Luxury and Poverty

The shadows of 2i years’ exist- ence under Fascism drifted away. They told me through Siseo how they had been taxed to the hill. re. duccd to dire poverty and forced to fight while the Fascist group at the top indulged in Roman luxury in Sicilian country; mansions,

I had seen this during the 5d- vance into the island-mansions that would do credit to millionaires with peasants living in squalor near them. One big house south of Vim. ni was used as a German officers‘ mess. I walked through its up- stairs rooms—as splendid as any king would occupy.

There were fine Italian linens on the tables and beds. excellent cryu. tal glass. pictures, cliinaware. cut- lery and furniture, and on tho next storey down there were serfs living with chickens and guinea pigs in stinking filth.

One correspondent remarked "what a fraud this Fascism is in Sicily." I coudn‘t improve on that.

Declaring United States were in closest con- sultation and noting in concert, he sa-ld that i! the Italian people and government continued in the war on behalf Germany there was but to make war upon Italy "from every quarter north and south, and from the sea and from the air, and by amphibious descent-s.“

Orders to this effect. he added, already had gone out w Allied commanders.

The consequence of such a. deci- 51011 by the Italians. he continued “will be that in the next months Italy will be seared and scarred and blackened from one end to the other."

Mr. Churchill said he did not doubt but that the main wish of lire Italian people was to be "quit of their German taskmasters" and to revive their democratic and parliamentary institutions.

People 0f Sicily Were Kept In Dark

B-y John A. Moroso Assouated rress War Corres- pendent

SOMEWHERE IN SICILY. July 2i -luelayedt -— (AP) —'Ialks I have had with Italians during the last few days have given me a viv- id picure o1 how hard lite was un- oer Mussolini and they have left mg with the impression that Italy will soon quit the war.

Sicilians told rne that Italy itself would be easier to conquer than this island. because the Sicilian terrain is more difficult and be- cause Italy is def-ended mainly by young soldiers. They said most of the veterans had been sent to Rus- sia and France.

The people said that when Muss- olini faced an Allied invasion he ilo-cded Sicily with propaganda and little else. Modern weapons had been sent’ io Tobruk earlier in the war and never replaced. Sicil- ians were not told that Tunisia had fallen.

Farmers in Sicily had a difficult time. although their crops of wheat olives, fruits and grapes were plen- tiful. Permitting the farmers to keep a small part of their produce. the fascists bought much of tho rest of it at '75 per cent below mar- ket. value and tcok a third of their income as well.

The peo lc were amaud at All- ied amp-h blous operations. They could not understand how the All- ies had learned in advance about undefendsd beaches and the locat- icns of batteries which were wiped out by ships shCOllng in the dark.

They said they had been told that Axis submarines were sinking all Allied ships. Thlls the appear- ance of so many ships off the sic- ilian coast had a terrific tinder- mining effect on the defenders‘ morale.
