NelO Volcano Burst
May Relieve Italy

Rome, Nov. S-The recent erup
tion OF Mount Pisanello n the Apuar
Alps near Carrara, means new
volcano in Continental Italy, Vesu
vius having been the only volcano
there and as well, on the European
continent, Etna and Stromboli are
ON Italian islands.
Although large territory on the
western coast Of Italy is of volcanic
origin, no eruption of any volcano
except Vesuvius had been recorded
within the memory of man.
There can be no doubt that the
recent terrible earthquake at Fiviz-
zano and the eruption of Pisanelo
Mountain were caused by the same
force, for the town of Fiyizzano is
only 10 miles from Mount Pisanello,
the highest mountain of the Tpuan
Alps Pisanello is more than 10000
feet high, its altitude being about |
equal to that of Vesuvius. Like most |
of the Apuan Alps, Pisanello consists |
in large part Of he finest marble
which was utilized by the ancient
Romans, and rediscovered by Michel
Angelo The Apuan Alps ARE parallel
With The Etrusten.
Biologists think that the quakes
which have shaken the neighborhood
Of the Apuan Alps at short intervals
will cease for long period to come
because of the eruption of Pisanello.
