SMALLEST REPUBLIC is
ON THE .'OUTS" WITH ITALY

ROME, Dec. 1S.-San Marino, the
smallest, but none the less one of the
most obstreperous republics in the
world is again at loggerheads with
Italy. Recently ne tiny republic
passed a law obnoxious to the Vati-
can. The latter protested but San
Marino refused to bulge. Then the
vatican withdrew its minister and i'm
mediately thereafter San Marino
withdrew its. and the two powers are
still at outs.
A little later, San Marino solicited
the gift from Italy Of two antiquated
cannon and at once increased its war
footing by ornagizing an artillery
corps Of nine members. Later 1t was
discovered that the republic was so
small that there was no point within
the kingdom where artillery practice
could be indulged in without the cam
non balls dropping in Italian territory
and thus creating hostile act. San
Marino had no sooner apologized to
Italy for this than she again started
fresh trouble.
Like France. Italy and most Of the
other powers. San Marino exercises a
government monopoly on tobacco
from the sale of which 1t receives
most of its state revenues. The gov
ernment's supply is purchased from
Italy and ordinarily amounts to q half
ton year.
In 1911, however, the San Marinose
did not chew and smoke so much as
ordinarily and San Marino purchased
from Italy only a quarter of a ton Of
tobacco. This year smoking and
chewing is more popular and San Ma.
rino has demanded Of Italy that 1t
come across with the other quarter
of ton to which 1t was entitled In
1911. Italy says It won't and San
Marino has all but said that II It

late '70's when 200 employees at the
Brooklyn navy yard worked two
