IT Is beng made plain %
the Italian people that the
sooner they act TO help rid
themselves Of faSGsm and their
alliance with HiiIerISm the
sooner they can have peace and
moro lenient treatment from
the Allies.
An attempt is being made 10
tell Italy's masses, IN effect
that freedom is moi a gift II Is
an achievement; that they must
not merely wait 10 be liberated
by the Allied armies, but must
fight 10 help regain their own
freedom.
II is being emphasized in the
radio broadcssts that the Italian
people cannot hope for peace
as long as MussolIni and the
Fascist regime remain in power.
AS the Allied bombs rain
death and destruction on Italys
cities, the people are being told
that they must decide quickly
whether they intend 10 let their
nationhood ebb on, as
servant of Nazi Germany or
whether they will act TO safe
guard their future destiny.
SOME OF these Allied broad
casts are being beamed 10 Italy
from Tripoli, which formerly
was part of the Italian radio
network. Therefore. il is hoped
the appeals can be picked up
by the Italians on their home
radio sets.

people cannot do much by them
selves to get rid OF Mussolinl,
II is believed the Italian army
might be able 10 overthrow the
Fascist regime and possibly
force the Germans TO abandon
the country if il had the sup
port Of public opinion.
Winning over that public
opinion is the aim Of the Allied
talkie campaign that is now be-
ing intensified along with the
aerial bombing.
There are indications that the
bombs and the talks will be
given an opportunity this sum-
mer TO soften up Italy before
the lives OF American and other
Allied soldiers are sacrificed IN
any major attempt 10 invade

House Republicans
Back Compromise on
Trade Agreements
Dirksen Drafts Plan
To Meet Objections
Raised by Minority
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Strong Republican support for
a compromise reciprocal trade
agreement measure promised to-
day to take much of the fire out
of a forthcoming House debate
over extending the Presidents
authority to negotiate foreign
trade pacts.
The authority, first granted in
1884, expires June IL and the House
Ways and Means Committee ex-
poets to act soon on a renewal pro-
posal.
Republicans generally have op-
posed the whole program on the
ground the President was using the
authority to break down tariffs pro-
tecting American business.
The compromise proposal, re-
ported to have been accepted tenta-
lively by influential House Republi-
cans, was drafted by Representative
Dirksen, Republican, of Illinois, who
said he believed it met most of his
colleagues basic objections.
There appears to be some con-
Germ about the attitude of Congress
on the reciprocal trade proposal
Mr. Dirksen said. debt is one of
the bitter fruits of war. 1t can be
discharged only by the flow and
exchange of goods and services. De-
veloping trade in the postwar world
in order to maintain our domestic
economy and well-being will be one
of our principal tasks, and I expect
to support an extension of the
trade agreement program
No political party, Mr.. Dirksen
said, could afford at this time to
oppose continuation of the foreign
trade program.
The compromise which Mr.. Dirk
sen said he would submit at the
proper time" would require ade-
quate notice before a trade agree
ment is concluded. The purpose, he
said, is to give affected business and
industry ample time to request mod
ifications.
The Dirksen plan also would set
up an advisory committee repre-
senting agriculture, labor, industry
and the public generally, with au-
thority to review any projected
agreement and recommend changes.
Mr.. Dirksen said he was certain
the procedural notifications he pro-
posed would "in no way veto the
power of the President to conduct
negotiations and conclude trade
agreements with other nations" but
would divest the negotiations of the
secrecy which has heretofore at
tended them"

and murders against peaceful citi-
zens as well as Soviet war prisoners.
A broadcast by the Moscow radio,
recorded by the Soviet monitor said
"history has known no such ex-
termination of people" as the Ger

"Hitler's army tortures and kills
all those who are not wanted by
the Germans, and those who can
work are carried off like cattle to
the slave markets in Germany"
the commissions report said.
Some of the atrocities alleged
against the Nazis in the report
included:
Forcing "a men and women at
Vyazma on December 10, 1912, to

Morgenthau 10 Give
Full Details Today on
World Currency Plan
Silver Bloc in Congress
Prepares to Challenge
Gold-Bucked 'Unitus'
BY the Associated Press.


A broad outline of the adminis-
tratlon'S program to stabilize
postwar currencies took form to-
day as Secretary of the Treasury
Morgenthau went to Congress to
tell more about proposals which
he says may be a factor in win
ming the war.
The Secretary outlined at closed
session of three Senate committees
yesterday a plan to tie world cur
rencies to gold, establish an inter-
national stabilization fund of per-
haps S5,000,000,000 and by mutual
ag1 cement put an end to competi-
tive currency wars among nations.
These proposals, which he de-
scribed to members of the Senate
Foreign Relations, Banking and
Currency, and Postwar Economy
and Planning Committees in ex-
traordinary session, will be dis
cussed in further detail by the Sec
retary today with members of the
House Foreign Affairs, Coinage,
Weights and Measures, and Bank
ing and Currency Committees.
To Give Full Details
Later today, Mr.. Morgenthau told
reporters. he will make public full
details of the tentative proposals for
postwar currency stabilization which
the Treasury has submitted to the
"a nations that have been invited to
send representatives here to discuss
the problem.
Reports from London said an in
terallied conference on currency
problems was scheduled in WASH
in9ton this month, but Mr.. Mergen-
thau said no date had been set for
a formal meeting. He said United
Nations "technicians' would confer
with American officials whenever
they can arrange transportation to
this country.
The London report was the latest
of a series emanating from the
British capital on American cur
rency plans which moved the Secre-
tary to a display of annoyance at
his press conference yesterday, and
which are believed responsible for
his decision to reveal the entire
Treasury program to the public to-
day.
He attributed what he called
leaks to the governments in exile
in London and expressed confidence
the currency disclosures had not
come from official British sources.
Silver Bloc Challenge.
The Secretary's suggestion to fix
currency values on the basis of gold
brought an immediate challenge
from the silver bloc in Congress,
members of which, they said, would
fight 70 have silver included in any
stabilization plan.
Mr.. EIorgenthau told the Senate
committees that the Treasury was
deeply concerned with the threat
of international monetary chaos at
the end of the war" and believed
that work should begin now on
