(Delayed)\u2014(/P) \u2014Unofficial reports in Ankara today said the German Government had delivered a formal protest to the Turkish Foreign Office accusing the Turks of failing to shew complete neutrality during the Alliée attack on the Dodecanese and other Aegean islands.The Germans complained, it was said, that Turkish anti-aircraft guns fa\" ' to shoot at transport planes using the coast as a cover and that British military personnel left for hie islands in small boats from the Turkish shores.Observers reported yesterday that British troops on Kos were landed in three days of intensive air operations, during which flights of -30 to \u2018if U.S.air transports were repeatedly sighted fom the Turkish coast.One of these crashed on Turkish soil.Admiralty Says Six

(Delayed)\u2014 (TPi \u2014German strength is spread dangerously thin along the seagirt, mountainous \u201cunder- belly\u201d of Yugoslavia\u2014and the Nazis know it.More fiction than truth has been prmted in the outside world about military events in Dalmatia.When twelve Italian divisions disintegrated as a fighting force on September &, claims that the partisans controlled all the coast were fantastic, but the fact remains that two German divisions had their hands more than full in attempting to restore the situation.Here is the latest information, made available to me by the commander of this partisan brigade headquarters: The Italian port of Trieste, terminus of trans-European rail lines into the Danube basin, continues to bo in tight German grasp.Street disorders occurred September 9 af- ter the Italian armistice became ; known, but the Nazis never let the.partisans make a real fighting bid.I Partisans recruited from Sloven-; inns of the countryside exercise au-1 ! thority over most of the Italian per,-' insula province of Giulia, between Trieste and Fiume.The Germans, however, are in the coastal towns of Parenzo and Rovigno, and may be expected to take back more of Giulia if they are seriously harassed, Fiume was a brilliant triumph for the Partisans.Disarming the large Italian garrison, the Partisans outfitted hundreds of new volunteers with fascist-made rifles ami machine-guns.The Germans, Italian Fascists and Croatian Ustachi counter-attacked.Bitter street fighting developed, The Partisans were compelled to retreat from both Fiume and nearby Susak, but.all evidence indicates that they fought bravely.Between Zara and Fiume along the base o[ the bald, gray mountains, almost all of a series of fishing villages pay allegiance to the Partisans.South of Zara

on the job today, following yesterday\u2019s decision to resume work on the instructions of President Josenh Ryan, New York, of the parent International Longshoremen\u2019s Association.They started back to work at 1 p.m.yesterday, and by nightfall nearly 800 were reported at their posts.Dissension was reported in their ranks, however, with threats coming from \u201ccard members\u201d that they would pull away from the union and form an affiliate of the C.I.O.These stevedores are temporary members of the union who came to work on the waterfront since outbreak of war, although they pay heavy

last autumn apparently will be continued unchanged into their second year beginning November 1, for there has been no indication the Government plans any alteration of policy, informed sources said today.The original wartime alcoholic beverage order, announced last December 16 by Prime Minister Mackenzie King but retroactive to November 1, provided that sales of beer during the year ended October 31, 1942, must be cut to 90 per cent of sales in the previous 12 months.Wine sales were cut to 80 per cent and spirits to 70 per cent.The order was to bo in effect until November 1, 1943\u2014but last month it was amended by inserting: \u201cAnd any year thereafter during continuation of the present war.\u201d Investigations made by Excise Revenue officials have convinced them the restrictive orders have been \u201ccompletely effective\u201d so far, a departmental spokesman told The Canadian Press.He said check-ups of withdrawals from bond and purchases by Liquor commissions proved that the reduction in sale of alcoholic beverages contemplated by the order has beet: effected, and there has been no indication of increases in production of illicit liquors.The Canadian Temperance Federation at its meeting in Ottawa last week praised the restrictions but said there still was room for improvement.The Brewers\u2019 Association is meeting in Winnipeg this week and will decide whether to press the Government for any changes.A meeting of representatives of the Provincial Liquor Commissions was held recently in Montreal and it is understood the chief complaint there was the wide variation in the amount of spirits which a liquor permit holder can obtain in the different provinces.In British Columbia, for example, a permit holder can get only 13 ounces of spirit a month, whereas in Quebec he can buy 80 ounces if liquor stores have stock on hand to provide it.One explanation advanced here is that purchases by some liquor commissions in the basic period were below normal and their quotas now were frozen to 70 per cent of the reduced amount.Other commissions had purchased above-normal supplies in the basic period and got j correspondingly more under the rationing plan.It is understood that each province has been getting its full quota : as provided under the Order-in-: Council.But in some provinces the number of permit holders in pro-! portion to total population and in j proportion to the amount of spirits j bought in the basic 12 months is much higher than in others.This, officials said today, is the chief cause jof variation between provinces in , the amount of spirits a permit holder ! may obtain in a month.A Canadian Press survey showed that in British Columbia, where the 1941 census gave a population ot .about 818,000 liquor permits Issued between January 1 and August 31 totalled 602,346.The individual quota there is 13 ounces of liquor a month, or two dozen pints of beer, or one gallon of domestic wine or : one-half gallon of imported wine.In comparison, it is estimated unofficially that there are 750,000 per-hit holders in Ontario- only about 1150,000 more than in British Colum bia, although the Ontario poluation i.s about 3,787,000 compared with British Columbia\u2019s 818,000.The : Ontario quota is much higher than i the one at the coast\u201440 ounces of spirits monthly plus 18 quarts of beer monthly and 52 ounces of wine a week.Numbers of liquor permits issued in the other provinces are not avail-j able, NEW JAP OFFENSIVE IN CHINA CHECKED Chungking, Oct.7.\u2014'(TP)\u2014Chinese forces,

Canadian Press War Correspondent With the Eighth Army in Italy, Sept.29.(Delayed) '(P/ Canadian troops moving forward on the heels of withdrawing Germans were amazed to find themselves in a sort of story book land, picturesque and quaint.The war on the Canadian sector has been quiet since the start of the Italian invasion and the troops have had time to observe surroundings; which under fighting conditions they see.only from a soldier\u2019s point of view.But for the most part in Italy they have been able to look at the country and its people through tourist eyes.The area in which they were operating before the fall of Foggia was a hodge-podge of modern civilization and backward civilization many generations removed.Most of the country was greener and more hospitable than the barren stretches farther South, but for every town with flashy new apartment buildings there were a half dozen hill-top settlements mouldy with age.The headquarters of a patrol commanded by Major Dick Danby of Vancouver was situated for a time in a valley beneath an ancient town sitting on a hill like a tarnished 1 crown.The troops under his coni ; mand lived in a vineyard on the slope 1 of the valley and mixed for trading ; purposes with villagers who acted as though they had never seen soldiers.Children scurried at the sight of jeeps moving through the narrow stone-cobbled streets and women in Sunday dress of pale blue skirts, dark blue blouses and bright red wool shawls peered half-frightened from low doorways within arm\u2019s reach of of passing traffic.The soldiers traded harr-tack for ! eggs which were plentiful in an ex-! change which was extremely satis-: factory to both parties.One town | where eggs could be obtained in : seemingly unlimited quantities was named \u201cEggtown\u201d by the troops.Most of the trading was done with black moustached men wearing black hats, black vests, black trousers and old black boots.They paraded up and down the steep,

On the Adriatic side of the Peninsula the British 8th Army, of which the Canadian 1st Division is a part, also made progress, forcing similar crossings over the Biferno River.A dispatch from Allied headquarters to the London Daily Express mentioned the Canadians, saying they were \u201cbattering at a certain town\u2019\u2019 from which they would be able to \u201cleap ahead\u201d once it fell.Adding weight to the Allied attack was the air force which continued to range far ahead of the attacking troops to smash at enemy communication lines and supply dumps.A devastating attack was made on the strategic rail centre of Bologna, on the Brenner Pass line 180 miles below the German border.Canadians In Continued from Page 1.^\tNOW UNTIL SAT.i FUN - PACKED ENTERTAINMENT 1 WITH TOP-CAST, MERRY MUSIC Hnd I COMEDY GALORE!

Continued from Page 1.\u201che possesses and exercises to the public good the gifts of great judgment, sympathetic tact, modesty and wise understanding.\" Dr.Cyrus MacMillan, Dean of the! Faculty of Arts and Science, recalled the history of the University dating back to the original student body of twenty when teachers\u2019 salaries were paid in part by firewood \u201ccut from the abundant groves\" on the McGill estate in what was then farmland outskirts of Montreal but what is now a densely populated residential area.\u201cHere for a century students have pursued scientific truth not for commercial gain but for the benefit of mankind,\" Dean MacMillan declared.He said that unity was an outstanding tradition of early McGill days and was an outstanding characteristic of its history.\u201cOne of the greatest defects,\u201d he said, \u201cof our national life is unreasonable prejudice whUh this college has always endeavored to dispel.For we are in a strategic position\u2014at the junction of two great racial streams of culture, the two that have made our common country great.\u201d He said that McGill men had gone forth to do honor to their University.\u201cIn any capacity where service was honorable and useful they have rendered it freely and have built a superstructure of influence on the educational foundation laid here.\u201d Dean MacMillan spoke of the University at war, and the students who had joined the colors.\u201cThey were not warriors.they are our modern St.Georges, risking all in their determination to slay the dragon that has fouled the earth.They were true to our highest traditions of service and sacrifice.To them we owe a debt which must be paid at any cost.For they have bought freedom for the colleges of the world.\" Dr.Cyril F.James, the Principal, announced that the Board of Governors had created a special committee, composed of Governors and members of the University Senate, \u201cto survey the needs of this institution and prepare a definite statement of the things which we should now do, in order that McGill may be splendidly fitted to make a maximum contribution to the development of Canada during the years of reconstruction that will follow the conclusion of the present war.\u201d He also announced that J.W.McConnell had been elected Chairman of a Finance Committee \u201cexploring ways and means by which funds can be provided to meet the University\u2019s needs.\u201d He reviewed the needs of the University.He said a substantial increase was required in the endowment funds to enable the University to establish a higher scale of salaries for several of the outstanding chairs.Additional endowments were needed for enlarging the teaching staff in departments now overworked.A larger revenue was needed to spend in the provision of scholarships and bursaries to enable the University to attract from all parts of Canada students of outstanding ability.There was need for an extension of the Redpath Library and the erection of a mining and geology building must be considered.Reconstruction of the Engineering and Chemistry Building was another requirement.McGill also wanted greater residential accommodation and a swimming pool.He spoke of the birth this month of the School of Pysiotherapy \u201cas an innovation of an entirely different kind, providing much-needed facilities for the training of technicians essential to the rehabilitation of wounded men returning from Overseas.\u201d \u201cIf we are to heal the wounds of mankind and attain in very truth the freedoms of the Atlantic Charter,\u201d Dr.James said, \u201cwe shall need large numbers of trained scientists who can adequately meet the material needs of socity and outstanding students who can progressively extend, through the researches in their laboratories, the power of man over his environment.We shall also need men and women filled with the tradifion of the humanities, wise in the knowledge of men and history, to search out solutions to the problems of national and international political organization.\u201d At another address to the graduates society, Dr.James deplored the attitudes of some persons, who he said, foresee \u201ca steady growth of physical, biological and social sciences which will force out of the university the ancient diciplines of philosophy, language and literature \u2014while geography and history, we are told, must become, social science if they are to survive.\u201d He said there was little evidence to him \u201cthat science has added a single cubit to the spiritual stature of humanity.If we are to attain a better society after this war has finished, we shall certainly need to use all of the power that science has given us in regard to material things\u2014but we shall also need that wisdom and spiritual strength which comes from quiet communion with great minds,\u201d MOUNTBATTEN ASSUMES POST AT NEW DEHI i Original Leader of Famed Commandos Takes Command of Southeastern Asia Theatre of War.New Delhi, Oct.7.\u2014 W\u2014Admiral Lord Louis Mountbatten, Allied Com-mander-in-Chief in Southeast Asia, arrived today by plane at the New Delhf airport to take over his new post.Wearing a semi-tropical Royal Navy uniform Admiral Mountbatten was met by a large gathering of British, American and Chinese officers.Original leader of the famed Commandos and cousin of the King, Admiral Mountbatten is the first British officer to be placed in supreme command of Allied forces in an entire theatre of war.His appointment was announced August 26

Burma.As defined by unofficial sources in London, Admiral Mountbatten\u2019s command ranges from the waters off Madagascar East to Sumatra and spans French Indo-China, Thailand, Malaya and Burma.Geographically, the Southeast Asia theatre has been defined as stopping at a line running South from Indo-China through the China Sea, passing between Sumatra and Java.Responsibility for all the

thousand Italian troops were in Split when the Badoglio Government formally quit the war.The Partisans swooped into the city and stripped the Italians of all arms.A number of anti-Fascist engineers^ artillerymen and signal experts in the Italian ranks volunteered for the Partisan force, and were accepted because the Partisans needed instruction in operating confiscated Italian equipment.Three small transports sent by the Italian Navy to evacuate troops were caught at anchor in the harbor and one wrae sunk.The Italians, who probably suffered 1,000 casualties, got 2,000 men away on the surviving vessels, but left 6,000 to shift for themselves in the German-Partisan battle zone.A column from a German division was ordered ot move upon Split.As the enemy neared Split, Ustachi sympathizers, approximately 700 strong, suddenly turned upon the Partisan garrison with Italian weapons which the Partisans themselves had distributed.After hard skirmishing all the Partisan troops withdrew into the country.On the coast 30 miles South of Split the Germans are maintaining troops in the seaside town of Makar-ska, but the entire mountainous hinterland is ruled by Partisans and their high officers have a field command post in an almost-inacceseible canyon there.The post is in wireless communication with Drug, Josip (Tito) Broz's army headquarters in the heart of Bosnia.The Germans are frantically trying to keep the railway to Belgrade open against repeated guerilla raids and are rigidly guarding the coast from Dubrovnik to Boka Motorska (Bay of Catarro), which potentially is one of the greatest naval anchorages in the world, Boka Motorska would be an ideal acquisition for the Allied Navy, but the fact that it is in enemy hands is blamed by the Partisans upon Gen.Draja Mihailovic\u2019s cautious Chet-nicks who were responsible for defending it.A feud as bitter as any in the ferocious history of the Balkans burns between the Partisans and the Chetnicks today.The Partisans allege they have documentary evidence that Mihailovic was financed and armed by the Axis, while they themselves were fighting the Germans, Italians and Ustachis with with little more than bare hands.The Partisans that Mihailovic stands merely for the restoration of the Karageorge monarchy, Serbian hegemony over the South Slay people, and continuation of the regime which fled from the country to safety abroad.\u201cWe want no king, we want democracy,\u201d Partisans told me.\u201cThe Germans have not a big army in our country,\u201d brigade officers declared to me,.\u201cWhen the Allies come to help us,\" the Germans will be struck by four winds from all sides, Then all Yugoslavia will be free in two weeks.\u201d The following quotations are supplied by
