The "commandant" stayed his execution and returned him to the Aletti with a message for all twelve Italian newsmen in Algiers: leave, or die. Eleven left by the next available plane. The twelfth, Nicola Caracciolo, 30, of Milan's Il Giorno, defiantly holed up in the Italian consulate for three days ("It is my moral and professional duty to stay at my post"). Then he, too, prudently fled to Rome...
