British elements of’ the 5th anny in Italy. puahin I - ii 1h slope rilglow Minturno ridge to the bit flank, have at, ioifz: Qfmvfilrng more medlately important to the Allied march on Rom; than the classical Appian way route between Rome and Naples.

i “ith capture of Minturno, they are moving on an indicated seven- {n le flffllill to clear the coastal secaur of the lllinturno-Casslno-Aliiia atera h gbway. French units of Gen. Mark Clark's army a," “mg, m“ road at thc inshore end and American forces in the centre are convcrgin‘ on Cassino.

Thus ll. seems clear that an Allied triple squeeze is in progress aimed at clearing the whole vlidth of the Llri Valley. German expectation of the early fall of ICassino was indicated in the Berlin annoulllcmcnt of an evacuation of Minturmi.

It IS obvious on any ‘detailed map of Italy, however, that not the Appian Way. but the Minturno-Cassino crossroads is the Allied objective in jumping the Garigllano River. The natural defences available to bar a direct push up the Applan Way are far too formidable to expect such an Allied attempt.

And there is still nowhere in evidence any great promise of decisive action or a faster-paced Allied advance on Home. The Italian campaign "l" "m?! Pflllllrlly an Allied diversion play to a-id the tremendous Rus- sian offensive in the east and help out an Allied west-front amphibious attack when the appointed hour for that strikes.

The urgent need of making pro- vision for modem lighting and fire escape facilities in the city schools was discussed last night | at a joint meeting of the City Council and School Board. the
