Concerning Fote

LONDON, Aug. 81 - tHl -
A good part of Europe joined
the guessing game today over
the whereabouts of Count Gale
azzo Ciano, former Italian For
eign Minister and son-in-law Of
Benito Mussolini who apparent
~ has escaped from house ar
rest at his home in Rome.
He was variously reported ar
rested near the French frontier,
hiding in the Spanish Embassy
in Rome, and at Innsbruck in
Germany.
At least two reports had CT
ano at Innsbruck. A Reuter- dis
patch from the Italian frontier
said the latest word was that he
had gotten over the border with
the assistance of foreign friends"
and that his escape was causing
great indignation throughout It
ally. This conceded with the Ger
man underground radio Atlantik
report. which said Ciano was at
Innsbruck.

Attorneys for Warren Town
ship School Board No. Z and 63
property owners adjoining a
mile square site in Warren
Township, which the city of De
troit proposes TO condemn for an
airport, won a 80 day delay
from Circuit Judge Fred ".
George, of Port Huron, yester-
day in which 10 appeal 10 the
Michigan Supreme Court, the
denial of injunctive action and
dismissal of the condemnation
suite.
Judge George, on August IS,
dismissed the injunction action
and ruled against the dismissal OF
the condemnation suit. The con-
demnation proceedings institut-
ed by Detroit we're scheduled 10
start yesterday but were post
poned until September %. when
the delay was granted for the
appeal.
Carl j. Thrun, Warren Town
ship attorney, originally asked
for so days delay on the grounds
that the court transcripts were
not yet ready and of the uncer-
tainty OF date when the matter
will be heard by the Michigan
Supreme Court.
Bert r. Soggs, assistant cor
%poration counsel for Detroit, ex.
pressed his dissatisfaction with
the delay. He asserted his desire
TO proceed with the condemna-
ton suit as promptly as possible
because of Detroits anxiety 10
start work on the airport.
Judge George reasoned that
Detroit should not be so impa-
tent as the airport is intended
as a postwar project.
