termed a "heavy bombardment."
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

spotted by a light surface force
which sank one barge and dam

small craft may have broken

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

which burned for hours.
WASHINGTON. July 27 UP)

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-

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

Enemy losses skyrocketed in

Nevertheless, he added,
Italy's war power was about a

the allies must not "allow this

castigated as a "Pinchbeck

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

very great changes win ukc
olace in Italy. What their form
will be and how they will im

pressed his disgust at the Gor

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

meeting broke up it was agreed
that the fascist organization was

believed was the Italian future.
