Nitti Declares He
Regards Slavs as
Friends Of Italy

Rome. Mar. 2S.-Premier Nitti de-
elared in the chamber of deputies to-
day that he had never regarded the
Jugo-Slavs as enemies, but had regard
ed them as friends. He expressed hope
that they would soon partake of Ital-
ian economic and cultural advantages
and deplored what he described as a
dangerous press campaign which is
calculated to foster distrust among the
Iugo-Slavs."
while anxious to bring about a
friendly understanding with the Jugo-
Slavs." he declared. there is another
solution TO demand the enforcement OF
the pact of London. France and Great
Britain have stated that If Italy desired
the application Of the pact they wuuyl
not refuse. as they hold themselves
bound by 1t. If italy is compelled to.
demand the carrying out of the CON
ventien ii will be necessaryto ask its
complete enforcement without includ-
ing Fiume."
Signor Nitti condemned that section
Of the press demanding the pact and
also Fiune and said he had told thu
supreme allie council in London that
il Italy required the enforcement OF
the treaty. she would concede autono
my to Dalmatia.
IF nc other agreement can be reach
ed he continued, "a third solution Of
the Adrlatic question may be to ac-
cept, with suitable notifications, pro-
posals formulated by Great Britain
and France. This solution is desired
still less by Jugo-Slavia than by Italy,
but nevertheless it is necessary to keep
it in mind while continuing our efforts
to reach an adjustment by an amicable
understanding with the Jugo-Slavs.'

Bettina. curiously enough, has no
chronological connection with Betty,
as is generally supposed. 10 is an
Italian feminine name which was de-
rived from the old verb beO, TO bless,
and later, with the word benedico
TO speak WE'LL.
Beata and Bettrys were the early
forms Of the name and in DiOcletian's s
prosecutions, the Christian maiden,
who drew the bodies of her martyred
brothers from the Tiber and buried
them, afterward sharing their fate,
was called BeatriX. Her relics were
enshrined at Rome and her Tame
spread broadcast. Dante further con-
tributed TO the prevalence Of the
blessed names. by making the love
Of his youth. Beatrice POrtinari, the
theme OF his Vita Nuova" and his
guide through Paradise.
Bona, another form OF the name,
was used by the daughters OF the
Counts Of Savoy, and in the House
Of Luxembourg, and came TO the
throne of France with the daughter
OF Johann OF Luxembourg, the blind
King OF Bohemia. In Spain, a Nisi-
gothic nun was canOnized as Bene-
dicta and partly in her honor and
partly through the fame OF the
patriach Of the western monks, Bene-
dictus, her name become the popular
and accepted form in the Latin
countries. Italy, producing a Bene-
delta, straightWay contracted il tC
Bettina. a form which England anC
America adopted and popularized.
