communique revealed.
Berlin added to the gloomy It'd

The converging blows on Pavlo-

OF the Dnieper River bend, and a
powerful renewed drive southwest of

IA German counterattacks were
beaten down, threatened the early
collapse of enemy resistance east
OF the Dnieper and the possible en-
trapment of huge enemy forces.
Hundreds of guns and tanks and
other German equipment was either
destroyed or captured in the Rus

that at one point, 1000 railway

was the advance.

BY holland NORGAARD,

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN
NORTH AFRICA, Sept. 1.-THE
backbone of the Italian fleet
four battleships, seven cruisers
and six destroyers-sailed into
Allied hands at Malta today after
a spectacular running battle
with the German air force which
sent one battleship to the bot
tom.
The battleship which went down
under the German attack was the
35,000-ton Roma, one of Italy's
newest ships. Those arriving safely
at Malta were the battleships Italia,
formerly the Littorio, the Vittorio
Veneto, both $4,000 tons, the Andrea
Doria and the CATO Duilio, both
$4,000 tons.
Six Cruisers Identified.
The cruisers included the Luigi
di Savoia Duca Degli Abruzzi, the
Giuseppe Garibaldi, the Eugenio di
Savoia, the Emanuele Hitherto Duca
D'Aosta, the Raimondo Montecuc-
coli and the Luigi Cadorna, all 5000
tons. (The seventh cruiser was not
Immediately identif1ed.)
CA dispatch from La Palma de
Mallorca said seven additional
warships stopped in ports Of
SPANS Balearic Islands to drop
wounded survivors of the Roma,
most of whose 1,600-man crew
was reported lost. The ships, re-
ported en- route to surrender at
Gibraltar, we're given "a hours to
leave. They may, however, re-
quest an extension to make re-
pairs.)
Some units of the same squad
ron, which sailed from La Spezia,
were reported to have continued to-
ward Gibraltar but this could not
be confirmed.
(The dispatch did not name the
vessels or give Their types. Inc
35,00o-ton Impero and the $4,000
ton Giulo Cesare have not yet been
reported)
Other Units May Reach Malta.
Additional Italian feet units were
expected to reach Malta shortly,
marking a major bloodless victory
for the Allies.
The major event in the Mediter-
ranean today was the dramatic dash
of Italy's feet from the German
grasp in its greatest show of spunk
during the entire war, in which it
has been largely inactive.

WITH 7th ARMY, Sicily CBy
MaiD Like autumn leaves, piles
of yellow-spotted green paper
were waited by gentle breezes on
the rooftop of Fascist headquar-
tiers in Sicilian city for two
days this month.
Every time the breeze strength
ened and threatened to blow
some of the paper off the roof,
soldiers standing about would fall
face down, pinning great wads of
it beneath them. At other times,
they were engaged in turning
it over.
AS a result of this process, the
45th Division met its payroll on
time. The piles of paper were
