BUT ALLIES MAKING STEADY ' PROGRESS. METHODICAL ADVANCE ON BIZERTA. (By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright) LONDON, November 22. In spite of intense Axis air attacks which are leading to* violent air battles, the Allied forces continue to advance methodically on Bizerta, reports a correspondent of the Associated Press of Great Britain at Allied headquarters. Reports from the fighting front, though scanty and belated, suggest that clashes are becoming more frecorrespondent says unconfirmed reports indicate that the French have beaten back German forces trying to smash southward through the French defences in order to make contact with Tripolitania., The Morocco radio said: It appears that the German command found it useless to continue resistance m south Tunisia. The Axis forces in this sector have therefore been ordered to cut a way through northward.” The position in south Tunisia is generally most confusing, and there is no elucidation of a French report that a German detachment entered Tunisia from Tripolitania, and headed in the direction of Gafsa and Kairwan. . . More French garrisons are swinging over to the Allies and fighting fiercely.
