TUNIS SUPPLY PORT
FEFiRYVILLE BLOTTED OUT BY ALLIES (British Official Wireless.) (Rec. noon.) RUGBY, April 16. Aerial photographs show that the entire dockyard area of Kerryville, which is most important to the Axis for supplies, has been devastated by the Allies' strategic air force, says the North African correspondent. Traffic at this once-busy port is non-existent. Cargo-landing facilities have been severely damaged by Fortresses. Every building in the dockyard area has been rendered useless, and the few buildings left etanding are roofless.' Four of the six oil-storage tanks in the area have been blocked out.
