AMERICAN SHIPMENTS
SUPPLIES FOR FRENCH NORTH AFRICA. LIKELY TO BE RESUMED SHORTLY. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) WASHINGTON, April 7. The State Department announced that shipments of clothing, fuel and other non-military supplies to French North Africa will be resumed soon. A satisfactory assurance, it added, had been received that the supplies would not reach the Axis military forces, or be diverted for Axis civilian use. Two ships carrying materials from North Africa will shortly sail for the United States. The shipments to North Africa were suspended in February, when the United States ascertained that French petrol and trucks had been sent to the Axis forces in Libya.
