The government had decided. he

clause and resume debate on the
education bill as the first order Of
business Of the next sitting day.
This act Of deletion will be re-
garded as a vote of confidence in
the present administration and If
the government does not secure an
adequate majority, it will entail the

The usual consequences" Of a
failure to secure vote of conf

the entire government.
If the House accepted the dele

move to reinstated the original
clause without amendment during
the report stage and again treat its
passage throughout as a matter Of
confidence in the government,
Churchill said.
Immediately after Churchill's an

Abandonment

Abandonment of the two salients
appeared to signal the end Of the
latest Allied offensive against Cas-
Sino, headquarters Spokesmen said
fighting in and around the town
yesterday was limited mostly to ar
tillery exchanges, with the 5th army
gunners pounding necessarily at the
ContiAental Hotel, where German
tanks and trench mortars were en-
placed.
One enemy patrol left the hotel
and tried to move eastward toward
Allied-held Castle Hill, but the at
tack was beaten off.
Fighting on the western flank
of the 5th Army line in the lower
Garigliano valley and on the An
zio beachhead also was confined for
the most part to patrol clashes and
artillery duels. One German thrust
on the beachhead was repulsed.
No major activity was reported
from the British 9Th Army's front
in eastern italy.
FOrtreSSeS
American flying fortresses and
LiberatorS struck in force at the
Verona and Mestre railway yards in
northern italy yesterday and ran
into more than 100 enemy fighters.
Twelve NaZi planes were shot down
by the bomber gunners and their
Thunderbolt and Lightning fighter
escorts.
AT Wellingtons and American
LberatorS followed UP with night
assault on the Milan railroad yards,
causing fires and explosions.
Other Allied planes raked enemy

the attack, said two strong forfna-
tons TO American bombers flew over
central, northwest and west parts of
the Reich.
Germans defenders attacked the
big raiding fleets from the time they
crossed tire frontier, and shot down
several planes, the official DNB
News Agency reported. 1t said the
aerial struggle was particularly in
tense over the Teutoburgian forest
in the Muenster Bielefeld Osna-
brueck area of northwest Germany.
The eported daylight assault on
Germany, the first since last Friday,
was the 18th this month.
The United States strategic air
forces for the last three days have
concentrated on German air bases
in France. The last daylight bomb1
ardment of Germany was carried
out last Friday, when Schweinfurt
and Frankfurt were the targets.
Despite the consistent failure Of
the German air force to challenge
Allied fleets over the continent, air
minister Sir Archibald Sinclair
warned in Commons today that the
Nazis still have a formidable fight
er force and many hard battles lie
ahead"
American flying fortresses struck
another blow at the Luftwaffe yes

dromes in France. nable to draw

gress adopts which will assure that
those unfit for military service re-
place in essential occupations those

Patterson said 1t was unfortun-
ate that young men in agriculture
and industry had been given occu-
pational deferments to the extent
that "disproportionate number OF
men of an older age group" had to
be taken into the army.
Should congress decide to adopt
a policy of inducing ATS into the
service, he said he wanted 1t under

affect the regular size Of the armed
forces for combat or the medical
and physical standards Of the arm

son said "the Selective service syS-
tenn has failed for months to meet
the requirements of the Army and
Navy"
Committee Chairman John M.
Costello. D., Calf, said congress
would find a way to force AIS into
the war effort If the armed forces
did not. McNutt said yesterday that
some $4,000 4-FS are not in war
work, and President Roosevelt few
hours later told his news conference
that others besides ATS should con-
tribute to victory.
If they don't do this themselves,
the President added, somebody will
have to do it for them.
Told that McNutt had specifically
mentioned use of ATS in harvest
ing, Mr.. Roosevelt said other man
power groups would be used in har-
vesting, among them high school
boys and girls. Yes, he added, and
newSpapermen.
Adding his voice to the AT prob
lem, Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey,
director Of Selective Service, told

heavy artillery and mortar fire. But
these dangers were sometimes Sec
ondary to hunger and thirst. The
men had gone out with canteens
only half-filled and only a few bis
cults in their pockets so as not to
weigh themselves down on the rocky
slopes.
A porter party reached them on
the night of the 18th despite heavy
losses and the battle-weary men
were death out two biscuits and
one-half of a sardine each.
Water was the worst problem.
Water patrols were sent out at ter
rible risk into the enemy controlled
mountainside. Two hundred gall
Ions were found in bomb crater
and this was drunk down to the
muddy bottom despite the fact the
Germans mortared the area night
and day.
One party discovered well and
this was quickly drunk down until
a dead mule was discovered at the
bottom. The men. thereafter, went
thirsty except for the small cannis-
tiers dropped by American fighter
planes.
Such drops never are expected to
land more than 80 per cent Of the
packages on the target, but the
Americans put half their rations in
side the Allied position, despite
tricky air currents. Some were
dropped by parachute and others in
rGpier mache belly gasoline tanks,
which would burst when they hit,
scattering boxes of *" ration over
the mountainside.
The troops would groan when the
yellow or orange parachutes would
fall inside the German lines but
would cheer a bullseye. 1t took
stern discipline to keep the men in
their foXholes because the Germans
sprayed machinegun and mortar
fire around areas where supplies
landed.
After dark the soldiers would
play a desperate game of easter
egg hunt" trying to gather up as
much Of the supplies as possible.
The Germans sent parties out to
play the game, too.
All this time, the only contact the
men had with the main Allied
forces was by battalion radio. oper-
ated by Capt. Jerald Evans, Edin-
burgh, Scotland. He nursed his
batteries along by turning 1t on only
at three-hour intervals or to catch
occasional BIC news.
The men told me they never heard
the German broadcasts announcing
they were being annihilated.

starved Indian and New
Zealand infantrymen who had held
out on Hangman's Hill and the
nearby hill 2O2 for 10 days and
nights, under constant fire from
enemy units all around them,
stumbled back into the main Allied
lines Monday night under cover of a
heavy barrage that diverted the
Germans attention to the eastern
end Of Casino.
Isolated Troops
Isolated and supplied only by air,
the two detachmentS chung to their
exposed positions high up on the
mountain slopes as long as there
was a chance of the NaziS being
ousted from Casino. When that
hope disappeared and the battle Of
Casino settled down into smuggling
match between the opposing artil-
lery, the Indians and New Zealand
ers were ordered to withdraw.
United Press War Correspondent
James E. Roper reported in a front
line dispatch that the troops slipped
out of the German net without the
loss OF a single man, through a
cleverly -coordinated ruse.
While the exhausted troops CROP
ed their way down the mountain
Just west of Casino, Allied gunnerS
in the surrounding hills laid down q
thunderous artillery barragc on the
eastern side of the town, leading the
Germans to expect an infantry at
tack from that direction.
German artillery fired flares over
the area and raked the eastern ap-
proaches of Casino with machine
gun fire.
Meanwhile the marooned Allied
troops moved quitely down the
mountain on the opposite side OF
the town, passing within 200 yards
of the Germans-who were looking
the other way and unable to hear
them because Of the bursting shells.
Survivors
Survivors Of the two detachments
described their stay on the noun
tain as a nightmare OF hunger,
thirst and exhaustion, made more
distressing by enemy sniperS and
the raking fire Of Nazi machine
guns and mortars emplaced above
and below their positions.
Hangman's Hill and Hill 202 are
on hairpin bends in the twisting
road running between Casino annd
the Benedictine Monastery on the
crest of Mount Casino. The for
mer height, held by Indian Gurk-
has, Is only 200 yards as the eagle
flies from the Nazi defenSeS around
the monastery, but about two and
one-quarter miles away by road. Hill
202 is aborItt vice as far from the
Germafl-held monastery.
The Gurfkhas stormed up the
mountain side during the night OF
March Is, after the Allied bomb
ing and Smelling attack on Casino.
and drove to within striking dis
lance Of the monastery before the
German gunfire pinned them down

The first unit to reach Hang

furious German coVmter-attack.
but it held on until the morning
Of March II, when Reinforcement

Throughout the rest Of the siege
