LONDON Feb 15.—A joint Brit-
ish and American statement relax-
ing Italian armistice terms to some
, extent- was reported in the offing
today as Paris dispatches declared
President Roosevelt wss expected
to visit Rome before returning to
Washington.
It was predicted the state-
ment would promise greater
economic aid to Italy and lift
some of the .Allied control of
Administrative affairs.
An Associated Press dispatch last
night fron Rome declared it was
understood there the declaration
would be announced soon in Wash-
ington and London This dispatch
said agreement on the new status
for Italy was reported to have been
reached after the British steadfast-
ly refused an American suggestion
that the present armistice be
scrapped.
The new pronouncement was be-
lieved in Rome to keep Italy still
definitely in the category of a con-
quered country. Some Italian offi-
cials are said to have advocated
full elimination of the armistice
agreement on the ground it con-
stitutes a psychological impediment
to full Italian collaboration in
fighting the Nazis.
The Rome dispatch said that de-

spite the expected new declaration
it was believed all secret clauses of
the surrender document, signed in
September, 1943, by Marshal Pietro
Badoglio, would remain known only
to a few.
Why these clauses never have
been made public remains a
mystery. The Italian govern-
ment has said it was willing to
have them known. President
Roosevelt said last summer he
saw no objection Military se-
curity, however, still is said to
be involved.
Information from Rome indi-
cated the Italian statement already
had been initialed by responsible
officials of both Britain and the
United States The Malta confer-
ence of President Roosevelt and
Prime Minister Churchill, while
both were enroute to the Crimea
Big Three meeting, seemed one of
the most likely sites for the signing
to have taken place.
While Paris dispatches were
reporting it was expected Pres-
ident Roosevelt would call on
Pope Plus and perhaps visit
France during his current visit
abroad, official announcement
was made last night that Chur-
chill had reached Athens. He
was accompanied by Foreign
Secretary Anthony Eden.
It was disclosed also that Gen.
George C. Marshall, U. S. army
chief of staff, had stopped off in
Italy on his way back from the
Big Three parley and had been
touring the front for three days.

R. Stettinius, who went to Moscow

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15—(P)—A
move had developed today to defer
consideration of Aubrey Williams’
nomination as Rural Electrification
administrator until the Senate ag-
riculture committee acts on a bill
to remove REA from the agriculture
department.
Senator Shipstead (R-Minn) ex-
pressed to the committee a hope
that this would be done and later
told reporters he would make a
formal motion to that effect when

Abilene's Newest And Most Modern
RECAPPING PLANT
Last summer we disposed of our recapping plant because the equip-
ment had became badly worn after three years’ use, 24 hours every
day. We preferred to be remembered for our good work by the
thousands of people we did work for, rather then do inferior work on
badly worn equipment.
Now, we have installed COMPLETELY NEW and Ike MOST MODERN
EQUIPMENT to assure motorists the best in tire renewing.
Our facilities are adequate to recap one or all the tires on your car
overnight—while you sleep. Just leave your cor overnight, or if
necessary we can lend you tires to use while yours are being recapped.

son and the Texas senate for more
Democrats on the rolls of state
officials.
There were approximately a score
of Democrats who attended the
meeting; they presumably were
Simon-pure Roosevelt Democrats:
yet, they themselves were not
agreed, nor did some of them agree,
upon the regularity, or non-regul-
arity of pending nominees before
the Texas senate.
T. F. Richards of Lockhart,
whe helped organize the pro-
Roosevelt caucus prior to the
September convention, e on-
demned all appointees of the
governor without reservation.
“If any of them are not Texas
Regulars, it was a mistake,” ob-
served Richards.
It was pointed eat to Rich-
ards that William Kittrell, the
executive committee secretary
had without qualification en-
dorsed two regents as “Deme-
erats"—Dave Warren and E.
Richards, an extremely outspok-
en man, quite willingly stated that
in the current University of Texas
fight, there is no particular ques-
tion of academic freedom involved.
It is, he asserted, a clash of
economic ideas . . “Special in-
terests" versus the common Inter-
est. He said he for one was grate-
ful to Dr Rainey for pitching the
case on the question of academic
freedom because it was more readi-
ly understandable to the average
citizen than the deeper and more
fundamental clash of economic
theories.
In his opinion, Governors O’Dan-
iel and Stevenson represent a group
which proposed to educate the na-
tion's youth in a way of thinking:
and the first step in this plot to
to get control of the institutions
of higher learning.
On the Democratic party's of -
ficial interest in the present legis-
lature, it seems almost wholly con-
