International observers believe that this widespread disregard of the basic defense regulation indi- cates sabotage of the Italian war machine and a lack of enthusiasm for the war on the large percentage of the population. The Italian newspaper Alcazar said today that help frdbm the United States could not possibly arrive in time to save the Allies, and would not be of help to any of the peoples of Europe. The news- paper sarcastic remarked that the Allied Armies are made up largely of Canadians, Australians and negroes from France's African colonies. hundred > TOETRY, SWEET MUSE REDLANDS, Cal. — When Dr Lawrence E.
