A Spanish News Agency report from Madrid quotes a New York correspondent as say ing that "North American" troops are fighting with the British In Egypt. This Is taken to mean United States forces. The fate of Egypt and the Suez Canal may well hinge upon the outcome of the battle which is now in progress, it is conceded. There Is constant cannonading between mobile forces and heavy artillery of each side hammering at the tank and armored formations of the other. The Royal Air Force, which appears to have air supremacy over the enemy, is pounding heavily at enemy concentrations. So far General Romell appears to be conserving his air power. In any case his air attacks have been relatively weak. The battle Is proceeding along a" twenty-two mile front "west and south of Mersa Matruh with the heaviest weight of conflict In the centre. The Battle of Matruh started Saturday afternoon. j British forces have been engaged In battle 130 miles from the bor der Inside Egypt. Fighting Is heavy but there Is no clear announcement as to the outcome. Britain's Ninth Army is reported to have left Syria for Egypt According to dispatches received at Ankara the Germans are preparing to send parachute forces from Crete in a back door attack upon the British in Egypt. Rt. Hon. Ernest has expressed confidence in London that the British will be able to drive the Axis out of Egypt. HALIBUT SALES American Electra. 40.000, 15c and 14c, Pacific.
