italian experts confess that when al

mcndous drain of emigration to the
United States and South America. IL is
very doubtful whether 1.OOO.0Oc men
could be maSscd. even by taking in
every available man from eighteen TO
forty.
When the nationalist agitation for I'm :
PREVENTION was at Its height last au
tumn the Italian army WAS weak and
unprepared. Most of the deficiencies
have since been remcdicd, but the wheat
question is still serious. Prices have
mounted tremendously, rs I'm America
and to prevent further fictitious rises
the government has been compelled tc
pass law requiring the Minister %
Marine to requisition n certain number
or ships TO carry wheat from South
America. and also 20 call "A limit on

Ci the various arguments initiating
against ltaly's intervention. there is
ono that has undeniable force:
However warlikc the Italian people
as a whole have felt i'll August, they
now see plainly thnt war Is no glorious
and profitable adventure. but Il sordid
ugly, criminal, runious business for
all concerned.
They see Germany and Austria not
only lighting n long -drawn-out battle
along IL front OF 1000 miles, but also
struggling to avert a famine in food
and munitions mt home and to dispcl
the clouds OF internal disorders; they
see Belgium and Poland. Il heap of
blackened ruins, and Northern France
soaked in blood; they see the war
dragging OH in endless miles of
trenches. while the business of the
fighting nations remains virtually ut
Il standstill.
And seeing these things. it is not
surprising that the real public opinion
after six months of war is not en-
couraged to take n hand in the wretch
ed game.
and treasure by holding aloof. Such
an attitude may be mean, and perhaps
posterity will say Italy In 1916 misses
n chance of adding n profitable page to
the countrys military history. but
sense tells you Italy cannot
afford to live on dreams just now
And II sall this was true before the
AvcEzano earthquake, 1t is still more
true now that Italy has to succor tens
of thousands OF victims Of that catas-
trophe, and make good material losses
to over S40,o0o,o00.

NEW YORK. Feb. 6.-Manager
Jimmy Johnston, of the Garden. has
completed arrangements for a $1,000
accident insurance policy against loss
in the coming Welsh-Shugrue contest,
to be held at the Garden next Tues

White became suddenly III two days
before his scheduled bout with Welsh.

prospects Of $4,000 house In view.
Johnston will insure against sickness
or injury to the boxers during their
training. and as further protection all
principals in boxing matches at the
Garden will be compelled to post a
forfeit for appearance, and the club
will do likewise as q guarantee TO
stage scheduled contests.
