Other officials reported that the ships--which include two} frigates, a tank landing ship and} two big fleet auxiliaries--are heading for the Kuwait area. They added several other pre- cautionary British fleet moves are under way but still are se- cret. MASSES FORCES During the Christmas weekend intelligence and diplomatic re- ports from the region indicated to the British government that Iraqi Premier Abdel Karim Kas- sim has been massing troops, possibly as the prelude to an in- vasion to achieve the annexation of Kuwait he threatened last summer. The defence ministry an- nounced Tuesday that 300 troops, most of them transport aircraft crew members, had been put on the alert, and 200 troops were reported standing by to be flown from Nairobi, Kenya, if needed. Britain foresialied an Iraqi in- vasion last July by landing troops in Kuwait at the request of the Kuwaiti ruler after Kas- sim renewed his country's claim to the little neighboring terri- rain, only about an hour's flight from Kuwait. Britain is bound by treaty to project the sheikdom on the northern end of the Persian Guif. Kuwait was a British pro- tectorate until last June. British forces withdrew from Kuwait in September after Arab League countries, despite Iraq's objec- tions, sent 2,000 troops to Ku- wait to protect it.

A spokesman said Defence Minister Harold Watkinson and his chief of staff decided enough has been done to raise the level| of preparedness of the British| Middle East command to meet any emergency in the area. British officials have refused to specify the reasons for the alert. Arab League troops, which repiaced British commandos, jet planes and warships in Ku- wait last September, amount to only a token force.

Mrs. William Heffinar and her two daughters, Molly, 16, and Patricia, 13, were found by Dr. Heffinar, the girls' father, at their home about 3:45 p.m. All three had stopped breathing. Mrs. Heffinar died at 5:15 p.m., despite a tracheotomy by her husband. Dr. Heffinar is the only physician on Smith Island.
