ITALIAN UNREST

———a

‘Underground’ Group New York Reveals Fight

Against Axis.

| By PAUL HARRISON | Times Special Writer | NEW YORK, Dec. 18.—In Sicily, a German soldier on a lonely road slumps silently under the vengeful thrust of a peasant’s knife. | In Piedmont, a power line mys-| teriously fails, and war factory wheels are stilled for hours. In Abruzzi, a Fascist militiaman, no longer able to face the contempt and hostility of his neighbors, de-, serts his post and heads for the hills. In Tuscany, a little group transcribes an American short-weve, broadcast, prints and distributes: thousands of copies under the slo-| gan: “Enough of War! Enough of. Fascism!” no Here in New York, representatives of the Italian underground are, helping to direct and finance the! movement in seething, disheartened Italy. Keeping contact} organization in an epfiny country is| a difficult and dang@roys job, but agents somehow

anage to move back and forth. Money goes in, reports come out.

Revolt Impossible

4-A: Registrants who before | induction have become 45 years | | of age since they registered. | 4-B: Registrants deferred spe- | cifically . by the law itself. O-C: Aliens not acceptable to the armed forces or who waived their rights to become citizens to avoid miliatry service. 4-D! Ministers of religion or divinity students. 4-E: Conscientious objectors available only for service in civilian work of national importance. 4-F: Registrants who are mentally, morally, or physically unacceptable to the armed forces. 4-H: Registrants who are 36 to 45 years of age.

THIS CURIOUS WORLD

IN MANY SECTIONS OF THE WORLD.

By William Ferguson

CACTUS, WHICH THRIVES UNDER THE MOST TRYING CONDITIONS IN ITS NATURAL SURROUNDINGS, IS ONE OF THE MOST DIFFICULT PLANTS FOR MAN TO GROW SUCCESSFULLY,

Naturally the rebel leaders in| Italy can do no broadcasting, so the underground depends on British| and American radio for transmis-| sion of instructions to the millions! who hate fascism and naziism. But contrary to some impulsive pleas which have been made, open’ revolt is not counseled for Italians. The U. S. office of war information | concurs in the policy of asking only | civil disobedience—now. “Active revolution at this time Is, impossible,” said Vanni Montana, a leader of the underground and al frequent radio speaker. “There are, maybe 300,000 German troops in| Italy; also about 90,000 gestapo and| administrative agents. “Without the Germans, the Fascist state would not live one hour. Even the Italian army and its officers, we hear, are mostly anti-Fas-cist. ‘Hide Food’

“But the people cannot fight the Germans. So we tell them on the radio: ‘Go slow. Be late. Make mistakes at work. Don’t pay your taxes.’ And to the peasants we say: ‘Hide your food from the Germans.’ “Those are the things that the people can do well and willingly.” A journalist, labor union official and an enemy of Fascism since its inceptiom, Montana drew a complex picture of the underground movement in Italy. From a smuggled report typewritten on very thin paper he read the names of eight active organizations, some of which were political foes of each other as well as of Fascism before the war. Now they are loosely united for opposition to German and Italian totalitarianism.

“The leaders are new people— young ones conditioned by persecution and knowing how to fool the| gestapo,” he said. “Last April a great antiwar agitation was launched in one place, and police! arrested many Socialists. But not one of them had anything to do with the underground or the propa-, ganda campaign.” Except in hot-blooded Sicily, there is little violence, reports say. But everywhere there is a war of nerves and hate.
