Nazi Fraus And French Charmers
According to the Berlin corre- spondent of the "Chicago Daily News," the Intest problem which faces the Nazi leaders is to con- vince the women of Germany that their husbands are not suc- cumbing to the blandishments of the ladies of France.
An article in the current issue of the "Schwarzekorps" scolds irresponsible gossipers, and offers "rellef and comfort to hearts which are unnecessarily tortured."
1 says; "No, dear German women, there is nothing in the story of the warrior from the north who suc cumbs to the charms of the deceiving siren ond, like Tannhauser in the Venusberg mountain, forgets his own home In the process."
German wives, the article adds, "know, of course, that their men would not behave improperly, but the worm maws at their hearts, and next time their men came home and do not sleep because the coffee they bring with them is too strong, then it is the charming French women who have appeared to them in their sleep."
No More Ice Cream In Italy
Ice-cream and pastry are to be barred in Italy, and the ration of oll, butter and pork is to be cut to 12 ounces per person monthly, half the previous allowance.
Rome Radio's comment was meant as comfort to the Italians for their loss.
a
"Lelters of complaint have reached me about the misuse of foodstuffs, especially of butter and fats"-gald the commentator. "Cannot บด do without pusiry? the letters ask. Certain pastry shops are the centres of attraction for the snobs of the
feudal aristocracy and feudal inter-
lectuals, and places where defeatist stories are spread. So say the letters. Palates Hit
"I feel like answering: Just you wait a little my good people, and you will see that the Government will incel your demands. The logical consequences of the restrictive use of fats has come, and pastries and fee- cream are forbidden. The palates of some people will be hit and also their special brand of irresponsibilty.
"Conversations between people who manifest pessimism in all but in their uppetites will be reduced.. It has Decome impossible row for certain degenerates to satisfy their caprices."

In Anti-Mussolini
A GROUP of Italians in the United States is now making what appears to be a serious effort to form a Free Italy body on the lines of the Free French organisation of General de Gaulle.
This movement would have two objectives: 1. Establishment in the U. S. of an anti- Fascist Italian Government which would be headed by Count Carlo Sforza, formerly Foreign Minister in Italy, and who was Italian Ambassador to France when Mussolini came to power. Count Sforza is now lecturer at Virginia University.

2. The creation of an offleers' corps which would be sent to Libya to organise a revolution- ary army among captured troops In preparation for invasion of Italy. This force; it is proposed, would train in Canada.
