Europe Await Sicjnal for Revolt
Editor's note- While the world awaits the Allied assault on western Europe.
Alhed censorship has permitted a London correspondent of the United Press
to indicate the scope of the vast underground rebellion which will be touched
off behind the German lines when the Allied invasion begins, including the
fact that the •trategic plan already is in the hands of the underground leaders.
The writer of this dispatch has been assigned for several years to cover the
Underground, through its representatives with the governments-in-exile in
London.

United Press Staff Correspondent
London--UR--A gigantic strategic plan for the mobilization of an
estimated 12.000.000 guerrilla, patriots to harass the Germans behind
their anti-invasion defense lines from Norway to the Balkans has been
placed in the hands of patriot leaders, Allied sources said today.
It awaits only the signal that Allied troops have landed on the west-
ern shores to be put into effect.
For the past eight weeks, the inter-Allied high command has beamed
instructions to the continent day and night in a dozen languages.
Supplies have been pouring into
underground caverLs for many
weeks but the tempo has been ac-
celerated with the arrival of spring.
VChen these millions rise in sup-
port of the Anglo-American inva-
sion forces they will start the
greatest revolt in history. The ef-
forts of Marshal Tito's Partisans in
Yugoslavia and of the anonymous-
ly-led Marquis of France's Alpine
borderland are a foretaste of the
the day have sent his forces into
offensives in Montenegro and Croa-
tia in support of the Russian armies
driving deeper into Romania and
Poland.
Spearheads for Revolt

12.000.000 will be an estimated 500.-

Roosevelt fourth.termers bowled
over their first tangible opposition
in the Massachusetts .presidential
primary yesterday, while Pennsyl-
vania Republicans indicated through
write-in votes that Governor Thom-
as E. Dewey is their overwhelming
choice for the GOP presidential
nomination.
President Roosevelt himself re-
ceived a fair.sized write-in endorse-
ment in the Keystone state Repub-
lican primary while picking up
unchallenged 72 more pledged Dem-
ocratic delegates. Dewey is appar.
ently assured of Pennsylvania's 70
uninstructed delegates.
Incomplete returns today showed
delegates in Massachusetts favoring
renomination of Mr. Roosevelt ran
well ahead of a partial slate pledged
to former Governor Joseph B. Ely,
a fourth.term opponent. The make-
up of the 34-vote Democratic dele-
gation is still in doubt, as is that
of the 35-member Republican dele-
gatien. All delegates in both parties
are technically unpledged_
Dewey Holds Big Lead
The president's name was the
only one entered in either party
primary in Pennsylvania. But
Dewey took a big early lead in the
GOP write.in voting and held it
throughout• At one time the presi-
dent was running second to Dewey
in the Republican penciled choices
as he did in 1940.
The vote today from 5,414 of 8,-
197 precincts gave:
I. Gov. Dewey 98,484
2. Gem Douglas MacArlbur 5,982
3. Roosevelt 3,397
4. Gov. Edward Martin of Penn.
