ROME. Feb. 4-(By the Associated Pressl-Premier Nitti. in d long state ment to the Associated Press today on the economic situation said:

Italy has s, an example, understanding this ne cessity.
 Says Italy Tax Burdened
 We, first among all the nations of Europe have adopted the heaviest tax ation. We are raising taxes sufficient to pay the interest on our debts and also our expenses. For each new debt we have advised new taxation. We are approaching the equilibrium of the national budget and if we could count on favorable circumstances we should be the first nation on the European continent to balance our income and expenditure.
 We count only on our own strength, not on indemnities from the van quished countries. If these indemni- ties eventually are paid, it will be just compensation for all our sacrifices. But we must depend exclusively on our resources.
 We have just launched a great loan in order to withdraw treasury notes from circulation and reduce the paper currency. Subscriptions to this loan already amount to fourteen billion lire. enabling us to withdraw from circu- lation ten billion in treasury notes and decrease the paper currency. We have never cast any doubt as to our duty to pay debts contracted in Eng land and America. We have only asked for a reasonable postponement.
 Tt is not for country which has made sacrifices like ours to have inn mediate payment demanded.
 Tt would not be unreasonable or unjust, but for all that we do not forget our duty. We are descendants of those ancient Romans who said that to owe money was to be a slave We wont be slaves even to our best friends We desire to return as soon as pos sible what we borrow.
 America, however, must understand the situation clearly. An egotistical spirit now animates the nations, the war not having brought that solidarity which should have resulted from trials endured together.
 The rise in exchange represents a, grave danger, giving to all a feeling that it is a threat to economic life and social peace. The rise in e0ckAngo

PROPOSED hVTI-RED
 BILL |S TOO DRASTIC
 DECLARES PALMER
lRepubIican A. p. Leased Wire]

WASHINGTON. Feb. 4-Additional anti-sedition legislation, simple in character and guarding the guarantees of the bill of rights but covering the hiatus in present statutory laws, was urged by Attorney General Palmer before the house judiciary committee.
 Upholding the right of free speech ana constructive criticism, the attorney general protested against pending mat terS which he said were "too drastic and far reaching and so searching that they overreach their purposes" More harm than good would some from re- pre ssive legislation, he said.
 Reviewing the activity of the depart ment of justice in suppressing radical ism, MT. Palmer told the committee that vigor with which his department had acted together with it's notice to law breakers of the strong and positive in tention of the government to punish crimes had had the effect of maintain ing such order as would have been otherwise impossible.
 Present Laws Inadequate
 But there is no existing statute ad- equate to meet the present situation" l" Mir. Palmer told the committee. There is a condition sof revolutionary intent in the country on the part of both aliens and citizens which is suffici- ently widespread to merit serious con-
 
 tionary intent is manifested chiefly by threats, both written and spoken, by persons who would injure, destroy or overthrow the government by physical force or violence"
 Citizens rights should always he guarded, MT. Palmer said, adding that he agreed with those who criticised the Graham Sterling bill on this ground.
 But I do not agree with those who object to the bill because they believe that acts Of violence should be met with argument only and not by the firm hand of federal statute he said.
 The Davey bill, drawn originally by MT. Palmer and introduced in the house last November, the attorney general said was adequate for the present emergency. No postmaster general should be given authority to decide whether alleged seditious matter was ncn- mailable as provided in the Ster- ling bill passed by the senate, he said.

~ Prince Abul AbeAaGE. II, "TAs Isle
- SURPRISE" J., .=.l.,'-'-, =
On Thursday. February 12. the
Princeton University Triangle Club
will present the isle of Surprise" in
a matinee performance At the Belasco
Theater. in this city. This perform
ance will be the thirdof series of
performances that the Triangle Club
il giving In the cities along the east
ePn coast during the week Of Febru-
tion of this play that will Be made in
Washington. 80.
It mas been the usual custom of the
Triangle Club In the past to take one
trip during the Christmas vacation
each year through number Of the
cities. This, year the club made a
rather extended trip through nine
cities aud met with p very enthusias-
tic reception at each city. The isle
OF Surprise" proved SO popular and
the demand for tickets was SO great
the management decided to make an
other trip. and so a tour along the
eastern coast has been planned for
the week Of February 9.
Two seniors. +. Harris and E. H.
Coney, wrote the isle Of Surprise"
and. in fact. the whole production
has been run on a purely. amateur
Princeton. The play Is an oriental
melo-farce with musical accompani-
ment and has a setting on an island
in the Arabian sea that gives the
whole play an oriental atmosphere.
British soldiers and American tourists
come to this island and bring with
them a modern humorous touch that
makes the play a bright sparkling
comedy staged in a beautiful oriental
setting.
The music is one of the outstand-
ing features Of the production and is
far superior to that usually found in
a college production. The composers
have followed the Gilbert and Sulli-
van opera in the writing OF the music
and have as a result introduced a type
| of, music without the ordinary Jazz
that still has q delightful undertone
of syncopation and melody.
