ITALIAN SURRENDER TERMS MADE PUBLIC By GRAHAM HOVEY WASHINGTON, Nov. 6 iff) The allies made public the much I 1 Ttnllon nrmlstlCe todBV' mllclna Iffltla old rUITlOr DUt tailing to clear up entirely why the terms were kept secret lor 9ft mnnthfl. ' nnliased simultaneously In Washington, London and Rome, the armistice and related docu mentstotalling some 10,000 words disclosed that: 1. Exhaustive unconditional surrender terms officially till In effect were imposed on Italy. 2. In practice,' however, the allies never Invoked some provi sions and modified others sub stantially at frequent intervals. 3. The terms provided for no final dispositions of Italian ter ritory or property. Rumor Groundless Thus, the old rumor that the armistice gave the British a vir tual stranglehold on Italian port cities for an extended postwar period was proved groundless. So were many other reports which had been bandied about not without effect on the Ital ians during the two years of allied silence about the terms. Then why the secrecy? Gov ernment officials explained it to reporters this way: The state department and Brit ish foreign office had discussed publication of the terms as early as December, 1943. . At that time, allied military officials objected. They said the Germans and Mussolini's fas cist government In northern Italy could make good propa ganda use of the armistice terms, especially among the pro-allied partisan fighters. The subject was brought up several times subsequently, but the original military viewpoint prevailed virtually until V-E day. Reminded by newsmen that al most half a year had elapsed since V-E day, the officials spe cifying they were not to be iden tified further said the British and American governments felt after the Potsdam big three con ference that a final peace treaty with Italy "oon would be writ ten. It was believed, these officials added, that "no good purpose" Oregon Men Head Oil Exploration Company CORVALLIS, Ore., Nov. 6 (if) Three Corvallis men and one Albany resident are in charge of an oil exploration company which has opened a new field in the Great Falls, Montana, region, it was learned here to day.

It finally was decided to pub' lish them after the September conference of foreign ministers, charged with drawing up a final peace settlement, ended- m a stalemate in London. Secretary of State Byrnes tc- cently called the armistice terms "harsh and obsolete.' tioverii' ment officials long familiar with tne documents agree, iney say the terms are more detailed and sweeping than those imposed on the former axis satellite coun tries of Bulgaria, Hungary and Komania. They stress, however, that the provisions still in effect will be superseded entirely by the final peace treaty with Italy.
