Italy Announces She Does
Not Recognize Any De bt
to the French Government
(Bn nIsnatch A. p M,raN

ROME, Feb. S.-It was announced
officially Tuesday the Italian gov.
ernment does not recognize that
Italy owes any war debts to France.
This announcement came in con-
nection with publication of Premier
Mussolinis speech at a cabinet meet
ing praising the work of Count Vol
pl, minister of finance, in the ne
gotiations for funding Italy's war
debts to the United States and Great
Britain. 1t was stated, moreover,
that Italian experts who have been
studying this question find that Italy
is really Frances creditor in regard
to war financing, involving recipro-
cal expenses of the war years.
In any case, it is generally held
here that any sum Italy may owe
France is insignificant compared to
the debts owed America and Eng
land.

More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES j. MONTAGUE
BARRIERS.

BARRIERS.
No malice toward doctors or dem
lists 1 harbor,
Though both have prepared often
dispensers of pain,
But L freely admit that I don't like
barber
For reasons which presently. I
shall explain.
At nineteen or twenty my brow was
surrounded
With locks which dropped grace
fully over my eyes
And back to the nape of my neck
they abounded,
In way that made every one
gasp with surprise.
But the barber who cut them would
glance at them sadly
AS, shipping scissors around me he
strolled,
And murmur: "Your hair has been
falling out badly,
You'll be bald as a baby when
thirty years old"
'Unless," he continued (and if any
twinges
OF consciences assailed him, he
gave not a sign),
"You take nice course of messages
and singes
And use night and morning these
tonics of mine."
And so L submitted and did as he
told me;
Messages and singes 1 took every
week,
A half dozen bottles of tonic he sold
me
Which he said he dispensed to a
popular shiek.
I gritted my teeth like the veriest
stole,
AS my head with his sinewy fin
gers he mauled,
And said to myself: Though the
treatments heroic
be bald"
But after each session I had with
this shearer
My head aching madly, I rose
from the chair,
And saw as [ looked in his fly be-
specked mirror
That part of the hair that I had
wasn't there.
In spite of his tonics, his rubs and
punches,
In spite of the messages and
singes and such,
1t fell out in groups and detach-
ments and punches,
1t rubbed off like paint at so
much as a touch.
And now of a night when the
lamps have been lighted
My head is q CLEAN like an ivory
ball,
And therefore this poem of hate I've
indicted
To say that do not like BARRIERS
at all.
