ROME, Aug. 15.-The battle royal of American cities for the privilege og harboring the national political conventions is almost as nothing compared with the intense desire of several Italian cities to be the birthplace of the royal prince Cor perhaps princess) who will be born to Crown Princess Marie Jose prob ably in September
 Naples hopes for the honor be- cause Crown Prince Humbert and Princess Marie Jose live there in the royal palace, and Humbert is commander of the Naples military zone.
 Capri longs for it because the princess is passing these months of expectation there, in the com pany of Princess Mafalda, second daughter of King Victor Elm manuel.
 Turin thinks it has a chance be- cause the prince and princess lived there when they were first mar ried
 Rome has a chance because the King and Queen live here, and Marie has spent many months here.
 Racconigi, near Turin, where the prince owns palace, is agog over it's own possibilities.
 San Rossore, near Pisa, believes it is in the running because the royal summer home is there, and September is usually a hot month in Italy.
 Naples Offers Cradle
 Naples and Racconigi believe they have definite evidence in

their favor. In Naples orders have been given, to refurnish some of the apartments in the royal pa.ace. At Racconigi Crown Prince Hum- bert has recently visited his palace twice and ordered two apartments done over.
 The people of that neighborhood say that the apartments are des- tined for the two queen-mothers (Helen of Italy and Elizabeth of Belgium) who are expected to be present for the royal birth. Prince Humbert himself was born at Rac- conigi, September IS, 1904.
 Meantime all Italy. regardless of geographical position, is eagerly awaiting what is called in this kingdom, "il lieto evento,' C'the happy event'D. Humbert and Marie Jose, married more than four years ago, have not yet had a child.
 The Naples municipality has talk en unto itself the honor of provid- ing the cradle for the baby who may one day be king of Italy (unless it's princess).
 The cradle will be made from the offerings of close to million Neapolitans, each offering being limited to 20 centesimi (about two American cents).
 Owing to the flood of gifts which seemed about to descend on the ex- pectant parents, orders have been issued throughout the kingdom that those who are thinking ol presents are kindly requested tc make a donation, instead, to the National Maternity and Infancy organization.
