tapani continued. they will have to
call to the colors 100000 men.
"Italy is the only country which
has conquered in Europe more than
1000 square miles of enemy's territory
with a population OF neary 100000
people. Italy has never changed her
commander-in-chief or its unity Of
action, never failed yet in any Of her
moves. She has gone slowly but con-
stantly forward.
Italy, also, has 4,O00.0OO men; ano
when America will give her its full
cooperation she will open the way
to Berlin. through the south boundary
of Germany"
Regimental Maj. Cattapani explained
on maps the only possible way Of
attacking successfully Germany
through the conquering of Austria
and the advancing of the Italian
armies through Bavaria and SaXony.
Such a move would compel the Ger
mans 10 withdraw half Of their forces
from the Western front, rendering
possible the breaking through" of
the allies.
The lecturer disclaimed any attempt
OF prophecy and based his reasoning
on facts. lie further demonstrated on

he said the allies will have TO bring
