THE PERQUIMANS WEEKLY, HERTFOBIV N. C, gjtlDAV. AUGUST 13, 1943 PAGE THREE LOOKING AT WASHINGTON By Hugj S. Sims, Washington Correspondent No Better Terms For Italy Surrender Imperative w. Want Ta Get Air Bases 1? W T " - Before the news of Mussolini's dis- missal, this nation was aii-oui ior "unconditional surrender." The mili tary situation was extremely favor able. There was no reason for alarm over Italian belligerency. The Unit ed Nations were set to deliver a smashing blow to the Fascist state and its collapse was momentarily expected. rpitici ciuarinn Vina not. hpftii altered 11UO otMvv " " by the difficulties of the Italians on .... 1 j. i 1 Tko Hie tne political irom at nume. nc missal or removal of Mussolini pre nroblem to the United Nations, regardless of how disrup tive it may become to Italy. Our forces have the same objective, tne destruction of the fighting power of the enemy nation, and iney snouiu resolutely pursue the goal without delay. There is a vast difference between unconditional surrender and peace on tho Kooia nf neutrality. Under tne former we would have the right to occupy Italy, use air bases and port and whatever else might assist us in the defeat of our enemies, without obligations to the ruling Italian gov ernment. If Italy is permitted to sneak out of the war on the basis of neutrality, we will refrain from dition to the regular operating ex penses of the eovernment. There is little significance in the fact that the President intimates that Army expenditures will dron trom ?bZ,OOO,OOO,000 to $56,000,000, 000 and that Navy expenses will ad vance from $24,000,000,000 to $28, 000,000,000. The figures earlier announced were only estimates and subject to cor rection. They have been adjusted to facts. This does not mean anv change in the program that was pro jected in January. Germans Fear Bombing Berlin Reported Panicky Nazi-Land Learns War The German people, constantly as sured by Hermann Goering that no bombs would drop upon German soil, are becoming terror-stricken as Am erican and British bombers drop ae- vastating explosives uoon the citiR of the Reich. The result of the aerial offensive against Germany is apparent in Berlin, where civilians have been or dered to evacuate the city lest tne Anglo-American airmen Ian the ra-n. ital in ruins like Hamburg, Cologne ana lessen. Correspondents declare that the civilian population of the German capital is "near panic" and describe conditions in the Ruhr and Hamburg as worse than ground battles, creat of the estate of Joe Weeks, deceased, tween the hours of twelve midnight late of Perquimans County, North Carolina, this is to notify all per sons having claims against the es tate' of said deceased to exhibit them to the undersigned at Chapanoke, N.

In addition, a neutral, Italy would regain certain rights as to international trade. This would be a magnificent ac complishment for the recently-hatcit-ed government. It would present us with the unusual spectacle of a na tion, going to war for aggressive and predatory purposes, completely de feated and, yet, escaping the pen alties that should be assessed against the loser of a stupendous, immoral cum hip with fate. o This does not mean that we shouio continue to wage war upon Italy if the Italian government is ready to yield upon the basis of unconditlonaf surrender, without further fighting. There is certainly no use to sacrifice the life of a single fighting man needlessly but let us be certain that we obtain our objective before we lighten the pressure upon the rem nantei of II Bucc's misguided people In fact, if we secure acceptance of the rigorous terms, we should be pre pared to deal with any Italian gov ernment that is able to deliver the goods. If the King and Badoglio are able to make a full surrender, thus giving us wh we fight Italy to ob tain, there is certainly no necessity for further fighting against the Italians. Aside from the expulsion of the Fascists we have no concern with the type of government Italians prefer in the future. If acceptance of out right surrender gives us our military objectives and leaves Italy impotent to injure peace-loving nations we shall have won our war against1 Italy. Production Saves Lives Nelson's Prediction Donald M. Nelson, chairman of the War Production Board, predicts that for fifty years after the war, there will be Americans to point out how1 ' h'0"8 a . t3Ught if a little monev could have been saved ! T ? l be. Persuaded to give up uons witn otticia s uncerfa n as rn "how long the population will be able to endure it." The frightful ness of aerial war fare is appalling even when its hor rors are visit-ed upon the populations of. enemy countries. " Despite every effort to drop bombV upon military objectives, it is impossible to avoid wounding and killing civilians who insist upon living in the midst of le gitimate objectives. j There is no reason for t-hr. nm. of Allied countries to mental over the fate of Hp ilians. Naturally, we regret the in exorable tate that brings searing punishment to women and children, but the memory of Warsaw, Rotter dam and British cities reminds us of the narrow margin by which we es caped. The German High Command, when it was in power, was not concerned with the welfare of women and chil dren in other lands. It was ruthless and indiscriminate in slamrhtjp The shattering explosions that strike terror tp German civilians are necessary in tne defense of free peo- i" " jusi xetrioution to a people w-utn appiauaea every successful ex ample of Nazi frightfulness. So long as they support their gov ernments, they invite and will re ceive heavier raids. Meanwhile, we should remember that the aerial bombardment of Ger many is bringing home to the Ger man people, as never before, the hor rors of warfare that- V,,'tK i - iuuimm nave been reserved for the home lands of tneir enemies. The devastation visited upon them proves that German soil, despite strategy ana the intention of gen erals, is vulnerable and that the saf ety of the German people cannot be assured by their rulers. This is a lesson that the people of the Axis nations must be taught if NOTICE By virtue of a deed of trust exe cuted to me by W. G.

JOHNSON, Trustee. aug.6,13. a little money could have been saved , during the war by producing a little less of this or that equipment. Mr. Nelson points out that tne worst error that can be made, dur ing a war, is to supply fighting troops with too little. Every choree is made in favor of too much rather than too little. The production chief makes a pointed argument when he calls at tention to the saving of human lives through the possession of a prepond erance of equipment and munitions. This has been demonstrated in Tu nisia and Sicily and it should be ou vious to sensible Americans. More and more it is certain that the British and American military. leaders are determined to use indus trial superiority to its fullest extent against the foe. This means the saving of lives on the battlefronts, so far as our forces are concerned. but it carries a greater threat than ever to our enemies. While armchair strategists and fire-eaters on the s home front may shout for an immediate attack all along the line, the boys who will do tne nghting are naturally interested In the support afforded by adequate irnuery, planes and tanks. In North Africa and Sicily, losses fere new to a minimum because soi iers were well-equipped and sup m ied and given the strength that tones with an overwhelming supply me weapons or war. War expenditures 97 Billion For Year Actual expenditures for war, dur- tne fiscal year which ended June 11843, amounted to $72,108-862.- according to figures made public President Rnniwvalt W the present fiscal year the na- i nas allotted $97,000,000,000 for prosecution of the war. - ' public debt is expected to d- , ...
