Rome Paper Criticizes Allies’ Ways in Italy
The Italian Action Party newspaper Italia Libera denounces Allied armies as an "elephantine bureaucracy" in a July 27 article. It accuses authorities of imprecision and greed, notes Italians’ servility and petty ambitions, and claims the Allies pursue luxury and moral compromises while exploiting requisitions and wages.
