truth is dawning upon us that, hav-
ing been the cat's-paw of all nations

are now to be left stranded high and
dry whilst others reap prosperity.
We have been reminded, indeed, by
Marshal Foch that had the soldiers
been left alone by the politicians
in November they could have
smashed through to the Rhine and
annihilated the German forces.
We should simply have gone to
Berlin and imposed our terms upon
beaten enemy, and by this time
Britain and France wiuld have been
recovering their markets, with am

already are on the job, tracing the
new road A group of American
bankers is financing the enterprise,
while another group has obtained
control of the shipping interests on
the Danube formerly belonging to
Serbia and Croatia. This latter
transaction is taken in Italy to fore
shadow the economic development
OF Jugo-Slavia by American capital
its, while the contracts with
Czecho- Slovakia are cited as show
ing Americas direct interest in the
finances of that new republic.
In responsible quarters there is,
OF course. no tendency to criticise
these transactions, but on the con-
trary American foresight and enter
prise are admired, while it is con-
sidered a good omen that American
business men should be convinced
OF the necessity of closer economic
relations with Europe.
Bearing Resentment.
The former Orlando-Sonnino gov
eminent is bearing the brunt of the
nations resentment Both states
men are charged with having been
blind to the facts of the situation
and with having gone to the Paris
conference with nothing else in view
but the obstinate policy of territor-
ial gains based on the pact of Lon
don. This policy today seems al
together discarded. Premier Nitti
is above all a practical Businessman
and his foreign minister. Signor Tit
toni, is we'll known for his diplo-
matte suppleness. From the first
days of his arrival in Paris. Tittoni
let it be known in allied circles that
Italy would not be as stubborn as it
was imagined with reference to the
Adrlatlc question.
Can't Afford Enemies.
The view OF the present govern
ment is that Italy cannot afford to
make enemies and that in its present
position economic problems must
take first place, instead of purely
territorial aggrandizements. This
new policy has borne fruit very
quickly and already the feeling of
bitterness against France and
against America, which existed I'M
questionably month ago, has given
place to a calmer view of the situa-
ton. People are looking facts in
the face and are no longer letting
passion run riot.
The present program is the near
est to President Wilson's concep-
ton of a fair settlement of the Fiume
problem so far conceived. Slowly
the people of Italy have been given
to understand that the future devel-
opment and greatness of their coun-
try does by no means depend on OBJ
tanning Fiume and its hinterland as
war prizes.
I The Nitti government is looking
toward America for economical help.
! numerous and representative mis-
sion is about to sail for America
with the view of interesting Amer
lean finance and American industry
and business in Italian enterprises
and opportunities. The electrical
ton of the railroad system is one of
the schemes under consideration.
