Graziani strengthened new defences to the West, at Tobruk, Derna and Bengasi.There was no indication how soon British high command might try to collapse the Bardia defence.Observers believed they would try to take the town at as small cost as possible by delaying direct assault until bombardment, now in its seventh day, could crack Fascist resistance.The Royal Air Force reported last night that 175 Italian planes had been destroyed with a loss of fourteen British fighting planes in the fortnight since the Army of the Nile turned the tables on Graziani\u2019s invasion army in Egypt.Reuters News Agency reported that news of Britain\u2019s victories in North Africa was spreading by \u201cnative telegraph\u201d from village to village through Italian-held Ethiopia.Pensions Minister Mackenzie announced last night that his Department has arranged a programme for building up a \u201cblood bank\u201d with sufficient supplies to provide for 20,000 casualties.The Minister said the plan was made possible by improved bloodstoring methods \u201cdeveloped by Canadian scientists.\u201d The research was initiated by the National Research Council\u2019s Associate Committee on Medical Research.Treatment and storage would be Continued on page 2, col.6.Cloister Court, One of Most Beautiful and Ancient Parts of Houses of Parliament, Damaged by Bombs.By HAROLD FAIR, (Canadian Press Staff Whiter) London, Dec.23.\u2014 (if) Cable) \u2014 A heap of twisted girders and masonry almost covers the centre of Cloister Court, one of the most beautiful and most ancient parts of the Houses of Parliament as the 1'esult of a Nazi bomb.Landing on this small court, which is situated approximately in the centre of the buildings, the bomb destroyed the Public Bills Office on the East Side, the Votes Office on the South Side, and the old Members\u2019 Staircase leading to the Inner Lobby.The pile of rubble containing broken bookcases and torn papers looks as if it had been poured down a chute from the nearby stately Centre Tower.This was the only part of the building to receive a direct hit in two recent Nazi raids but the Members\u2019 cloakroom and a secretaries\u2019 office were damaged and the Inner Lobby is regarded as unsafe due to the effects of the blast.Windows had been broken in the House of Lords and historic Westminster Hall in an earlier attack.Henry VHI\u2019s physician, John Chambers, built the cloisters at his own expense, incorporating in them part of the ancient cloisters of Richard IT.The hoary greystone walls of the courtyard were scarred and dented Continued on page 2, col.3, By GUY RHOADES (Canadian Press Staff Writer) Marshal Graziani\u2019s excuses to Mussolini for at least temporary collapse of his African campaign read much as though the affair had been bungled from the beginning, perhaps partly due to the Duce's impatience.According to the Marshal he planned to attack via Matruh from his advance post at Sidi Barrani, which he reached during September.It was necessary, however, to build a road first to bring up supplies from Fort Capuzza and a pipeline to bring up water.Laboriously over the next few weeks the Italians hauled their supplies in readiness for an assault which was to have carried them to the railhead at Matruh from where, apparently they expected to ride to Alexandria, the Nile and Suez.The Marshal says that the attempt was delayed because motorized equipment which should have arrived from Italy failed to do so and, while he was waiting, British forces which were entrenching some distance away, suddenly attacked him in what he called superior numbers.His men, woefully outnumbered, accoi\u2019ding to the Marshal, resisted with such fortitude that they were made prisoners in droves.> The Marshal\u2019s tale differs in its estimate of the opposing forces placed elsewhere at about 250,000 Italians against 100,000 Empire and Allied forces.He does not suggest what delayed the arrival of the expected vehicles, whether it was the inability of Italian industry to sup- jply them or the inability of the Ita-jlinn navy to escort ships carrying I them through the British naval ; blockade.; Graziani\u2019s report concluded with a ! suggestion that the fight was not yet lower but nowhere in it could one ; detect a ring of confidence, i Evidence of nervousness appeared | elsewhere in Italian circles.The I press began to worry about France iand the great French African colloidal army, part of which has declared its loyalty to the Free French (forces of Gen.Charles de Gaulle.What, the Italians would like to know, is the meaning of the aerial shuttling of Vichy officials between their capital and' North Africa?Is it true that Gen.Maxime Weygand, placed in his old North African com-jmand after the fall of France, re-\u2022 fused to return to Vichy?1_ A suspicion seems to bo creeping into the semi-official Italian mind that something is lurking in the shadows of the dark continent ready to spring on the Italian Empire, unless it.is watched very closely.The Italian press notes with visible signs of uneasiness that a combination of the Free French forces with those of Weygand and those of the British Empire would create a good sized steam roller.It seeks to remind France that, as far as she is concerned, the war is over and she should do what she is told and cease this talk of refusing to yield her colonial territory.Italy\u2019s territorial aims against France, left, in suspense pending conclusion of a permanent Franco-Axis peace treaty, were Tunisia, Corsica and Jibuti.British Pita es Continue To Biast German Rail Centres DE LUXE H0TE1.THREE HIED SHELTERS GIVE !
