Italian minister OF war, speaking on
the military situation in Italy. said
miracle had been accomplished In that
country, which for twenty years has
maintained military organization
merely for peace, but now has one OF
the most efficient war machines. The
change was remarkable, he said. Great
Britain has faced the same problem
and tho possessing greater resources.
was even less prepared than Italy. The
Italian army was said to be superior
proportionately to that Of the German
army at the beginning of the war.
Men Anxious to Fight.
Eagerness Of the soldiers con-
centrated along the frontier to begin
action Is so great that their officers
are compelled to hold them closely in
check.
In view Of the extensive preparations
which have been made the question Is
asked with increasing frequency why
Italy does not enter the war. Men with
authority say the majority OF the peo-
pie prefer and the government still
hopes to obtain territorial concessions
from Austria without a rupture of
friendly relations.
The weather in the Alps also is to
be taken into consideration. The snow
in the mountains is deep and the
passes are closed by snow and Ice.
