HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON September 8, 1048 PAGE "TWO TRUCE SIGNED FRIDAY; TERMS-UNCONDITIONAL (Continued From Page One) discussed during the negotla '. tlons. 'To meet this eventuality, It was agreed that one of the sen ior Italian military represent, tlves should not return to Rome, He Is now in Sicily. . "Further, Marshal Badoglio ar ranged to send the text of his proclamation to allied headquar ters." Badoglio's Proclamation Badoglio issued a proclama tion saying the armistice had been requested and granted, and called on all Italian armed forces to "cease all acts of hostility against Anglo-American forces wherever they may be met." Badoglio instructed the Ital ians, however, to "oppose attacks from any other quarters, - warning that German attempts to Interfere would be met by arms. There (till are sizeable Ger man armed forces in Italy. Events may continue to move swiftly in the coming hours and days. Olographic Position Italy's main contribution to Germany in the war was her geographic position, and this is now lost to the Germans except In so far as they may be able to hold on to part of northern Italy themselves. As soon as the announcement was made, allied planes roared over Italy not to-bomb but to bring the Italians the news that the allies no longer are fighting them. Pamphlets dropped The planes dropped pamphlets telling the Italians that the op portunity has come to take "ven geance on the German oppres . fors." The pamphlets declared: "Italians! Backed by the might of the allies, Italy now has the opportunity of taking vengeance On the German oppressors and suding in the expulsion of the eternal enemy from Italian soil." The announcement came as Inspirited Italian troops by the hundreds surrendered .to British and Canadian troops "advancing up the Calabrian ' peninsula, where the allies landed last Fri day on the heels- of a 38-day Si cilian victory .which ' sent the Germans fleeing to he 'main land. . 5K3SKife The capitulation came! from the governmanV-of Marshal Piet ro Badoglio; who succeeded Ben ito Mussolini when i the junior partner of - Adolf Hitler was ousted July 25.' - i Americans Free.

Day was a virtual invalid, and it was presumed he could not get out, but there was a story that he was seen outside just after the start of the fire. The officers questioned Joe Cloud, who lived next door and was on the scene when the fire department and police arrived. They said they had not yet ob tained a coherent account of the blaze, and are anxious to get in touch with any witnesses who were on hand Just after the blaze started. Day was burned beyond rec ognition. By the time officers arrived the fire was so hot it was impossible to attempt a rescue. Police said Day reportedly had S480 in a purse. They were looking through the ashes for remains of the money. NO LEI-LEASE (Continued From Page One) axis, and harbors enemy agents and espionage. As long as Argentina stays out of the inter-American hemispher ic defense setup, it would be folly for the U. S. to allow this coun try to have American-produced instruments of war, huu in timated. Storni, In his letter, recalled the military coup which placed General Pedro Ramirez' govern ment in power and he said the present administration was not fascist nor even .sympathetic with the axis. "Argentine sentiment, emin ently American, firmly opposed to totalitarian regimes, is on the side of the United Nations in ma terial and spiritual action," he declared. . The Argentine's principal com petitor in South America Brazil was praised only today by U. S. Army Chief of Staff George C. Marshall for its early plunge into the war on the allied side and for its work in protecting that theater.' - - S i T" Education of Past And Future Subject Of Talk to Lions ' ' "Education of the Past Com pared to that of the Future, and the Part it will Play in the Post war World," was the subject of talk presented at the Lionr club meeting Tuesday by Arnold Gralapp, superintendent of the city schools.

South of Bryansk another ad vance went forward more than six miles while gains were made west and southwest of Kharkov, ' The Russian announcement of the capture of Stalino came a few hours after the Germans re ported they had evacuated the steel manufacturing center and destroyed all war installations. The red army advance also crossed the rail line to Mariupol, 85 miles southwest of Stalino on the Sea of Azov, making it al most certain that nazi forces which have been fighting east of that town must withdraw to escape entrapment by the south ward turning move. Rail Line Cut The red army newspaper Red Star reported that other units had severed the main railroad from the Donets basin to Dniep eropetrovsk, 115 miles west of Stalino. The German communique, re corded by the Associated Press, said Stalino, Russia's 12th larg est city, had been evacuated "to shorten the front" after all mill tary installations had been de stroyed. Russian dispatches Indicated Stalino fell in flanking moves rather than by direct assault. Nails Killed This new victory followed up on Moscow s announcement that the red armies had killed more than 420,000 Germans, wounded 1,080.000 and captured 38,600 in taking back at least 30,000 square miles of occupied terri tory since July 5. Stalino, a city of about 500, 000 pre-war population, was tak en by the Germans in October, 1941, and the Russians never had been able to wrest it back until now. Good Base At the hub of a railway sys tem serving the. Donets basin, Stalino is an excellent base for a possible thrust southwest to pinch the invaders completely out of their foothold In the Ku ban and in the Crimea. The German war bulletin, said the, Donets battle was raging With "undiminished violence." The Russians said their armies were advancing all along the 800-mile front, and the Germans, as in the case of Taganrog and other cities, were the first to an nounce that Stalino had fallen. The tremendous German cas ualties were announced in a special soviet communique broadcast from Moscow last night. Listed also were stagger ing losses in war material, the Russians reporting they had de stroyed 5729 warplanes, 8400 tanks, 8192 guns and more than 28,000 trucks. Captured material included 1041 tanks, 2018 guns, 5382 ' machineguns " and 7833 trucks. - There was no reference In the Russian recapitulation to their own losses, which the Germans have asserted were extremely heavy. Eagle's Auxiliary The Esgle's Auxiliary will hold ita regular meeting Thursday at 8 p. m. at the Eagle's hall. A potluek will be held afterwards for auxiliary and aerie members. Each per son should bring a covered dish of food. PELICAN TOMORROW Park Birds Create Food, Fuel Problem The birds at Moore park are presenting a problem, with no fuel oil in sight to heat the bird house for the winter. Plans presented at the park board meeting on Tuesday afternoon were to farm the birds out for the duration to anyone who would be inter ested in keeping them. Food bills would be paid by the board. . It this plan does not work out satisfactorily, O. D. Mat thews has offered to keep the birds in a room on his pro perty on Fourth street. Meat for the animals is also very hard to get and it is feared that something will have to be done with them un less more meat is available. E. E. Spencer, caretaker at Moore park reported that, as a whole, attendance at the park had been lower this year than last. This is attributed to the fact that people are working more and they are saving their gas for longer trips. Parachuted Field Artillery Fires On Japs at Lae (Continued From Page One) strong offensive patrol of 100 Japanese troops were routed with heavy casualties near Sin gaua plantation, 10 miles east of Lae on Monday by Australian in fantry which had landed on the New Guinea coast 48 hours earli er. The troops were advancing westward along the Uon gulf toward Lae itself and were ap proaching the Busu river, only five miles from Malahang, one of the threatened city's main air dromes. The Australians were within the range of enemy guns at Lae, but they have not been fired, as yet. The silence of these weap ons indicated the effectiveness of the heavy aerial pounding of Lae by Liberator bombers before the allied invasion Saturday. The field guns dropped from transport planes Sunday were as sembled "as quickly as men could find the pieces in tall grass" and now have been rolled into position and placed in ac tion, headquarters announced. t -i ,-. i- Roosevelt to Open Third War Loan Campaign Tonight WASHINGTON.

' r NAZI Alii FIELDS (Continued From Page One) which had been hit previously In recent days. The announcement, from the U. S. army's European theater headquarters, said RAF, dominion and allied Spitfires escorted the bomber fleets. The nail-controlled Paris radio declared that American bombers had struck in "violent attack" at Amiens and had pounded Ab beville twice more, but there was no announcement from al lied air officials of new raids against these oft-battered ob jectives. Mosquito Raids Mosquito bombers pounded en emy airfields and rail targets in France and Belgium, the air min istry announced, to keep the air offensive rolling through anoth er night, and naval planes de stroyed a German E-boat In the channel. Although the RAF's heavy bombers took their first layoff in three nights in the large-scale bombardment of German in dustrial centers and, railroads leading Into Italy, the night forays of the swift Mosquitos and the dsyllght attacks, by al lied bomber formations carried the non-stop offensive against western Europe into its seventh day. Railways Hit , Rail targets at Amiens and Abbeville already had been hit twice before by allied airmen in the past week. The Berlin radio, In a broad cast recorded by the ministry of information, said two British "nuisance raiders" flew over German territory last night. One plane of the Mosquito type was brought down by anti-aircraft guns on the German-Dutch fron tier, the broadcast said. The latest blows against the west side of the European fort ress came after one of the heav iest days in the week-long series of assaults yesterday when Amer ican heavy and medium bombers and fighters joined British air units in blasting enemy object ives on land and sea. Night Fire Melts Car; Razes Trailer House, Buildings A fire at 8:49 Tuesday night destroyed a trailer house, car, and several buildings in the 1800 block on Wantland street. The fire was on the property occupied by Clay Green, 1825 Wantland street, and destroyed a trailer house belonging to H. W. Gledltsch and an automobile belonging to Ray Hawkins. Records indicate that dive bombing was first used by the marines in Haiti. NEW TODAY LORETTA YOUNG -PLU5- "At The Front In North Africa" .In Technicolor UTS SPREAD A LOAD Or JAM, Capitulation of Italy Poses Many New Questions By The Associated Press These questions arose from the Italian surrender today: 1.

What effect will the Italian surrender have on the waver Ing morale of Hitler's Balkan satellites of Hungary, Rumania, Bulgaria and Croatia? Hungarian policy has been linked more closely with Italy than with Germany and all the Balkan states have shown increasing signs of wor weariness. 8. Does the surrender Include the French Island of Corsica, barely 30 miles from southern France, which the Italians oc cupied when the allies landed In North Africa? 8.
