 Eisenhower made no mention of any peace terms, however.
 "The greatest obstacle which di- vided the Italian people from the United Nations has been removed by the Italians themselves" he con- tinued. "The remaining obstacle on the road to peace is the German aggressor who is still on Italian soil.
 You want peace. You can have peace immediately and peace under the honorable conditions which our governments already have offered you"
 Eisenhower said that the Allies already have demonstrated in Sicily that any occupation of the Italian mainland would be mild and bene- ficient."
 Your men will return to their life and to their productive avoca- tions," he said.
 If the Italians prevent the Ger mans from taking captured and Americans from Italy, Eisenhower said, hundreds of thousands of Italian prisoners captured in Tu- nisian will return to the count less Italian homes who long for | them"
 "The ancient liberties and tradi- tions of your country will be re- stored" he said.

Continued from Page Il of the petroleum products situation, Eastman's request would have gone to the petroleum requirements con- mittee. It never was brought before that group and Eastman has exer- cised his right to appeal from the allocation to War Production Board Chairman Donald M. Nelson.
 PAW officials insisted that failure of the request to come before the requirements committee did not constitute arbitrary action by Ickes, nor was it intended as snub for Eastman. They said the matter was discussed at a conference among Eastman, Deputy PAW Administra- tor Ralph K. Davis, Price Adminis- trator Prentiss M. Brown and other officials at which time Eastman was told that the additional supplies were unavailable
 New Study
 About this time, Brown proposed to War Mobilization Director James F. Byrnes that complete new study be made of the gasoline supply situ- ation, and Byrnes agreed. The study was reported today to be nearing it's final stages and in some quarters Ickes' optimistic statement was viewed as preparing the way for re- peal of the pleasure driving ban which is expected to be ordered by Brown on the basis of the findings.
 Ickes and his chief advisers here tofore have opposed any relaxation in the ban until there had been a sharp improvement in the supply situation. Brown and his aides be- lieve holders of basic A cards should be entitled to use their gasoline as they see fit. Chester BoWles, new general manager of OPA, objects to the ban s"rationing upon ration ing"
 The fact that the midwest and southwest will be drained of supplies to feed the gasoline-parched east was made known by Davies. But Ickes said on July IT, the PAW would, within 30 to 60 days, recom- mend the equalizing of gasoline ra- tioning throughout the United States, east of the Rocky Moun- tainS.

 The WFA indicated however that the cut in the civilian supply of fats of heavy wartime demands.
 The total amount of the edible fats and oils available for the next 12 months was estimated by WFA at 8,180,300,000 pounds, other ex- ports 18S. 10000 pounds.
 The WFA indicated however that the cut in the civilian supply of fats and oils was not nearly as great as might have been expected in view of heavy wartime demands.
 Total Edible Fats
 The total amount of the edible fats and oils available for the next 12 months was estimated by WFA at 8,180 100000 pounds. The military will get 654,6Oo,000 pounds. lend- lease 1860, BOG, ,000 pounds, other ex- ports 188,200,O00 pounds and con- tingency reserve 50,000,Ooo pounds.

Sicily Towns Fall U. s.

Axis defenses now hinged on San Stefano on the north coast. (An Italian communique broad cast by Rome radio said the attacks on the north and central fronts the American Canadian areas were made with great violence and massed air support" It add ed that hard fighting was in prog ress but the German communique issued by Berlin radio said the cen- tral front attacks were stopped)
 Capture of Gangi
 Capture of Gangi moved the Americans to within 75 miles of Messina, big east coast port on the northeastern tip of the Axis Sicili- an escape bridgehead, and only five miles from the main defenses. The U. s. troops were known to be edging far in advance of their main lines and already may be slam ming into the German and Italian forces.
 The communique gave no details Ol SlOullu etSo1Oll Oll CllS LII Ae1oAA 9th army front below Catania but Allied planes concentrated their at tacks on enemy transport around the base of Mt. Etna, scene of the strongest Axis resistance.
 (The Exchange Telegraph in London heard Swiss radio report that the Germans were methodically destroying military installations at Catania possibly preparatory to Withdrawing)
 A-36 Invaders and P-4O Warhawks destroyed at least 30 enemy vehicles in attacks on communications while medium bombers yesterday raided the Regalbuto communications cen- ter in the center and hit at ship ping off the Sicilian coast. Other planes carried out sweeps over Sar- dinia. Three enemy planes were shot down for loss of one Allied aircraft.
 8A Mile Push
 The capture of Pollina by Lieut.. Gen. George s. Pattons sWift-mov- ing Americans represented a push of eight and a half miles from Ce- falu, reported taken only yesterday, while the capture fo Gangi carried the troops tive miles east of Pe- tralia, their last previous strong point in the sector. San Stefano is only II miles from Pollina.
 The communique, reporting heavy fighting in the center for the sec- ond straight day, said the Can adians nevertheless made steady progress.
 More and more Allied planes were using Sicilian fields while reports to headquarters indicated the Axis forces squeezed back into the north eastern corner have no regular air. fields left and are using hastily cleared pastures and fields.
 Allied troops now hold the seven airfields around Gerbini, west of Catania, field reports said, but Axis guns emplaced in the foothills of Mt. Etna prevent their use.
 Coastal aircraft stepped up their patrols over the waters around Sicily and the Italian coast until their rate is now averaging one en- emy ship sunk every two days.

sition to the mastering pay, un- employment insurance, credit for old-age insurance, and the provi- sions for disabled veterans, but there was a possibility that the pro. posal for government subsidized education of veterans might raise questions.
 The government has taken over many of the colleges in the country for the armed forces. MT. Roose- velt's proposal was not interpreted as meaning continuation of that policy, but rather plan to provide veterans wishing to continue their education with the necessary funds.
 Objections Likely
 Any proposal to continue govern ment control of institutions of higher learning would draw strong objections from both congressman and educators. Many of the latter already are concerned about the future of higher education as a re- suit of the governments war pro- gram, especially in the field of the professions such as medicine, law, engineering.
 But to MT. Roosevelt's plan to help veterans return to civilian life and compensate them, in some small measure, for the economic and other sacrifices made, hardly an objecting voice in congress is ex- pected.
 Our gallant men and women in the armed services must not be demobilized into an environment of imitation and unemployment. to place on a bread line, or on cor ner selling apples" MT. Roosevelt said. we must, this time, have plans ready-instead of waiting to do hasty, inefficient and, ill-con- sidered job at the last moment"
 He said he had assured the armed forces that the American people would not let them down, and ap- pealed to congress to do its duty in this regard"
 He emphasized, however, that returning veterans would be only part of the postwar problem, and cited the demobilization of millions of other Americans who have been working and living in a war econ ony since 1941.
 That larger objective of recon verting wartime America to a peace time basis is one for which your government is laying plans to be submitted to the congress for action" he said.

by President Roosevelt and Chur- chill at their Casablanca confer ence and the four freedoms outlined in the Atlantic charter.
 Eisenhower also held out to the Italian people the promises of a mild and beneficient" occupation and the return of all Italian priS- oners captured in Sicily and Tunisia provided Allied prisoners are re- stored intact.
 (The British alone hold at least 41O,0OO Italian prisoners and tens of thousands of others are in Americans hands, while only 10000 British and comparatively small number of Americans have fallen into Italian hands.)
 It was believed Badoglio would find it most difficult to hold the Italians in line unless they ac- tually want to remain in the war with the Allies on record with pledges of such treatment.
 The offer to return Italian pris- oners was believed an especially powerful one, since many 1JallanS soldiers have been away from home five to six years. Furthermore, Germany's refusal to release the French prisoners long has been a major factor in compelling the Vichy government to do Nazi bid- ding in vain attempts to gain free dom for their imprisoned soldiers.
 The Allied commander told the Italians that his armies were com- ing to Italy as "liberators".
 The message was broadcast to the Italian people in Italian and relayed to Europe in French, Ger man and English.

 Three big fires were left burning at Kassel, where the main target was the Fiesler Flugzeugwerke, which assemblies Germany's crack Focke Wulf 190 fighters. Clouds and heavy overcast obscured results at Oschersleben, where the Ago Flug- zeugwerke, which manufactures and assemblies fighter planes, was hit heavily.
 American medium bombers joined laying a pattern of explosives in yesterdays daylight offensive by across the coke ovens at Zeebrugge in Belgium while RAF fighter bombers attacked enemy airflelds at Cortrai Belgium, and Merville, north France.
 A few German bombers flew over the east Anglian coastal district last night, dropping bombs at one or two points, but only slight dam age and no casualties were re- ported. A brief air raid alarm was sounded in London.
