BY ALICE ROME.
Ited Press san Correspondent

United Press Staff Correspondent
ROME. Nov. 23.-(By Mail to New
York; The homely Song of the
Shirt, has become today symbolical
of Italy-land of melody. IL is not
in the houses of the poor that this
stitch, stitch, stitch, from morn till
night" has become the watchword.
The click of the knitting needle
the hum of the sewing machine. the
snip of scissors are heard in the
grand saloons of the aristocratic and
the nobility with significance which
indicates but one thing-ltalys ul-
innate participation in the great Eu-
ropcan war
ltaly's women have given evidence
OF this expected entrance into the
field of battle in the near future.
While ltaly's new cabinet under
Premier Salandra is steadily advanc-
ing toward the recognized and in
evitable participation, the women are
forming a phalanx of their own,
arousing every stratum of society to
action.
The Duchess d. Aquitara Craca-
ciolo has accepted the presidency of
a committee of aristocratic women
who are openly calling upon all wo-
men of Italy TO come to the aid OF
their countrys soldiers with the in
dispensable help of warm clothing.
The very class of supplies demand
ed is significant of Italy's planned en-
trance into the war drama. For il
portends battle in the north in Trieste
and TRENT. Indeed the winter sup.
! plies sound significant note. The
/ women of Italy, high and low. are

| cutting and sewing heavy wooler
shirts and underwear. demonstrating
conclusively the fact that the arm,
is being prepared for war in tn,
mountains of Northern Italy where 4

The present social season which is
on the eve of opening has given indi.
cations already of its tendencies
Dansants, as benefits for raisinl
funds toward this preparation for war
are being planned. All of the salon,
of the white aristOcracy" will b,
open to this end.
What was predicted as a dull socia
season will undoubtedly be as ami
mated if not joyous swing to thi
sinister shadow of war looming omin
ously as goad toward immediate ac
tivity.
The government has prohibited ex
portation of gauze and all cotton stui
suitable for bandages This materia
is utilized by the women in thei
work today-as we'll as the supple
of woolens. AS a result of the ope
entry of the italian women into tn
field of labor for their own soldier.
all similar efforts for nations alread
at war are being discouraged.
AS is characteristic of all undertab
ings where pocketbooks must be open
ed, Americans are being called TO tn
aid of Italy. In the hotels frequente

Great interest has been shown among
American and English citizens Of
Rome in aiding Belgium and Sergia.
but an earnest plea has been made to
turn these supplies from the two war
ring countries to italy Cards are
sent out, personal visits made and
many efiicacious ways are devised to
get charitably inclined Americans to
work for Italy. And although the war
has caused a general exodus from
Italy, there are many Americans for
whom even the terrors of war are not
strong enough to deprive them Of
their accustomed winters in Rome
and Florence.
The work of English and American
women in behalf of servia has met
with a significant setback Not that
Italy looks with disfavor upon this
work. but the needs of the country
itself in an hour when gauze and ban
dage material is at premium, have
called forth decisive action in regard
to prohibited sales. Whatever sup
plies go to warning countries have
been purchased privately and secret
ly by women desiring of aiding the
suffering Seryians.
In Rome especially is womens work
at fever heat. The ardent ladies of
the nobility and the aristocracy do

heights TO beg the aid of any foreign

ing is discussed in social circles with
the same viyacity as this impending
war. Society practically uses its
prestige to fitch from the fingers Of
the leisure classes of non-combatine
nations, the helmets and scarfs which
the charitably inclined are making
The fact that a public plea, signed
by the Duchess D'Acquara. has been
made not only through letters, but
through communications to the news
papers reflects the serious aspect of
conditions as seen by the aristOcracy.
That Italy is aroused thoroughly by
its womens call for aid in behalf OF
the soldiers has been evidenced by the
way men are flocking to their sup
port. One prominent man has replied
to the duchess appeal with note en-
closing thirty lire. He states that
while women are making helmets,

send funds for the cause
