I made a trip to the library and scanned the relevant pages from Miranda's 1955 book:

<A HREF="http://ilorentz.org/beenakker/MO/Miranda_1.jpg">page 152-153</A> and <A HREF="http://ilorentz.org/beenakker/MO/Miranda_2.jpg">page 154-155</A>

the references are:

[8] R. Cacciopoli, Rend.Acc.Lincei **22**, 305-310 and 376-379 (1935).
