ROME, Feb. 5.--Italy's reac-
ton 10 America has become more
serious, contemplative and more
understanding in recent months.
There has been much less print
ed about Hollywood and Ameri-
can crime, and efforts to interpret
what is going on in Washington,
New York and the United States
at large have been apparent.
Less Hollywood News
Less material about Hollywood
and the inside stories of the
stars is receiving space in Italian
newspapers partly because the
papers are trying to give as much
publicity as they decently can to
the struggling Italian movie indus
try.
One explanation of the decrease
in crime news is that many of the
American crime leaders, from
King Capone on down, have been
of Italian origin, and Italian news

papers, who are fond of demon
strating that, in comparison with
other countries, Italy's situation is
paradisical.
There is one American topic
that receives as much space in
Italian papers as ever, but from a
different angle-prohibition.
Repeal Gets Attention
Instead of the bootlegger, gang
ster, Observation-Disclosures type
of story of the past, newspapers
are eagerly printing stories Of the
repeal of prohibition as it affects
Italian wine exports. An American
decree on liquor imports is given
as much space as the biggest in
ternational story of the day. :
The depression has brought
Italy a better understanding of
America, for the reason that ItaI-
ians returning to their homeland
from the United States have talk
ed about the new world to their
relatives and friends.

LARGE SAlLFISH
CAPTURED SUNDAY
BY LOCAL VISITOR
FRED LEE TAKEN OUT IN,
COMPANY WITH DR.. ROB-
ERT o. VAN DEUSEN AND
ALBERT w. JOHNSON

Fred Lee, of Beech Haven, N.
D., is probably the happiest man
in Key West today, having taken
yesterday the largest saiIfish Of
the season. The catch weighed 81
pounds. was Z feet 8 inches long
and of 26 inches girth.
With DR.. Robert o. Van Deu-
sen, Mr.. Lee was out as the guest
of Albert w. Johnson on the yacht
Ungava. After the usual success
in catching number Of other
fish came the strike that every
angler longs for, a sail fish.
After the fish was hooked and
leaped into the air several times,
the occupants of the yacht realiz-
ed that it was a magnificent speci-
men and began to caution Mr.. Lee
as to the handling of the rod and
reel.
After the excitement and physi-
cal exertion attendant on catching
the coveted prize, Mr.. Lee gave
every evidence of being on the
verge of a collapse, it was said,
but fortunately there was no oc-
casion for the doctor to pre-
scribe.
DR.. Van Deusen had a nibble.
The fish left his line and went to
that of Mr.. Johnson. but evaded
the hook and made off.
There was a number of sail
fish seen by other groups and in
dividuals, but this was the only
capture.

co-nationals is dubious publicity
for their own country.
NRA Taken As Compliment
The same conclusions stand
good for the talk of the general
public.
With reference to Mr.. Roosevelt
khe Italian reaction may be divid-
ed into two sections, one being on
the NRA and the other on the
monetary policy. The first they
follow with much interest, in the
belief that the American codes
are an imitation of and therefore
a compliment to the fascist cor
porative state. The second they
don't like at all. For several rea-
sons:
Many fear that because of the
dollar the Ira may eventually be
threatened and the value of their
Ira savings impaired. Many other
thousands have invested in dollar
bonds of the Italian government
and Italian industrial firms float
ed in New York.
Bond Incomes Reduced
Their income from these bonds
has been reduced from 80 and 40
percent as their dollar dividends
are converted into lire. Most of
the articles printed in Italian news
papers on Roosevelt's monetary
policy condemn it.
American unemployment, with
figures and deductions, receives a
perennial position in Italian news
