Unfortunately. from several points OF

The highest salaries ever attainable
through the civil service commission
are open to $50 expert accountants who
are needed by the government to han

The salaries are to run from s2,4oo
to $4,000 a year.
These men will form the second in

already numbers over one hundred and
which eventually will total over four
hundred. They are required for the
administration of the cost plus system
of contracts which has been adopted
in the interest OF starting immediate
production in factories wholly mex
perienced in airplane work, and in a
field where no comparative cost or
manufacturing experience has been
available.
Some of the men will be assigned to
Washington. but the majority will be

bills and will serve as q connecting

Rally to Defense Of Land.

The magnificent feature of the situa-
tion is that after the debacle-after one
army had been captured and another
badly shattered and the entire line
thrown back in disorder-that the
truth penetrated to the dim minds of
these fine men. Even today they have
not seized the situation in its entirety.
They only know that Italy has been in
vaded, and that the great Italy of the
future. for which they have hoped. and
in which they have believed with an
almost religious fervor. has been en-
dangered. They have rallied, not to the
support of any politicians dream Of ex-
pansion, not to any merchants plan for
profits. not to any militarists' scheme
of line of forts on the Alpine sum-
mits. but to the defense of their land.
when one knows the treatment to
which they have been personally sub
jected one can only revere their self

SOLDIERS Of ITALY
.:WAR IN IGNORANCE
Government Has Failed to Ex-
plain Real Purposes of
Nations Conflict.
ONE CAUSE OF DEBACLE
BIZ HERBERT COREY.

PARIS, December 15.-Dispatches
from Rome today bring the news that
the Italian cabinet has been able to de-
feat a parliamentary attempt to in
uuire into the causes for the recent
debacle. This is an excellent thing
for the cabinet.
But 1t will be a better thing for
Italy, for the allies and for democ-
racy IL those causes are made known.
For there is no hope that they will
be removed until light Is let in on
them.
The prime cause for the italian
military collapse was ignorance. The
mass OF the Italian army did not
know what they were fighting for. or
why, or what Italy had to gain. They
had no heart in 1t. no patriotic feel
3ng. no hope.
.'The Italian so1diery has looked upon
this war as blood tax imposed by
the government is the statement of
had no more liking for it than men
usually have for taxes-quite apart
from the suffering and death involved"
Peasant Is Patriotic.
Yet there is no more patriotic man
than the Italian peasant-narrowly
patriotic. perhaps. but wholly and
honestly patriotic. He is proud of
centuries of peasants, he looks down
centuries of peasant. he looks down
upon the upstarts of few genera
tions who own the land he farms.
He believes that Italy was once the
greatest nation in the world and that
1T will be again. But his allegiance
is to an ideal and not to the present
state. He has a racial. but not ma
tional, feeling.
Italy lives In compartments as no
other great state does. One is told.
sI am a Roman am no Italian"
One is introduced to this man as
Sicilian and to that man as a Lom-
bard. but never to either as an Italian.
Conditions are still of the middle ages
in this respect, when hilltop fought
against hilltop and city against city.
The organization of the Italian state Is
but the tying together of political
3agots. The lesser states preserve
their identity and their ancient antag-
onisms.

What Pope Had in View.

ALREADY in his consistorial allocu-
tior of January %. 1915, the holy father
had proclaimed before the world that
he reproved injustice. and he conde-
scended to give the Belgian govern
ment the assurance that in formulat-
ing that teprobation it was the inva-
sion of Belgium he had directly in
view.
THE honest people Of all countries
will rejoice with the Belgian govern
ment that the injustice of which Bel
GUM was the victim and the necessity
for reparation have been proclaimed,
and that the highest moral authority
of Christendom remains watchful
amidst the passion and conflicts of
men.
ut was because of the gratitude felt
on this account, which was augmented
by the numerous charitable acts OF the
holy father in favor Of so many Bel
gians, victims Of the violence of the
enemy. that the royal government has
examined into the possibility of con-
tributing in the measures depending

Before the war the Italian army was

this system of political airlocks, by

were always recruited from distant To-
calitfes. The Sicilian was sent to the
north Of Italy. The Lombard served
among the orange groves Of the south.
Their eyes were opened to the magni-
tude and to the possibilities Of their
land. Through the army g national
spirit was being gradually created.

BELGIUM REVEALS
TERMS OF PEACE
Absolute Political, Economic
and Territorial independence
Demanded by Nation.
REPLY MADE TO POPE

By the Associated Press.
HAvRE, January 24.-The Belgian
governments terms Of peace, so. far Is
they concern Belgium herself, set forth
in her reply to Pope Renedict's peace
note, made public yesterday, are. in
substance. absolute political, eco
nomic and territorial independence.
King Albert, in inclosing his reuly,
wrote a personal letter to the Pope,
which has just been published. The
letter follows:
'very Holy Father: I have taken
note. with lively sympathy and inter-
est, of the message your holiness was
good enough to send to the heads Of
the belligerent countries the 1st Of
August, and have hastened to submit
it to my government, which studied 1t
with most serious and deferential at
tention. The result Of that study has
been recorded in a note which am
happy to communicate to your holi-
ness.
'In associating myself with the
wishes Of the holy see that a. just and
durable peace may promptly put an
end to the evils from which humanity,
and particularly the Belgian people,
as rudely tried. are suffering, I beg
your holiness to believe in my f1lial
ALBERT"
This letter was dated December 81.
1917.
Note Of the Government.
The note of tho Belgian government
says:
THE royal government as soon as it
received the message of your holiness
to the heads of the belligerentS, has
tened to reply that it would study with
the greatest Difference the propositions
the document exposed in such eleyat-
ing language.
lat the same time 1t desired particu-
larly to express its lively and profound
gratitude for the particular interest the
holy father manifested in the Belgian
nation, and Of which the document was
new and precious proof.
"At the outset of his message the
holy father took pains to declare he had
forced himself to maintain perfect i'm
partiality toward all the belligerents,
which renders more significant the
judgment of his holiness when he con-
cluded in favor Of the total evacuation
Of Belgium and the re-establishment
Of it's full independence and also rec
ognized the right of Belgium for rep
aration for damages and the cost of
the war.
