ROME. Aug. 5.-The first 10000
Italian industrial workers who will
leave in groups over the next 80 days
are entraining in Northern Italy to-
night for Germany. They are the
first Of 75,oO0 Italian laborers, both
agricultural and industrial, who are
being lent to Fuehrer Hitler In the
most significant social development
since Soviet Dictator Stain built the
Moscow subway with forced labor.
The Rome press carried nothing
Of this today, but ofacials Of the
Confederation Of Industrial Workers
confirmed the fact and revealed that
in the past year some $4,000 indus
trial and $1,000 agricultural workers
already have been sent to Germany.
OF this number. 10000 agricultural
workers have returned, but an
equivalent number will be sent back
to Germany.
This development not only illus
trates the close ties which bind Italy
and Germany. but also the kind of
Germany Hitler envisages for the
future-a land in which the Nazis
are engaged in highly skilled and
specialized enterprises as well As
war, while expecting farm produce,
the exploitation of mines, and the
like from Central Europeans and
Frenchmen.
Germany lacks man power" ex-
planned an ofncial Of the Confed-
Grafton Of Industrial Workers. And,
he added quite frankly, "the Ger
man workers don't like working on
the land. They are moving toward
the cities. They prefer highly spe-
cialized work. That is why they
have called upon us to send them
Immediately some 10000 men for
the construction trade, mines and
less specialized metallurgical and
chemical work."

purely voluntary. No compulsion
is brought to bear even on the un-
employed, 1t is said with considera-
BILE emphasis. The men selected
are from IS to so years of age,
because the younger men are needed
for the war. No man Is allowed
to take his wife or children with
him. The men must remain in
Germany for q minimum of six
months, but they can elect to
stay on another half year, it Is said.
They come from everywhere in Italy
and will 60 everywhere in Germany.
Confederation of1cials were not
very precise about salaries, but ex-
planned that the workers will be
able to send from ZOO to 800 lire
monthly to their families. This rep

labor In Italy and such remittances
are only possible because Hitler and

Fuehrer or the Duce.
One thing alone strained the iron
bands which bind the axis alliance
and showed that individualism will
rear its ugly head even after II years
Of Fascist benefits for regimented
workers. A confederation omcial
admitted that the Italian workers
were alarmed about the prospect Of
having to eat German food. Some
thing is being done on the human
itarian side there. Some italian
cooks are being sent along with the
workers as well as certain italian
indispensables, tomatoes, spaghetti
and olive oil. Whale oil, butter,
black bread and the like will have
to be of the German variety. bu.
even labor battalions accept no sub

. bitter tight would be waged
against passage Of the measure in
both the Senate and House.
Senator Maloney, Democrat, OF
Connecticut said he would intro
duce q substitute measure which
he asserted had the support Of
previously announced opponents.
This measure would provide for
voluntary one-year enlistments In
the Army and Navy and would also
set up registration machinery.
Should the voluntary enlistments
fail to provide 100000 men by ap-
proximately January !, conscription
would become automatic.
Assistant Secretary Of War Patter-
son inveighed against one-year en-
listments as being inadequate and
inefacient in q broadcast yesterday
Senator Wheeler said, however, that
his group Of opponents would ap-
prove the substitute measure If it
were the only way Of stopping con-
scription.
Other congressional committees,
meanwhile, planned to consider
these other aids to the Nations de-
fenses:
A Senate Appropriations Subcom-
mittee will begin hearings on the
$4,963, 900 Army Navy bill, which
will permit the start Of construction
on q two-ocean Navy and the pur-
chase of equipment for 100000
men.
The House Ways and Means Com
mittee is studying the excess profits

Senator Burke, Democrat, of Ne
braska, said he was confident that
with administration support the
conscription bill would receive no
more than 20 opposing votes. OPP
ponents, however, talked Of amend
ing the National Guard bill to pro-

ments as an effective substitute for
