The Germans were forced to re-

The French were reported holding
a commanding hill south of Fondouk
while the Axis forces regrouped
miles to the east.

0'DanieI Again Plans
Bill 10 Prohibit Beer
In MiIitayAreas
Green to Reintroduce
His Proposal to 'Droft',
Silver for War Use
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Senator ODaniel, Democrat, OF
Texas announced today his inten-
ton to lay before Congress again
proposal to Danish beer and stronger
alcoholic drinks from Army camps,
naval stations and surrounding ter
ritory.
He told reporters he would intro
duce in the new Congress = bill
similar to that which died with the
old session after the Senate demon
strated opposition to such partial
prohibition.
His bill. he said, would prohibit
the sale Of alcoholic beverages in the
camps and within . radius of them
to be determined by the command
ing officers. A measure along the
same lines was introduced by the
late Senator Sheppard OF Texas
early In 194l. was reported by the
Military Affairs Committee in May
OF that year without recommended
ton and lay on the calendar
throughout the session.
Not 4 Serious Problem.
The Senate did, however, reject a
similar measure offered by former
Senator Lee. Democrat, of Okla
homa, as an amendment to the
teen-age draft bill. Opponents con-
tended it would have been the
opening wedge for return Of pro-
hibition on q wider scale as in the
World War. The War and Navy
Departments opposed it, with state
ments that they had the situation
under control.
Since then the ONCE OF War In
formation has reported that there
is not excessive drinking among
troops, and drinking does not con-
stitute a serious problem"
The ODaniel bill Is only one OF
several dealing with various sub
jects that are to be revived, their
sponsors say, after failing Of passage
in previous sessions.
Senator Green, Democrat, OF
Rhode Island said he would rein
troduce his bill to draft silver
for wartime use by authorizing the
Treasury to sell the metal from its
| non monetary stocks at so cents an
| ounce.
Marriage Amendment.
His bill in the last Congress was
talked to death by Senator McCar-
ran. Democrat OF Nevada, but Sen
ator Green said it would be harder
for the opponents to talk two years
than two weeks"
IN that sense, I think I won the
filibuster instead Of losing It," HI
told reporters.

.Detroiters See
Italian Shakeup
AS Good Omen

The overthrow of MusSolini was
good omen for the Allies. in the
opinion of a number Of Detroiters
Of Italian ancestry.
Among those commenting opti-
unsteady on the fall of the die
tator were the Rev. Valentino
Panizzoli. pastor of the Detroit
Italian Baptist Church; Atty. Emil
w. Colombo, who has two sons in
The American armed forces, and
the Rev. John G. ViSmara, pastor
Of ST. GATHERINGS Roman Catholic
Church.
VERY BEST SIGN
The sudden turn in European
events spells the end Of faScism in
Italy. according to the Rev. Mr..
PaniZZoli, who added:
II cannot m p h as re too
strongly that this change is the
very best sign we have had from
Italy. believe Italy soon will
be out OF the war, and may even
cooperate with the United
Nations"
Father Mismara regarded ap-
pointment of Marshal Badoglio a
highly favorable sign both for
Italians and the United Nations,
adding:
THE Italian people did not
want TINS war, which was fOisted
upon them. They craved peace
when there were only rumblings
in Europe and the desire must
be enhanced by now. The Ital-
ians are a peaceable people and
feel their desires will prevail
on their new rulers for an early
peace"
NOT PEOPLES CHOICE
Atty. Colombo expressed himself
as pleased that Mussofini had been
deprived of power.
He Was not the peoples
choice" he said. However, I
am surprised that King Victor
Emmanuel has stated they
would continue to fight.
II am inclined TO consider this
as only a statement OF the mo
ment and the change may well
be the prelude to Italy's with
drawal from the war"
