FIRST USO CLUB
 BUILT YEAR AGO
Today POI Service Cen- ters Housed in Buildings
 Built By Government

"One year ago, November 28th. the first government-built USO club opened its doors to service men in Fayetteville, N. C., and today POI of USO's 1902 service centers are housed in buildings constructed by the government"
 This statement was made by Paul B. Badger, Administrative vice. President of USO, in commenting on USO's growth in the past year.
 "On November 28, 1941, g months after USO was formed" MT. Bad- ger said, "the organization was all ready extending recreational and social programs to men in the armed forces at 473 service centers. pend ing the completion of federal struc- lures. At that time, the total month ly attendance at these centerS was approximaely 100000 persons. in- cluding civilians and repeat visits of service men.
 To-day the attendance at USO's 1902 units is nine to ten million a month, counting volunteers, famil- ies of service men and return visits of the men themselves.
 "One year ago, USO operations were located in 195 cities and towns in 42 states, and in 10 communities in 5 offshore bases. Today the figures have grown to 523 cities and towns in AT states, and 56 communities in l6 offshore and hemisphere bases.
 Within the past year the field staff of professional workers has increased from 720 to 1876.
 "In November, 194I, the Mobile Service Division and the Troops-in- Transit lounges in railroad and bus terminals had not yet been institut- ed. Now 52 motorized units bring USO services to men in coast artil- lery and anti-aircraft batteries, air observation posts and other guard attachments along the Atlantic and Pacific shores. Today travelling men in uniform find comfortable lounges and information service in 87 rail- road and bus stations at the prin- copal transportation centers of the nation. More than 100000 service men and their families make use of these lounges each month.

Balcony Empire'' Authors Covered Back Door" Of Europe For 7 Years

The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-11-28

which makes Balcony Empire" | such an accurate and informative book. It reflects their unique expe- rience as correspondents assigned to cover every phase of Italy's ag- gressiye policy in the Mediterra- mean and North Africa.
 When Mussolini sent his legions into Ethiopia in 1895. Reynolds and Eleanor Packard were with the Italian army. They moved on to Spain with the Duce's Blackshirt soldiers and aviators who aided Franco during the Spanish Civil War. When Mussolini, by organiz- ing spontaneous" demonstration in Rome, laid claim to the French protectorate of Tunisia, the Pack ards went to Tunisia and saw how the Fascists were attempting to undermine French rule through use of fifth column.
 One evening in Rome the Pack ards got tip that Italo- Albanian relations had taken a bad turn. Eleanor caught what proved to be the last plane to Tirana at dawn next day. Two days later the Fascist troops invaded Albania and the Packards covered both sides of the briefs struggle for United Press Eleanor from Tirana and Rey- holds from Rome.
 Duce's Skullduggery
 The outbreak of World War II found the Packards again in Rome, where they stayed until the entry of the United tSates into the war. In their book they trace the course of diplomatic skullduggery Musso. lini followed during Italy,s non- beligerent period and they show the way the Fascists mismanaged their military campaigns. Reynolds was the only American correspon- dent who got to Albania to visit the Italian front during the ItaIo- Greek war. He tells how surprised the Fascists were to have to fight that war and how unprepared they were because they had believed that they could bluff the Greeks.
 The book is full of behind-the. scenes stories of Italian mkilkagy failures in North ard East Africa, of Mussolini's political juggling in the Balkans. It explains why Filter has not allowed the Duce to realize his claims to French territory, ef Itaiy's place in the JtalO- Russian war and what the Fascists had hoped to get out of 1t.
 How Is morale on the home front In Italy? The Packards will tell you It Is very bad and that resentment against the Faseists Is rapidly growing among tife tightly ra. toned Italians. What are the chances of an anti-Fasclst reyolu- tion? Balcony Empire" contends that Italian patience is worn thin and relates how near Italy came to an army revolt in December, l94O, when the Duce brugquely dismissed Italy's leading general, Marshal Badoglio.
