anniversary of Benito Mussolini's S
execution a year ago today found
an intensive search continuing for
grave-robbers, presumably Fas-
cists, who took his body from a
Potter's Field in Milan.
Luigi Ferrari, chief of Italian
police, declared reports in the
Rome press tonight that Mussol-
ini's body had been found were
untrue, and said there were no
new developments.
A year after his death there still
are two versions of Mussolini' S
execution, neither of which is offl-
cial. One version which was given
wide circulation by the Partisan
press at the time is that the dicta-
tor was shot with his mistress,
Claretta Petacci, on lonely coua-
try road near Dongo. The other
version is that he died in a mass
execution at Dongo of top Fasclsts
