to accomplish this are little late to
be sure, but better late than never.
England and America have underestl-
mated our difficulties. The invasion
and the devastation wrought by the
war are still handicap to us TO a
terrible degree.
Although the richest industrial
region of France is still in ruins
nevertheless. our 1920 budget amounts
to 20,000,000.000 francs ($4.o00.00o,

Foreign economists suggest the
suppression of subsidies and the re-
duction of military expenditures as
desirable measures of economy Tor
France The first is quite feasible. but
the second will hardly be favored by
our statesmen. They do not want to

FIVE BILLION FOR WINE,

Italians Can Afford to Pay More for
Food, Declares Senator Pelle-
rino to COLLEAGUES.

ROME. September 24-Italian work.
men spend 5000, 900, 900 lire annually for
wine and can well afford to pay a higher
price for bread, declared Senator Pelle-
rino in the senate today. The minister
Of finance declared yesterday the gov
eminent could no longer afford to buy
wheat abroad and sell it below cost in
this country. this plan having been
adopted to keep bread prices from ad-
vancing.
The senator argued that it was abb
surd for the government to lose $780,
100000 lire annually while workmen
could pay higher prices. He said the
proposed advance in the price of bread
should be carried out as 1t was in Eng
land and France, where. he declared,
prices equal the actual cost Of the COM
modify.
Higher bread prices" he said, Twill
decrease consumption. Statistics show
Italy consumes 1000. 900 tons more
wheat than is necessary. since, owing
to its cheapness, it is used as feed for
animals"
Premier Giolitti strongly urged the
necessity Of reducing the financial def
cit. but reserved to the government
complete liberty in choosing the means
Of reaching this end. Before increasing
the price Of bread, he said, the govern
ment would examine whether Il is Dos
sible to obtain the same object by in
creasing, for instance, the tax on wine.
He closed by declaring that even If
bread prices are increased, the burden
Of the advance would not fall on the
lower classes.
