ston Churchill presided at a cab
met meeting tonight-the first
since his return-and it was I'M
derstood that the British prime
minister had made full report
of the Quebec-Washington war con-
ferences and possibly discussed
his coming appearance before
Parliament.
The general expectation is that
Churchill will take the floor al
most as soon as Parliament recon-
venes and will describe the pro-
gress of the war and the forthcom-
ing tripartite conference as well
as answer questions widely rails
ed in the British press on the
lapse of time between the capture
of Sicily and the invasion of the
mainland.
The return of Churchill will prob
ably act to speed British-Soviet-
American conference. Although a
formal announcement has been
withheld, speculation has grown
here that the meeting will take
place next month, possibly in Mos

I'm any stable Europe the great
est of the Slav peoples, whose

of some of its propagandists is a

ditions will silence any demand

Il DUCE-HITLER
PROBLEM ARISES
How Allies Can Grab And
Hold Pair After War
Ends, Is Query

WASHINGTON, Sept. co. R -
London reports that Prime Min

questioning over Mussolini's ap-
parent rescue by the Germans,
have raised the question as to
nowo the Allies can grab and hold
on to II Duce and Hitler when
Germany surrenders.
Details of the Allied negotiations
with General Pietro Badoglio for
the Italian armistice-at time
when Mussolini was an Italian
prisoner-are not known, but it is
possible That surrender of the Gre
ator of Fascism was not demand
ed as prerequisite to a cessation
of hostiities.
Mussolini's escape may prove
nothing more than a nuisance and
minor annoyance but already he
has attempted-in the broadcast
which Germans said he made Sat-
urday-to spread revolution a n d
even perhaps assassination in his
homeland.
That broadcast called for elimi-
nation of the 'traitors' who went
over to the new Italian govern
ment and of &c the plutocracy." Ba-
doglio and King Victory Emmanu-
els House of Savoy were both
termed traitorous.

GERMANS RUSHING
AID TO BALKANS
Over 100000 Troops Re-
ported On Way To

LONDON, Sept. 20 R The
Germans were reported tonight to
be rushing 80 divisions, aggregat-
ing more than 25o,000 men to
Italy and the Balkans to protect
themselves from the growing Al
lied menace to t II cir southern
flank.
Twenty-four OF the divisions were
said to have been dispatched to
the Balkans and the others to Italy.
These figures came from an IN
formant who is in clandestine com

Germany. While TIL ey are, OF

firmation, they stood up W e
against the background OF known
facts.
The informant said II of the di-
visions were drawn from Hitler

sian front, while three were taken
from Norway and one from Hol'
land. The other IA were said tc
be of sub-standard quality, made
up of youngsters, convalescents'
and middle-aged men drawn from
the interior of Germany.
This would bring the German
troop strength in Italy to about

CITY FACES TASK
in BOND SELLING
About $250,O0O Per Day
Must Be Invested To
Achieve Goal

Wilmingtonians must invest two
and a half million dollars, approx
imately s250,ooO a day until the

Fer the benet of couples in
terested in heavier bond invest
ments, it was explained Monday
that although there is $1,000 linn
itation on the purchase of Series E
bonds for individuals, the limit is
$40, 900 for co-owners. Thus, a man
and his wife may buy $4,000
worth of bonds if the names of
both are inscribed on the bonds.
Mrs. Bereniece Stellings, chair
man of the women's division of
the drive, sale h inclement
weather did not prevent b S k
bond sales Monday at the newly
opened booth in the postoffice, the

Mrs. Stellings has requested that
all zone chairmen participating in

campaign report their sales i'm
mediately to block leaders, in or
der that an estimate of the results
from the door-to-door canvassing
may be made.

promised the drive by the Junior
Chamber of Commerce has been
erected on the post office lawn,
and will be used to chart progress
