The Waterbury Democrat., 1944-05-27

All C1leoc uupOI IduC pre-IIlVd" sion landings occurred around Spalato (Split), the old town of the Roman Emperor Diocletian. Spalato is strategic stronghold on the Adriatic. Connected by rail with the hinterland, Spalato is linked with the best military highways, some built by the Roman Caesars and some by Ma poleon. Spalato is the finest and largest port on the Adriatic. Heavy battleships and tropships can easily and safely anchor there. For this reason the Nazis have fortified Spalato and use it as a base. The former Dalmatian port of Cattaro was the base for the Austrian Hungarian navy and later was used by the Yugoslavs for the same purpose.
 Without being a prophet. but knowing the Dalmatian people. ] can predict that an invasion through the Dalmatian coast would be less costly than at any other point in Fortress Europa. This will be true not only because Tito, as he claims. has 100000 fighting guerrillas, nor because Mikhailovich has 300O0O veteran soldiers and, as he said, on the day of invasion can raise another 300, ,000-it will be true because American-spirited Dalmatian cour- age will fight the Nazis on the very day of the Allied landing.
 The explanation is somewhat surprising. After the big Philoxera invasion. which ruined the fiourishing Dalmatian vineyards, the owners and farmers, becoming poor overnight. were forced to immigrate and seek their livelihood outside the country. By the thou sands they migrated. mostly to America. After 10 or 20 years. many thousands returned with a little money and started anew. Those American-Da Dalmat tians brought not only money, DuC tne Spirit, the love of freedom and the democratic training of America.
 I lived among these people for several years. I know them well. These people. descendants of the famous Illyrians. the aborigines of Dalmatia. are strong. stubborn fighters. They will make. as they already have. a hell out of beautiful Dalmatia for the Germans.
 Their fishermen have carried on a daring work with little barges. smuggling many thousands of wounded and other refugees from the Daimatian coast to the Italian port of Bari. They know the Adriatic as their own hands. This is why I believe the Dai- matian people. the town folk of spaiato, Dubroynik and sibenice will give invaluable aid to us. These people are the yet unknown military factor which will give q powerful swing to the Balkan In- yasion.
