spokesman said.
DISGUISE DENIED
Britain stressed that the para
chutists wore recognizable uni
forms and were not. as the Itali-
ans alleged. disguised as Fascists,
While London awaited a flat
declaration from Rome as to the
fate to be melted out to the cap
tured men. it was pointed out
firmly that Italy cannot act in any
way other than to recognize the
prisoners as soldiers entitled under
the laws of war to be treated the
same as troops captured in battle.
Can Italian communique yes

chute troops had landed in the
Calabria-Lucania region of
southern Italy in an attempt to
sabotage communications and
hydroeiectric works. The Rome

fore they had a chance to do
serious damage.
The Italians charged the

We call upon you to struggle for the

We call upon you to demonstrate for
the abolition of Jim-Crowism in all

This is an hour of crisis. It is a
crisis of democracy.
To colored Americans this crisis is
the denial Of jobs in Government de

is widespread Jim-Crowism in the
armed forces of the Nation.
While billions of the taxpayers
