‘Forgotten Front’ of Italy Cited in Attack on Long Combat Duty.

By DOROTHY WILLIAMS United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Jan, 18. — Rep. Clare Boothe Luce (R. Conn.) today denounced the army's policy of keeping divisions “almost continually” in the front lines. : She urged that ground soldiers be assured relief after a “fixed tour of duty under fire.” Calling special attention to con-| ditions on the “forgotten front” in Italy, the playwright congresswoms-
