Many Bombs Dropped.
From Nav 20 to June 10 greater
tonnage of bombs was dropped Oh
Pantelleria than on all targets in the
Mediterranean theater during May.
Many hundreds of sorties were flown
against the tiny. rocky base.
AS the white flag was seen floating

The commander of Allied forces on
the mainland was notified and steps

mediately.
Valued by the Axis as a base for
submarines and small naval craft
and with an airport which once sup
piled fighters and bombers for raids
on Allied shipping, Pantelleria paid
dearly for its strategic position as a
stepping stone between Africa and
Europe.
Politically, Pantelleria is a seq
ment of Sicily, part of Trapani
Province of that larger island, and
thus is the first soil of Metropoli-
tan Italy to fall into Allied hands.

four miles wide and eight miles long,

The fall of Pantelleria-three years
and one day after Italy entered the
war-Was announced in special
Allied communique, which said
The island of Pantelleria today
surrendered and is being occupied
by Allied forces.
This surrender is the result of a
series Of continuous and intense air
bombaroments supported by naval
bombardments. Two previous offers
'summons) to surrender made to
the commander were ignored
81 Axis Fighters Downed
Thirty-seven enemy fighters were
shot down in combat during the
aerial attack and two others were
destroyed over the Tyrrhenian Sea,
north of Sicily From all operations,
six Allied aircraft failed to return.

covery casually to another officer.
The effect was about the same as
you'd get if you told ]. Edgar
Hoover that you'd caught Hitler
in bear trap in your back yard.
Then we told Consolazio about
it. Spealman said.
At Bethesda, in the months be
fore Spealman arrived, Consolazio
had been working to find out
everything possible about life as 1t
is lived on rubber raft at sea.
In the course of this, Consolazlo
and his men starved and dehy-
drafted themselves into a reason

y VAvY Lieutenant William V.
III Consolazio tilted the big
y jug and poured some of its
contents into a glass. | gulped it
down.
That's the first time you ever
drank the Atlantic Ocean out of
a glass;" he said. How does it
taste?"
1t tasted family bitter, like we'll
water. There was no trace Of salt.
But | wasn't thinking so much of
the taste just then. was thinking
of what this invention. which
changed sea water into drinking
water, would mean to thousands
of American fighting men.
Two young officers of the
United States Navy perfected
the process. Lieut.. Consolazio,
who starved and tortured himself
into semi-ghostliness. and Lieu
tenant G.g) c. R. Spealman, who
started the work because he was
told that it was impossible and
stuck at it in the face of heart
breaking difficulties. Lieut.. Speal-
man told me the story.
Il was teaching physiology at
the Medical College of Virginia
in Richmond" he said.
"One night l was reading an
article in a scientific journal which
told about efforts to find a chemi-
cal method to make salt water
drinkable. The writer said this was
impossible - because there was no
way to remove the salt.
"Don't Say That to Me"
WELL, was challenged by such
dogmatic statement. | started
thinking about the problem. FL
nally. | decided that, theoretically
at least, it was not impossible.
But the idea l hit on was so
simple that it never occurred to
me that the Army and Navy had
MT worked out the same thing"
And so, having thought up a
formula which had eluded scien-
fists for centuries, Spealman tucked
the information away in the back
of his mind and calmly went on
about his business.
But Fate came to the rescue.
For Spealman was commissioned
in the Navy and assigned to the

Frantic Haste

Z OR three months, Spealman and
Consolazio worked like a pair of
madmen. They completed research
in three months that ordinarily
would have taken three years. FL
nally, after overcoming lnnumer-
able difficulties, they had the thing
licked.
No one has ever accused the
Navy of plunglng recklessly Con-
solazlo was invited to attend a
meeting of Navy research board.
The room where the board met was
filled with inventors and their
equipment. The board listened as
it was explained how each device
worked. Finally, Consolazio got
permission to demonstrate his proc
ess. A few minutes later he
passed the drinking water
around. He was the only in
ventor who actually produced
drinkable water that day.
Eventually. the device was given
actual tests at sea and worked like
a Norden bombsight.
The equipment is very simple
and compact. Using it. a man can
make sea water into drinking water
in 80 minutes. It's no more COM
plicated than mixing Martini,
and it's now available to the Navy,
the Merchant Marine, the Army
Air Corps and other services.
Meanwhile, Spealman and Con-
solazio have gone on to other re-
search. In big icebox at Bethes-
da, there is fve-gallon jug of
sea water which has been purified
by their process. Every once in a
while one of them opens the re-
frigerator and pours himself a
good stiff slug of it.

Seaplane Tender Named
For Capt. Kenneth Whitinq

The Navy announced today that
a new seaplane tender will be named
for Capt. Kenneth Whiting, who
died In the Naval Medical Center,
Bethesda, Md, April "a. The vessel
is now under construction at the
Seattle e-Tacoma Shipbuilding Co.,
Seattle.
Capt. Whiting, whose home was at
Newport, r. l., was a pioneer in the
fields Of aviation and submarine
operations. He was taught to fly in
1914 by Orville Wright. He was COM
mended for duty during the World
War as commander of the first aero
nautical detachment sent to France.
During his service on submarines,
he demonstrated a means Of escape
from sunken submarine by per-
mitting himself to be expelled from
q torpedo tube of the submarine
Porpoise. The experiment was con-
Quoted while the submarine lay on
the bottom Of Manila Bay.

In Spain, she says there are very
few Conservatives of dance. Most
of the people there study singing
and instruments when they 60 to
school. In America, though. she
finds a surprising number of schools
and conservatories devoted exclu-
sively to dancing.
American dancing, especially tap
dancing, is very popular in Spain,
according to Argentinita. In fact,
she declared, one had hard time to
find any real Spanish dancing in the
theaters there, so enthused are they
with American numbers.
The reason for this, she believes.
is that the basic sense of rhythm of
the two peoples is the same.
Tonight Argentinita and her COM
pany will do nine Spanish and Latin
American dances. including a chor-
geography to Ravels "Bolero" which
she has found popular with aud
fences in this country.

When an American thinks of
Spain. thoughts of dancing are apt
to follow, but Spanish Dancer Ar
gentinita says it works the other
way around with her.
The dark-eyed dancer and her
equally dark-eyed sister, Pillar Lopez,
explained to reporters at press
conference yesterday that they
spoke mot very we'll English" They
are here for their appearance with
two male dancers, Jose Greco and
Manolo Vargas, at $50 tonight with
the National Symphony Orchestra
at the Water Gate.
Although she was born in Argen-
tina, Argentinita has lived in Spain
since she was six While there is
a great deal of impromptu dancing
there, she says, many more people
here actually study the art.
Started Studying at Five.
She herself, she pointed out, was
different. She started to study
dancing in Argentina when she was
five. A year later the family moved
to Spain, but the little girl continued
the lessons.
When I was seven," she said,
picking her words carefully, Il went
to a park in San Sebastian with my
mother. There was band play
ing, and when I heard the music I
had to express myself the best I
knew howl started to dance"
Soon crowd had gathered about
the child. and shortly after that
police arrived to stop the perform
ence which had congested traffic.
The little girl and her mother
were taken to the station, but when
it had been explained that the
child was merely gratifying her ar
tistic urge, they were released. Soon
after, however, an agent who saw
the story in newspaper sought
out the young dancer and made her
an offer to dance professionally.
