said.
SEVER LINES
The object Of the Smelling,

parenuy was TO cut one of the
routes by which the Axis might
send reinforcements TO the toe
of the Italian boot for trans
shipment 10 Sicily.
This shipment involves a cir
cuitous route down the eastern
coastal railway, and may be
used more intensively since the
bombing Of Rome.
Gen. Dwight d. Eisenhower in
a press conference yesterday in
North Africa said the Germans
were still sending reinforce
mcntS TO Sicily. -------
The German Radio added to-
day that a day and night shut
tie service ferrying Axis troops
across Messina Straits was US
ing 80 fast motor launches.
The bombardment was the
first by Allied surface craft
since the invasion Of Sicily and
the second of the year. The
first naval bombardment of the
mainland was at Genoa on Feb.

POSSIBLE FACTORS
