The beleaguered Japanese at Munda have been blockaded ef fectively by allied planes and ships. The latest attempt to run the allied gantlet into New Georgia occurred the night of July 23-24 when a group of barges heading Into Kula gulf under cover of darkness was spotted by a light surface force which sank one barge and dam aged two others, although a few small craft may have broken through. Bombs Dumped To the west on New Guinea, formations of Liberators and Flying Fortresses dumped 137 tons of bombs on the Salamaua area the heaviest bomb load yet dropped in a single day on that sector. - More than 30 Zeros challenged the American air superiority, but it cost the enemy 11 and probably 18 of their fighters against the loss of one of ours. Liberators, escorted by a strong fighter screen, bombed dispersal and bivouac areas of the Buln-Faisl airdrome where airmen had reported an enemy plane concentration. Fighters swept the field with cannon and machlnegun fire. Mitchells bombed and strafed supply areas at Vila on Kolom bangara island,' causing fires which burned for hours. WASHINGTON.

The 10 raids Sunday and the one shortly after midnight raised to 41 the total of air attacks on Kiska so far this month. Satur day also had been a 10-raid day.

Badoglio moved swiftly to avoid bloodshed and so far but one serious outbreak has been reported a riot in Milan Sunday night that resulted in the death of three fascist party members. Peace Demonstrations Belief that Badoglio and his cabinet would seek some method of approaching the allies for ar mistice terms was strengthened by increasing reports ' of spon taneous peace demonstrations which have broken out in Italy's biggest cities. They began Sun day night, soon after King Vit torio Emanuele had announced the rtsignatkm of Premier Mus solini. Men, women and children poured into the streets of Rome, Naples, Milan, Turin, Genoa and other cities with cries for peace and shouts of joy over Musso lini's downfall. Direct news dis patches from Italy have been halted, but Italian newspapers reaching Switzerland disclosed the scope of the demonstrations, which apparently were nation wide. The Corrlere Delia Sera of Milan reflected the opinion of the majority of the press in an editorial headed: "Mussolini has left We are free." WASHINGTON, July 27 UP) Secretary Knox said today that developments in Italy indicate some attempts to take that coun- try out of the war in the rea sonably near future. The navy secretary told his press conference that he had "no exclusive information" on the situation, but that it was his estimate "that the appearance of things indicates probably some attempt at taking Italy out of the war. He was asked whether he meant an attempt by King Eman uel and Marshal Badoglio, suc cessor to Mussolini. He replied that lie meant such an attempt MADRID, July 27 UP) Ber lin dispatch to the Madrid news paper Informaciones suggested today that Adolf Hitler, appar ently taken by surprise by Pre mier Mussolini's resignation, would like very much to ar range a meeting with his suc cessor, Marshal Pietro Badoglio.

It was stated officially that German troops now have been identified all along the entire front in northeastern Sicily where they are attempting to build a dike across the tip of the island to block the invasion gates to Italy. Losses Skyrocket Enemy losses skyrocketed in the central and southern portion of the line and a number of Ger man battalions lost half of their effective strength in attempts to batter back the relentless for ward rush of the allied troops who swept in a wheeling move ment from central Sicily. The Canadians bore the brunt of the .operation and made gains against the heaviest opposition. and the allied communique said the American advance, too, was proceeding "according to plan." However, the Germans were managing to stiffen their re sistance as the Americans drove into the harder core of the, en emy's defense positions. " Medium bombers attacked railway communications at Marina Di Paola in southern Italy while light bombers and fighter-bombers continued the assault upon shlDolnB in Sicilian harbors and on road communlc. tions on the island, the allied communique said.

Bla Task Nevertheless, he added, Italy's war power was about a tenth of that of Germany's and the allies must not "allow this favorable inclination of our for tunes to blind us to the im mansity of the task before us. Churchill's entry into the house of commons to discuss the downfall of the man he had castigated as a "Pinchbeck Caesar" and "tattered lackey," waa a procession of triumph from the gates of parliament to nis seat. Ha was cheered by a waiting crowd at tha gates as hs jaunti ly walked to the chamber. Mo Oloatlna But there waa no suggestion of gloating aa he discussed the fallen dictator today, and his choice of adjectives was con siderably less picturesque than some that he has used in the past in discussing Mussolini. 'The decision of Italy to con tinue under the German yoke would not seriously affect the general course of the war and still less, would not alter its ultimate results," he said. Seared and Scalded "The only consequence will be that In the next few months Italy will be seared and scalded and blackened from one end to the other," Meanwhile Churchill ex- pressed no opinion on the new government of Italy, "The keystone of the fascist arch has crumbled and without attempting to prophesy It does not seem unlikely thai tne en tire fascist edifice will fall to the ground in ruin if It has not already done so," the prime minister declared. Making his first war state ment to commons since the in vasion of Sicily and the fall of Mussolini, Churchill told the cheering members: Expect Changes We may reasonably expect very great changes win ukc olace in Italy. What their form will be and how they will im pinge upon the forces of Ger man occupation ana control n is too early to forecast." Declarina that vast allied forces are standing at the door way of Italy, the prime minister said: "What is It these vast forces w '"'J" m7 ""' ." . if the Italian people so neciae, relief from war. freedom from servitude and after an Interval a respectable place In a new and rescued Europe."

Ho said German plans called for a stand behind the Po val ley, and suggestod evacuation not only of Italian arms and munitions and troops behind this line, but all possible roll ing stock, food stores and har vests so that the allies would be left with tho problom of supplying the population. Meeting Called ai niussoiim s suggestion, a meeting of the fascist council was called for Saturday. Mean time, although II Duce ex pressed his disgust at the Gor man plans, other party leaders Including Count Galeazzo CI ano, Mussolini's son-in-law, met separately with non-party men The council meeting lasted until 2 a. m., Sunday. After Mussolini made a report, op position formed to attack his conduct of the war and partial larly his apparent acceptance of the German plan. One Way Open On the vote, only six council members stood with Mussolini's argument that the only way open was to accept the Hitler scheme, while 18 others were In open opposition. The vote was taken early in the meeting and Mussolini an nounced that in the face of such opposition he considered it necessary to resign. A long discussion followed concerning tha fate of the fas cist party in event of his resig nation, but by the time the meeting broke up it was agreed that the fascist organization was secondary to what the members believed was the Italian future. Handa in Resignation Early Sunday morning, Mus solini went to the royal palace and handed his resignation to King' Vlttorio Emanuele who was kept Informed of the prog ress of the meeting and had al ready talked with Badoglio. Before the public was in formed of the event, the party took steps designed in part to protect the leaders and in part to hold those considered respon sible for the state of the na tion's affairs. ,r Seattle Youths Riot In Streets of City SEATTLE, July 27 VP) Sher iff Harlan S.
