importance than ever in their des-
perate last-minute calculations.
But whatever the reason or COM
bination of reasons may have been
at that time, there is today q much
more compelling factor behind the
presence in Italy of this powerful
enemy contingent. The simple
truth is that they cannot get out.
Must Flee Through Pass.
The air force here, which, Of
course, has complete command Of
the sky, is certain that If the Ger
mans attempt q sudden general
withdra wal across the fiat Po Valley
and out through the Brenner Pass
the result will be plain slaughter.
It seems likely that the Germans
are certain of it, too. Nor would
gradual withdrawal be any more
practicable. So great is the havoc
wrought by the Mediterrnean Allied
Air Force on essential rail commu-
nications that the Germans are at
present lucky to get one train q day
out through the Brenner Pass.
At that rate, without exposing
themselves to mass movement on
the highways, it would take . long
time to evacuate Italy. Therefore,
they are trapped here with q force
which becomes each day relatively
more and more important to them
as the power Of the. rest OF the
Wehrmacht decreases. 1t cannot,
of course. be computed with assur-
ance just what proportion OF the
Wehrmacht's strength is facing the
5th and 9th Armies today. but there
is reason to believe the figure may
pe as high as q quarter Of million.
The loss OF such . force and OF
Northern Italy simultaneously would
obviously be a serious blow to Ger
man morale and military potential
at this stage-might even strike the
coup de grace at their will to resist
The Allies here can not wait for
the two main fronts to do the job
on the theory that collapse up there
will result in surrender down here
There Is absolutely no assurance
that it will. In fact, il there is any
thing at all behind the idea that
the Wehrmacht may attempt to
prolong the war by withdrawing
into an easily defended heartland
fortress, what could be more logical
than that part of the fortress should
be in Italy, where the defense has
already succeeded SO Brilliantly
and that part Of the garrison should
be only two German armies still in
a state OF disciplined organization?
A battle therefore appears to be
inevitable, since the Germans can
not afford to get out and the Allies
can not afford to let them stay.

To Ease Threat on

NEW ORLEANS, April 4.--Army
engineers depended today on the
opening Of the huge Morganza flood
way to save the Lower Mississippi
Valley from . flood comparable to
the disastrous 1927 overflow.
They planned to open the Hood.
way soon for the first time. Fam.
lilies must move out Of the area.
Railroads and utility companies
have to make their arrangements.
The floodway covers $4,000 acres
through its 100-nile course. To open
it engineers viii blast out Smile
section Of the main river levee at
the spillway head. ~-.
Breaks Reported.
Along the Mississippi's tributaries
hundreds Of families were driven
from their homes a the streams
headed toward record crests.
United States engineers at Men,
phis reported several breaks today
in the Jackson bayou levee on the
White river in Arkansas, but said 1t
was to early to estimate the area
which would be flooded. One break
Of 200 feet was recorded. Other
breaks were expected since the
water was tapping at the tops Of
sandbags in Woodruff, Prairie and
Monroe Counties. %
In Natchitoches Parish, Louisiana,
90 families were driven from their
homes by backwaters from the Red
and Cane Rivers. More than 10000
acres were inundated.
Held BY Spiilway.
The Bonnet Carre spillway. which
was opened about two weeks ago
and now is operating at nearly full
force, continued to hold the Missis-
sippi comparatively steady at New
Orleans.
When the Morsanza fioodway Is
opened, the surplus water will take
course to the gulf $50 miles short
er than the usual river route via
Baton Rouge and New Orleans. The
water is to be carried through guide
levees on 4 strip miles wide and
20 miles long to the Atchafalaya,
then it will flow down the Atcha-
falaya basin through levees set IL
to 40 miles apart. -
