The engine problem, probably tho worst of the many facing the Industry, has been made more critical by shipments of engines to England to power British manufactured planes.

Orders for those engines were placed before fresh demands for Army and Navy planes were made last June. In ten more months a fresh flood of engine manufacture will burst upon the Industry from new factories branches established by plants now working at their peak and by automobile companies. In tho same period 150,000 to 200,000 specialized workmen will have been trained for both aircraft and engine manufacture. When aircraft making was expanded lost May the airplane plants were at only 65 per cent of capacity while the engine plants already were at 90 per cent. Since it takes twice as long to Increase fully tooled eng-lne plant floor space as to expand airplane plants, -the engine bottleneck was inevitable, By rnld-sumraer, 1941, on the basis of the industry's own revised figures, about 250,000 workmen will be employed in American aircraft and engine plants.

That compares with 400,000 workmen now reported to be employed in German plants and a like number in England. The ultimate goal in domestic plants is between 500,000 and 600,000. Itusso Infant Husso, aged seven died in the Greenville PitaJ at 4:80 p. m. Tuesday, Deo.

ROME SEES "NEW PHASE" Newspapers In Rome asserted that white Italian troops, with modern mechanized equipment, were now fighting the "second phase" of the battle after native Libyan foot soldiers had been overcome by the British armored columns. The white Italians were described as more clearly a match for the British than the "Libyan vanguard." One Fascist newspaper said the battle would be decided In a triangle between Salum, Fort Capuzso and but the latter captured by the British. An Associated Press correspondent with tho British armies in Libya reported that several more Italian divisions (12,000 to 14,000 men each) wero imperilled by a tightening noose around Bardia as thousands of fresh troops, drawn from Egyptian desert rolled across the Libya frontier. FLIGHT IN ALBANIA Dispatches from Athens sold fires have broken out at Klisuro, leading to the belief that the Italians were burning supplies in readiness to abandon the town. Similar fires were observed before the Fascists retreated from Arglrocastro and Porto Edda.
