Italy Will Fight
to End of War
(Continued from Page 1)
"Churchill asks Italians, 'How
long wvill this last?' I, Mussolini,
answer in a most solemn way: 'For-
ever until we have achieved com-
plete victory.'
"If I had listened to that hyena
Roosevelt, he would have thought me
a 'chump.' Churchill says my empire
has bone. I reply that the last word
has not yet been spoken."
In his longest speech of the war
and the most urgent, -,apparently,
ince the Italian stab in the back of
France on June 10, 1940, he spoke
bombastically of the exploits of the
Caesars and said for Italy it now is
the question:
"To be or not to be . ..
The Italian Premier flayed Presi-
dent Roosevelt and took Prime Minis-
ter Churchill to task as one "intoxi-
cated" on tobacco and liquor, but he,
got .around to agreeing with Mr..
Roosevelt's chtrge of long ago that
Italy had stabbed France in the back.
"Let us admit that we stabbed
France in the back," Mussolini said,
"but this is only one stab in the back
compared to a hundred stabs France
has made on Italy in history. France
always has been arrogant . ."
In his 81-minute speech to the ap-
plauding Chamber of Corporations
and to millions of bomb-conscious-
Italians huddled about loudspeakers
in the squares of the threatened land,
Mussolini ranged from justifications
of Italy's entry into war to a rather
lightly considered determination to
see it through.

FDR Grants Control

President Roosevelt gave Secretary
Ickes sweeping new powers over the

cial authority to control oil and gaso-

The announcement .apparently sig-
nalized the final abandonment of
any plans to shift Ickes to the Labor,
Department and make him Adminis-

was loath to take that double post.

At the State
"The Big Shot," Warner Bros.' new
film which opens at the State Thea-
tre today, has a story and star com-
bination which looks like sure-fir(
screen entertainment.
Tough is a meek word to describlx
the type of role played by Humphrey
Bogart in this film. He's cast as E
three-time loser who can't go straigh4
because of his record and who i,
afraid to qp anything crooked be-
cause next time it's up the river foi
keeps.
He ducks the police like a plague
and tries to give equal attention tc
his former cohorts, but the effort i
useless. He finally allows some of hi
former pals to persuade him into act-
ing as the "brains" in an armored cai
stick-up.-
Blond Irene Manning, a newcome3
to the screen, is cast as Bogart's ex-
girl friend who keeps him from going
through with the stick-up, events
which follow are typical of a Bogart
thriller.
