PREVIOUS RECORD

Judge Gafiney Gives Ac.
cused Storekeeper Sus.
pended Sentence

Alfonso Gallo, 90, Of 80 Coe street,
o storekeeper found guilty OF selling
beer on Sunday, today was given
o suspended sentence by City Court
Judge John L. daffney In view OF
his past record and reputation. Gallo
was arrested Sunday by Lieutenants
Patrick Moylan and Patrick Ho.
bart, and Officer Joseph Sullivan.
Lieutenant Hobart testified he
obtained the beer on the pretext
that he had company at his home
and was without refreshments. Ho
said Calo's wife "hesitated" before
making the sale, but after confer.
ence with Gallo, he obtained four
quarts OF beer, for which he paid
one dollar.
Defense Attorney Charles A. eum-
on thema was denied o motion for o
discharge on the ground that no
sale was registered because Lieuten-
ant MHoyian stepped into the store
and took the dollar out OF Calos
hand.
The attorney then reviewed Ga.
los record, and the Judge suspended
sentence.

But In the channel Islands, 1t was

The German planes were not rec.

their language and customs under

fore Willkie appeared before u IN
which he expressed his gratitude and
pledged q vigorous campaign. The
convention had been given TO un-
derstand that McNary was WILKES

overwhelmingly on the first ballot.
McNary was O reluctant nominee
and II was understood that he
agreed TO accept only after Willkie
talked to him on the telephone,

They said that when he was remind

Garner had made only one CAM

piled: "Well, I'll probably equal II
not exceed that record"
But McNary was sound add

was taken by Republicans as proof
that Willkie, II an amateur politi-

Transfer TO Lydia
His transfer to Lydia was explain"
ed as being for the purpose OF car
rying out an important assignment
for Mussolini. It proved to be the
building up Of the Italian north Az
rican air force and the construction
Of the line Of Qualifications along the
Libyan-E Egyptian frontier.
Al the time Of his appointment TO
Libya there had been reports that
Baibo and Mussolini had differ.
ences. But his friends pointed out
that the appointment was indicative
Of the Importance with which Mus
solini regarded the African posses
sions. BaIbo's post also gave him an
opportunity TO study colonial MILL
tary and civil problems.
For over-zealouSness in FaScisr1,
Balbo once was expelled from the
party. It was In the early days OF
the movement when he was leader
Of q flying squadron. The death
Of the Rev. Father Don Minzoni,
who had been beaten in Ferrara by
an alleged Fascist group, brought q
court trial. A letter written by Bal
DO TO his followers was produced IN
court. II INSTRUCTED them TO use
Systematic clubbing" in case adj
versaries failed 10 accede by persua-
sion.
Rose From Ranks
When he was re-instated, Balbo
rose from the ranks quickly. In
october, 1920, Mussolini called him

Fighting Over .
On May /, he said, he received
word that the fighting In gouthern
Norway was over. The Norwegian
government ordered him 10 surren-
der. When he refused, the govern
ment ordered him TO get out OF the
country"
1--WE had captured some German
prisoners who had been released
from Norwegian prison camps" he
want on. I'VE loaded them on the
Bcrgholm and took them TO the
Shetland Islands. We crossed url-
der cover OF darkness, but the night
was only two hours long and the
air was filled with German planes.
They were bombing everything In
sight, even little fishing boats. How
we escaped that bombing, I don't
know"
After reaching the shetlands,
Hague was taken TO London aboard
o British plane. There he received
orders to take his ship TO Lerwick,
Norway, 10 aid IN the evacuation
OF British troops. He left the Berg
holm at Lerwick and returned TO
london.
Wanted 70 Go Back
"But I wanted TO 90 back and
light for my country" he said. "At
last we got our fighting orders.
From London we went 10 Glasgow,
and on May II boarded the Mon
arch Of Bermuda which had 2,00C
British troops aboard, bound for
Narvik. We left Glasgow May ~
and went TO Clyde. On May 20
orders were received 10 disembark
the troops. I was disgusted.
I'VE went 10 Johnstown, In Scot
land, and spent O few days there
with the army, but we got tired
OF the army life and I finally re-
ceived orders 10 take the Bergholm.
The Berghoim had been brought 10
Bolckie, Scotland.
ION May 81, we again boarded
the Bergholm and set out from
Bouckie for the Farce Islands,
where we filled her up with pro-
visions, fuel and water. (The
little boat, designed for coastal
work, scarcely could carry enough
provisions for an ocean crossing)
On June z we headed for from
soc, Norway. We planned 10 40
back 10 our country and join the
battle.
