Fights East The 5th army meanwhile fought its way steadily east and northeast from Salerno with American troops capturing the towns of Campagna and Monte-corvino-Rovella while the Brit ish chased fleeing Germans from the town of San Cirpriano. On Corsica French soldiers and native patrols pursued a German garrison estimated at 12,000 men toward the eastern shores while American Libera tor bombers blasted at the prin cipal avenue of German evacua tion from theisland the- Cor sican harbor of Bastla and the Italian port of Leghorn. Nothing to Add The miltary spokesman said he had "nothing to add" to Winston Churchill's statement yesterday that American troops had landed on Sardinia, but the belief prevailed here that what ever units were sent to that Island intended only to co-operate with an Italian division which already at Premier Pietro Badoglio's command took con trol and compelled the Germans to flee. Another menace to the Ger mans on the Italian mainland, Gen. Sir Bernard L. Montgom ery's 8th army, drove northward and inland and occupied the key highway and rail center of Po tenia. ' Occupation of Potenxa, which la a Junction point of five main roads, gave the allies control of the entire inland highway and rail systems south of a line ex tending eastward from Salerno.

TN London today, Anthony Eden "discloses that Rudolph Hess (then No. 2 nasi) told the Duke of Hamilton (on whose estate in Scotland he landed by plane) that the foehrer (Hitler) "does not want to defeat Eng land, and he wants to stop fight ing." That has been kept a dark secret for two years. WHY is it "disclosed" now? -r UERE'S a guess: Hess flew to England in an effort to make a separate peace with Britain so that Hit ler could GO AFTER RUSSIA FOR BLOOD, with nobody at his back door to be afraid of. That was kept secret for two years. The fact that Eden "dis closes" it now must have some particular significance at this time. So let's guess again: Britain, right now, must want very much to prove to Stalin that she STOOD BY HIM in a grave pinch two years ago. Why RIGHT NOWT WE'LL have to go on guessing: Stalin, for realistic reas ons of his own, prefers to keep us and the British (especially the British) OUT of the Balkans presumably being confident of his OWN ability to handle the Germans down that way and preferring to keep himself free from entanglements when the time comes (after the war) to go after what Russia WANTS FOR HERSELF such as warm water ports, "buffer" states, etc. TF these guesses are anywhere near the truth, they mean that the much-discussed "second'.' front has its POLITICAL side. That is to say, Stalin wants us to do our fighting in western Europe and STAY OUT of the Balkans because, if w HELP HIM lick the Germans DOWN THERE we (especially the Brit ish) will have a legitimate claim to some of the spoils of victory. If he licks the Germans alone, Russia will have SOLE claim to the spoils. The British want what they regard as their legitimate share of the spoils In that part of the world.' '--" , QNE dislikes to deal with spec ulation of this sort, but his tory tells us very plainly indeed that in world wars, participated in by many nations, political considerations are always pres ent in the minds of the- higher ups.

KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON Marshall Nomination Sets Up Storm of Hitler's Fortress (Continued From Page One) "Marshall would be one of the best leaders in the world for such a post."

Such coordination has been supplied to date by the combined chiefs of staff, of which Marshall is a principal member.
