Aware Of Danger.
The rising tempo of the fighting
indicated that the Germans were
fully aware Of the danger of a con-
unued advance by Gen. Montgom-
ery's 9th Army.
The 9th ArmyS advance already
was menacing Pescara. a coastal
town so miles northwest of Temoli
and the terminus of the main lat
eral highway across the peninsula
to Rome
The pumping Of 47-inch shells
by the two destroyers. Jervis and
OHa, into the coastal railway above
Iermoll demonstrated that German
efforts to mass and supply a major
force of tanks for their first big
battle in the Adriatic sector would
be complicated by the vulnerability
Of their communication lines.

through the Apennines, also were
heavily blasted by Allied fighter
bombers which were credited with
destroying 80 vehicles and damag-

A Tactical Air Force again gave
strong support to land forces in the
Volturno battle area, bombing inter-
sections and overpasses in the Mig

comotlveS and left IA coaches burn

In all this action, the Allies ac-

American Casualties
In 5th Army Total
8,307, 5timson Says
BY NELSON SHEPARD.

American forces in the 5th
Army have suffered 1907 cas-
ualtleS in the four weeks since
the initial Salerno landing, in
Guiding 5l1 killed. 5,428 wounded
and 1858 missing, Secretary of
War Stimson reported today.
Health conditions in Naples are
relatively satisfactory, especially in
view of the fact that the Germans
destroyed the WaterworkS. causing
civilian rationing OF water, he said.
preliminary survey indicates
that the destruction wrought bv
the Germans was not as great as
feared. Mr.. Stimson expressed con-
tdence that the harbor. where ships
were sunk and port facilities de-
stroyed, would be ready for use in
a short time.
Il understand" Mr.. Stlmson told
his press conference. that this is
somewhat greater than the total
casualties suffered by the British
componentS of the 5th Army"
When the Salerno invasion start
ed. he said the 5th Army was COM
posed almost equally of American
and British troops. but subsequent
reinforcements have been largely
American.
Food Reaches Naples.
Food supplies now are reaching
Naples in large amounts. Mr.. Slim
son said, and will avert anv Starya-
ton among the civilian population
The feeding OF 100000 civilians puts
a burden on the 5th Army. but in
expectation that the retreating Ger
mans would take all food supplies
he said, preparation had been made
beforehand.
Nazi Resistance Stiffens.
Mr.. StimSon said future inten-
tons Of the Germans in Italv are
not clear but they ARE expected to
fight series of delaying actions"
The NaziS are pouring reinforce
ments into the fighting. he said. and
now probably have 20 to Is combat
divisions in italy.
German resistance is stifening in
the east, where the rapid advance of
the British 9th Army threatens TO
outfank the enemy" MI. Stimson
said.
The operations Of 1t. Gen Mark
Clark's 5th Army have not been
"spectacular" on the whole, he
pointed out, but they have been ex-
ceedingly difficult because of the
mountainous terrain which afford
the Germans excellent deien-ive op-
portunities.
