American government resembled the
Fascist state more than any of the
liberal democratic governments of
Europe.
When Premier Mussolini was ask
ed to state the precise meaning of his
oft repeated phrase, '1taly's undenl-
able colonial rights" and to tell ex-
actly how he intends to achieve the
truitlon OF them, he declared:
Our colonial aspirations do not
constitute a menace for anyone. Italy
asks only what is indispensable to her
and what it is just that she have. 1t
is certain that she will obtain fulfill
ment of these desires by a policy or
peace and friendly agreements since
no nation would want to assume the
grave responsibility of obstructing
the achievement of such legitimate
and, in reality, such uneXcessive as
pirations.
The best way for Americans to I'M
derstand Fascist Italy, the premier
said, is through a comparison with
their own country. "ParadoXical as

sembled the doctrine prevalent IN
Italy. before the advent of Fascism,
of class self defense and regional au-
tonomy.
'In the United States it was neces-
sary to fight a frightfully dC1tructive
war to affirm the authority of the
federal government, while we were
able, with a comparatively bloodless
struggle, to affirm the authority of
the central statal organization.
''The American government re-
sembles the Fascist state more than
any liberal democratic government Of
Europe. Popular sovereignty is tenn
pered by strong governmental au-
thority. Universal suffrage elects the
government but cannot interfere with
its work as Is unfortunately the case
in European democracies.
But there is such a tremendous
gulf in type, tradition and history be-
tween the United States and Fascist
Italy, that something more than good
will is needed for mutual understand
Ing. In connection with such basic
matter as our condemnation of liber-
alism and democracy Americans can
not arrive at a clear understanding
we'll as our todays. Here I am afraid
they have had little or no adequate
guidance. Fascism Is q profoundly
italian phenomenon, intimately con-
nected with our history, psychology
and tradition and eliminating in a
long, complicated political revolution.
without accurate knowledge of soucc-
es, without marginalia or footnotes,
no just analysis is possible.
Foreign journalists. failing to take
the true historical perspective, have
been deluded into following erroneous
clues. For example, they have popu-
larized the notion that the origin of
Fascism can be found in the postwar
period alone; that it is merely an
other of the numerous dictionary
explosions directly due to the world
war. These are ridiculous blind al

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 22.-The
Dutch submarines XIII is out of
San Francisco en- route to Java,
bearing in addition to its naval per-
sonnet a group of scientists whose
mission is tinged with romance.
The mission is round-the-world
survey of the earth's waistline. If
successful the scientists. aboard the
submarine will have obtained proof
that the world at it's equator is not
round, but consists of numerous
facets.
The XIII came to berth at San
Francisco after a 9,000-mile voyage
from Holland, made without escort
This was the vessels only port of
call in the United States.
The survey is being made under
the direction of DR.. F. A. Vening
Meinesz, chief scientist with the
submarine. Instruments especially
constructed to compensate for the
movemet of the underwater vessel
are being employed.
Zone of the things we arc try
ing to determine" DIR. Meinesz said
while in port, sis the exact shape of
the earth at the equatorial belt.
Scientists are not inclined to draw
conclusions until they have a great
wealth of material to draw from, but
from the tests have made ! feel
safe in venturing the theory that
there are fiat spots in the equa-
torial belt
"GravitMonal attraction depends
on density and mass. 1t is very
evident, from the minute but meas
urable variations scientists have
found on the earth's surface to exist
in gravitation, that the under crust
is probably not uniform in its den
sity. and that the pull toward the
center is not the same in all parts
