CIANO'S DIARY
Jan. 1-Feb. 8. 1912.

Allied prisoner, bought his fabulous
jewels for next to nothing in con-
quered Holland and carried with
him when he Travelled container
filled with diamonds which he sort
ed and counted and played with
when he was depressed, according
to the diary of Count Ciano, Mus
solini's son-in-law.
Internal affairs and relations
with the Germans were almost
equally plaguing to II Duce as 1912
began, the account shows The Fas-
cist party organization was shot
through with charges of graft.
Secret service operators heard
one of Nazi Marshal Kesselring' S
aides describe the Italins as ma
caroni" in a tapped telephone con-
versation with Berlin, to II Duce's
great discomfort. German soldiers
invaded Italian homes as they
would those of a conquered coun-
try.
Ciano wrote:

Why Attack
Made, Kiska

SEATTLE, Nov 8 Rear Adm
Ralph Wood, Commandant of the
18th Naval District, told. a travelling
group of correspondents Kiska was
chosen for invasion by the japanese
because of a red triangle on To-
cent map, Robert Mahaffay, Seattle
Times staff man, wrote from Kodiak
today.
Admiral Wood, former Command
ant at the Sand Point Naval Air
Station here, also bluntly warned
the United States should not re-
linguish any advance bases, the
paper said. He also suggested service
men be given extended furloughs
which would fit them mentally for
a temporary return to military
duties.
Discussing why the Japanese Sc
lected Kiska with virtually all the
Aleutians at their disposal while
Americans later on rejected it as a
base, he said:
"On maps then published and
available to everyone, Kiska was
marked with a red triangle which
denoted military base. When The
Japanese were beaten off at Dutch
Harbor, they retreated to what they
considered the second most adj
vantageous base, Kiska. Unfortun-
ately for them, further examination
has proven that other areas were
much more desirable"
The Navy has established primary
bases at Adak and Attu while an
Army base of substantial proportions
capable of accommodating B-29s
has been built on Shemya Island,
between Attu and Kiska, he dis
closed.

of soldiers who were prisoners of the

The deadlock was not broken until added pressure by American and Canadian units brought up from the west and cen- ter forced the Germans to withdraw. The British entered Catania on Aug. and the entire Etna line col lapsed the next day when the Amer jeans fought their way into strategic Troina, just to the northwest. The Germans, leaving a strong delaying force 9 miles below Messina, began an immediate evacuation. On Aug IT, Allied armor rumbled into Mes sina and the conquest of Sicily was complete, after 33 days.
 For nearly two weeks the Allied armies regrouped and gathered themselves for the leap to the mainland. The leap was made on Sept 3, the fourth anniversary Of the Allied war declaration That morning, spearheads of the 9th army stormed across the three-mile strait, quickly established 10-mile beach, head at Reggie Callabria and struck inland after the Germans.
 Five days later, Gen. Dwight Eisenhower informed the world that bankrupt, beaten Italy had surren- dered even as the British were land ing. While the Nazis were recover ing from this body blow, another sea-borne force struck a quarter of l the way up Italy. It. Gen. Mark w. 1 Clark's neWly-constituted 5th army sWarmed ashore on a 27-mile cres- ent beach at Salerno below Naples.
 Germans Were Ready
 This was to be the hardest land ing of them all. The Germans were there, tough and ready. From high ground commanding the shelving beaches plunging gun and mortar fire raked the landing forces. For five days of hellish fighting, it was touch and go whether foothold could be established at all Time and again furious German thrusts almost hurled the Allies back into the sea.

FOR FAVORED
 U. 5, JOINING LEAGUE IN 1924

Ann Arbor, Mich, May 24-(UP) The late President Roosevelt back in 1924 advocated Americas en- trance into the League of Nations and the World Court, according to a personal letter written to Mont clair, N. J., doctor.
 The letter has just been added to the Franklin D. Roosevelt Col lection of the Clements Library here and was the gift of rare book collector in New York City, who had the letter classified under, Franklin D. Roosevelt-LaWyer."
 There were no stenographer'S initials on the letter and one sim pie word was misspelled. It is be- lieved that Roosevelt typed the let ter himself, which was written from his New York City town house un- der a Hyde Park letterhead.
 MT. Roosevelt wrote, "1n regard to the World Court. I entirely agree with you that we should join at once, regardless of the League of Nations. There is absolutely no valid reason for the United tSates to hold aloof from the only recog- nized international agency for the settlement of disputes between na- tions. By joining the World Court we are committed to nothing else.
 Of course" MT. Roosevelt con- tinued, T wish to go a great deal further. The League of Nations has accomplished great things for humanity during these four years. Problems affecting social welfare, international health, boundary dis putes and host of other matters have been successfully dealt with. No nation now in the League of Na- tions has lost or been threatened with the loss of their complete in- ternal and external sovereignty. However, I would have no objection to our joining with such reserva- tions as would assure the most timid that American rights would be in every day guarded"
 At the time he wrote the letter, Roosevelt was not holding public of- flee, but was practicing law in New York.
