French troops at the same time, although meeting stiffening opposi- tion, held fast to gains in the Djebel Sefsouf region on the southwest rim of the Tunis-Bizerte defenses and captured more prisoners. A French communique reported by Reuters, said Gen. Giraud’s men have captured 1,000 more Axis pri; oners and killed the same number in attacks on Rommel’s west flank. Allied bombers and fighters con- tinued their attacks on Axis air- fields, but no details of late raids ‘were reported.

This will mean that your three pairs will need to be fine shoes, as enduring in their fashion appeal as in their intrinsic quality. The three pairs shown are all Delman designs and strike just the right casual note—smart enough to go with summer dresses and suits. The sandal, top left, is made with an open-back and with metal nailheads in design on sabot and bordering the platform of the heel. It is unlined and made of polished calfskin. Below is a pair of oxfords of unlined pol- ished antique calfskin with leather heel and tailored extended sole. Right is a pair of sabot tailored _walking shoes in the same kind of leather, with natural hand-glove double stitching as outline trim. 1. Fields, Tommy A.

AR N ITALY IS AFRAID OF INVASION Taking Precautions Now in Island South of Ifalian Boot LONDON, April 16.—The Berlin radio reports that Premier Benito Mussolini has declared Sicily and Sardinia, and smaller islands on Ttaly’s southern flank an area of military operations. The move is interpreted here as meaning that Mussolini is throwing up hastily erected defenses against an expected attack. At the same time, a shakeup in the Italian police is taken to mean an attempt to deal with potential slackers and saboteurs whe might impair the defense of the country. The Moscow radio said a state of emergency has been declared in Sar- dinia toupvnng discovery that an “anti-government organization is working to disrupt military measures of the Itallan and German com- mand.” Much bombed Naples also is re- ported to have been partly evacu- ated. in the ATTORNEY BATES IS IN JUNEAU AT BARANOF Harold H.
