pendent upon the outside world and
particularly America for raw ma
terials. She must have American coal
to keep her factories in operation, and
great quantities OF iron and steel for
war manufactures.
Lumber and selected ha rdwoods also
are needed from America for war con-
struction work. Chemicals are needed
for the production of high explosives.
and great quantities OF cotton must
be imported from this country for
making smokeless powder and cloth
ing for the soldiers and the civilian
population. Copper, brass and rubber
also must be had for war purposes.
In Need Of Grains.
In the matter Of food, Italy Is per-
haps better off than the other allies,
but she still is in want of great guam
titles of grain. The Italians are fond
of Indian corn, which is the base OF
the famous national dish 'polenta."
Any surplus corn produced in America
| would be gratefully received In Italy.
| ltalys financial problems resemble
| those of the other entente allies. AL
ready she has felt the great benefit Of

of her population.
