yards was the closest target to
tho Vatican.
Forty-five minutes after the
first attack another wave of Fly
ing Fortresses laid a new pat
tern of bombs over the same
yards.
All the crews were carefully
instructed to avoid historical and
religious points by means of
large aerial photographs on
which such places as Vatican
City, St. John La tern n and
others wero outlined In red with
the legend nearby: "Must on no

A terrific forco of explosives
burst in Rome
Rail Traffic Hit
The city's railroad yards re
cently have been filled to over
flowing with vast shipments of
war material and detachments of
troops probably bound for Sicily
to reinforce axis armies there.
Although recent allied raids
on Naples are known to have
disrupted rail communications
on that line, the Rome route is
un even more vital link in the
Italian military supply system,
The principal center of Italian
aircraft construction and repair
also is located In Romo.
Reasons Told
Prior to the falling of the
bombs went leaflets telling Ital
ians why tho eternal city had to
be attacked because the fascists
capitalizing on hallowed pre
cincts, had systematically con
centrated their war machinery
there and tunneled German
troops as well as their own
through Roman railways.
"It Is from this war engine
that weapons to kill our soldiers
have been coming," the allied
message said.
"Bombs Always!"
Bombs were sway dropped
on their targets in broad day
light at 11:13 a. m. (2:13 a. m.,
Pwt).
(The bombing was announced
by the war department in Wash
ington at 2:29 a- m. before the
bombers had time to return.)
(An Algiers radio broadcast at
2 p. m. 9 a. m., Pwt. said the
returning planes were Just then
coming back.
(A CBS commentator. In a
broadcast from Algiers recorded
by The Associated Press in Lon
don, said "it may be assumed
the stUck.was an American op
eration.") Early Report
It was the first time In this
war that a report on a bombing
was released before the attack
actually started. Correspondents
were given the information at
11 a. m- The bomb bay doors
were opened in the lead flight
of the allied planes 13 minutes
later and tho radio operators on
the flight informed headquarters
Instantly.
Tho reason was to forestall or
discount a flood of axis propa
ganda claiming Rome had been
bombed indiscriminately, with
lurid and fantastic tales flashed
to Catholic countries over the
world.
Rome is barely 3S0 miles from
advanced allied air bases and
Mussolini and his fascist chief
tains are reported to have lived
in terror ot a bombing of their
capital since tho turn in the for
tunes of war in the Mediterran
ean. Office at Capital
The fascist chieftain Is report
ed to have had several different
headquarters arranged in various
parts of Italy, but his main of
fice remained in the capital.
Thousands of Italians had
flocked to the capital, believing
it would be safe from bombing.
The pilots, navigators and
bombardiers who made the at
tack were hand-picked from
among thousands, selected for
special qualities in which their
military efficiency was only one,
and then went through intensive
weeks of training by allied in
telligence experts who had lived
for years in Rome.
They memorized a large map
of Rome to be sure of their tar
gets. They had to take all these
precautions because Mussolini
had built up a big war machine
virtually In the shadow of Va
tican City.

pOR several days now, an in
teresting show has been stag
ed by us on one side and Italy's
fascist leaders on the other for
the benefit of the Italian people.
We're telling the common run
of Italians they have everything
to gain and nothing to lose by
throwing over the racketeers
who have delivered them into
Germany's slave-driving clutches
and coming over to' our side,
where they will receive honor
able treatment, including restor
ation of Italy to the status of a
self-respecting nation.
Mussolini's fascist crew, which
has ALL to lose and NOTHING
TO GAIN by Italy's surrender, is
shouting that if Italy yields she
will be dismembered and her
people enslaved the same argu
ment that is stiffening the backs
of the German people.
WHAT the outcome will be,
u,,jr tunc ;au leu-
We must remember that tho
Italian people are already ef
fectively enslaved and would
have to go to war with their
German masters (including the
dreaded Gestapo) in order to get
free.
It means a fight EITHER way.
Maybe they'd rather let events
take their course and LET US
lick the Gestapo.

more or less along the WHOLE

man lines on the Mius river and
in the lower Donets basin were
foiled by the tenacious defense
and counterattacks of nazl forces,
the communique added. On the
Orel front and north of Belgorod
the Germans said they smashed
repeated attacks by soviet infan
try and tank attacks. The Ger
man air force was successful in
repelling soviet air attacks, the
communique said.) .
The soviet midnight communi
que reported that the red army
had advanced an additional four
miles in one sector during the
fighting yesterday capturing sev
eral villages and killing about
8000 German troops.
Tanks Knocked Out
The battle, which was intend
ed by the Germans to pinch off
the Kursk salient and straighten
out the line, continued to pile
up heavy losses in the nazi ar
mored and air divisions, the Rus
sians said. They announced they
had knocked out 78 tanks and
137 planes on Saturday and said
an incomplete check showed 20
more tanks destroyed yesterday
to bring German losses to the
staggering total of approximate
ly 3500 tanks and 2000 planes in
the last two weeks.
Russian communiques have in
dicated during the last two days
that red army troops were ad
vancing steadily if somewhat
slower despite adverse weather
conditions. Their reports of the
fighting showed that the Ger
mans were nipping at the soviet
flanks and melting back in the
face of determined red army
mechanized attack.
EIGHT FIRES
Sunday lightning caused
eight small fires in the vicinity
yesterday, Klamath Forest Pro
tective association officials re
ported today.
Largest of the fires was an
acre and a half blaze on the
side of Buck peak, in the Wey
erhaeuser slash. The fire start
ed early in the evening and
was put out in an all-night
fight.
A snag fire started in section
18, in the Hilkie slash near
Mule hill, and workers fought
Monday to extinguish the blaze.
Three other snag fires were
reported, all on the south side
ot Grizzly mountain.
Most recently reported of the
fires was one in California, just
north of the Copco reservoir.
Little damage is expected be
cause the area is covered with
grass and rock and has only
scattered timber..
Snag fires were also reported
south of Buck lake, and north
east of Gerber reservoir. Both
these started last night.
- No material damage was
done by any of the fires be
cause of prompt action taken
by fire fighting units. Danger
in some of these areas was
great because of the condition
of. the woods and because of
the small amount of rain which
accompanied the thunder storm.

TAKEN BY U.S.

Canadian units, jabbing danger

flank where it is stretched in
front of the roadless area ot
Mount Etna, were said in Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower's com
munique to be gaining import
ant ground "with skill and de
termination in difficult coun
try." These battle-hungry soldiers
captured Piazza Armerina, 15
miles directly east of Caltanls
setta. One-Third Taken
(The Algiers radio, heard by
Reuters in London, said allied
troops also were in the immedi
ate vicinity ot Ramacca, 13 miles
east of Piazza Armerina and 22
miles southwest of Catania.) ;
In this 10th day of the allied
invasion, the combined force
had taken from the axis approxi
mately one-third of all Sicily,
the official war bulletin stated
Following the capture of Ag
rigento and Porto Empedocle
on the south coast, American
troops of Lieut. Gen. George S.
Patton Jr., were driving north
ward, widening the gap be
tween the enemy forces, in
western and eastern Sicily.
Capture Announced
The capture of Caltanissetta,
eight miles north of the pre
ously reported northern point
of American advance, was an
nounced today at headquarters.
It is a highly important town
dominating a network of roads
and railways running through
central Sicily. It is about 28
miles from the south coast and
only about 37 miles from the
north coast.
Hardly 10 miles farther along
to the northeast is Enna, de
scribed as the strategic center
ot the big island.
Contact Mad
The Canadians and Ameri
cans gained contact after their
captures of Caltanissetta and
Piazza Armerina and both arm
ies then turned north in a rapid
advance upon Enna, which has
been called the "navel of
Sicily."
Geographically it is almost
the' dead center of the island
and it is the focal point of vir
tually every main highway cut
ting through that area.
The general line of the ad
vance of the. whole front was
now approximately even, from
the left flank where the Amer
icana were attacking, through
the center, where the Canad
ians were in action, to the right
flank where the British were
battling.
