THE EVENING Advance of Germans In Libya Appears 22 Halted by Brifish No Change in Situation North of Agedabig, Cairo Command Says B the Associated Pry CAIRO, Jan. 27.— Britain’s forces in Libya apparently have braked their retreat before the counter-thrust of Gen. Erwin Rommel’s German-Italian army, Near East headquarters report- ing today that there had “been little change in the general sit- uation during the last 24 hours.” “The main battle area is still north and northeast of Msus,” said the announcement. “There is no change in the situation north of Agedabia.” Msus, which was mentioned in yesterday's communique as the scene of sharp fighting, is about 80 miles northeast of Agedabia and approxi- mately the same distance southeast of Bengasi. The British announced FPriday that they had withdrawn from Age- dabia under the pressure of the new Axis counteroffensive. A further Axis advance north and east of Msus would seriously endanger the British position at Bengasi, and might compel the troops there to withdraw along the coast to escape encirclement. ‘The British said their aircraft had been very active over the battlefront yesterday and had inflicted “considerable damage on enemy columns.” 283 Armored Cars Taken In Libya, Germans Claim BERLIN (from German broad- casts), Jan. 27 (P .—Five days of hard fighting in Libya have resulted in the capture of 283 British ar- mored cars, 127 guns and 563 motor trucks by advancing Axis forces, the German high command an- S [nounced today. During the same period, ended} Saturday, 40 British aircraft were shot down or destroyed on the ground, & communique declared. ‘The announcement made no men- | tion of the progress of fighting on | the North African front yesterday. British Forces Continue Retreat, Italians Say ROME (From Italian Broadcasts), Jan. 27 (#).—The Italian high com- mand reported today that British forces were continuing to retreat | before advancing Axis columns in | western Libya but said there had been no heavy fighting yesterday or last night. “Improved weather conditions have enabled our air force to in-| crease its activities,” the daily war | bulletin declared. Kimmel, in San Francisco, ; Says He Has No Plans ‘BY the Associsted Press. SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 27.—Rear Admiral Husband E. Kimmel, re- it moved from command of the United States Fleet on a charge of derelic- tion of duty, was in San Francisco today and replied to all questions about the future, “I have no plans.” He had “no comment” on the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor or the Roberts commission’s report placing responsibility on him and Maj. Gen. Walter C. Short. Most detailed comment of Admiral Kimmel was, “T am not leaving San | Francisco today.” He arrived here | Saturday.

Woman and Daughter Mrs. Allan McBride's Husband Heads Staff Of Gen. MacArthur In the thoughts of Mrs. Allan C. McBride and her 17-year-old daugh- ter, Sue McBride, of 2133 Tunlaw road N.W., the thunder of cannon over the Philippines is no distant sound. For in the thick of the Batan Peninsula struggle is Brig. Gen. Allan C. McBride, husband and father, who is Gen. Douglas Mac- Arthur’s chief of staff. The wifc and daughter of Gen. McBride have had no word from him since December 232, but they have a feeling he is all right. Wife a “Good Soldier.” “I'm as good a soldier as comes in the female line,” said Mrs. McBride. “I went through the last war. I was pretty jittery at first. But I learned that no news is good news. And I know he is with the best man Mr. Roosevelt could have over there— Gen. MacArthur.” Brig. Gen. McBride was born in Frederick, Md., the son of the late A. C. McBride, who was once sheriff of Frederick County. He went to school at St. John's College, Annap- olis, and entered the Army as a second lieutenant following his grad- uation in 1908. An outstanding officer, Gen. Mc- Bride saw action in the first World War and was with the Army of Oc- cupation in Germany. He was an instructor in gunnery at Fort Sill, 1920-22, and an instructor at the Command and General Staff School at Fort Leavenworth for five years. He is a graduate of this school and of the Army War College here. | He served in Washington for many years during his Army career, hav- ing been on duty here from 1925 to 1928 and again from 1935 to 1939, attached to the office of the chief of field artillery. Then he went to San Anwnlo. BRIG. GEN. A. C. McBRIDE. Tex, to command the 12th Field Artillery and last January sailed for the Philippines. He left his family behind then. A Far-Seeing Man. “He’s a pretty far-seeing young man,” explained Mrs. McBride. “He saw this coming and decided we'd better stay in this country.” | Mrs. McBride decided to come to ‘Washington from Texas, because her | husband owns a large (farm near Frederick and her family has hold- ings in Baltimore County. Gen. McBride went to the Philip- | pines as a colonel and was pro- moted to brigadier general at the | direction of Gen. MacArthur. | Sue McBride is a senior at West- | ern High School. There is a son, | Andrew, 20, who s in San Antonio | 'and preparing to enter the Army? | Air Corps at Randolph Field, Tex., | and a married daughter, Avis, whose | | husband is Lt. Clifton Barr, on duty !in Texas. ‘Albert E. Austin, 65, Ex-Representative, Dies in Connecticut Veteran Health Officer Was Stepfather Of Clare Booth Former Representative Albert E. Austin, 65, of Greenwich, Conn, died there yesterday after a long | illness. A Republican, he entered | the National House of Representa- | tives in 1939, serving one term. Dr. Austin, a veteran health offi- cer of Greenwich, was the step- father of Clare Boothe Brokaw Luce, playwright and author and wife of Henry R. Luce, publisher of Life, Time and Fortune magazines. Guarded Selectees’ Health. Recalling his experience as regi- mental surgeon at Camp Custer during the First World War, he of- fered one of the few amendments accepted for the Selective Service Act—one requiring that selectees not be inducted untfl housing and sanitary facilities for them were ready. The present representative, Leroy D. Downs, defeated Dr. Austin in the Democratic sweep of 1940, but even after his defeat Dr. Austin toured Army camps to make certain that his amendment was being car- ried out. Married Three Times. After a first marriage had ended in divorce, Dr. Austin married Mrs. | Clare Boothe, widow of William | Boothe of Chicago, in 1922, thus| becoming the stepfather of Clare | Boothe. Mrs. Austin was killed in| an automobile accident near Miami, Fla, in 1938, and he later married Alice Dorothea Lounsbury of Stam- ford, who survives him, along with President Roosevelt approved leg- |.two sisters, Misses Grace and Fran- islation yesterday giving him broad control over the Nation's wire and cable communications systems dur- ing the emergency. The power, ending six months after the war, is similar to that vested in President Wilson during the first World War. The President may suspend reg- | ulations of the Federal Communi- cations system, close any facility or transmitting station and remove its apparatus or equipment, or order the use of facilities by Government | agencies. Dr. G. F. Philips, Dutch Inventor, Dies at 83 BY the Associaied Press. LONDON, Jan. 27—Dr. Gerard Frederik Philips, 83, Dutch inventor who founded the world-wide radio and electrical concern which bears his name, died yesterday at The Hague, it was announced here by Aneta news agency. In 1907 he introduced the metal- thread electric light bulb and in 1911 the tungsten-thread bulb. The main plant of the Philips or- ganization at Eindhoven, Holland, now is in German hands.
