Plenty of Versatility

The growth of the soldier actor div
sion of the entertainment department
has been a phenomenon. A story is told
of one of Shcrman's officers who during
the march to Atlanta came upon an
abandoned locomotive which had been
put out of commission by the retreat
ing Confcderatcs. Lining up his men,
he called for volunteers TO make the
necessary repairs, whcrcupon private

Italian Aspirations
Quarrel With Neighbors

Moreover, as Italian aspirations
and purpose quarrelled with those
OF the Jugo-Slavs at the northern
end of the Adriatic, they equally
collided with Greek hopes and claims
in the Egean and in Asia Minor.
Italian forces already occupied Va
Iona, the key of the Adriatc, but the
Greek claim to Northern Epirus, to
the Italian mind, constituted
threat to this base, while in the
-Egean Italy, with the frank support
Of America and the sympathy of the
Western powers, demanded the ces-
sion Of the Dodecanesus and Rhodes,
which Italy had seized in her Tri-
politan war, and on the mainland of
Asia Venizelos asked for Smyrna,
expressly promised to Italy in secret
bargains in 1915.
1t was true that the people of
the Northern Epirus were Hellenic;
that there was not an Italian in
the lEgean Islands; that Smyrna
was the seat of a great Greek
colony and the whole western coast
of Asia Minor Hellenic since the
very dawn of history, but these
territories had been promised by
the Western powers as the price of
Italian participation. In the recent
war Greeks had been more often an
enemy than a friend, and once more
the Italians saw with amazement
and anger their recent allies cham
pioning the claims of state which
had been hostile rather than cham
pioning their own demands.
1t is essential for Americans in
examining the Italian question,
which is, after all, symptomatic Of
all contemporary questions, to recog-
nize how utterly different IS the
Italian point of view from their
own. Italy entered the war after
having made a specific bargain. She
was free to make the bargain. Her
statesmen were bound from their
own point of view to ask the largest

italy's Early Stand
Ri Q Aid to the French

When the world war came in Au-
gust, 1914, Italy promptly pro-
claimed her neutrality. She decided
justly that the war was war of ag-
erosion, not of defence, and she
was bound to the Central Powers
only in case they were attacked. But
Italy did more than proclaim her
neutrality. She notified France and
Great Britain Of her neutrality so
promptly that France was able to re-
call from the Alps those army corps
which just suficed to win the Battle
of the Marine.
For many months after the out
break Of the war there ragged in
Italy a tremendous battle between
those who desired that the Savoy
monarchy should remain neutral and

disasters in Galicia and drew to her
self many Austrian divisions which
might otherwise have been employed
in bringing Russia more speedily to
ruin. Again in 1916 her prepara-
tons for great offensive drew the
Austrians into a counter offensive
in the early spring which stripped
the Russian front of troops and
opened the way for Brusiloff's great
victory, which in it's turn drew
many German divisions eastward.
In the campaign of 1918 Italy
again fought we'll in the opening
phases. Meantime, her demands
upon her allies for coal and NUM-
tons were not promptly answered,
and at least it is the Italian belief
that this failure was responsible
for the great disaster Of Caporetto
and the consequent invasion of
Nenitia as well as the devastation
Of large areas of Italian territory.
By contrast the Allies, and par
ticularly the French, had sent large
numbers of picked troops to the
Piave front and lay emphasis on
this contribution to the salvation of
Italy.
In the final campaign of the war
the Italian army, in the second bat
tie of Piave, won the first clear-cut
Allied victory and broke the morale
Of the Austrian armies. Thereafter
when Italy passed to the offensive
Austria collapsed as military
power and Italian troops, by the
terms of their armistice, occupied
not alone Italia Irredenta, but vast
areas beyond.
The Italian delegation which
came to the peace conference

those who advocated entrance on the
Allied side. In an endeavor to pre-
serve Italian neutrality, Germany
sent her ablest diplomat, Prince Won
Bulow, to Rome, and he in his turn
endeavorcd by offering Italy most of
the Trentino to keep her neutral.
The battle was lost. Italy decided
to join the Western powers, who
could offer her and did offer her not
limited areas in the Trcntino alone,
but all of the coveted territory, to-
gether with Trieste, the northern
half Of Dalmatia, the Greek islands
in the Aegean, Turkish territory in
Asia Minor, and in addition prom
Uses of still further accessions in
Africa.
We have to consider, therefore, in
weighing the Italian arguments the
essential fact that Italy came into
the world war not because she was
attacked, as were France and RUS
STA, not because she was indirectly
menaced, as was Great Britain, but
because, as a result Of cool calcula-
ton and sharp bargaining carried
on over many months, Italy OBJ
tanned from the Western powers a
pledge that they would aid her in
the acquisition of territories in
Asia Minor and Africa, possession
Of which would make Italy a great
power beyond all cavil.
