No criminal will be allowed to escape by the expedient of resignation"
 Terms Remain Same
 Our terms to Italy are still the same as our terms to Germany and Japan - unconditional sur render"
 We will have no truck with Fascism in any way, shape or manner. We will permit no vestige of Fascism to remain.
 Eventually Italy will reconsti- ute herself. It will be the people of Italy who will do that. choosing their own government in accord ance with the basic democratic principles of liberty, and equality In the meantime, the United Ma tions will not follow the pattern set by Mussolini and Hitler and the Japanese for the treatment of occupied countries - the pattern of pillage and starvation.
 We are already helping the Ital- ian people in Sicily. With their cordial cooperation, we are estab- fishing and maintaining security and order we are disSolving the organizations which have kept them under Fascist tyranny-We are pro- viding them with the necessities of life until the time comes when they can fully provide for them selves.
 Indeed, the people in Sicily today are rejoicing in the fact that, for the first time in years, they are permitted to enjoy the fruits of their own labors-they can eat what they themselves grow instead of having it stolen from them by the Fascists and the Nazis.
 In every country conquered by the Nazis, the Fascists or the Japanese militarists, the people have been reduced to the status of slaves or chattels.
 It is our determination to re- store these conquered peoples to the dignity of human beings, masters of their own fate, en- titled to freedom of speech, free dom of religion, freedom from want freedom from fear. We have started to make good on that promise.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-07-29

, lessons from the civilian popula- tions of our Allies-Britain, China, Russia - and of all the lands occu- pied by our common enemies.
 The heaviest and most decisive fighting today is going on in Rus sia. I am glad that the British and we have been able to contri- bute somewhat to the striking powers of the Russian armies.
 In 1941-42 the Russians were able to retire without breaking, to move many of their war plants from western Russia far into the interior, to stand together with complete unanimity in the de- fense of their homeland.
 The success of the Russian armies has shown that it is danger ous to make prophecies about them "a fact forcibly brought home to that mystic master of strategic intuition. Herr Hitler.
 The short-lived German offen- sive, launched early this month, was desperate attempt to bolster the morale of the German people. The Russians were not fooled by this. They went ahead with their own plans for attack-plans which coordinate with the whole United Nations offensive strategy.
 The world has never seen greater devotion, determination and self sacrifice than have been displayed by the Russian people and their aNnies, under the leadership of Marshal Joseph Stalin.
 With nation which, in saving itself is thereby helping to save all the world from the NaA men, ace, this country should always be glad to be good neighbor and a sincere friend in the world of the future.
 In the Pacific we are pushing the Japs around from the Aleu- tians to New Guinea. There, too, we have taken the initiative-and we are not going to let go of it.
 It becomes clearer and clearer that the attrition, the whiting down process against the Jap anese is working. The Japs have lost more planes and more ships than they have been able to re- place.
 The continuous and energetic prosecution of the war of attrition will drive the Japs back from their over extended line running from Burma and Siam and the Straits Settlement through the Netherlands Indies to eastern New Guinea and the Solomons. We have good req son to believe that their shipping and their air power cannot support such outposts.
 Tip To Japs
 Our naval, land and air strength in the Pacific is constantly grow ing. If the Japanese are passing their future plans for the Pacific on a long period in which they will be permitted to consolidate and exploit their conquered re- sources, they had better start re- vising their plans now. I give that to them merely as a helpful sug- gestion.
 We are delivering planes and vi- tai war supplies for the heroic armies of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, and we must do more at all costs.
 Our air supply line from India to China across enemy territory con- tinues despite attempted Japanese interference. We have seized the initiative from the Japanese in the
