Us Army Major
Was Killed
By Americans
italian Government
Has Made No Request
For Extraditing
The Americans

ROME. Aug. From the
American embassy in Rome comes
the latest development in the
story Of the killing Of an Ameri-
can officer behind enemy lines in
Italy during world war two.
The defense department has
announced that Major William
Holohan was killed by two fellow
American servicenen with the
aid Of two Italians,
All were attached ioa secret
mission which parachuted into
enemy territory IN northern Italy
to get information on partisan
guerrilla bands.
The plot to kill Holohan was
said to have been devised after
a disagreement over how much
arms aid To give Communist par
tiSans.
New spokesman for the Am
erican embassy in Rome says TINT
SO far as he knows the Italian gov-
ernrssnt has made no request vet
for extraiiting the two former
American soldiers.
The defense department has al
ready announced in Washington
that American courts have no jur-
isdietion in the matter, and 1t APP
pears that the only chance Of
prosecution lies with action by the
Italian courts.
The embassy also explained
that President Truman would
have to sign extradition papers
before Italy could bring the two
men to trial. Normally a request
for extradition would be made BY
the Italian embassy in Washing
ton.
The two Americans named In
the case are former Lieutenant
Aldo Icardi and former Sergeant
Carl Lodolce.
Icardi. now working in New
York city, has denied any part
in the killing.
He said he assumed il may
have been done by two Italians.
Lodolce. living in Rochester,
New York. has withheld CONF
rnent on the case. He is now at
tending school under the CT bill.

partment issues such an invita-
/ ton.
II is understood, by the way,
that State Department officials,
with advance White House ap-
prevail, have approached MacAr.
thur with a suggestion that he
take part in the treaty confer

next month while the Russian is
in this country for the San Fran
cisco meeting.
Mr.. Truman added that he
does not believe anyone can up
set the arrangements for the

treaty.
Some observers have express
ed fears that Russia might try
to block the signing of the ire
