I National 1 I Defense Tax Included STILL BUYS BEE -A MLDIP SUEZ, Egypt, July 31 (AP Britain is holding airtight control of this vital gateway of world commerce, thus tightening the noose about Italy's African colonies and strangling her attempts to transport badly needed war materials and reinforcements to Eritrea, Italian Somali-land and Ethiopia.

The British contraband operations are like a three-edged blade. The Italians are prevented from getting help via the Suez canal, shipments Italy-bound from the Far East are blocked, and far south along the African coastline ships trying to edge their way up to Eritrea and Italian Somaliland are stalked by British warships. Since Italy's entrance into the war none of her ships have passed through the canal. Naval authorities disclosed yesterday that the Italian steamer Verbania, 6000 tons, carrying a cargo valued at $600,000, is held at Port Said. Loaded with food intended for the Italian forces in Ethiopia, it was seized en route from Suez soon after the Italian declaration of war.

The crew of 40 has been interned. British say their control of the canal and waters south of it has been so successful that serious difficulties have arisen in the Italian colonies, where lack of supplies hampers Italian operations and the guerilla warfare of Ethiopian tribesmen is making matters worse with destructive raids on military supply depots.
