THE LAST EXCUSABLE BELLIG-
ERENT.
To persons of neutral mind. italy to-
day presents a curious and not very
admirable spectacle. Most Americans,
perhaps. look on her “preparations to
enter the war with tolerant acquies-
cence. They feel that her participa-
tion will not really change the cur-l
rent of events, but will make the end:
come quicker. But even those 11‘l1o!'
believe ituly may thus be acting for:
the best interests of the world are in
site hot little credit for her
cliued to’
conduct.
The plain fact is that ‘ltaly is play-
ing a role which history will probe-l
hit (all

.Austro-lluncat'y doubtless felt

ed. it she had maiptained neutrality.
she would have come through the
war with honor unsullied and would
have set a noble example to tthe
offense, without pretending to aven-
ge a wrong—unless it be ancient,
half-forgotten wrongs-Altai can win
her no foreign praise.
The unaminity of [taly for the war
is half calculating statesmanship
that does not feel itself obliged to
weigh moral considerations, and half
the enthusiasm of an unthinking po-
pulace drunk with the false wine of
militarism.
Modern ltaly has the reputation of
never having made a diplomatic mis-
take. its people are not yet. sufficlo
ently used to their new freedom and
nationality to feel the responsibility
of it. The nation is dreaming of its
ancient glories when Rome ruled Eur-
ope. The world has despised ltaly, her
youth revived will show them wheth-
er she is to be scorned, or whether
she is a world-power! So she will
seize what she wants of Austria, as
she seized Tripola but lately.
And to gain the husk of territory,
she will sacrifice the kernel of do-
mestic development and presperity.
The money the war cost her would
suffice to'finance steamship and rail
road lines. to create government
banks. to dredge, rivers and harbors,
l0 build docks and warehouses, to
open mines and erect factories. Iler
banking, industry, transportation and
the
commerce today are largely in
hands of foreigners. Yet she turns a-
way from these opportunities for
peaceful. productive conquest to
squander her borrowed ~monev and
her wealth of young manhood in :1
way that makes it hard for her best
,friends to defend her honor.
