Enraged Germans Murder
Entire Italian Village

NEW YORK, Oct. 60

said that enraged German

Alpine village of Boves, near
the French border, was level

Doves in quest of food. The
patriots easily overwhelmed

village and carried four of the
Germans away to the noun

The German commando rcall-
ed in the local priest and told
him he would give the popu-
lace two hours to go into the
mountains and bring back the
four German soldiers.
The people of Boves tried to
make contact with the guerril-
las, but the time was too short.
The deadline expired and the
German commander ordered a
flame-throwing deta chment in
to action. Every house in the
village was set afire, and two
hours later Boves was smold-

the war is over "the fighting Amer

Mr.. Bard told the ninth annual

Workers, which claims 100000 mem
bers, that unless labor and manage
ment reach friendly understanding
and mutual acceptance of RESPONSE
bility, this great and productive

stress of war will rot and rust away"

whose temper has been worn very
thin, indeed, by too much sacrifice
and too much sadness" and war vet
Grams will be determined to see no
more and hear no more Of war or
unnecessary domestic controversy.
Both labor and management will
have to institute changes In the in

said. He declared unions must VOL
unfairly recognize that the quickest
way to forfeit its rights is the wan
