GLIDER TROOPS
 SAGA OF HER0ISM
Fight to Hold Position Till Only 30 of Original 100
 Left UnWOunded

With Glider Troops in Sicily, July 12. Delayed) (UP)-A force of less than 100 glider troops cap tured position in Sicily in a bloody nightlong battle Friday, de- tended it for IA hours and finally surrendered in mid-afternoon Sat urday when all but 30 of their number had been killed or wounded, and their ammunition exhausted.
 They escaped within an hour when a British reconnaissance unit opened fire on their guards.
 Roderick Macdonald, an Amer ican correspondent representing the combined United States press, said the position was taken initially by IA men, who then defended it with some 70 others. Italian opposition increased steadily through the night and into Saturday. finally forcing the little band to surrender.
 "The full story is one of the most magnificent episodes of this war, Macdonald said. When we sur rendered we had been under con- centrated fire from four-inch mor- tars and heavy machine guns for some hours.
 "For Is hours we had fought with almost no cover But we left a considerable number of enemy dead.
 Then, less than an hour after we were captured, the British unit opened up on our guards and we escaped"

CIRAUD ASKS ONLY
 ARMS FOR FRANCE
Seeks Help of U. s. Public to Provide Equipment for
 Coming Battle

New York, July IA. (UP) - General Henri Honore Giraud, con- mander of the French forces in North Africa, appealed to the Amer ican public today for modern arma- ment to equip his army flor the coming battle of France" Calling in the press after his Bas- tile Day visit to the Brooklyn Navy Yard, Giraud said he wanted to ex- press gratitude for the welcome he had received in America and added he had something I want you to put in your articles"
 T have one motto - Act, don t talk" I don't know how to make speeches, but I know something of action. I am here for action. I am here to ask you to present our problem to the American public in such way that we shall get action in arming the French forces that stand ready to nberate their home land
 T have no other mission. no other thought. have only this single purpose - to get the French army back into France, and that at the earliest possible moment"
 Results Satisfactory
 Giraud, who on visit to West Point yesterday, disclosed that French troops were participating in the Sicilian campaign said he con- sidered the results achieved in Sicily after only four days of fight ing most satisfactory in every way
 He said that his forces had gone into action in Tunisia with meager equipment and added:
 T decided to put the French army into action in Tunisia even though it was not properly armed because I felt it was my duty and the army $ duty. But now, for the coming battle of France, I feel I cannot engage my forces unless they are properly equipped with modern armament - tanks, aircraft, artil- lery and transport"
 The general said that Sicily to him was mot the most important thing T shall be really happy when we start talking about Marseilles and Lyons and the Savoy"
 The French commander was scheduled later today to greet lead CTS of the fighting French, the French Military Mission and the French Colony here at a private reception.
 In deference to War Department wishes 1t was said, Giraul will not participate in todays celebration of Bastile Day - the French Inde- pendence Day - by Frenchmen here, SO that his movements and utterances would not be susceptible to political connotation.
 He is expected to visit Chicago Detroit, Ottawa and Montreal after leaving New York. Giraud, told 1,200 West Point Cadets yesterday that the French Army would not only fight for the liberation of Flu rope, but would carry on until final victory in the Pacific.

MADCE BELLAMY
 SEEKS DIVORCE

Las Vegas, Nev., July 3-UP)- Madge Bellamy, glamour girl of si- lent films, sought divorce" and a share of $3,000,O0O in community property today from a millionaire lumberman to whom she was never married, but at whom she once fired three shots.
 Miss Bellamy, 39 and still attrac- tive, based her claims on wed ding-le marriage" and a peculiar ity of Nevada law which says that a ceremony is unnecessary if the parties agree to a marriage.
 The blonde, brown-eyed star of early western thrillers claimed that such an agreement existed between her and Albert Stanwood Murphy 53, wealthy California lumberman Murphy later married June Amy, attractive New York model. Miss Bellamy, who said Murphy broke her heart when he married Miss Amy, fired three near-misses at the millionaire as he strolled from the entrance of San Francis co.'s Pacific Union Club last Jan- uary.
 The former actress pleaded guilty to a concealed weapon charge and received a six-month suspended sentence after testifying that she fired the shots "just to scare the nsn I loved"

BUS SITUATION
 TO BE IMPROVED
Confidence Created Fol- lowing State Farley on
 General Situation

Some relief in the critical bus transportation situation in the state appeared likely following a confer- ence of state and federal officials in Hartford yesterday. The regional bureau of the ODT approved in- creases in the use of busses through out Connecticut, including Water bury, although no assurance was given, that additional busses would be allotted to the state.
 Meanwhile. Gov. Baldwin pre- pared to issue war order Mo- 4 to suspend the statute limiting stand ing room in buses to 40 per cent of seating capacity, while maintaining certain safety limitations. The State Public Utilities Commissor began a survey of all busses in the state to determine the standing room ca pacity of each, keeping in mind the safety factor. All busses may soon be equipped with bars near the driv- CTS seat to keep standing passengers away from the driver
 Homer A. Johnsc'', regional head of the ODT at Boston, revealed that a great portion of the 20 per cent mileage cut ordered for Connecti- cut bus companies the week ending May g has been restored.
 we considered it necessary for essential transportation in the state of Connecticut because the state is engaged in essential war prduction," MT. Johnson said.
 Increases granted by the ODT include:
 The -Win5ted route op- erated by the New England Trans portation Co. has had its mileage increased upwards from the 20 per cent cut ordered May p, MT. Johnson said the line was nto inn mediately available and that he did not know the rate of increase.
 The Connecticut Railway & Lighting lines at Bridgeport, Wa terbury, Ansonia and Derby were raised from "79 and a fraction per cent to 90 per cent"
 Increases for the Cooke St. line at Waterbury and the Northeast Transportation Co. at Waterbury are under consideration, MT. John son said.

URGE CONSUMERS
 TO USE POTATOES
Supply Reported Plentiful as Result of Recent Ship=
 ments From South

Following its policy of encourag- ing the consumption of commodities that are in seasonal abundance, the War Food Administration today urged consumers to increase their use of new early crop potatoes now being shipped in plentiful quantities from southern producing regions.
 Scarce during the spring and early summer months because of delayed harvesting, new potatoes are now abundant. Pro- duction in the southern areas is running about 35 per cent above last year and although the Armed Forces are requiring substantial quantities, the supply available for civilians is large.
 Early crop potatoes are not suit able for long storage, and a large portion of this years crop is par ticularly perishable because of the recent hot weather. If full advantage is to be taken of the large present supply, the potatoes must move in- to immediate consumption. Unless consumer demand is great enough to move them immediately through distributive channels, some early potatoes will go to waste.
 Victory gardeners also were ad- vised not to harvest their potatoes until they are fully mature, partic- ularly in view of the present abund- ance of commercial supplies.
 War Food Administration off, cials stressed that similar rapid changes in supply situations prob ably will continue to develop. It even may be possible, they pointed out, that potatoes again will be scarce later in the year, although this is not expected because of the great expanded acreage, Severe weather setbacks of labor short- ages might, of course, reduce total production.

UPS0N IN FAVOR
 OF PRIMARY PLAN
Former Chairman Believes in Direct Election; ln=
 terest Being Revived

Disagreement among members of the Waterbury Young Republican Club for notification of Republi- can party rule requiring candidates entering an intra-party contest to post fees of $25-per-district, has awakened interest in the state elec- tion laws commissions 1941 report recommending legislation which would have provided Connecticut municipalities with a direct primary system.
 Rules of the Democratic and the Republican parties of this city re- quest the payment of district fees by electors wishing to run for pub nc office m opposition to candidates tz.a-Ssed by town committees. At $25 per district the total filing fee amounts to $500 here.
 After Mondays convention, Re- publican delegates got together and admitted the necessity for such a rule but pointed out that it tech- nically deprives an elector of a fundamental right to run for public office by placing a price on the privilege.
 The election laws commission two years ago suggested the establish ment in Connecticut cities of a di- rect primary system which would nullify city conventions and make it possible for person or group of persons to oppose nominations pro- posed by the town committee virtu- ally without cost.
 Discussion at Mondays Given ton of the Republicans inspired in- terest showing that efforts may be- gin to have the direct primary plan adopted for Waterbury. J. Warren Upson is among the many delegates gl1o favor 1t.
