Homes still will be cut considerably
but not excessively, an OPA spokes-
man said. Those with less than 900
square feet of floor space will re-
ceive some adjustment on their ra-

from a few gallons to possibly as

An official communique said the
city, Italy's third largest center and

disclosed that the Americans and
British occupied Naples without fir

Scared by German-set fires and
explosions, and it's harbor blocked
by enemy destruction, Naples was
the biggest prize to fall to Allied
forces since they leaped from Sicily
to the mainland
RUSH TO ROME
A quick rush was expected to
follow toward Rome, with the Al
lied troops endeavoring to keep the
Germans off balance during a bat
tering drive for the Italian capital.
The Allies also were expected to
turn Naples into massive base for
future European operations. Re-
ports indicated the harbor could
be cleared quickly Axis radiv

Piles had said that Field Marshal
Albert Kesselring's German troops

Allied reports showed that the
Germans had done everything pos

the city, tearing up roads and min

D. Eisenhower's communique said
progress was good despite the enc
my's efforts.
Tore Annunziata, II miles from
Naples on the coastal road, fell af-

eastern flank to the city 27 miles
away, also was captured, posing a
threat to the German flank as it
draws back toward defense lines in

LONDON, Oct. CUP) = Some

George c. Marshall is expected to
establish headquarters in or near
London as commander in chief of
the second front in western Europe
which will open the final assault
against Nazi Germany.
The appointment of Marshall,
United States army chief of staff,
is considered as having been
definite since the Quebec conference
of President Roosevelt, Prim e
Minister Winston Churchill, and
their ranking commanders.
But because the establishment of
his headquarters might be tipoff
on the imminence of a landing on
the continent, it likely will be just
as secret as the combined staff
building from which Gen. Dwight
D. Eisenhower operated for months
before the invasion of North

Nurse Wanted to
Study Treatment

An opportunity to learn the Ken
ny treatment for infantile paralysis
in open to an Imperial Valley
nurse, said DR.. E. B. Godfrey, coun-
ty health officer, Friday. Any
nurse interested in taking this six
weeks course, with most of her ex-
penses paid by the government,
should make application with DR..
Godfrey.
"While Imperial county does not
have many cases of infantile par
alysis, it would be an advantage to
have some one here trained in the
Kenny treatment to aid those few
cases we do have. We need some
one who has had training in
physiotherapy and while the regular
hospital nurses are too busy and too
badly needed here to take the
course, we hope some nurse will
apply" said DR.. Godfrey.
