ITALIANS HATE KING

Doubtless Eisenhower also has IN
the back of his mind the dlsap-
pointing experience he had with
Italian troops. Allied leaders had
hoped that, once their working
agreement with Marshal Badoglio
was arranged, they would get real
support from the italian Army. 1t
was hoped that Italian troops would
turn round and fight the Nazis.
However, this didn't happen.
One reason it didn't happen was
the fact that the Italian Army had
no new leadership, nothing new to
fight for. Badoglio was the great
friend of the King and, for long
time, he had taken orders from

Navy Day Parade

The news from the Pacific and
the news from our own little sec
tion of the home front in the Com
munity War Fund Campaign are
enough to warrant a whole string
of Navy Day celebrations. While
the first bulletins indicating a great
Navy victory in Philippine waters
were coming in yesterday afternoon,
War Fund workers were being told
of how the Navy Department here
had exceeded its large quota by
nearly fifty per cent, raising the
money in one lump and finishing
its drive before many others have
really gotten started. If respect and
gratitude for our Navy have any,
thing to do with it, tomorrow's for
NAL observance of Navy Day in
Washington should exceed any,
thing of it's kind in the past in timely
significance. The Navy is doing
its part to stimulate public interest
by helping in the arrangements for
a parade, the first Navy Day parade
since long before the war and one
OF the few military parades that
have been held here since the war
began. Washingtonians should re-
spond by lining the parade route
along Constitution avenue and
demonstrating by their applause
something of the enthusiasm that
all of us feel. They will be well
repaid. Many Of the marching men
will be those who paved the way
in the Pacific theater for the deci-
sive battles now taking place. It
should be sight worth seeing, and

adequate opportunity to prove her
powers. From Shakespeare she had
scripts as various as Cordelia and
Hamlet. Her Phedre, Sappho, Dona
Sol, Camille, Cleopatra, Gismonda
and La Samaritaine were classic in
their qualities. She capped her
triumphs with L'Aiglon and Jeanne
dare. Meanwhile, she painted, mod
eled in clay and wrote as hobbies.
The First World War cost her many
sorrows, but she was valiant about
it, playing night and after night in
the trenches within sound of Ger
man guns. Death was a release in
the end, March 26, 1923. But she
was peerless even at the last, and
that she did not overestimate her
self is evident from the fact that
she was mourned as Hugo and Pas
teur were. Her monument is her
example.

The Political Mill
By Gould Lincoln

Democrats opposed to a fourth-term
election for Mr.. Roosevelt have set up
an organization of their oWn-in which
former Mayor Howard Jackson of Bal
timore is playing a part. Many promi-
nent Democrats in this organization,
it is true, were supporters of Mr.. Willkie
in 1910. But, it is pointed out, the
number of these anti-Roosevelt Demo-
Gratis has materially increased in the
last four years. Judge Walter J. Mitch
ell, for years Democratic leader in
Charles County, has announced his sup
port of Dewey.
The anti-Roosevelt revolt on the
Eastern Shore is considerable. Ale
gany County is said to be swinging
Republican. The coal miners in this
district are inclined to follow John L.
Lewis in the fight against Roosevelt.
=
Democrats are counting on Baltimore
City for a large share of their vote
They are counting, too, on the votes of
the workers in war plants, including the
shipyards. The CIO put on a drive for
registration of these workers. They met,
however the obstacle of the Maryland
law which requires declaration Of
ulteIlIiOH Oh becoming ClJL6Il Oh MARY -
land, which must be made year before
the declarer may become a registered
voter.
Senator Millard Tydings, Democrat,
whom President Roosevelt sought unsuc-
cessfully to purge" as an anti-New
Dealer in 1898. is a candidate for re-
election, running against Blanchard
Randall, jr., of Baltimore. Mr.. Tydings
has announced he will not oppose"
President Roosevelt's reelection. He
has been making speeches, as he says,
on behalf of the Democratic party, in
which Mr.. Roosevelt's name has cropped
up occasionally.
Some of the pro-Tydings voters, who
do not like Mr.. Roosevelt, have been
irritated. Nevertheless Mr.. Tydings is
expected to win, no matter who gets
the States ELECTORAL votes for Presi-
dent. There are those who insist he
will run ahead of Mr.. Roosevelt.
The bitterness which has developed
in this presidential campaign is ex-
emplifled in Maryland. A border-ine
State, although traditionally Democratic,
the swing of the political pendulum here
may well give the answer to the national
election. If Mr.. Roosevelt should lose
Maryland, or have his plurality reduced
to mere few thousands, his chances
for reelection would be small, If not
wiped out.

Pacific Fleet Action

in the Sulu Sea, southwest of Negros. A
fair guess as to its position would put it
about $50 miles from the southern end
of Leyte. 1t was attacked by aircraft
and both its battleships were damaged,
while the light forces were severely
strafed"
Since the Japanese communiQue ad-
mits that two japanese cruisers and one
destroyer were sunk, it is a fair guess
that the cruiser of Task Force No.
which we reported as damaged and the
single cruiser and one of the destroyers
Of Task Force No. are the ships which
the japanese acknowledge to have lost.
Finally, late on Monday afternoon
Task Force No. was found southeast
of Formosa, approaching from Japanese
home waters The composition of this
force is not stated, but it must have
included carriers, as none were included
in the other two task forces and Ad-
miral Nimitz says that one large Jap
two others damaged.

What are the japanese trying to do?
Their concentric movement by three
task forces may we'll have originated
liOil IllCiI ulSpcl Sdl VI lIlclT llecG uI1ltS
at the beginning of the operation. No
doubt most of their carriers which sur
vived the Battle of the Eastern Philip
pines in June had to go home to renew
their complement of aircraft, since in
that battle almost all the Japanese
carrier-based aircraft were lost New
carriers just completed may have been
added to the Imperial Fleet. Thus the
carriers were largely at home, while
strong forces of battleships and cruisers
remained in the South China Sea, OBJ
serving the Philippine area, though it
is probable that some battleships and
cruisers are with the carrier force, too.
The japanese, making the best of
faulty original disposition which was
forced upon them by circumstances,
may have calculated that we would
concentrate our efforts against one or
perhaps two of their task forces, leaving
the remaining one to slip through and
get home its attack against the mass of
shipping off Leyte.
These are just guesses, but they seem
to fit the facts as we know them now.
For the rest we must wait for more news.

Northern Norwuy

From that remote war theater
known as the Arctic Front comes
news with important political as well
as military implications. Both Mos
COW and Berlin report that the Ger
mans in northernmost Finland have
been elected into neighboring Nor
way by Russian troops with Finnish
aid, and that the Russian advance
continues toward Norwegian soil,
with intimations that they are al
ready there. The immediate objec-
tive is the port-town of Kirkeness
which lies near the head of the Va
ranger ford, the easternmost of
those many saltwater rivers en-
sconced between towering noun
tains which characterize Norway's
rugged coast. The strategic import
ance of those inlets is that they are
ice-free throughout the year, due to
the presence of an arm of the Gulf
Stream which washes the entire
Norwegian shorelines and reaches
oAooAho 3NOl e2l SdpC ll1UO Vic
as far as the Finnish port of PetSa-
mo, just ceded to Russia under the
recent armistice terms, and also to
the Russian port of Murmansk, the
Arctic gateway to Allied supplies
during the entire war.
Kirkeness was formerly a base for
German U-boats, light naval craft
and airplanes in their destructive
raids on the Allied sea lane to Muir
mansk. Today, German necessities
at home have whitfield down its sea
and air power in Norway to negligi-
BILE proportions. Thus there is little
to prevent an invasion of Northern
Norway by either Russian or Brit
ish forces. 1t is probable that large
German garrisons remain in this
ncrthernmost province, known as
Finmark, but they cannot be sup
piled overland, since Norway shrinks
to a slender wasp-waist at the Mar
vik ford, which reaches through
the coastal mountains almost to the
