With the Allied alr force and ur- tillery pounding the mainland and neutralising the enemy's eounur- firs from batteries hidden in the hills, it was no risk to men or eq- uipment to concentrate small boats along the west shores oi the strait for the invasion move. . WTa-Ffituation Last Night By HAMILTON W. I-‘AIIRON (Associated Press War Analyst) New demands from the Italian people for an end to the war certainly will follow the Allied invasion of Italy, but there Is no peace In sight. For even if Marshal Barlogllifs Government could negotiate a sur- render it would fall to prevent large-scale bntilcs on Italian soil. At least l0 and maybe more German divisions are in Italy, equipped and placed for bitter fighting. Hitler's forces may be expected to fight all the way up the Boot to Northern Italy. There ls every indication they will mnke a final stand to prevent valuable air fields from falling into Allied hands. The Nazis don't want those fields made a means of bombing hltherto-unrenched in- tluatrlal sections of Germany. A campaign, that, if I00 per cent successful, could bottle up the Nazis on tho plains of Northern Italy ls under way vvitli Allied airplanes pour- IAIIIK bombs on the Brenner Pass and other escape routes through the ps. Such a campaign. however, ls hardly llkcly to succeed wholly. It could at the most only delay the supplying of Nazi troops or possibly eventually handicap a retreat, because bomb damage to the Passes’ bridges and roads could hardly be beyond repair by engineer troops. New invasion moves against the ltiiliau Boot appear logical. rind plans for search thrusts may have prompted a decision to hold back Aru- erican armies from the ltleasina crossing negotiated by British and Can- adian troops. It seems reasonable that American troops. if sent Into the Italian mainland campaign, ivill move nn to the western shores flanking Axis troops pressed from the south by the British and Canadians. Sardinia and Corsica, bnth Axis held, stnnd in tile way of invasions well by the Boot. but perhaps they could be successfully lay-passed. They would be desirable to hold but may not be worth the coat of capture. However, if the Invnslo) thrusts should turn further northward to southern France, for example, Corsica at least would be the scene of landing operations to protect invasion fleets steaming in toward the French shore.
