The demands, according to a neu-

arms traffic to China.
2. Termination Of trade between

More than 100 planes of the Red

the Dniester.
Former Red Land
Bessarabia for many years was
Russian territory, but after the
World war when Russia became
communistic, territory voted
through representatives to join Ru-
mania.
Soviet Russia never has recognized
the validity of the transfer OF SOW
ereignty.
Reports have been arriving here
for some time of large concentrations
of Red army troops, tanks and air
planes along the Russian-Rumanian
frontier.
These advices followed others ear
lier in the day from Zagreb, Yugo-
slavia, that italian troops had ar
rived at Scutari, near the Yugoslav.
Albanian frontier the past three days
and that Scutari had been declared a
military zone.
Foreign observers here ~speculated
whether there was any connection
between the Russian and Italian
moves. At any rate, this activity
sharply awakened new concern over
nossible moves by the two powers

Armistice, Terms OF Which

Mussolini Not Present
When Terms Signed By
Badoglio, Huntziger

ROME, June 24.-LR-Italy trium-
phantly ended her war with beaten
France today-just two weeks after
Benito Mussolini plunged into the
European conflict on the side of his
powerful axis partner, Adolf Hitler.
The armistice, terms of which
were not made public at once, was
signed at 7:15 p. m. (12:15 p. m.
EST.), fifteen minutes under a full
day after they were presented to the
four French delegates who on Satur-
day agreed to Hitler's terms in Com
piegne forest, France.
Germany Informed
Count Galeazzo Ciano, Italian for.
eign minister and Mussolini's son-in-
law, informed the German govern
ment of the signing 20 minutes later.
AS a consequences ostilitfes were to
cease at 1885 a. n, Tuesday (6:35
p. m. EST. Monday, in accordance
with the provisinos Of the German
French terms that firing cease six
hours after their notification of the
conclusion of the Italo-French armis-
tice.
Mussolini, who only fourteen days
ago stood on a balcony of his Palazzo
Venezia to tell his nation that I'VE
have decided to take the risks and
sacrifices of war;" was not present
when the armistice was signed in
the 18th century villa Inchesa, twelve
miles from Rome.
The historic villa chosen for the
momentous conference is in the little
village of Olgiata.
Presumably II Duce had not even
seen the four French delegates at
any time since they arrived by Ger
man plane from Munich yesterday
afternoon to open the negotiation s.
The terms were presented yesterday
in 20 minutes, and discussions lasted
nearly four hours today in a large
salon on the ground floor of the
villa.

ton, and Marshal Pietro Badoglio,
chief Of the italian general staff,
signed the documents.

the bandits had been lost near the

The posse, composed of sheriff S
deputies and state highway patrol
men, had the aid of three blood
hounds from the Fender county pris-
on camp at Burgaw in their search.
Officers reported that they follow
ed the men for about five miles along
the old Federal Point road from the
spot where a taxi in which they were
rading was abandoned, after nearly
overturning on the Masonboro loop
road.
The automobile in which the Of
ficers were travelling became stuck
in the sand and some time was lost.
When the hunt was resumed it was
found that the men had left the
road a half mile farther on. Later
the dogs again picked up the trail
on the road and followed it to the
point where the old Federal Point
road meets the Masonboro loop road.
From there the men were traced to a
garage where a door had been. pried
open and the trunk on an automobile
forced open. However nothing was
found there.
The trail then lead toward Spin
dies filling station on the Carolina
Beach road, down the road toward
Wilmington, off into a field, back into
the road an dthem it faded cut en-
