Three Girls Hit At Rule Sending Husbands Away SAN FRANCISCO, July 11 (UP) Three girls today protest ed an army ruling ordering their Italian soldier husbands sent to an Arizona prison camp because of regulations prohibiting mar riage between prisoners of war and American citizens. The girls are Italian-Americans, They are Norma Romeo Scorza, 23, Virginia Panfili Mazzoncini, 21, and Mildred .Circo Bertolotti. Mrs. Scorza and Mrs. Mazzoncini were married at Antioch, Calif., in a double ceremony June 17 and Mrs. Bertolotti was married June 3 at Martinez. When the marriages were discovered, the army returned their husbands to prisoner-of-war status and sent them to Arizona. The soldiers, Guiscppe Berto lotti, 24, Maurizio Scorza, 22, and Frederico Mazzoncini, 23, were brought to the United States as prisoners of war. They were later granted "co-belligerent status" and were members of the 24th Italian quartermaster group. They met their wives on loaves from their camp. The girls called for an investi gation of "many more secret marriages between American girls and former Italian prisoners of war." "I don't think it's fair to sep arate us," said Mrs. Scorza. "If they don't want the boys to get married, they shouldn't let them go out to dances and parties like they do. They're young and good looking, and, of course, they fall in lover What did the army expect?" Cargo Vessel Lives After 500 Pound i Bombs Hit Decks PORTLAND, July 11 (UP) ; Another plucky ship, the cargo' vessel S. S. Brown Victory, was here today for repairs. Four men were killed and the mast broken when a Jap bomber, loaded with two 500-pound bombs, crashed nt a 45-dcgree angle on her for-; ward deck off Ie Jima May 28. j Launched af Portland only two: months before her .clash with a twin-engined Jap "Betty," the Brown Victory had only the dayi before narrowly missed damage: when a Nip "Kamikaze" plane; zoomed over her bow. i Skippered by T. A. Johansenj of San Francisco, the Brown Vic-1 tory was unloading cargo when1 the Jap bomber, chased by three American Cosair fighters, loomed over the horizon. Apparently finding his plight futile and already punctured by gunfire from the fighters anc: naval fire from the ships in the bay, the pilot turned hs riddled bomber into a suicide ship. In a matter of seconds the Brown Victory was a scene of desolation. The ship's mast and booms were sheared off, and every part of the vessel was smothorod by shrapr(l, killing four men and wounding 20. Barbara Hutton to Divorce Cary Grant HOLLYWOOD, July 11 (UP)--Barbara Hutton, poor little rich girl who married a prince, a count and a movie star in a fran tic search for. happiness, today admitted she had failed again.

Field Fears White Attitude to Others PORTLAND, July 11 (UP) Marshall Field, publisher of the Chicago Sun and New York PM, in Portland today on behalf of the American council on race re lations, said he is concerned about the attitude of white per sons toward members of other races. "If drives against a particular group get started, they get out of control quickly. Then there's no telling what the outcome will be," he said. He cited Hitler's drive against the Jews and other special groups as an example. He said his or ganization is as concerned with Japanese as it is with Negroes.

No Plans Made To Control Japanese WASHINGTON, July 11 (UP) Almost complote absence of inter-allied planning for postwar control of Japan is causing ap prehension today .in some official quarters. Certain U. S. officials, recall- ing tne arrangements under which the big allies drafted thair four-power control plan for Ger many, are wondering when a similar system is going to be formulated for Japan. The answer so far. has been nothing can be done until the United States, Britain, China and if she enters the Pacific war-r-Russia form a Pacific advisory council. So far, according to reliable' sources here, no move has been, made n this direction. While) these quarters entertain no ideas that the Japanese war will end tomorrow, they nevertheless b-i licve a plan for occupation and control of Japan should be com pleted and ready. Nelson Takes 2-up Lead From Sarazen DAYTON,. 0., July 11 (UP) Byron Nelson, Toledo, O., trying to beat the jinx which has been trailing him for three PGA tournaments, grabbed a two-up lead over Gene Sarazen, New York, toduy at the halfwuy mark in their 38-holc opening round match of the 1945 PGA cham pionship. Nelson and Sarazen were all even at the end of their first nine holes, but Nelson fired a ono-undcr-par 35 on the back nine of the rolling Moraine country club course to pick up two holes on Sarazen at the end of the 18. Suruzen, the spry little Con necticut squire who won the first of his three PGA titles 23 years ago, tried a little on the back nine to lake three bogie, one a double bogie, for a 39.

Employment Service Sacnjawea Annex Certificate of Availability Rmiiired Page Five Gerlinger Scouts U. S. Promises of Building Lumber PORTLAND, July 11 (UP)-i G e o rg e Gerlinger, Portland, president of the National Lum ber Manufacturer's association, took issue with government offi cials today who have promised lumber for farm and home .build ing in the remaining months of 1945. Gerlinger said that military and direct war lumber require ments alone will take 80 percent of the west coast production in the next three months. , . "dumber manufacturers would' like nothing better than to make large quantities of this critical material available to home and farm builders at once to help the conversion period ahead," Ger linger stated, "but our first obli gation is to the military services and today lumber is the most critical of all War materials and a shortage might easily hinder if not actually delay our attack on Japan." He said demands for lumber for an attack on the Japanese mainland are consuming the bulk of west coast production, which is the largest share of natural production.
