EUROPEAN UNION NECESSARY
Significant Speech of an italian Law
maker.

Rome, April 3.-Senator Villari. in
An address delivered before the king
and queen at the opening OF the inter-
national historical congress, made sew
eral illusions to the United States. He
said Europe was shut in between two
great powerful countries. Russia on
the east and the United States on the
west. The latter, from population
of 10000 900. had risen to 10000, 600.
and no one knew what number its
population eventually would reach.
The United States also had taken the
lead in all the works of progress and
civilization, These two forces, acting
on Europe, were likely to render neces-
sarv union of the different EurOuean
countries which would completely
change the geographical situation to
the universal advantage of Europe.
The senator added that he foresaw and
predicted the Twentieth century will
perhaps see the solution of many prob
lens.
"The mixing of the white and black
races" he continued brought about
the war of secession in the United
States and the liberation OF the ne
groes from slavery. but this has not
harmOnized or amalgamated the two
races. which hate each other now per-
