As the llflh Army approached the ouUWm of the Kternal City, the Germans had not yet withdrawn from the city and it was not certain as to whether they would jive up without a struccle. It took a few hours to determine whether or not the city would be spared from becoming a battle ground. Berlin said that thousands of Allied planes were soaring overhead and admitted that in land fighting the Allies seemed to have everything In the way of reinforcements to meet German counter-attacks. INVASION TALK QUIETER following Saturday's false report by the Associated Press that Allied landings had been made on the coast of France, invasion talk was quiet today. In Britain there were not even rumors of Invasion moves. Berlin propagandists have changed their tune and. are now saying that an Invasion is "far from Imminent" and "Is nowhere near." .MORE AMERICAN LANDINGS United States forces have landed on three more islands of the Schouten group to the north of Netlands New Guinea.

The thing was repeated following the dec laration of Teheran. "The truth Is that the Rus- slon people have their roots deep in the socialist tradition, and not even Stalin can throw It out," he said. Mr. MScEwen told his audi ence that the secret weapon of the Soviet people was thefact that they knew what they were fighting for. "They have known social freedom and they will not let it be thrown away lightly," he " declared. "The right to work and the right to leisure are written Into the Soviet constitution and It would be nalvo and childish to think that people who have struggled for such rights would give them up willingly. We have not got them In Canada yet." The speaker said that It was not the intention of himself or his party to try and establish socialism In Canada In the Russian way. "We arc not trying to press Soviet methods on Canadians. We only want to take those parts of socialist policy which the Soviets have found good and apply them here in the Canadian way," he emphasized. Mr. McEwen devoted the latter part of his speech to Uie behalf of Bruce Micklcburgh, Labor progressive federal and prbvlnclal candidate, who was unable to appear on account of Illness. He appealed for unity among Canadians In order to achieve social progress. A collection was taken which ylcldod $55. Following the collection a question period was held. Charles Vlzcr was chairman of the meeting.

The mop-up of the heart of the city, which was found to be 95 per cent intact, was complete by 9:15 p.m. (12:15 noon Pacific Daylight Time). North of the city planes battered the fleeing Germans, wrecking or damaging at least 600 vehicles as the Allies sought to annihilate Nazi divisions in Italy. The roads leading northeastward from Rome between the Tiber River and the Alban Hills were littered with Nazi dead and abandoned fighting equipment. When formations of the Fifth and Eighth Armies met on the Via Casilina, Lieut. General Sir Oliver Lecse, Eighth Army commander, said "the road from Naples to Rome is open." The junction was made at noon Saturday prior to Rome's fall Canadian infantrymen, with Sherman tanks and American infantry, were the first to enter the city. The Allies thenjiswept nortlnvaTdJiurjgiiit or the haltered Germans who' had dynamlleu some" installations. How much of the city was razed was not immediately learned but most of the fightig occurred in the suburban areas. Chancellor Adolf Hitler issued a bulletin saying that the Germans had withdrawn northwest of the city and General Kcssclring had submitted to the Vatican for transmission a series of proposals whereby Rome would be made an "open city." Pope Pius was reported to be holding urgent consultations with the Papal Secretary and Vati can City was reported to be scaled off from Rome behind double Swiss Guards. Allied forces continued to stream through the captured Italian capital city today, crossing the Tiber River and pressing relentlessly against the German Tenth and Fourteenth Armies as they streamed northward under the demoralizipg attacks from the Allied air forces. Flying approximately 2,000 sorties, the Mediterranean force Sunday destroyed and damaged 1,200 enemy vehicles in front of advancing Allied armies. Fighter-bombers hammered at the fleeing Gentians, leaving congested highways to the north littered with dead and wounded and smashed vehicles. The danger to Kesselring's German forces still facing the left flank of thej'ifth Army between Rome and the sea coast is steadily growing. American diplomats in Washington viewed Rome's fall as speeding the grand assault on Hitler's Europe. General Mark Clark said today that large parts of the Tenth and Fourteenth German armies had been destroyed and the, Fourteenth possibly was altogether unable to ttikc'part in further battles. Thousands of prisoners have been taken, the general said. To the southeast the Eighth Army is mopping up thousands of trapped Germans.

LABORITE SPEAKERS Unions and Other Matters Discussed but Differences Are Avoided Speakers for two factions of the labor movement got together at a meeting arranged by the Boilermakers Union In the Eagles' Hall Friday night and, adroitly avoiding debate on con flicting elements of their policies, made speeches whioh touched various angles of unionism and government. The speakers were Herbert Gargrave, C.OF. member for Mackenzie, and Tom McEwen, provincial organizer for the Labor Progressive party. Mr. Gargraves dealt generally with union work In British Columbia, and levelled criticism at the Federal labor code order P. C. 1003, which set aside the provincial Conciliation and Arbitration Act. He said that It contained many weaknesses but that these could be ironed out if labor were given a voice in their adjustment. The development of the labor movement In Canada since the beginning of the war was lauded by Tom McEwen, who said that organized labor had trebled In strength in the past four years. and was now in a position where it exercised a tremendous influence on the nation. "In the post-war reconstruction period it can still exercise a constructive influence," he said. New legislation had facilitated a widespread developri.ent In union organization, Mr. McEwen said, especially in the metals mining, lumbering, aircraft, and shipbuilding industries. He Intimated that union members must be aware of their responsiDiuty as partner in a strong movement.
