time he was sent overseas to Eng
land five months later, and he was
promoted to the rank of full colonel
while stationed there with the 9Th
Air Force. After his service in Eng
land, he was transferred to head
quarters Of the 18th Air Force in
Africa.
Col. Ayling's wife, Mrs. Lucie D.
Alylng, lives at the Connecticut ave-
nue. address. There are two stepsons

The American total was increased

was so thin you could circle his

apparently had died of starvation.
AS survivors identified the bodies
they screamed in despair and those
unseen behind the door waiting to
get in took up their cry.
Nazis Tried Conscription.
Street fighting broke out after
the Germans ordered the citizens
to give up their guns and told 10000
italian men of the classes of 1910
and 1925 to report for labor con-
scription September "a" said our
interpreter, Umberto Franco. an
Italian glass manufacturer. when
only $50 men reported, the Ger
mans shot down the next day II
Carabinieri-State police-in cold

The Germans said they would
kill all pepole found with guns in
their homes after that date. We do
not keep guns, but many soldiers
turned thier carbines over to our
young people or joined with them in
flghting the Germans who began
killing at will
1t was almost impossible to re-
main more than a few moments in
this room of death.
We were unable to bury them be-
cause we have no carts to remove
the bodies said the director Of the
hospital. Prof Josef Marinclli.
Come. I will take you through the
rest Of the hospital We have 1900
patients-600 Of them suffering from

Halls of Misery.
He opened the door to the first of
three great halls of misery and
pointed down the long room where
a third of the patients had been
stretched out on mattresses on the
floor between double rows of beds.
Each sick or wounded person was
surrounded by relatives who had

left the Germans took all of our

said, were brought in today

street all night after being shot by
the retreating Germans.
Wounded Cheered.
We were the first persons wear
ing American uniforms that these
sick and wounded people had seen.
They cheered and tried to sit up in
bed, They tried to grasp and kiss
our hands.
One man on the floor smiled and
waved You had to lbok close at
the soiled Blanket across his body to
notice that both his legs had been
blown away This morning"
Franco whispered.
Next to him an old man lay
silently with his life ebbing out Of
hole in his head, His daughter
mopped up his blood, sobbing. There
was no one in her world at that
moment but her father.

was blown off. The woman's face
was turning visibly white with the
pallor Of death.
Nothing Could Help.
When Prof Marinelli explained
that nothing could help, the daugh-
ter made a sound like a shot animal
and began rubbing her mothers
hands.
One elderly woman with her left
shoulder shot away silently mo-
toned me to bend over. When |

Occasionally some woman in the
room would moan softly. Others
would take it up and soon their
sadness would wash down the long
line Of patients like wave.
Side by side on the floor lay two
brothers, s and years old, and
guarding them was a 16-ycar-old
brother with bandage around a
skull wound left by a German rife
