TO SWEEP DESERT CLEAN The avowed aim of the British offensive was to sweep the desert clean of Axis forces and to provide a second front to divert the full Axis smash at Russia. Halfaya. or "Hellfire Pass,‘ is near saium on the coast and the British lines stretched directly southward to Jarabub. 140 miles away. or roughly paralleling the Egyptian-Libyan border. _ The 50-mi1e penetration apparently occurred lust south of Bid! Omar. 50 miles south of Halfava. and was spearheaded toward Tobruk. where a besieged British garrison has held out since April. For weeks now the Royal Navy has hounded ‘ail Axis shipping attempting to cross from Italy to Africa with Axis reinforcements. AXIS FORCES SURPRISED Military observers hero said that although the drive was expected its actual beginning was well concealed and the communique itself 1n- dicatod the Axis forces were caught unaware The death of the thrust came as a sunprise even to the most. optimistic. They said that the siege of Tobriik would be lifted before the week-end if such a pace continues. Coming at this time. the offensive was accepted in most quarters as an indication of British confidence that: the Russians would be able to hold the Germans out oi the Caucasus without British 51d. Informed sources said that Gen. Sir Claude Auchirileck would never risk a full-scale attack across hundreds of mlies of desert unlesl be was certain that there would be no diversion of whatever supplies and reinforcements he might need. AMERICAN-MADE WEAPONS some official circles declared that this newest campaign would be the first in the present war where American-nude weapons probably would be decisive factors For months slilplouds of United States tanks and planes have been pouring into the Middle East through the Gulf of suez_ since than lamerican-made Glenn Martin Maryland bombers have been effectively ‘smashing Italian shipping in the Mediterranean. and daily raiding Axis stores at Belignst, Dcrna, and other Libyan points to the rear. Since August. mo, British aircraft and naval units have reported the sinking of more than 100 Axis ships with the 105s of millions of dollars worth of war supplies and thousands of soldiers and sailors. German and Italian planes also have been swept out of the desert skies. ‘The steady Axis supply sticam dispatched toward Africa was in itself an indication of Rome's and Berlin's fears that a. British of- fensive was imminent. 'I'he volume of American sup- plies reaming Africa and the strength oi the British [oi-cos there have been carefully shielded from the wor .
