THE SAVIOR OF ITALY

UyHE task confronting Armando Diaz in
i 1917 was of magnitude calling for the
strategy Of Fabius and the offensive vigor
Of Scipio. Indeed, not since the third
century B. c., in which these worthless
hourished, is there an instance of so narrow
an escape of Rome from the invader as was
accomplished after the collapse at Caporetto.
It Is disquieting to consider tho might
have beens Of 1917. when the exclusion Of
Italy as factor in the World War seemed
90 imminent. The resourccfulncss and ad-
ministrative ability Of Diaz saved the day
In Venetia.
BY the early summer of 1915 further
Austro German advance beyond tho Piavc
was definitely checked and the way was pre-
pared for that titanic engagement the fol
lowing autumn which marked the most
complete reverse suffered by any Of the
armies of the Central Powers in action
The fervent reception accorded the pman-
cipator of Italy in Philadelphia yesterday
was logically characterized by az outpour-
ing Of his corlpatriots. But the meaning
OF the event scended racial frontiers.
Americans of all origins are indebted to
Diaz for n prodigious achievement in the
face Of enormous difficulties His place as
one of the makers of the victory Culminat-
ing in Armistce Day is unquestioncd.
