“AMiRlCA-iTALY DA "
On May 24. officially designated as
“Americadtaly Dar," let us hope that
‘the whole nation will rise up and of-
fer sincere though belated recognition
of the part Italy has played and is
playing in the. war.
For some reason or other, but cer-
Ftainly for no reason that is easy to ex»
plain, Americans in general have never
given italy full credit. That country has
fought a magnificent fight, most of the
time against beaVy odds-not so much
human odds as odds offered by nature.
She had to fight her way over almost
inaccessible mountainneasily defended
by the foe. She had to fight without
coal. without iron, without shipping.
under economic handicaps that wduld
have broken the spirit of any less do
termincd people. Once only she feil- ‘
ed to stand steadfast; and that lapse
was due not to the enemy's force and
courage, 'btli rather to his cowardly
trickery.
That lapse in redeemed. ltuly today
is standing like a rock. in some mirac-
ulous way she has accumulated all the
war supplies and equipment that she.
needsnShe is laughing at the threat of
all Austrian offensive. She has in the
field a great army, imbued with a“ spirit
second to none. She has an army in
France, fighting .along with our own.
rand is apparently prepared to place on
that front one man for every two of
ours. ‘
Italy's: war from the first has theen
dictated by .1 fiery idealism. She went
to war to leallzc freedom for Italians.
She remained in the war to win free-
dom for all races worthy of it. We
should let ourltollan comrades know
that we appreciate their courage and
sacrifice, and are proud to stand by
their slde.

MODEST GERMAN TCLAIMS
Germany doesn‘t» want much out .of
this war. Just a few trivial women
alone. Here are the chief items, as] set
forth in a document found in a cap-
tured German trench: '
Belgium is “to remain under German
military, economic and political de-
pendence.“ - N '
Germ-an colonies are. to be rt'turn
ed "with augmentation."
The great. coal nmilron districts of
northern France. grabbed by Germany
in her first dash. are to be'kept per-
manently. ' ‘.
' The French frontiers are to ‘be ad.
justed in other particulars, especially
in the Vosges. so as“ to make “them
”easier of defense."
Russia's Baltic" provinces are to be
“incorporated," and a large section of
Russia in addition ."colonlzed."
‘Roumaniu is to give Germany nearly
all. her petroleum output.‘ .
Germany is to have “more numerous
and stronger naval stations.”
"Liberty of- the.sens".is to be guaran‘
teedby allowing Germanyn commercial
fleet ‘of thsoopoo tons,jwblle' all the
Allies together are to be restricted to
10,900,000 tons-labout half of Great
Britain's present tonnage, and much
less than we shall have at the close. of
the war. ‘ ‘
,“These nut-tons who attacked peaco-
ful Germany must pay all wor chargesI
in raw material,shlp. ready money and1
territorial concessions, leaving Ger
many with only five billions (presum
ably of marks canal to onefourtb the
same number of dollars) national
debt." '
'So‘there we have the mild, generous,
terms on which Germany is willing to
iting armies andnavles. _ .
isn't it a delightful prospect?
