 Let the paid hyprocrite writ CTS who are yapping about sec ing prosperity returning on every side, just stop and plant one simple thought in their fertile minds.

I Five matters of importance were dis
cussed at the council meetings. These
included Fascist party activities, foreign
and home affairs, preparations for the
tenth anniversary Of the march on
Rome, next year, when the premier
has promised the greatest Assemblage
Of armed forces Rome has seen in
1000 years, the Fascist militia and the
youth movement.
Source of Controversy.
It was the Fascist youth policy which
caused the recent controversy with the
Pope. and Signor Mussolini has de-
clared that mot single youth" should
fail to be enrolled in Fascist organi-
cation.
Before the meeting there were the
usual rumors of impending ministerial
changes, but it was pointed out that
the premier never has announced such
appointments in connection with a
council session.
The premier will convoke the Grand
Council again tonight to consider re-
ports on disarmament and the status
of Fascist youth groups.
Foreign Minister Dino Grandi is ex-
pected to outline the prospects for the
disarmament conference in Geneva
next February in the light of the dis
cussionS before the League of Nations
Assembly. The inclusion of Catholic
youth in Fascist organizations probably
will come under consideration.

tons. The obvious conclusion is that
they have been smuggled from sune-
where. II this Is the case, Carson
says, knowledge of the character of the
smugglers can lead to no other con-
clusion than that the girls are held
IN virtual slavery. There is little pcs
slnlilty That they ever can escape from
the life to which they have been doomed
with the racketeer demanding a large
share Of their earnings as the price Of
his silence.
The racketeNrs do not turn I'D their
noses at small pickings. A girl was
recently picked up who had been SNUG
gled into the United States and en-
ployed as domestic. She had to pay
81 a week, practically the last cent she
could spare, to the gang who had
brought her here. The agreement was
to run for two years. But everything
about the racketeers indicates that at
the end of this time new demands would
have been made against which she
would be helpless.
Agreed to Divide Loot.
The worst criminal picked up by Cars
sons men-a gunman who had left an
unSavory record in his native land
told the immigration authorities he
had been brought to the United States
for the sole purpose of following his
trade. He had agreed to give half his
loot to the racketeer who had manipu-
lated his admission. He had no choice
but to comply with his bargain. But the
racketeer demanded more and more I'M
til, at the time of his arrest, the man
said he had been mulcted out of $4,000
Of his own share from his hold-ups.
Then he was arrested, and the rae
keteer promptly forgot all about him.
A few days ago one of the alien
smuggling racketeers was killed, prob
ably by one of his own kind, who feared
that he was about to expose the racket.
In the office where he was murdered
letters were found from prominent at
torneys which showed clearly they were
aware Of the nefarious business of their
clients. The American Express Co. re-
Gently issued a warning against Is
criminal aliens charged with being in
ternational forgers who specialized in
manipulating letters of credit. The in
vestigation disclosed that Is of these
men had been struggled into the United
States.
