ITALIANS TO GATHER
BONES OF SOLDIERS
(By Associated Press) .

Rome, Oct. ia great national
subscription is now being made to
collect together all the bodies of Ital-
ian soldiers who died fighting on the
mountain front and are insufficiently
buried, all the bones which are
whitening on the rocky mountain sides
and to give them fitting sepulchre on
one of the highest peaks, probably San
Michele 1t is proposed that simple,
noble monument should be erected,
under which will rest together Off
GERS and soldiers, rich and poor.
One of the sad phases of Iitaly's
war on the mountain front was the
difficulty of burying those who fell
fighting. The soil on the Carso range
is such a thin crust over the massive
rock of which the mountains are form
ed that dynamite had often to be used
in order to make sufficiently deep
grave especially on those historic
peaks like Monte Santo, Monte Nero,
the Grappa, and the Hermada, where
Italian blood flowed like water. The
Austrians originally held all the pass
es there and dominated the Italians
at every point, but they were taken
and ,retaken over and over again until
the final victory gave them to Italy
for ever.

ecuted, when one OF the Bolsheviks,
