ROME (AP) - Italian police laun-
ched new sweeps yesterday in Rome
and in Genoa, where they arrested two
more suspected leftist extremists, but
again failed to turn up any trace of Aldo
Moro or his Red Brigades terrorist ab-
ductors.
In Milan, two gunmen shot and woun-
ded in the legs Dr. Diego Fava, 52, em-
ployed by the government to check on
workers calling in sick. The Red
Brigades did not immediately claim
responsibility. It was the fourth
"kneecapping" in five days and the
Brigades took responsibility for the
others.
THE KIDNAPPERS of Moro, a five-
time former premier, kept silent for the
third day. Speculation ranged from
hope that he was still alive to fear that
his death would be announced at a
symbolic moment such as next Sun-
day's local elections around Italy. ti
Police manned roadblocks and made
house-to-house searches near the
Vatican, at Rome's central train station
and in streets of the capital's historic
center.
In the northern port of Genoa, 500 of-
ficers joined the hunt that led to the
arrest of two more leftists. That
brought to 28 the number picked up sin-

continues
ce a message attributed to the Red
Brigades announced Friday they were
"carrying out" the death sentence im-
posed on Moro, the 61-year-old
president of the ruling Christian
Democratic Party.
AUTHORITIES HAVE described the
arrested persons as "flankers" -
meaning supporters - of the Red
Brigades, the feared urban guerrilla
band whose membership and
organization is shadowy. But police
have not said whether any of the
arrested have direct links with the
gunmen who kidnapped Moro on March
16 after killing his five bodyguards.
The 26 persons picked up during the
weekend were charged with member-
ship in an armed subversive gang. A
leftist union at Rome's Policlinico
Hospital, two of whose members were
among those rounded up, issued a
protest calling them "hostages."
Since Moro's abduction, police have
arrested at least 40 persons but only one
is known to have been directly involved
with the Brigades. He is Cristoforo
Piancone, wounded in Turin after an
ambush squad killed a prison guard.
THE LAST message from the kid-
nappers did not specify that Moro
actually had been killed. The baffling
wording has spawned new anguish for
the nation and a variety of theories
about his fate.
Italian officials said the silence could
mean that Moro is still alive and that
the Red Brigades, frustrated by the
government's refusal to release 13 im-
prisoned terrorists in exchange for his
life, are holding out for some con-
cession.
