SAYS MUSSO[|NYS
STRENGTH GROWS
British Writer Declares Italy
Is More Prosperous and
Contented Than Ever.
By the Associated Press.

LONDON, July 25.-The govern
ment of Premier Mussolini is stronger
than before the Matteotti crisis,
there is not the smallest possibility
that the leader will he overthrown,
and Italy is contented and more
prosperous than it has ever been, ac-
cording to the conclusion of special
correspondent whom the Daily Mail
sent on a mission to Rome
The newspaper gives prominence
to the correspondents report, which
fills nearly four columns and consti-
tutes what probably is the. most un-
qualified panegyric ever bestowed
upon the Italian premier by a foreign
publication. The correspondent says.
in part:
ITO enter Italy today is to enter
the most cheerful land in Europe.
1t is the only country where hope
abounds, where spirit and youthful
Vlgor are everywhere visible and
where there certainly has been great
and wonderful development
L nave been deeply impressed by
the signs of progress and advance
ment. There has been ii remarkable
revival of industry throughout the
peninsula"
These encomiumS are made possible,
according to the writer by the activ-
tiles of the Mussolini administration,
which the correspondent declares is
great contrast to the governments
OF Italy. He admits that there were
some critical moments during the ex-
citement which followed the alleged
Kidnapping and Staying of the social
deputy Matteotti, but says the gov
ernment's position is now as stable
as ever and the Matteotti case is
ceaSing to exercise public opinion.
The correspondent is enthusiastic
over the Italian dictator's personality
his earnestneSs, austerity of demeanor
and life. Recording a personal in
terview with him. the writer says
that Mussolini "only once INDUCED in
mirthful laughter" and that was
when the interviewer told him that
people said the premier was afraid to
attend the London conference lest he
be overthrown in his absence.
Conditions in Italy are contrasted
with those of Great Britain by the
correspondent TO England's great dis
advantage. Concluding his article
the writer says:
IF by any mischance Mussolini were
overthroWn now, the effect would
shake the whole of Europe and bring
chaos and destruction perceptibly
nearer"

Crowded.
BY the Associated Press.


PARIS, July 25.-American and
Canadian advertising men who at
tended the international convention in
London and who will arrive here Sat
urday for a four-day visit, will find
the city overfiowing with visitors
and the three largest hotels turning
away would-be guests.
The French reception committee de-
clares, however, that those of the ad-
yertiSing men who have already ar
rived have all been accommodated at
smaller, but equally good, hotels.
Fifty members of the Associated Ad-
vertising Clubs of the World, includ-
ing several from Houston. Tex, where
next years convention will be held,
arrived this morning.
Sunday. the delegates will spend at
Versailles, and on Monday they will
be received at the Hotel Se Vile by
the American Chamber of Commerce

with the President, with prominent
French statesmen as the guests of
honor.

the Agence Havas, and in the after
noon will visit the lie Bourget Air
Field, where a demonstration will be
held for their benefit. Their visit will
end with a gala performance at the
opera in the evening.

both of these boys had perfect free
dom OF will and entire freedom of
moral action. There never has been
a case in which this could be better
shown by the length of time spent in
planning their crime. 1t would seem
that some kind of insanity may have
accounted for the conduct of the
stronger mentality of these two char
acters, as 1 believe Nathan Leopold,
jr., is.
But in searching for causes, much
more satisfactory conclusions, it
seems to me, may be drawn from the
lives and environment of these boys
and the effect of all of that upon
their minds. Here we find things that
might have been avoided by more dill
igent parents or teachers.
There was pampered existence
and an utter indifference to the rights
of others, an utterly selfish life al
lowed to take it's own uninterrupted
course, native precocity permitted
to take a reckless and unbridled path
where it would, with the advantages
of an intensive education more ma
terial than moral, and with no kind
standing by the parents of what was
going on underneath in those fervid,
brilliant, unbridled yet childish minds.
Unheard-Of Egotism.
1 am sure it was never suspected
by parents or teachers. In these
things, far more than in any theories
of insanity, l find the reason for this
dire tragedy-their self-importance
their self-esteem aided by their sta
ton in life, the great wealth of their
families, all fed an unchecked and
unheard-of egotism developed by an
education directed by immaturity and
not maturity.
All of these things. with adolescent
irresponsibility for conduct-as sure
ly as the law admits it in youth
when dealing with property-had
much to do with shaping their minds
to the commission of such a horrid
deed.
Opposes Hanging.
think the attorneys for these two
boys are to be commended for their
action in throwing them upon the
mercy Of the court They They shou,d should be be
placed beyond the possibility of
again inflicting the innocent with the
results of their perverted minds.
But they should not be hanged. To
my mind that would be only adding
one crime to another. 1t would only
be the n-Christlike doctrine Of ven
geance trying to solve the results of
ignorance and violence 1t might sat-
isfy the mob, it might satisfy our ira
dition and conventions of ignorance,
it might rid the world of two now
mentally misshapen youth. But 1t
would not rid us Of our problem. In
the solution of that, which is the
only good that may come out of this
evil, it would be much better to leave
these boys to be m-rcifully expert
mented upon by society, instead Of
Numerically taking their lives in the
name of vengeance, or of permitting
them to experiment upon others by
being at large.

Fathers and mothers, learn the Ian
guage of your children. Know their
thoughts even better than you know
their actions. For their tragedy of
modern youth is rather the tragedy Of
modern parenthood. If it involves
the lives of three children and the
suffering Of their parents as the one
tragic necessity of arousing the
parenthood and the teacherhood of
America to better understanding of
responsibilities, it will have been a
horrid evil not without it's good.
Are these boys insane? 1t is very
difficult to believe that two boys of
such brilliant mentalities could both
be insane. That is a question for the
alienists. The State will undoubtedly
have eminent specialists who will
prove they are sane. The defense will
have those equally eminent who will
prove they are not.
Yet we cannot escape the fact that

Frye said ove the telephone We'd
nesday morning that he was doing
business al the same old stand, and
that he had an Office full of patients
at the time he was speaking.

are entitled.

Grounds Sold

The Mount Holly Fair Grounds,
containing twenty-eight and a half
acres and all of the buildings, were
sold Tuesday by the Burlington
County Fair Association to Samuel
Browne, of Mount Holly, for $50,

Since it became known that the
Association had determined to dis
continue holding the annual Fair,
and dispose of it's property, there
have been a number of people nib
bling at the proposition. Some
wanted it for real estate develop

racing meets, while still others
hoped that a new organization
might be formed to take over the

MAUD HORTON SENT TO JAIL IN
DEFAULT OF $1,000 BAIL.
FOUR MEN SENTENCED

Mrs. Maud Horton, of Laurel and
Third streets, whose house was
raided by local authorities last
week, was arraigned before Judge
Slaughter at Mount Holly or Thurs
day last, and pleaded no guilty to
the charge Of keeping a disorder
ly house," She was sent back to
Jail in default of $1,000 bail. The
other Beverly residents who were
hauled in at the raid were Albert
Broughton, Alfred Kirk, George
Sanford and William Leslie, the
first three offenders were sentenc-
ed to thirty days in Jail and the
latter sixty days.
The fact that her husband is
serving sixty days in the state
prison appears to have no effect on
the sporting propensities of Mrs.
Horton. There is nothing unusual
about this as she is generally dis
orderly when she is at home.

Beverly Loses To
Mount Holly

The head and tail of the Burling-
ton County League came together
on Saturday here at the P. K. r..
grounds when Mount Holly and the
local team met and Beverly started
out as though it din't want to any
longer stay at the bottom of the
line. Mount Holly, of course, came
out on top in a 10 to 5 score, but
before that decisive victory was
reached the local club had the sa-
tisfaction of knocking Woodington
off the mound in the first inning
and making it necessary for Man
ager Young to come to the rescue.
Beverly liked Woodington's deliv-
cry right well.
Woodington started by walking a
man and then having Beverly's
clouters lambast him for two doub-
les. There were two men out and
a man on second when Young went
IN and proceeded to fan Gotch, BeV-
erly's center fielder, for the third
out, retiring the side. Young pitch
ed air tight ball for the rest of the
game and held Beverly to six scat
tered hits, while Mount Holly clout-
ed VanBrunt for fourteen safeties,
and had the game beyond all doubt
after the third inning.
Any real up-to-date game of ball
could not be complete without an
airplane, SO the airplane was there
on Saturday. 1t few over the field
during the fourth inning for the
evident purpose of amusing the
fans, the herd of horses in center
field not furnishing enough action
to be exciting. The horses number
ed about fifteen in all and persisted
in grazing around the o~utfielders.
