U-BOAT'S CLAIM
(Received July 30, 2 p.m.) LONDON, July 29. A German communique states that a U-boat sank 18,750 tons of shipping in a strongly protected convoy and that another sank a vessel of 6000 tons off the British coast. "In Sunday's air battles over the Channel," the communique states, "we shot down six enemy planes, losing one of ours. The British last night dropped only a few bombs in northern Germany and western Germany, and no damage was done except that one fell in a residential quarter of Hamburg. • The efficiency of the A.R.P. minimised the damage."
