CiUil War, BloodshedMay Mar Italy's Restoration People Reported Opposed to Monarchy - Sus- picious of Great Brtain's Policies - Evidence Shows King Emmanuel Was Hostile to
 Allies Writes Frank Gervasi,
 Golfers Editor

There will be civil war in Italy if any attempt is made to force the Italians to accept a monarchy, the Great Britain and by default, the United States will be re- sponsible for it, just as British in- reference in Greece led to the bloody civil war there.
 So predicts Frank Gervasi, Medi- terranean editor of Golfers, in a signed article in the current issue of the national magazine. Just prior to the outbreak of the Greek Civil War, in another signed Col Hers article, Gervasi predicted "bloodshed" if any attempt were made to impose a military dicta- torship" in Greece.
 Events in Greece
 Events in Greece didn't raise the left-wing parties hopes for British or Allied help in turning out the old guard Gin Italy)," Gervasi de- clares. If an attempt is made to force the Italians to accept a mon- archy, however, there will be rev. olution, as there was in Greece. It will wait until the occupying forces eventually go home, but not too long beyond the time of their with draWal."
 'The Italians know that the Brit ish support the monarchy" Gervasi charges. This is obvious to them from the fact that when Winston Churchill was here, he visited Prince Humbert, the lieutenant king and that when Churchill received Bonomi, it wasn't alone but in the company of Field Marshal Pietro Badoglio, faithful servant of his king and of Fascism."
 Tn "jockeying for power" with Russia in the Mediterranean, Ger vasi charges that the British - at least conservative Winston Churchill - fear communism in tho Mediterranean and are inviting the growing Italian charge that they do not want to destroy Fascism" by keeping anti-Fascist left-wing leaders from coming into power.
 After the British forbade the ap pointment of Count Carlo Sforza, the independent anti-Fascist leader. as foreign minister, Gervasi de. clares that the Italians who had hailed the Allies as liberators' saw them suddenly as 'conquerorS'." He gives this as one example of why the Italians are slowly losing their faith in democracy, which meant to them the right to have 8 government of their own choice"
 King Incriminated
 The Allies now have official evil dence, running into volumes. Ger. vasi reports, that proves beyond doubt that King Victor Emmanuel, Badoglio and Prince Humbert. in the early part of the war consid. cred democrats at heart" com. promised themselves "inextricably with the supreme crime of Fascism the war against England, France and America"
 Italians see support for these guilty men as support for Fascism," Gervasi reports. 'rhe most disil- lusioning fact for Italians, is the presence of Fascists everywhere - Tn the ministries, the Army, Navy. the civil service. in what's left O; banking and industry and in the l policA." He also charges that Prince

Maneuvering over ground that foot soldiers find almost impas- sable, reconnitering in the deep snow, and putting their special training to all kinds of ingenious uses, the first American ski patrol to see service overseas is in action on the Western Front.

 In sketching the march of events which led to the outbreak of the Greek Civi. War, Gervasi reveals that Britain's General Scobie, after having given the FAM permission to parade in Athens on Dec 5, 1944. cancelled their permit overnight" :" As result, he says, thousands of FAM members had not heard of the revocation of the permit and be- gan to parade.
 "Old Stuff"
 "A cordon of police met the first marchers with the butt ends of their rifles" Gervasi says. Suddenly, at 10:45 a. m. rifles cracked and tom- my guns spurted. A platoon of police were firing into the crowd" The police, long under German orders, had killed FAM and ELIAS men be- fore. Gervasi says. Tt was old stuff to them"

CAB Launches Inquiry
Into Plane Crash in
Georgetown Channel

The Civil Aeronautics Board to-
day was investigating the crash of
privately owned Lockheed Lode
star into the Georgetown Channel.
Three men on the plane were
reported shaken up and thor
oughly soaked, but not seriously in
1ured in the crash which occurred
soon after the plane took off from
National Airport yesterday afternoon
on a routine fight.
Rescued from the channel were
Maj. Levi Dice, 43, of 4703 Twenty
seventh street, Mt. Rainier, Md;
c. V. Hopkins, 80, Dundalk, Md, and
George Bevine, 35, 2501 Queens
Chapel road, Mt. Rainier, Md.
An Army spokesman explained
Maj. Dice was not on the plane in
an Army capacity, but was acting
as check pilot for his friend, Mr.
Bevins. Mr.. Hopkins, who was
aboard as mechanic, was admitted
to Emergency Hospital for teatment.
The men on the plane, owned by
the BendiX Radio Corp, said the
plane took off towards the north
east and soon had trouble with
the landing gear. The plane dipped
a motor spluttered and the pilot de-
cided to turn back.
Witnesses said the pilot tried to
circle, but was unable to gain alti-
tude. The dipping left wing hit the
water and the plane dived in, strik-
ing the channel near Smoot Sand

AS the plane started to sink
rapidly, the men were hauled into
the barge and within five minutes a
Naval Air Station crash boat had
taken them off the barge and headed
for shore.
Harbor police and crash boats
from the National Airport both re-
sponded to the call. Police met the
Naval Air Station boat and removed
the men to the Army dispensary at
Gravelly Point.
Within a few minutes after the
men were rescued, the plane had
settled into the water until only one
wing and the tail of the ship showed.

 JESS FALLS

JESS II f1ALAO
 Tco often of late we've been obliged to say goodby to top-rank- ing local servicemen. Yes, too many of the leaders among our fellows, especially among well-liked per- sonal friends, have been getting transferred in recent weeks.
 Now it seems probable we'll soon be losing one of the most promi- nent of all of them. For Jess Fallis, Coast Guardsman from Indian apolis Indiana, hasn't been well for some time, and we're afraid he is due to undergo a check-up in a hospital in the States. Everyone knows that the popular Jess is the leader of our servicemen's band and is an excellent man on the guitar But only the few of us comprising the USO staff appreciate fully how very helpful he has been at all times in the interest of our club.
 If he must go south, Jess will leave with the best wishes of all Of us for his early return to com plete good health-and eff he de- sires it, as we have reason to be- lieve he does) for his return tlso to further service in Juneau.
