He was Joseph Ray Bair, avia-
ton machinist's mate, third class,

Navy officials today began round
ing up eye-witnesses to give a
board of inquiry their version OF
the explosion.
Although cause of the explosion
was unofficially reported to be
the touching off, by fire, of "a
depth charges, origin of the fire
was unknown. The Navy was 81

Concern that many Wilmington

est share of bonds that are per-
mitted was expressed by Mr.. Ro-

by the Treasury department al

$40, 900 worth of bonds by co-oWn-

Germans Seek To Kick
Italians Back Into Part
nership With Them
MISERY INCREASING
No Food Received In
Rome; Vatican Cut Off
From Outer World
BY VIM. SMITH WHITE

10y w 1us oIV11 IL w LII Il ~
LONDON, Sept. 18.-P)-
Disorders and misery on a
scale not seen since the fall
of France were reported in
Italy tonight as the Germans
sought to kick their beaten
allies back to an unwelcome
partnership with them.
But the Italians were fight
ing back-in increasing num-
bers it appeared. TheyA were
reported ripping up German
communications between nor
thern and Central Italy at a
time when the German COM
mand most urgently needed
them. At some points in the
north they were said to be
standing against the Nazis
and shooting it out.
Chaos
A variety of accounts from neu-
trail and Allied sources pictured
this as part of the chaos in Italy:
l. No food received for days in
Rome. No normal activity resum-
ed in the city for more than a
week after it had gone under Nazi
protection. The Germans are
being compelled to bring in still
more troops.
2. The Vatican ringed abou. and
virtually cut off from the outer
world by Nazi troops. Pope Plus
XII was reported in neutral Stock
holm dispatches to have strongly
protested his status as virtual
prisoner as well as the treatment
of the people in general. The same
dispatches reported that the holy
father had refused twice to see the
German commander, Field Mar
shall Gen. Albert Won Kesselring,
insisting that the Germans must
first evacuate Rome and thus
make good Hitler's promise that
his soldiers would remain outside
the city. The German news agen-
cy DNB claimed, however, that
Luigi Cardinal Maglione, secretary
OF state, had received the Ger
man ambassador.
Fighting
3. Savage fighting between Ger
man and Italian troops along the
Bremen pass railroad line, the
means of entry and exit from it
for the Nazis and at Turin and
other parts of the upper peninsu-
la, including the Genoa region.
4. Turin-Milan industrial re-
gions in semi-paralysis, with anti
Fascist workers refusing to 60 to
their jobs.
S. All northern Italy short of
food, with the Germans confiscat-
ing what is at hand and making
no effort to provide for civilians, a
job which in any case would be
difficult because of the increasing
strain on German communications
and their destruction by Italian
patriots.
6. Leaflets are being distributed
to the Italians urging them to sa-
botage and fight the Nazis.
Violent fighting between Italian
and German troops was reported |
in the Cuneo area, where rem
nants of the fourth Italian army
from France were said to have
been reorganized under the COM
mand of an Italian captain. Nests
Of resistance were also reported |

Islands Command Immedi-
ate Sea Approaches To
Great Italian Port
GERMANS RETREAT
Grim Courage And Great
Air And Sea Superiority
Produce Triumph
BY IVES GALLAGHER

A L L l E D HEADQUAR-
TIERS IN NORTH AFRICA,
Sept. 18.-(P)-Allied naval
units have opened a new
phase in the battle for Italy
by Selling three more islands
commanding the immediate
sea approaches to the great
port of Naples, headquarters
announced today as Allied
ground troops emerged vic
torious in the bloody fighting
at Salerno.
A special communique dis
closed the occupation Of Is
CHA, 16 miles southwest of
Naples, only a few hours af-
ter the regular war bulletin
from Gen. Dwight D. Eisen-
hower's headquarters an
nounced the seizure of two
other islands off the north
ern spur of the Bay of Ma
pies.
Ischia was taken Thursday, one
day after the occupation of Pom
"a, IS miles west of Naples, and
of Procidia, - miles southwest
of Naples and only two miles from
the northern land arm of the bay.
| Allied forces previously had &C.
cupied the island of Capri, on the
southern side of the bay.
Near Mainland
Ischia, largest of the four, has
an area of about rs square miles
and is only seven miles from the
nearest mainland coast.
Berlin broadcast an announce
ment that the Germans had &C.
cupied the island of Elba, Napo-
Icons first home in exile, 80 miles
east of Corsica and eight miles
from the Italian coast. Seven thou
sand Italian troops were said by
the Nazis to have surrendered
there)
Allied armies emerged victors
in the battle of Salerno-first great
engagement with Hitler's legions
for the command of Europe-be-
cause of an abundance of grim
courage On the part of American
and British infantrymen and over
whelming air and sea superiority.
The American Fifth and British
Eighth armies merged in the final
stages of the strategic victory
which enlarged the Salerno bridge
head into full fighting front.
Retreat Southwark
German troops, who tried futile
ly for seven days to hammer the
American and British forces into
the sea, has retreated in the south,
where the Allies smashed inland II
miles, but still chung savagely to
the gateway to Naples in the north.
The headquarters communicate
announced the capture OF the town
of Roccadaspide, II miles inland
from the coast on the southern
flank, where the Germans were
fleeing to escape entrapment.
The victory of Salerno belongs
to the battle-grimed infantrymen
under 1t. Gen. Mark w. Clark
who fought ceaselessly for seven
days without rest and who re-
fused to be budged from their
foxholes on the beaches by Nazis
might and who d'ed rather than
give up an inch.

Henry Trial Adjourned
To Give Jurors Holiday
Week End al Home

The trial Of JefYries Henry, So
former White House and metro
politan policeman, charged with the
murder Of his second wife, stood
adjourned today until Monday. JUS
tice Matthew F. MCGUIRE postponed
further testimony yesterday after
noon until after the holiday week
end, and allowed the jurors, 10 men
and two women, to spend Thanks
giving at home.
Henry is charged with shooting
and killing his second wife, Lola
Jane Henry, in a Thirteenth street
restaurant before attempting to
commit suicide in April.
One of the last witnesses called
by the defense before adjournment
was George S. Chappelle Of the
Metropolitan Police force, who said
he had known the defendant for
IA years and considered him IRA
tional.
Henry was always unpredictable
and was quite heavy drinker," !"
Chappelle said. Henry's conversa-
ton was irrational on their first
detail together, the witness added.
Asked on cross-examination II he
considered the defendant crazy,
Chappelle said:
Il never considered he had good
sense"
Henry's wife, Ruby D. Bittman,
waitress from Marion, N. c., was
excused from further testimony by
the court and was on her way to
Texas.
