DEAN ALLEN
 ALLOWED 10
 LEAVE BOAT
Authorities Permit Youth
 10 Visit Folks in Juneau

Dean Allen, son of MT. and Mrs Tom Allen of Juneau, was permit ted to get off the boat in Juneau to visit with his folks today by travel authorities after losing two days of his leave going to Skagway and back.
 Allen, member of the Army Transport Service, should have had travel permit the same as any civilian to enter Alaska, according to local travel control authorities.
 Members of the regular Army, however, do not need such per mits The Seattle office reported to the Associated Press that Allen did not need to have a permit be- cause he was a soldier, evidently chasing him in the same category.
 Members of the Army Transport Service are civil servants and not members of the regular Army, al- though wearing similar uniform with a different insignia. Allen has been serving as a machine gunner on an ATS vessel and spent the latter part of his service in the Aleutians at Attu.
 Both Alaska Delegate Anthony J. Dimond and Gov Ernest Gruen- ing used their efforts to have the youth released.

(By Associated Press)

The Italian Chamber Easel and it's corporations has been dissolved by order of Premier Pietro Bado- glio, the Rome radio reports.
 The Chamber took the place Of the Chamber of Deputies after that 90-year-old agency was dis solved in December, 1938 Under Benito Mussolini, the Chamber was made up of 150 members oi the National Fascist Council.
 Badoglio's order also banned the formation of any political party for the duration of the war and prohibited the display of any po- litical insignia.
 The new Premier announced the release of thousands of prisoners who were rounded up under Mus Solini.
 At the same time, reports were spread that revolts were in the making and suggested that the control of Italy might be wrested from Badoglio or he might be con- pelled to sue for immediate peace

CRISIS IS NOTED FOR
 BULGARIA
Collapse of Italy Might Cause Balkan Nation
 to Break

ISTANBUL, Turkey, July 29.-A serious Bulgarian crisis appears to be developing as result of Mus solini's downfall and indications are that Bulgaria may be the first Balkan satellite to break away from the Axis if Italy surrenders.
 Bulgaria's position and that of other Balkan powers to a lesser extent is reported changing rapid ly since the Italian upheaval. The immediate collapse of Germany's partners was considered only remote possibility before this week.
 Bulgaria now holds all of Yugo- slav Macedonia, part of Grecian Macedonia, and the Italian collapse will affect her more directly than any other of the southeastern na- tions of the German camp.

said that the conduct of the wal effort is constantly improving. He spoke very highly of the War Pro- duction Board but said the Office of Price Administration gives us most acute anxiety at this time"
 He said that a great fault with the OPA was that when regulations are made the officials refuse to change them no matter how wrong they may be.
 Fish Problem
 Dimond also touched or the prob- lem of Alaska fishermen in the new fishing regulations which class sable fish according to size even though this has never been the practice in Alaska. Washington officials, he said. made this regulation without consulting anyone in Alaska.
 Dimond also condemned the new rule by which exporters in the States must take shipments sent to Alaska out of their ration quotas. He said this was worse than ra- tioning. Prentiss Brown, OPA Ad- ministrator, he said, wrote him a letter before he left Washington saying that there was no thought of rationing Alaska. Other officials, he pointed out, told him there were no changes-yet this regulation had already been written.
 Dimond will be in Juneau until tomorrow when he plans to leave for Haines and Skagway.

 Meanwhile, according to the Do- mel broadcast, political quarters in Tokyo expressed belief that devel- opments in Italy will in no way effect Japan's situation and that Japan is determined to continue her efforts and accomplish her great aims for construction of a Greater East Asia.

D|M0ND FAVOR OF

Need Special Session

Evening star., 1943-09-19

monarchy does not come up to its
historic duties it loses justification
for its existence. The basic tend
encies in Italy always have been
more republican than monarchist.
Up to the period of the Italian union
it was the republic which fought
against Italian monarchies which
generally were foreign monarchies.
The state which we wish to estab-
lish anew shall be national and
social, in the best sense of the word
Fascist state as 1t was at its be-
ginning.
Expecting that our movement will
be irresistible, we demand as follows:
First, take up again arms at the
side of Germany. Japan and our
other allies. Blood only can extin-
guish such a shameful page from
the history of our fatherland.
Second, immediate reconstruction
of the army, which will gather
around the militia. He only can be
victorious who carries arms and
fights for his faith.
Third, elimination of the traitors,
especially those who on July Is at
$50 o'clock went over to the new
government and thereby to the
enemy.
Fourth, elimination of the plutoc-
racy and establishment of a social
basis on which. the state may be
erected, supported by the work of
its citizens.
Reform Your Battalions!"
Blackshirts, and you loyal adher-
.ents in the whole Of Italy, I call you
to work again and to take up arms!
If the enemy is pleased about the
capitulation of Italy it does not
mean that he has secured victory.
All the less because our Allies, Ger
many and Japan. will fight up to
Anal victory and never think of
capitulation.
Blackshirts! Reform your battal-
ions which have performed such
