Members of the Breckenridgr
It-it,iry Club at their weekly lunch J
on Tuesday heard Ot Scouting j
Hitler's air arm, aided, perhaps
by naval units, [toured reinforce-
ments into the spreading buttle
of Crete today and Churchill
warned the struggle for the stra-
tegic Mediterranean island is in-
tensifying.
Invading parachute, glider and
air transport troops estimated
between 8,500 and 11,SCO men-
attacked Sudit Bay oil the north
coast of Crete', penetrating the
outskirts of Caneit, near the bay,
before they r.vere "accounted for,"
according to the British.
Late Tuesday night, Churchill
reported, the situation is "ir*
hand," but the Germans appar-
ently ;it " being reinforced and the
lighting continued fiercely.
The German "army from the
1 sky," supported by constant at-
tacks o| Nazi dive Itomhers, are
i si eking to knock out the British
| defense and pave the way tor
' air transports and gliders that
i followed, Many <i r transports
wore reported crashed, at least
some presumably making inten-
tional crash landings because of
lack of air bases.
Churchill repeated charges that
the N'a/i parachutists wore New
Zealand and British battle dress,
but did not mention unofficial
British reports that some enemy
ships had broken through tha
British naval screen and landed
reinforcements by sea.
In Berlin, the German:, merely
said they faced formidable forces
in C fete and occupied "important"
points.
Meanwhile, the British an-
nounced the Italian surrender in
Ethiopia completed with formal
surrender of the Duke of Aosta,
supreme commander, five gener-
als, a number of staff officers
and between 18,000 and 1!>,000
men.
