Chaos Reigns in Italy as German and Italian
Troops Clash in Pitched Battles; Reinforcements
Kept From Germins by Allied Aerial Bombardment
ALLIED HEADQUARTERS in North Africa. Sept. 11
(AP).—The American Fifth army has seized the port of Sal-
erno and thrown back several more German armored at-
tacks to deepen its wedge in the Naples area, allied head-
quarters announced today while chaos reigned throughout
Italy and Berlin reported pitched battles between Germans
and Italians in the north.
Smashing aerial assaults have prevented the enemy
from getting reinforcements over badly battered highways
and railroads to the Naples sector, and a large portion of
Italy’s capital strength reached the safety of Malta, official
reports said.
Crack nazi armored units lunged in several fierce coun-
terassaults against Lt. Gen. Mark W. Clark’s American and
British invaders at Salerno Friday, but these were broken
and the allies drove inland.
Several pockets of enemy resistance have been wiped
out, and prisoners now total several hundred, all Germans.
There are no Italians reported fighting in this.area. Salerno
(pop. 50,000) is one of the larger provincial bities of south-
ern Italy.

Mrs. Caraway added. “I can’t see

ices and not allow fathers’to go.”
Mrs. Caraway told an inter-
viewer she anticipates consider-
able debate on the question of
sending fathers to the battle-
fronts. As for her, she has faith
in the judgment of army and
navy officials about the required
size of the armed forces, now es-
timated at around 10,000,000, and
said she would not question their
views.

Meanwhile in the south, the British army met little opposition
and despite demolitions went ahead more rapidly, now holding prac-
tically all the territory south of the bottleneck formed by the Gulf of
Squillace and the Gulf of Santa Eufemia.
This forms practically all of the toe of Italy.
(NBC Correspondent Merrill Mueller on a broadcast, said the
Eighth army had advanced 35 miles northward at such a pace that it
is beginning to overtake the retreating Germans.)
The British force at Taranto completed occupation of that naval
base and town. Most of the Germans were reported to have evac-
uated the city before landing.
(Radio France at Algiers said the British were fanning out in
three directions from Taranto.) .
Germans Hold Advantage
Headquarters said the Germans had many natural advantages
over the attackers in the Naples area landings and were prepared to
meet the invasion which they had fully anticipated.____
The German communique declared that the Italian naval base
of Pola on the Yugoslav shore of the Adriatic sea, and the island of
Rhodes in the Dodacanese had surrendered to the Germans
(“Our troops have marched into Milan, Turin, and Padua,” ‘it
said, while a broadcast of the German news agency. Transocean, re-
ported “the major part of the Italian peninsula is under the control
of German armed forces.” German headquarters said a counter-at-
tack had regained some ground in bitter fighting in the Salerno area.
(A British broadcast heard by CBS said Berlin had announced
annulment of Croatia’s treaty with Italy guaranteeing Croatia's in-
dependence and cancellation of the offer of the Croat crown to the
Italian prince of Aosta. It added the Zagred radio had appealed- to
Croats “to support the Germans in their struggle against the Ital-
ians.”*,
Enemy Is Using More Planes
The Germans were throwing more aviation into the battle of
Italy and attempted to bomb the Fifth army troops.
'There was no official information here about conditions in Italy ।
other than allied occupied areas, but broadcasts from Germany and
other European countries formed a fantastic picture of the situation.
By these accounts, the Germans are installed solidly in northern
and central Italy with Rome and Milan surrendered to them after
battles with the Italians.
Latest reports said the Italians were still resisting the Germans
at Turin and four companies of German shock troops had been wiped
out there.
The Germans said a new puppet Italian fascist government had
taken over power but indications were that it would get little popu-
lar support to continue Italy in the war.
While many reports conflicted, one thing seems certain----Italy
has become just another country occupied by the Germans who ap-
parently propose to make it a major battlefield The Germans ap-
parently are engendering hatred for them by the Italians equal to
that of the Poles or any other people they have ravished.
The prevailing attitude of the Italians, however, is one of despair
instead of pugnacity, ____________________________‘
