,NAVALP ARADE
AT NEW YORK

New York, Dec. 27.-Guns that
awaited in vain the challenge Of
German sea power thundered yes

the Navy and the sovereign citizen

off American battle fleet, home
from the war, passed the statue of

Ten superdreadnaught battleships

of whistles shrieked welcome,
but on the shores a vast thrOng

Tenthousand sailors were hurried
ashore after the dreadnaughts had

Riding at anchor in the HuTSoh

dreadnaughts, and ships of the Hle,

In the teeth of northwester, in

Some Of the many public men Of
England who have been engaged in
war work in America, it must be
confessed, were not SO much Inn
pressed by the business methods
they found in New York as in other
parts Of she country; as, for ex-
ample, in Philadelphia, Chicago,
Washington and the various busy
cities Of the middle West, Frank
Dilnot writes in the Saturday Eve
ming Post. There was . certain
leisureliness in New York that was
piquant. The work was carried
through, but nobody was in any
hurry. A lively open-mindedness
here, as elsewhere, was a motive
force; but in everyday executive de.
tail I have heard more than one
English business man remark that
there was ,slowness alien to the
rest Of America, even as it was alien
to London.
d That hustling New York should
give this impression is indeed
strange; but the fact remains. It
was part Of the unexpectedness
which is one Of the uplifting things
in America to the European. There
has, however, not been one, whether
he be banker, ship constructor, mu.
milton expert or organizer, who has

off Italy from one Of the sources OF
supply of manufactured products. It
Is not necessary here to enlarge upon
the well known fact that Italian mar

Americans as 1t Is and was distasteful
to Italians. And it might be said In

ton and sympathetic economic rela-
tionship when peace comes.
Mr.. Francis FL. Sisson, vice presi-
dent Of the Guaranty Trust Company,
in recent article on the economic
situation of Italy points out that while
Germany before the war dominated
the foreign trade Of Italy so far as
manufactures were concerned, that
country was one of the best customers
Of the United States in raw materials
and foodstuffs. That writer also points
out that it was the adjustment of her
Industrial and commercial life to the
.burdensome new conditions that has
created an, entirely new economic fab
ric In Italy.
"Italy's devotion of her resources to
war purposes has been complete" says
Mr.. Sisson ..Her pre-eminence in the
production Of certain articles of com.
merce marked her as the chief source
of supply for similar products of a
warlike nature. Her ordinary produc-
ton Of automobiles. aeroplanes, tur-
bines and heavy oil engines has mere
~ been intensified and modified in the
direction of such standardization as
would permit quantity production"
Financially Italy Responded Well.
Financially Italy also has responded
to the demands Of war with an open
handedness that has surprised even her
self. From the first of August, 1914, to
the end of 1917 the total expenditures
of the state were $685., COO, 900. CAL
cnlating on the basis Of a monthly aver
age expenditure for thewar OF S240, co.,
300, the total cost of the war to Italy
would be more than Sc, 000, O00, 900.

Economic Difficulties.
The magnitude of this military effort
can be fully appreciated only when one
takes inn consideration the economic
structure Of the nation and the nature
and number of it's population. One
must remember that out Of 36,OOO,0OO
inhabitants in Italy at the beginning
of the war only 100000 were male.
This seeming disproportion is caused
by emigration, which was largely COM
posed Of male adults. Out Of those
100000 only 100000 were adults
economically productive. Consequent
~ the subtraction of the modified
forces has had an acute reaction on
The economic life of the nation. It Is
estimated that on an average only 100
adults remained In each town or vii
lage to provide in each case for some
320 children below the age OF fifteen.
Furthermore, the traditions Of Ital-
ian family life render the work of their
women an economic factor of less i'm
portance than In some other countries,
though 1t has been utilized to the ut
most and Is becoming more available
as old traditions give way to wars me-
}cessity.
No Troops From Colonies.
Italy got no help from colonial con.
tingents. On the contrary, the scarcity
of native troops In Italy's colonies
compelled the government to reinforce
them with troops from the mother
country. Nor has help come to Italy
through the cooperation of workmen
of neutral or allied countries. Italy,
on the other hand. sent a large con-
tingent of skilled workmen to France,
thus allowing her to release valued
elements for war. Furthermore, near
~ 100000 of our male adults residing
in America gave to this great nation
direct contribution to her economic
and military efforts,
To meet their military obligations,
therefore, the Italian people have been
compelled to cut into the most urgent
needs of agriculture and industry. Her
continuous lack of labor has made the
task of feeding the army and provid-
ing it with munitions most difficult
one
And yet Italy, lacking labor and in
dustriai development. lacking almost
entirely coal and raw materials, has
by miracle of energy been able to
create almost from nothing n power

Director italian Bureau OF Public
information.
The blood and treasure OF Italy were
freely spent in the successful effort to
sput Austria Hungary out Of the war.
While Italy's efforts were not confined
ITO the Austrian front, her contribution
Sto allied success was greater here than
fin the other places where her troops
fought the battle for civilization. Her
financial and industrial efforts have
been equal to her military effort, and
IN all these directions Italy has not
tagged behind her allies. That the
ma ture and extent Of these efforts may
be better understood by the American
public, I wish to review them briefly
lii considering Italy's military con-
tributions. let me emphasize the fact
!; that her soldiers have not confined their
4 fighting to their own SOIL Like those
OF her. allies. they have gone far afield.
They.contributed largely to the glori-
Gus victory on the Balkan front. A
4 large contingent In France first gave
q powerful aid in the defense of Rheims,
II then took part in the advance Of the
allied forces.
Italy Had $500, 900 Under Arms.
8 Since The beginning of the war Italy
I has called to the colors little less than
$500 600 men and has suffered a loss
!. OF almost 1900, 600 of them. OF that loss
nearly 3s0, 600 died In battle, and 100,-
900 from disease. Over $4,000 are
totally incapacitated, either by blind
ness, loss Of limb or tuberculosis. At
81 the present moment the strength OF
the italian army Is 4,O25, 900, including
i the class Of men born In 1890, who
have been called to the colors recent
! ". II may be said, then, that the ma
tons man-power has suffered q per-
mnnent loss OF nearly million.
But. serious as Is this loss, Italy has
Z inflicted an even greater punishment
upon the foe. In Austrian prisoners
alone she has taken approximately a
million. The Austrian loss in killed
and wounded is, OF course. unknown
/ to- u.s. but even the most conservative
1 estimates make 1t far greater than
ours. In the June offensive on the
Piase alone over 10000 Austrian dead
were left on the field.
Fighting Under Extreme Difficulties.
Aside from their achievements in
other theatres of the war, Italy's sol
diers have fought through fifteen flu
rious offensives on the Isonzo and the
Piave, inflicting terrible losses on the
foe In each. These campaigns were
& cafried on In mountainous regions and
under rigorous weather conditions that
taxed TO the utmost the genius of the
military engineers and the endurance
of the troops. The foe, when HOSTILE
ties opened. were entrenched In care
fully prepared and seemingly impreg-
anahle positions. backed by network
Of military roads and railroads. On
the Italian side were deep gorges, I'M
