still was knotty. The United States
and Britain were understood to IA
vor the Wilson Line as the frontier,
leaving Italy about two-thirds of
the Istrian Peninsula. Australia,
New Zealand and South Africa-all
of which fought against Italy
urged frontier slightly west of the
present military demarcation line
which gives Yugoslavia all of Istria
but leaves Trieste to Italy. Yugo-
slavia demands territories even west
Of the 1914 Italian frontier.
Cairo dispatches said Arabs in
Tripolitania were opposed to return
ing that African colony to Italy or
dividing it among the leading Al
lied powers. The Tripolitanian
Arab leader, El Said Omar ell Fraly,
cabled the council that I'VE will
be satisfied only when we are given
our independence under supervision
of the Arab League"
At least one French newspaper
commented critically about Russia s
sudden display of interest in Italian
colonies.
The influential Paris newspaper
LIE Monde, which often reflects the
views of the French Foreign Office
said:
I'VE are now far from the prin-
ciples proclaimed at San Francisco -
Yugoslav Vice Premier Edward
Karelj presented case claiming all
Venezia Giulia and the territory
west of Italy's 1914 border, reliable
reports said. Italian Foreign Min
lister Alcide de Gasperi countered
that Italy wanted as frontier the
Wilson line-somewhat west of the
prewar border-Which would give
Yugoslavia Fiume and, De Casper
said, 80 per cent of Italys coal
mines and 1914 per cent of Italy's
mercury resources.
The border suggested by Presi-
dent Wilson and repeatedly favored
by the United States and Britain
runs about Is miles from the east
ern tip of the Istrian Peninsula
and almost due north. More than
half the peninsula and the port OF
Trieste would remain Italian.
Three British dominions, Austria
liza, New Zealand and South Africa
testifying in the matter last night
were understood to have emphasized
their share in the fighting against
the Italians and to have inclined
more to the Yugoslav point of view
than either the Americans or the
British. They were understood tt
have favored an ethnic frontier.
Russia's View Important.
The decision apparently rests OF
the Russian attitude, which MolotoV
declined to outline specifically yes.
terday.
Heightening speculation was Mol
otov's statement, with elaboration
that the Dodecanese Islands shoult
not be returned to Italy. This coul'
indicate that Russia might seek con
troll over the strategic islands.
The big question was: Has Russi
colonial or trusteeship ambitions?
A study of the map draws int
focus the power Russia would hav
should she gain control of Eritres
Tripolitania and the Dodecanes,
Bases at Tripoli, Rhodes and Mas

Some Schools Lag
As Paper Salvage

Mixed reactions marked the re-
opening of The Evening star-PTA
Salvage program today with the
Papertroopers at some Of the
schools indicating that they intend
to carry on as enthusiastically as
ever while at others there were evi-
dences the children are not aware
of the seriousness of the wastepaper
shortage.
The patriotic urge of war neces-
sity is missing now, but as industry
turns from war materiel to the pro-
duction of civilian goods, cartons
and other paperboard products are
In as great demand as ever.
The continued high price being
paid for wastepaper is indicative of
the demand for the material. 1t
offers the PTA groups an opportu-
nifty to acquire many needed articles
for their schools.

If they have to work "a hours a
day, and often they do, men and
officers do SO without any hesitation.
Without previous experience in op-
Grating ration dumps and ware
houses, they learned the hard way
by coming in on the heels of the
Seventh Army in the invasion of
Southern France.
When supply battalions of the
armored divisions were dropped in
the summer of 1943, the 616th was
activated at Camp Campbell, Ken
lucky, mostly from men of the goth
Armored Division supply battalion.
The company only had one month
of training before it was alerted for
overseas shipment They landed in
North Africa on Easter Sunday
morning in 1914 at Casablanca,
moved on to Oran and from there
to Naples.
From May to August 1914, the
company got some practical expert
ence in operating ON installations
near Aversa, supplying the Ameri-
can Fifth Army and outfitting the
American Seventh Army for the in
vasion of Southern France. Part
of the 616th landed on the Southern
France beaches a week after in
initial landings and set up ration
dumps at ST. Maxine, st. Tropez
and st. Raphael.
Wherever the 616th went in the
wake of the Seventh Army End
French forces, they set up ration
dumps amid rubble heaps, with lit
tie or no labor-saving machinery
and worked around the clock to see
that fighting men received every
thing they needed.
Then the outfit moved to its pres
ent location and the seemingly i'm
possible faced them again "While
the site had excellent possibilities.
one officer reported, "it had suffered
considerable damage from bombs,
artillery and demolitions.'"
All the roofs were severely dam
aged or completely missing; the
buildings were filed with debris
and smashed vehicles, and roads
and driveways were impossible.
Not a single building was suited
for storage and loaded trucks al
ready waited to be unloaded.
Everyone pitched in-cooks, office
workers, officers-to help get the
place cleared up, supervising the
French Civilian labor and German
prisoners of war. AS soon as a
corner of building was cleared,
waiting trucks were unloaded and
a few men got busy issuing supplies
to other waiting trucks.
Everything went on simultane-
ously. With the clearing came sup
plies, which were Immediately un-
loaded and stored. With the sup
plies came acquisitions from 'front.'
