ROME (by frontier to escape
censorship, March 12.-The Bit
terest complaints are reaching
Rome in a perfect flood, from the
country devastated by the recent
earthquake in Italy, of the inef-
ficiency with which relief is being
administered.
That there should have been
confusion and many mistakes for
a time, in the face of SO colossal
a disaster is recognized as prob
ably having been unavoidable.
Now, however, the complain
ants say, two months and a half
have elapsed and 1t Is time some
sort of order should have been
brought out of the chaos which
reigns throughout the stricken re-
gion.
or dishonesty, which was charg-
ed at first in some case, there
seems really to have been very lit
tie, If any. 1t is of the authori-
ties delay, lack of administrative
ability and failure TO grasp the
seriousness of the situation that
the complaints are received.
Rigid Censorship.
The rigid censorship which the
government has exercised over
news from the earthquake region
has been responsible for many
wild stories, however. The Ital-
ian press is permitted to print lit
tie concerning actual conditions
and correspondents of papers
abroad are strictly prohibited
from telegraphing informafion
they may gather to their various
offices.
More or less of 1t has gone out
by mail but even this method of
news transmission involves the
danger of the correspondents ex-
pulsion from the country.
