This was not the first time in
recent months that there had
been talk in the air Of abdication
by the Italian monarch. Last
May the Morocco radio circulat-
ed reports that the King had alb
Dictated or was about TO do SO.
Talk that Vittorio Emanuele
might surrender his throne was
revived again when Premier
Mussolino was ousted on July 25
and Marshal Pietro Badoglio took
over his place, but eventually it
died down.
Badoglio, upon assuming Of
flee, had pledged his alleg-
lance to the king and called upon
the Italian people for their sup
port in his name.
Vittorio Emanuele, now 70
years old, never had been a
dominating figure in the affairs
OF his nation. He once described
himself as permanent under
secretary TO successive prem
iers" and throughout the reign
of Mussolini ne had been rele-
gated to a position of insignifi-
