Pursuing Fleeing

German Troops
ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN
NAPLES. June 7. — <AP>—Fifth
Army infantrymen continued to
chase Nazi Field Marshal Kessel
ring’s flee ng army, and have
punched their way north of Rome
to a point only five miles from
Lake Bracchiano.
A German communique said:
“The allies have succeeded in
achieving a major break
through, in the German line on
he coastal road west of Rome.”
The report continued:
“Allied fo-ces have aga n
launched a big attack, by super
ior infantry and tank forces, and
another column has driven
northwest of Rome, after cross
ing the Tiber river, and are still
forging ahead through our rear
guard pa'rols.”
General Alexander, in a broad
cast to the Italian patriots, said:
s “In less than a month, the
strength of the German armies
will be broken.” • ^
Alexander urged the patriots
to rise against the Nazis and do
all in their power to sabotage
enemy communications, and to
hinder Kesselring’s efforts to dis
engage his troops and retire
northward.
19 Stewardesses
Now With Pan
American Lines
Twelve new flight stewardesses
have been graduated from train
ing school in Miami and are now
serving on Clippers of the Pan
American World Airways System
on the international airways to
the south.
The new class, which finished
training at Pan American Field
this month, brings to 19 the total
number of girls who have won
their wings and are serving as
stewardesses on Pan American’s
Latin American Division. An ad
ditional class of 10 will begin the
five-week course on June 1.
For more than 15 years of in
ternational operations Pan Amer
ican used all-male flight crews
and only recently turned to stew
ardesses on the shorter runs after
the draft and the manpower sit
uation had depleted its staff of
trained stewards. Meanwhile, the
first seven girls to qualify on the
shorter runs from Miami to Ha
vana, Nassau and Merida in Mex
ico have been assigned to longer
flights to Balboa and Cristobal

>uilt To Alaska
WASHINGTON. D C„ June 7
—iAI’>—Stating his belief 'hat
“some day" Congress should in
vestigate the Alaska rrtilitary
road project, Representative En
gel, a republican of Michigan,
spoke on the hearings of the mili
tary appropriations bill for the
fiscal year starting July 1st.
The testimony was made pub
lic today with the introduction
of ‘he bill to the House.
Brigadier General Worsham,
Army Engineer Corps, testified
the project cost $140,000,000 to
date lor the 1,428 miles of gravel
road.
"The cost is around $100,000
per mile." Worsham said. “Men
working on the highway under
commercial contractors were
guaran'eed 240 hours per month,
and if they didn’t work that
much, they got paid for the to
tal.”
The general continued:
“The lowest wages paid was
$1.10 per hour, and included
—
housing, bu’ the men paid >2.00
per day subsistence. The high
est rate paid for laborers was
$1.75 per hour.-’
“Engel was he man who guar
anteed the 240 hours, and wage>
for from four to 20 months.,’'
Worsham said. “The original road
was construeed by army engi
neers, while the Pubi c Roads
Administration constructed the
present road with civilian con
tractors, but under the supervi
sion ot army engineers. ”
Much of the testimony was not
included when the report was
made public.
