Alexandrians were unhappy enough when 80,000 Calrenes Invaded their broad beaches, but when the female Invaders flaunted their midriffs In two piece suits, the home team de elded It was too much to bear. Revenge for Invasion of privacy came In an edict making the two-piece bathing costume "mamnoor" forbidden. The ladies of Alexandria say they're immoral and the fact that they wear them themselves doesn't matter a bit. Alexandrians look back wistfully on three seasons when they had their beaches to themselves. Of course, in 1940, them were air raids, and Grazian! was on the doorstep. In 1941. Rommel was threatening. But at least there were no Calrenes Now, the visitors fee that this vear is the first chance they've had for a real holiday since the war broke out. They crowd tne beaches, the bathing cabin busi ness Is booming, hotels ano boarding houses overflow. And the Alexandrians dont like it. Alexandrian police prowl the beaches exacting fines from wo men caught In two-piece suits But the ban boomeranged for homeitowners In two-piece suits are being arrested too.

Shortly after the invasion of Italy began Sir Archibald Sinclair, Air Minister, said bluntly "make no mistake about this the war is far from won" in a speech to an Air Training Corps squadron. "The war In Europe will not be won until the Allied armies are marching through Berlin," he said. "The road to Berlin !s a long one. We shall then have to redouble our efforts to help China and settle with the war lords of Japan, so it is sheer folly to talk of It not being worthwhile to Join the A.T.C. because the war will soon be over." Sir Stafford Crlpps twice warned of dangers of over-optimism sapping the nation's strength and asked that "the lightening of our anxieties . . . bring fresh determination to put our very greatest efforts Into 5var production." Sir Stafford, who is minister of aircraft production, also -ppke of the tougher phases ahead in cracking first Ger many, then Japan. In another way, Major Gwl-;ym Lloyd George, minister of fuel, set closer the tasks ahead. He warned that every military advance meant more responsi bility for Britons, responsibility in seeing that advances were not held up by lrresonpslbility at home. Coal must be supplied to Italy, he said, but he gave to Britons, who had raised pro INVASION OF ITALY Scenes like this one off the chores of Sicily were probably enacted again during the Invasion of the Italian mainland.

"Rtld JeirdM h"6f have much to say except that he had been drinking beer in a beer parlor and that he had never been hafled Into courf before. When Magistrate Brown gave him a suspended sentence of one month Ruddell apparently thought that he had been condemned to one month in Jail and It was plain that, when he signed the agreement to remain in general good conduct, that he thought he was signing away his freedom. , But when he was told that he was free to go his face broke into a relieved smile and he hurried from the court room.

Even If the ministers had not spoken out as they did, in all probability the turn of the fighting after the first few days of unopposed advances in Italy probably would have had the effect they sought to make. The viciousness of the German assault on the American 5th Army on the Salerno beaches cut short whatever celebrations were continuing and brought a lenewed realization tRat the Nazis would be a different mark than the Italians.

To War On Japan AT SWISS ITALIAN FRONTIER Oct. 15 An Italian declaration of war upon Japan is expected to follow the declaration against Germany by the Badcglio government. A Chicago dispatch to the Berne newspaper Der Bund last night quoted some Italian circles as saying that such a declaration of war by Italy could be ex pected soon.
