The Italian Election

The reports from the italian cleo
ton do not yet show the precise COM
position of the next parliament, but
it is clear a complete failure has
come to those who hoped and worked
for an upheaval. The Socialists have
gained fcrty-nine seats in addition
to the seventy-seven held in the pre-
vlous diet; but the gain means
the strengthening of the moderate
rather than OF the radical wing of
the party. The Socialist landslide
predicted by scaremongers has not
come. Moreover, the italian elec~
torate, for the first time, voted on
the basis Of proportional representa-
tion and by means Of candidates
lists instead of the old individual
constituency method, and this told
heavily in favor of the Socialists, as
one of the two really organized par
ties in Italy.
The appearance Of a second or
ganized party--the so-called partito
Popolare, or popular party-marks
an epoch In Italian political history.
Under its banner the Catholics of
Italy formally enter the parliament
airy arena for the first time. The
new party, launched under Vatican
auspices, heralds new phase in the
relations between the Italian ma
tional state and the Catholic Church.
and even the strongest opponents of
clericalism admit a concentration of
clerical strength in an openly or
ganized parliamentary section is
preferable to it's diffusion through
clandestine channels. That the new
party has won on its first attempt no
fewer than ninety seats shows that
1t will be factor in Italian affairs.
Where the new party stands in
the confused Italian parliamentary
lineup is difficult to say. That its
weight will be thrown into the scales
against any radical upheavaI is GER
tain, but its advocacy Of moderate
social reform, especially along the
lines of peasant proprietorship, is
likely. Probably it will strengthen
the ranks of the pro-Fiume nation
alists, for the demand for Fiume is
associated in Italian imagination
with resistance to the bogy of
French intrigue. and Italian Catho-
lies profess little love for the great
anti-clerical republic.
There are no indications how the
more than 200 seats secured by the
Constitutionalists-exclusive of the
Catholics-are distributed between
the immediate supporters of Nitti
and the more intransigeant Nation
alists, but the division is at any
event of rather academic charac-
ter. For in regard to the outstand-
ing problem of Italian politics, that
Of Fiume, there seems to be only one
view in Italy, and this is that Fiume
must remain Italian. Such differ
ences as separate the various groups
New-York tribune., 1919-11-22

on this question relate merely to
the means to be adopted to achieve
universally desired end.
The bold seizure of Dalmntian coast
points by d'Annunzio indicates a
strengthening of home sentiment in
his favor, and it will be difficult for
any Italian government to back up
with practical measures it's dis
avowal Of technical illegal acts.

Slightly Forgetfulo

From The Montgomery Advertiser}
A. r. L. executive officials are indig-
nant lest the United States government

indignant at the miners for pursuing
course which may bring hunger and
sickness to the children OF men of ell

merely an oversight.

The Coming 7'ower

The other night, asserting books and
trying to put them in order, we picked
up Swinburne and reread lot Of him.
Now, we enjoy the carmne cadences
of Swinburne, so we read him aloud
to an audience Of one white kitten.
1t was, it seemed to US, almost as
though Swinburnc had a white kitten
in mind when he wrote. "What bunk
is this." we mused.
And just as we were about 10 spill
few paragraphs on Swinburno we
came upon the following truetalk Of
Solomon Eagles, in the New States
man: II have seized the opportunity
Of arguing that most of Swinburne is
rubbish. Why? Unconsciously,
imagine, have been impeled by the
feeling that it is the most dangerously
plausible rubbish that exists; that In
huence exercised by Swinburne is the
worst influence, artistically, to which
writer can be subjected; that, in
fact, enthusiastic youth should always
be warned against him. Ho WAS (when
not inspired) an eXtraordinar clever
composer Of fakes, the large movement
of which conceals the deplorably loose
writing; and many have derived from
him the conception of verse as merely
the accumulation Of sweet or sonorous
lines and rotund words. He imposed
bad artistic habits and bad vocabu-
larry on whole generation Of minor
writer's"

the war was 400 billions, neglect some

The announcement that a new dead
the question Of Eastern Galicia, is
one more unpleasant reminder Of the
almost nsoluble difficulties Of the
peace settlement Oddly enough, in
this new dispute America has ranged
itself definitely with France and italy,
and Great Britain stands alone, in the
role familiar since the beginning Of
the Paris Conference, in hostility to
Polish aspirations.
The exact question at issue 4 the
ultimate disposition of the eastern half
Of the old Austrian province Of Galicia
1t is claimed by the Poles, who now
possess it, having wrested it from the
Ukrainians, and it is similarly claimed
by the Ukrainians, who occupied it aft
er the general collapse Of the Haps-
burg monarchy, following the defeat Of
the Austrian armies by the Italians
and the break down Of tho empire.
The Polish Claim
The Polish claim rests upon two IN
equally sound bases, historical and
ethnc. All Of Galicia-the western
half, with Cracow as the capitals in
diaputably Polish, and belonged to the
Polish state until the partition of
1898, when it passed to the Hapsburgs,
together with the regions about Lub-
lin, which were subsequently awarded
to Russia in the Congress of Vienna in
1s14'l5. Apart from the historical
claim, the Poles point to the fact that
the population of several cities, no
tably Lemberg, the capital, is Polish.
BY contrast the Ukrainians correctly
assert that, aside from the cities, the
people of Galica, as far as the San
River, are Ruthenian-that is to say
Ukrainan, and that as a consequence.
under the principle Of self determina~
ton, Eastern Galicia should fall 70
them. Similarly, they contest the pos
session Of Bukovina by the Rumanians
and certain Carpathian countries by
the Czecho- Slovaks.
