GENERALS ATTACKED
ITALIAN PRESS
BADOGLIO'S ARREST URGED
LONDON, December 15. Dissension and mutual recriminations in Italy are the order of the day.
The Athens radio states that Mussolini's newspaper prints violent attacks on Marshal Badoglio and other generals and demands that Mussolini arrest them in the interests of the welfare of Italy.
The Athens radio also nails .down a lie broadcast by the Italian propaganda service. After the occupation of Saranta, Italian broadcasts stated that an Italian brigadier-general was killed while fighting heroically on the GreekAlbanian front. This assertion, the Athens radio says/ is proved to be a complete fabrication. According to statements made by captured Italian officers, the brigadier-general, commander of the seventh regiment of Alpini, was killed by his own troops during the rout of the Italian army.
