(An Italian war communique reported that eight persons were killed and twelve injured in the raid on Sousse and that property damage was heavy at both Sousse and Tunis.) At least eleven enemy fighter planes were destroyed yesterday and one bomber was shot down the night before. Axis planes tried to attack an American air field, but lost four of their number from ground fire and one in combat.

These losses compared with three Allied planes lost in the day's operations. The R.A.F. carried out offensive sweeps in the Sedjenane and Pont du Fahs sectors while bombers of the Western Desert Air. Force attacked one strong Axis position on the Mareth Line. Two lorries loaded with enemy troops were destroyed east of Ousseltia.

Full-Time Juvenile Court Judge Named Continued from First Page serve also as case workers, of "creating a more friendly feeling toward probation officers among the juveniles," the judge said. Under the present setup, he explained, a case worker must delve into the juvenile's family history, then present the facts in juvenile court. "This puts the case worker much in the position of a 'prosecutor in a criminal case and if the juvenile is put on probation, he is probated to the person who in his eyes helped convict him," he said.

Judge Beauchamp said he expected to announce his appointment of an assistant to Mrs. Mason to handle probation work "in a few days." Wetherby Has 3 Children.

A number of minor figures have been removed, but the time is MM unable to reach an agreement they must be replaced by someone else to bring all French forces under one leadership. The Fighting French resolution charged hat the unity of the French war effort has been "shattered" despite the fact that "certain French forces existing in North Africa have returned to the war." "The result in North Africa," the resolution said, "is confusion, which represents an obstacle to coherent participation of this territory in the war, unquestionable anxiety and dissatisfaction inside the French nation, and certain qualms in the public opinion of the democracies." Regarding the military problem, the resolution said it was necessary to return to the war those French forces available but still held away from it. Would Unify Representation.

"It is indispensable to reach an agreement and have representatives abroad in the general interests of France adopt a common attitude in diplomatic questions, unifying French representation with foreign Governments and representing France at international or inter-allied conferences." Economically, the resolution said, "it is necessary finally to reach a common settlement of concrete problems of finance, health, supply and transport and study in accord the practical problems affecting the life of the French people when the enemy is chased out of France and the empire."

"Full Surrender" Reiterated.

Eisenhower said that he was proud to command the Eighth Army which joined the Tunisian campaign after sweeping the Axis from Eygpt and Libya. The Allied forces, he said, "will continue to typify the unified purpose of the British, French and Americans and the unified effort of our naval air and ground contingents to force the Axis to unconditional surrender." Land fighting yesterday was confined to patrol activity, but the Allied air forces attacked the ports of Sousse and Tunis, the town of Enfidaville, rail and road center twenty-three miles northwest of Sousse, and an Axis motor barge convoy in the Mediterranean heading for Tunis. American Mitchell medium bombers, accompanied by Lightning fighters, spotted the convoy. The planes sank at least three barges, damaged others and shot down two Italian planes escorting the convoy.

Halifaxes and Wellingtons of the Royal Canadian Air Force took part in the raid. Three Canadian bombers lost were included in the toll of twenty-three. At the same time Bostons of the fighter command, flown by Canadians, carried out offensive patrols over North France. The loss of twenty-three bombers indicated not only the scope of the attack but the strength of the German defenses.

The number was the largest in a R.A.F. raid since September 16, when a big attack on the Ruhr cost thirty-nine. Damage Admitted. The Germans broadcast an admission that "considerable damage" was caused by the British raiders, but reported only twenty-two bombers shot down. U.

S. airmen returning from the raid 011 the Nazi rail installations near Amiens generally felt the attack was fairly easy. Lieut. Col. Charles E.

Marion, 32, of Grosse Pointe, led one group. "All in all, it was an easy trip," he said.

Barker of St.

Paul, co-pilot of the Fortress for a who called the raid: "Simple as hell." First Lieut. Ed Broussard, 24, of Houston, Texas, said: "It was a cinch," and First Lieut. Ercil Eyster, 26, of Miamisburg, Ohio, said: "The raid was a snap. Except for fairly heavy flak as we went over the French coast, nothing bothered us." But First Lieut. Glenn Shu-make, 27, of Franklin, had a slight disagreement with other fliers.

"This is the roughest raid I've ever been on." "How many have you been on?" he was asked. "This was the first one," he replied. Benes Declares Germany On Brink of Collapse London, March 13 Dr. Eduard Benes, president of the provisional Czechoslovak Government, told a London audience today that "we are in the final period of the war," with Germany "on the brink of collapse."

MMMAmmiMWs4 IY I WHITE PETROLEUM JELLY iJ, Continued from First Taee t.iid last night's attack was not the piomber Command's heaviest liinl on Germany. The greatest uciuht of bombs known to have been dropped in one attack, it said, was more than 1,500 tons on Cologne in the first raid on the night of May 30, 1942. Assumption Proved Wrong. Sir Archibald Sinclair, Secretary of State for Air, had asserted that previous raids on Essen constituted "probably the heaviest blow struck at German war indutry" and the Air Ministry news service announcement that last night's attack was "even bigger" led tc the assumption that this raid was the heaviest ever.

However, observers said Sinclair specifically referred to the damage done to "German war in- 2 1 War Plants Damaged In R.A.F. Raid On Milan London, March 13 (U.R) At least twenty-four factories, most of them producing plane and submarine engines or other vital war materials, were blasted in the Royal Air Force's night raid on Milan on February 14, the Air Ministry announced today.

In one area, 300 by 240 feet, a factory was completely wiped out. us try" anr' to the weight of bombs dropped nor the damage to a city that is not entirely industrial, such as Cologne.

The crushing impact of the bombardment was made evident by the flames still crackling through the heart of the Krupp factory at 3 p.m. Saturday, as well as the disclosure that it was heavier than that of exactly a week earlier, when 450 acres of Essen was devastated and fifty-three Krupp shops knocked out. Left Mass of Flames. Dropping more than 1,000 tons of block-busters and incendiaries on Essen, the giant British bombers left the target area "a solid rectangular mass of fires, with smoke rising 1,500 feet," an official statement said. The R.A.F.

lost twenty-three of its four-engine bombers in the raid on Essen where they ran into newly strengthened Nazi defenses and had to break through tne fire of light and heavy ground guns and a cordon of night fighters. Returning pilots reported that at the end of the thunderbolt assault a vast, rectangular mass of flame glowed through an "enormous" cloud of smoke which soared almost three miles high. Explosions Rock City. The airmen agreed that at least two shattering explosions rocked Essen about ten minutes after the first bombs fell. One who was on his bombing run at the time of one of the blasts said that though he was flying at great height, the spouting flames lit up his cockpit.

"When we arrived the whole target was lighted up by fires," the pilot of a Stirling bomber related. "Suddenly a huge explosion below us shot up a great sheet of flame about 1,000 feet. Despite the thick cloud of smoke rising from the target, we could see the glow of the flames when we crossed the Dutch coast on the way home." The Germans had strengthened their defenses greatly since the raid last Friday night, in which 1,500 tons of bombs were dumped on Essen and 1,000 on the Krupp plant alone. "Seemed Determined. "They seemed determined that we shouldn't get through," the way one pilot put it.
