By RICHARD O. MA8BOCK
(Former Chief of Associated Press
Bureau In Rams)
WASHINGTON, May 20. -(*►-
Diplomatic observers expressed
doubt today that Italy would be
invaded by the Allies this summer,
although they said the threat of
invasion would hang constantly
over that unhappy peninsula.
These observers, who have con-
centrated on the Italian situation
from day to day. said the major
drive in Europe would almost cer-
tainly be made against the Ger-
mans, with Italy a secondary fac-
tor in the invasion planning.
Since Berlin is the major objec-
tive In Europe, it was believed
here that easier roAds lie through
countries other than Italy—France
and tiie Balkans for Instance—be-
cause of Italy's peculiar geograph-
ical formation with the Alps block-
ing the upper end of the peninsula
Pending the invasion of the con- '
tlnent, probably at several points,
tlie American-British policy appar-
ently is to bomb Italy out of the
war
Pumlble «wveiapmenls
If Italy collapses, deserted by the
Germans, four major developments
are expected:
1 Tlie Italian army would offer |
only brief resistance U> Allied oc- ,
cupatlon, with the Italian people |
aix'epUng it as a deliverance from
Fascism.
2 Premier Mussolini would take
his government in exile to Ger-
many. to escape retribution and
to avoid the surrender of his last
vestige of personal power

Hard Hammering
By NOLANDNORGAARD
ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN
NORTH AFRICA, May 30.—UP>—
Allied aircraft, including large
forces of Flying Fortresses and Lib-
erators. gave Italy's outer Invasion
defenses—Sicily, Sardinia and Pan-
teUeria—what was officially de-
scribed as “a terrific hammering**
yesterday and destroyed 33 Axis
planes in air combat.
Nearly 400 planes from the
Northwest African Air Force bomb-
ed and gunned docks, shipping,
airfields, supplies and communica-
tions lines in the smoking, fire-
grimed Italian strongholds in the
Mediterranean.
A large force of Flying Fortresses
of the Northwest African Com-
mand pasted docks, railroad yards,
pewer stations and the naval base
at Messina, Sicily, and Liberators
of the Middle East Command stir-
red up the ruins there by dumping
175 tons of explosives In a separate
raid.
Eleven planes failed to return
from the missions undertaken by
the Northwest African Force, but
an official announcement said
"great damage was done to import-
ant industrial and military targets
and a supply ship and a tug were
set on fire."
Daylong Attack
With American planes delivering
the main blows, the raids began
early in the morning, and almost
continually throughout the day-
light hours bombers and fighters
were over at least one pf the three

to capture only a
3 per cent victory tax and 17 er
cent for the income tax fund, it
will not fuUy settle the obligations
. of salary and wage earners whose
i Income mounts into the higher
surtax brackets. Single persona
( paid more than 02,700 » year and
married persons paid 03400 or more
. would have to estimate their total
I tax and pay quarterly on the
amount above withholdings.
A similar method would be used
to make approximately current the
payments of business men, profes-
atonal worker, landlord and others
whose income is derived from other
than wages or salaries Underesti-
mates would be penalised.
Before the withholding tax was
applied, exemptions of 0334 would
be granted for single persons, 01440
for married persons, plus 0312 for
each dependent. There would be
no withholding tax on the pay of
member of the armed forcse, preach-
ers. farm workers, domestic ser-
I vanta, casual workers and a few
other classes.
Fanners would be under a special
rule. They could file a declaration
of their estimated tax any time be-

and pay the amount due.

ment ort the 15th day of the third

A special rule would apply thia
year for all taxpayers, who pre-
sumably have paid their first quar-
terly installment and soon will nay
the second quarter of the tax. The
payments would be applied on their
unabated current tax BaMUttea. and
the second half of the year they
would go on the pay-as-you-go
baris. whether by withholding or
by estimates and quarterly pay-
ments.
