now. conducting three "anti- invasion drives" at once.
These are on the German Channel bases, on Libyan bases from which Italy hopes to invade Egypt and on ports and harbours which Italy is using to maintain he army in Greece.
The range of R.A.E. attacks on Italy's bases in. Albania: has slow- ly lengthened from. Sarande and Konispolis: in the southern, corner of Albania to Valona, Durazzo, Tarento and Naples, which has now. heen visited three- times. while the dockyards at Cagliari Have been attacked by naval air- craft for the fourth time in three months..
Next to rainforcements comes the need to improve and pro- tect the airfields in. Greece
which bombers could use in
addition to the Cretan-base:- More time must elapse before the R.A.F. offensive in this re- gion can be at full strength.
Greece has three military air-
ports and half a dozen auxiliary landing grounds, but as far as is known in London few of these are suitable for R.A.F. needs. Reuter.

AXIS SILENT ON DEBACLE IN GREECE
(By Reuter's Diplomatic Correspondent))
NEITHER THE ITALIAN NOR. THE GER- MAN RADIO HAS MADE ANY REFERENCE TO THE DEFEAT OF THE ALPINI DIVISION IN PINDUS MOUNTAINS – INDEED THE ONLY SUGGESTION IN THE TOTALITARIAN PHRASEOLOGY THAT OPERATIONS ARE NOT PROGRESSING AS IT WAS, HOPED IS. A CLAIM THAT "GREEK ATTACKS” IN THE EPIRUS ZONE HAVE BEEN REPULSED.
Admission of enemy attacks is already a big concession to truth by Axis propaganda. The appointment of a new commander-in- chief- General Soddu: for the campaign against Greece is, of course, another hint of the truth.
GANDHI ANNOYS PUNJAB
On the other hand, the German Radio is, somewhat amusing, in its cfforts to gloss over the sigital defeat of the Italian air raid over Britain.
in other raspccts, there is a very noticeable tendency to exag- gerate German successes, which presumably coincides with the visit of M. Molotov and is intend- ed to impress.
