U.S. LOSSES MADE UP
Rec. 10.15 a.m. LONDON, January 13. The Americans have already replaced the planes and air crews lost in the great air battle over Germany on Tuesday, says the "Evening Standard's" correspondent with the United States forces. The great replacement depots arrange replacements within 24 hours. The United States army official newspaper "Stars and Stripes" announced that the delay in assessing the results was ■ due to fog which unexpectedly settled over the airfields before the raiders returned home. Many bombers had to be diverted to distant airfields, and it is believed that some of those at present listed as missing may have landed safely in more isolated parts of Britain.
