WASHINGTON, D. c., June 2.-An-
coma, the seaport bombarded by the
Austrians during their first raid up
en- the italian coast. forms the sub
iect Of today's National Geographic
socjety's war primer, which reads.
after Venice the most important
city along the Italian coast of the
Adriatic Sea is Ancona which was Wis
tied by the Austrian fleet Immediately
following Italy's declaration of war.
1t is also a port capable of strong
defense, its forts being thoroughly
modern and well-placed on the semi
circular heights that surround tho
city. Its harbor, the finest on the
southwestern coast of the Adriatic,
and one of the best possessed by Italy,
Las been the object of costly engi-
neering improvement from the days of
Grecian settlement down to the pres
ent day. The harbor basin is an oval
about half mile in diameter.
Venice lies 1873 miles away to the
northwestward, by direct water route,
while Rome lies 1872 miles to the south
west. The town is contained between
two extremities of a rocky promotory,
Monte Astagno to the south and Monte
Guasco to the north. On these heights
are formidable harbor defenses. The
city itself, is the headquarters for the
Italian 18th army corps. Railways con-
meet the port with Brindisi and all the
seaside cities to the south. 1t also
has rail connection on trunk lines with
Rome and with Bologna. While the
number of vessels annually visiting the
Ao4 OOl uotS LudlSI ldIIy ucCl 6dSeu, TIC
tonnage has increased somewhat. Sta
tistics for a recent year show that An
coma was port of call for 400 ves-
sells, with total tonnage of 961 ,612.
During the eighties of the last e-dt,.y
between 1000 and $500 ships visited
this port each year.
"Ancona is one of Italy's ancient
cities, and, despite its commercial
prosperity, it makes it's antiquity pain
fully evident by an unkempt, over
worn appearance, its streets being dir
ty and its houses, for the most part
dingy. Refugees from Syracuse found
ed the city about 800 B. c., and gave
to it the name by which it is known
today. Greek merchants early estab-
lished a purple factory here, and
started the place upon its centuries of
brisk trading intercourse. The city
was sacred to Venus during Roman
times, and, so, today, had the old gods
not been driven into exile, might we'll
expect to be spared by Mars, God of
War and husband of the Love God,
