TELEGRAM FROM LONDON DATED OCTOBER 28TH, 1941        
                                                            
 
                                                            
 
 
A homeward bound Gibraltar convoy was attacked for the third 
      time since the night of 23rd. by U-Boats, 1 small ship being 
            torpedoed, making a total of 4 ships lost.      
 
                                                            
 
 
North-bound East coast convoy was twice bombed during daylight 
      27th by enemy aircraft. 1 small Dutch ship and 1 medium sized 
                     British ship were sunk.                
 
                                                            
 
 
5000 to 7000 tons of rubber recently arrived at Casablanca 
      from Indo China en route for Marseilles. If this arrives in France 
      it will make good 1/3 of the present estimated German deficiency 
      for 1942. A further 6000 tons is probably being carried in a 
      French convoy which sailed from Madagascar for France on October 
                              24th.
