Mrs. Roosevelt Now.
In Melbourne After
Visit 10 Canberra
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press.
MELBOURNE, Sunday, Sept. s.
Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt arrived to-
day by airplane from Canberra,
where she met Australian govern
ment officials at reception.
Earlier today formal military
parade climaxed the visit of Mrs.
Roosevelt in Canberra, prior to her
departure for Melbourne.
A reception in her honor at the
Government House in the capital
last night brought out more auto
mobiles than had been assembled
In this sector since early in the war.
Mrs. Roosevelt, standing with
Gov.-Gen. Gowrie and Prime Min
lister John Curtin, shook hands
with more than 500 guests In the
stately reception room. 1t was here
she showed the first signs of fatigue
of her visit.
Her Red Cross uniform was in
marked contrast to the evening
gowns and dinner jackets donned
by the residents here for the first
time in months.
At the reception, Mrs. Roosevelt
exchanged ideas with group of
women leaders in the military aux
iliary services and discussed price
restrictions with the commonwealth
controller, Prof. Douglas Copeland.
Prior to the reception, she visited
the American Legation, the Austria
Ian war memorial and an Ameri-
can naval establishment. Streets
everywhere were lined with persons
seeking glimpse of her.

Blue Light Ban
In BIockouts Is !.
| Stressed Anew

A formal warning that use of blue
lights for blackout purposes is pro-
hibited by Federal civilian defense
regulations was issued last night by
officials of the military district Of
Washington.
The notice, signed by Mai. H. B.
Rumsey, stated:
WAR Department tests conclu-
sively demonstrate that blue light
affects the human eye 1000 times as
much at night as it does during the
day, while red light has the same
affect on the human eye during
either night or day. However. con-
sideration must be given to the fact
that red illumination is not normal
and, II improperly used, may betray
that which 1t intends to conceal"
Standard two-cell flashlights, Lam
terms and other devices with low in
tensity white light may be used, pro-
vided the light is filtered through
three thicknesses of newspaper or
one thickness of newspaper and one
sheet Of red cellophane. The warn
ing was added that light so filtered
should not, during blackouts, be
pointed above the horizontal.

Italy Imminent Fate
Foreseen by Smuts

BY the Associated Press.
PRETORIA, SOUTH AFRICA,
Sept. 4.-Premier Jan Christian
SHUTS in broadcast reviewing four
years of war predicted tonight that
Italy would fall soon.
Although he said another year of
lighting lay ahead before Germany
would be defeated, he asserted Hit
ler's fortress of Europe finally would
disappear physically before the
great day and night Allied air on
slaughts" and that the fifth column
inside Germany would play part
in the Nazi fall.
"A deep revolt is brewing inside
Germany which must in the end be
more catastrophe for Hitler and for
Nazidom than even the horror of
the air war by night" Premier
Smuts said.
Although he cautioned that the
Allies may have very heavy losses"
In the coming year, he declared I'VE
are now rapidly approaching the
great moment which will open the
flnal phase of the war;

man reinforcements and supplies
have been pouring into Northern
Italy over the Brenner Pass rail
line, which was severed two days
ago by heavy Flying Fortress raids
on Trento, Bolzano and Bologna. A
movement of any great number of
troops or large quantities of war
materials farether south, however
particularly beyond Nayles, would
appear to be an almost impossible
task for the Naxis in the present
state of their air force.
They might attempt it. though.
Capt. Sertorious declared in his Nazi
broadcast today that Italy would be-
come "Europes battlefield" if it be-
came evident that the main Allied
invasion effort was directed there.
Meanwhile, an official Allied report
said that "sortie after sortie" of
planes ranged over lower Italy from
dawn to dusk and returned to re-
port no targets for their guns or
bombs. OF the few enemy planes
sighted, five were destroyed and one
Allied ship was missing.
American Liberators from the
Middle East bombed the railroad
yards at Sulmona, rs miles east of

Ross Munro, Canadian Press OBJ
server who landed in Italy with the
initial assault, reported in dispatch
today that he had not yet seen
single German, though he had seen
numerous italian prisoners.
He revealed an ingenious method
by which the Canadian landing
barges were directed to their ap-
pointed spots on the italian coast
in the darkness of yesterday morn
ing. Tracer shells fired on fixed
lines from the Sicilian coast guided
them to the exact points they were
to hit. Mr.. Munro said the beaches
were not mined.
The village of Calico Marino. half
way between Reggie Calabria and
San Giovanni, was the focal point
of the landings and was the first
community on continental Europe
to fall into Allied hands. No enemy
planes were encountered as the
Allied troops swarmed across the
narrow strait under the protection
of thunderous barrage laid down
by the 9th Army's famous artillery.
One big Axis shore gun opened up
during the crossing, but was silenced

the Ordnance Department in get
ting ammunition to the front line,

fully timed and long experience en-
abled ordnance to predict almost to
the minute how long given field
operation would take.
Holabird officials said that "in
unloading from railroad car to
the ground, or from a truck to the
ground, one ordnance soldier un-
loaded ammunition at the rate of
1865 pounds per hour for four con-
tinuous hours.
Whenever possible, he rested four
hours. The soldiers average in un-
loading ammunition during one day
was 1882 pounds"
The average time for unloading
a train of Bottom cars was reported
at 312 hours with II men working
on each car if the unloading was
from side only, and 18 men if con-
ditions allowed unloading from both
sides.
