Invasion Of Riviera
Delayed Final Peace,
Lord Wilson Holds
BY the Assoeio'ed Press

Britain's Field Marshal Lord Will
son suggested today that victory in
Europe may have been delayed for
months by the 1914 invasion of
Southern France.
Lord Wilson disclosed in be-
lated report to the Combined Chiefs
of Staff that chief British military
leaders vaInly sponsored an alter
native drive through Northern
Italy toward Hungary which he
said offered an opportunity to de-
feat the Germans before the end
of 1914"
The American high command
held out, however, for the original
plan to invade the continent via
the French Riviera to support the
main effort through Normandy.
Lord Wilson, then Allied supreme
commander in the Mediterranean
bowed to the decision of the COM
bined chiefs, land the Southern
France invasion, after repeated can
cellations and deferments. was car
ried out to quick victory.
The field marshal, now Britaiu's
senior representative on the Com
bined Chiefs of Staff organization
in Washington, then was Gen. Sir
Henry Maitland Wilson. His 10000
| word report was published by the
War Department.
| In 1t he said the target for the
Mediterranean invasion force of 10
divisions was still under discussion
even in the midst of preparations
to sail from Italy and North Africa.
With troops actually boarding the
ships, there was sudden proposal
from London to divert the expedi-
ton to the Atlantic for a landing
in Northern France. Then five days
before the August IS Riviera D-Day.
the final go-ahead decision was
given.
In his proposal to attack through
the Pc Valley with the aim of try
ing to bring about the collapse of
Hungary, Lord Wilson said he had
the support of British Gen. Sir r.
l.. G. Alexander, the top Allied COM
mander in Italy, and initially of the
British chiefs of stats.
However. the Allies had COM
mitted themselves at the 1943
Teheran conference to the Southern
France campaign. Gen. Eisenhower
supported this plan consistently and
Gen. George c. Marshall, American
chief of staff. advanced the con-
sideration which Lord Wilson said
proved to be decisive.
This was that Marseilles was
needed as port to permit the
rapid transfer and support of be-
tween 40 and so American divisions
still in the United States.

 PROPERTY MAN

In all the years I've been in the motion picture business I've never ceased to marvel at the little everyday miracles performed at the studio and I'm not re- ferring to my acting. The miracles I speak of are the ones achieved by the studio property men, who are best described as "Aladdins in T-ShirtS."
 Their work is never-ending and unpredictable. Just the other day the director asked Royce Finley, the prop man on our new picture, for a roll of tWo-sided tape and before you could say My Favorite Brunette" there he was all tangl- ed up in the sticky stuff. If any, one asked that guy for striped paint, he'd bring it, brush and all. Left-handed screwdrivers and buckets of steam are no mere practical jokes at studio; they're everyday requirements. One day on location, miracle man Finley was ordered to supply an elephant in short order and he calmly in- quired, Male or female?"

HOLLYWOOD, Oct 2-I never hear screen idol beefing about the public'S intrusionS on his privacy without thinking of Donald Colman and smothering yawn. Colman, you see, is living prof that star. given bit of intelligence and good taste, can have just as private a life as he desires.
 In his hey-dey as great lover" RonTlie was the most sought-after man in Hollywood, but never for a imoment did he sacrifice his precious privacy. He simply made it 8 rule to be unfailingly courteous while keeping his own affairs strictly to himself. He'd been here for years before Hollywood discovered that he was married-and he'd been divorc- ed for years before Hollywood knew he was free. Despite the fact that he was universally liked, I'll wager that in his bachelor days, there weren't hundred people in the en- tire industry who even knew where he lived.
 He never hired 8 press agent and never solicited interviews, yet when he found himself obliged to talk to writers, he diverted the conversa- ! tion into such interesting channels that the scribe seldom discovered until he was back at his typewriter that the one subject left untouched had been the private affairs of Ron- aid Colman.
 Don't get the idea that Colman was. or is, misanthrope, he-Gar- bo. Far from it. He was one of the most affable men I've ever known. iBasically, I think, his ability to dodge the spotlight lies in a quality that is possessed by only one actor in a million-genuine modesty. ! If some of today's "beefers" would develop that same quality they might find it cure-all for their much-publicized woes.
