was agreed that one of the sen

"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

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

where the red army pushed on
up to seven miles.
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.

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.

the range of enemy guns at Lae,

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.

Capitulation of Italy
Poses Many New Questions
By The Associated Press
These questions arose from the Italian surrender today:
1. What becomes of the Italian fleet, which Is built around
seven battleships and Is split between Pola on the Adriatic and
Spezia on the Italian west coast?
2. Will the Germans retire from the Po valley In the north,
where they have been reported to have as many as 15 or 20
divisions?
8. What happens to the 25 or 30 Italian garrison divisions In
the Balkans and France? And to the 250,000 Italian workmen
estimated in Germany?
4. 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. Will the scattered German units still In southern and cen
tral Italy bo allowed to return to Gormany?
