the Commanding Generals, Staff

In series Of automobile acci-

ally injured and nine other persons
received injuries ranging from
critical to minor.
Claire Henegar, 6 year old daugA-
ter OF Mr.. and Mrs. James C. Hene-

injuries received Saturday when
she fell from car driven by her

The child's parents said that she
was riding in the rear of the car
with her year old sister when the

lowing collision between car in

fractured skull and other injuries.
Mrs. Galloway who was a pas
senger in car driven by Carl May
also Of Hunting Hill, had her year
old child on her lap when the ac-
cident occurred. 1t was thought at
first that the child was uninjured
but it became i'll Tuesday night and
was sent into Children's Hospital
on Wednesday for further treat
ment. Young Galloway was treat
ed for arm cuts and Mr.. May for
injuries to his jaw.

Carrying The ished from the
Fight To scene of Italian
Maitland affairs. Perhaps
he is but Berlin
is claiming to have captured"
him and is setting up puppet
government with him as head.
Whether Berlin's claim is true
we can only guess. If it be
true how much effect will such
action have on certain italian
elements who might deem it
proper and patriotic to follow
the Duce? Will the situation in
Italy cause that unhappy coun-
try to become the battle-ground
Of civil war as well as the
scene of the European second
front?
A great deal depends upon
reaction of the italian people
generally to the armistice sought
by General Badoglio. 1t appears
that the Germans had enough
strength in Italy to take over
the entire northern territory. 1t
seems that our Fifth Army
under General Clark has met the
stiffest opposition yet encoun-
tered by American troops. First
impressions of the setbacks to
the Fifth Army are not encour-
+ aging. Yet we cannot help but
feel that complete plans call for
sufficient support at Salerno to
overcome all the counter attacks
of the Nazis. In the reports
from that battle we must be
prepared for our first great cas-
ualty lists. We cannot expect to
continually push forward with
out losses in men and material.
We will continue to press for
ward and the harder we press
our present advantage the earlier
the war will be terminated.
There is confusion also about
conditions in the Balkans. Turkey
seems always to bounce into the
limelight. Russia now is in
quiring what Turkeys position
will be after the war. Turkeys
position as a neutral, Russia
claims, is a hindrance to the
Allied effort. That view is con-
trary to what many have felt
regarding Tur-
Germany's keys neutrality.
Strength She has shown
Divided definite and
strong pro
United Nations attitude. Many
have felt that Turkeys neutral
ity was of great help. 1t is likely
that Turkey will still take an
active part in the mopping-up
process Of Europe. She will want
a place at the peace table and
she must earn that place. AS
the only untouched Balkan mill
tary power she will be feared
by neighbor nations in the early
postwar years. The situation
in Bulgaria and Rumania is not
favorable to the Nazis. Word
comes from neutral sources that
these two countries will not Cffer
resistance if the United Nations
press the European invasion to
their borders. If that be true
the picture is mighty dark for
the German war lords.
As rhe United Nations keep
pressing attacks on the "soft
under-belly of Europe" we have
more and more battle fronts to
follow. Already three points of
invasion are active on the shores
Of Italy. 1t is reported that the
British Mid-East Army is on
the move. Where? We will
soon know. In any and all events
Germany has reached the point
where her great strength has to
be divided and divided again.
She is still powerful. Her SOL
diers are not only good fighters
but they are apparently well
clothed and equipped. The re-
sistance met by Allied forces at
all points indicates that a great

coast all along the western and
southern shores of Europe as
we'll as constant pressure on the
eastern front. Thousands OF
miles Of front and coastline will
have to be defended by the Nazis.
Even with her powerful fighting
forces how long can Germany
stand this murderous pressure?
In addition to the scattering of
her forces she will be faced with
constant bombing attacks. The
end is not in sight but we can't
escape the conclusion that the
last pull is under way. At least
we are Witnessing, in 1943, the
beginning of the end. Perhaps
we are actually Witnessing the
final phases of the war in
Europe.
And If we are, let Japan take
notice that 1914 will be the be-
ginning of another period of
complete isolation (perhaps
obliteration) for her.
