they have been trained now and are well armed.\u201d W7e stopped beside the road for our first meal and Arab kibitzers cOiThetod as we ate bully beef, bread, tea, eggs and oranges purchased from a roadside Berber who argued about the price we were to pay.There was also Canadian salmon.TreiSifil™ Flying Fortresses Take GERMAN ASKED parf |R /Rtapif Against RetreatingNaziArmy Am Make Him Unpopular strike Deep into Tripolitania in Effort to Keep Retreating w/l() miles Sonlli of Tunis, al the juncture of Ihe fronliers of Tunisia, Vlgeria and Tripolitania A spokesman for Ihe French high command said French troops had! altacked North of Jrbel Bouda bous, Northwest' of the Moslem city of Keirounan, which is lliirl-y-five \u2022mile» inland from the Eastern Tunisia» Port of iSoukkc.Gormans and Italians in the valley thl re were aurrounded, the «(pokes-nnm said, and fighting is continuing.By WILLIAM B.KING Associated Press Bluff Writer Bou Ariidu, Tunisia, Jan.II.\u2014\u2022 (Delayed) (/!\u2019) British infantry and tanks have pushed Nazi forces from positions .straddling the Arterial Gouhellnl road.A day of brisk battle today left Ihe Allies and Nazis facing each other across a narrow, stony valley si x miles Nort h of In re.(This position thus is about fourteen miles South of Med je/, el Bab).In what might have been a flanking move effort to envelop Allied advance po ilions at Medjez el Bab, V» G a.;
