GUNS HEARD IN BOLOGNA
LONDON, October 5.
"The deep mutter of Allied guns is heard still more plainly in Bologna today as the Fifth Army advances from its position 15 miles from the city," says the "Daily Mail" correspondent. "But the citizens of Bologna are listening only from behind shuttered, locked homes, because of the exchange of bullets daily and nightly between Germans and patriots. "The patriots have already paralysed the railway linking the city with the industrial north, making it useless as a channel of supply for the German garrison. The patriots on the plains east of Bologna have killed or wounded between 300 and 400 Germans in the past week, diverting hundreds of German soldiers ■ from the main struggle."
