Explanation Of Maritime Success
Much of the Italian success in pas
senger ships, however, has been
through an appeal much more print
tive. The Italian cuisine is noted
throughout Europe and Italy has sent
her greatest cooks to sea to add their
art to that of the other masters
aboard her ships.
Ancient things have in another wav
conspired to help the Italian effort
upon the seas. No less person than
Tutankahmen has had much to do
with this. Americans who were in
terested IN seeing the famous tomb
in the Valley of the Kings found that
they could make the best connections
at Naples, travelling thence on the
great liner Esperia, so luxurious as
to be an anomaly in those waters,
Americans are also selecting the dr.
rect route to the Mediterranean, on
their way to the beauty and rest of
the Riviera, thus voyaging in calmer
seas and avoiding railway travel.
All this affords some explanation
OF the growing maritime achieve
ments of Italy; of her transition in
the last decade from country whose
chief interest for the rest of the
world lay in the art treasures of her
luminous past, to country. alert and
progressive. taking a notable place
upon the seas.

the work can be possible. The junior

floor except for one room. On this
floor is a beautiful auditorium seat

Therefore, it would seem that
the surplus which the farmers have
produced stands today in the way
of their receiving prices commen-
surate with American production
costs. AS a panacea, crop curtail-
ment has been suggested, but, the
working out Of effective plans for
influencing prices by this means
carries the prospect of relief into
next year or the year thereafter,
and the plain unvarnished C:uth is
that relief deferred for a year hence,
