BY MILTON BRONNER


TTNWANTED in France, Austria, and
Switzerland, there was no place for
the young Benito Mussoliri to go but home
to Italy.
1t was sorry baggage he brought back
with him-the mark of years of hard
physical toll, few threadbare clothes, an
empty purse.
Mussolini solved the tangle which life presented
to him by doing what the law of CONSUMPTION
quired anyhow-he joined the army to serve his
prescribed time.
He chose to join the 18th Eersaglieri regiment.
The Bersagieri have always been the elite of Italy

methods of corruption and deceit employed by utility

the issue. This IS not the first time that these

ment of Mussolini's policy as
premier.
His military service over, Mus
sOllni spent some time at home
with his father, devouring books.
Then he worked in Friaule and
Undine as a teacher and at Trent
as a journalist. Once more back
in Forli, he secured the job of
secretary of the local Labor party
and editor Of local paper called
The Glass War.
DY this time he was married
~ and had one child. They lived
off his meager earnings of 100 lire
a month.
But he was happy. He could
organize the Socialists in radical
ROmagna. He had a pulpit from
which to speak. He was fiery in
his editorials:
1T is supreme irony to give
books to him whose stomach is
empty. First bread and then the
alphabet. Only people who eat
their fill have the ability to
think"

Of the President. This he does
by delaying letters and mem
oranda with which he disagrees,
by refusing appointments to ad-

More recently, Mac has evolved
a system of harassing visitors
whom he does not like but whom
he has to admit to the inner
sanctum anyway.

chemists of the E. 1. du Pont de Nemours & Co..
in a report to the American Chemical Society.
Problems of insect control will come up for dis
cussion when the ninetieth meeting of the Ameri-
can Chemical Society opens in San Francisco on
Aug 49, Many scientists have pointed out that
mans chief battle for control Of the earth is with
the insects
Lately there has also been much discussion Of

of insects.

agricultural world. There more than 5000

the United States.

THE development of new chemical products to
i control insects will not only speed up the war
against these agricultural enemies but will also pro-
vide increased employment, the du Pont chemists
say They look also for new products to combat
plant diseases and weeds.
The Gragseli Chemical Co, Cleveland du Pont
subsidiary, is conducting extensive experiments
in California and Washington IN an effort to de-
velop better and less poisonous or nonpoisonous

about 140 million bushels.
Most Of this loss is in the spring
wheat states of North Dakota and
Minnesota. where first early rains
brought green growth to the
young wheat and high hope to
the farmers.
After what happened last year,
a bumper crop was hoped for and
expected. But now the black rust
spore is killing off as much as 90
per cent of the crop on some
farms.
Result will be a harvest of
about 590,OO0,000 bushels, far be-
low domestic requirements. Farm
ers in Kansas and Nebraska will
profit. for the shortage is already
booming the price.
But growers Of ruSted wheat are
as bad off as last year-possibly
worse. Last year the drought was
in full blast in May, and Con-

partly because the government is
not on the spot as it was before.
1t has an out this time. 1t is
not responsible for crop reduc-
ton. Spring wheat farmers were
allowed to SOW 100 per cent of
their land. They will have to feed
their ruSted Stubble to the stock

fiance of the authorities.
He was sentenced to one years
imprisonment. Free once more,
he returned to the charge when
the Socialists held their big meet
ing at Reggia Emilia. In a violent
speech he attacked the leaders
and the editor of "Avanti"

vigorous writing made the circu-

10000 to 100000 day.
In November, 1913, the farm
laborers had a conflict with the
troops. For assailing government

on trial in a NGilanese court. To
the Judge he defiantly said prison
was not an unbearable thing

it that to become a real man one

In the midst of such a turbu-
lent life came the news of the
assassination of the Austrian
Archduke Francis Ferdinand at
Serajevo in 1914. War between
Austria Hungary and Serbia
seemed inevitable.
Italy was tied by a pact to
Austria and Germany. But the
terms of that pact said Italy
should take part in war only
if one of her partners was at
tackled.
Mussolini at once Numbered in
the "Avanti" that, if Italy did not
want to dig her grave, she must
adopt complete neutrality.
LIE expressed at that time the

with Austria had never beer ia
vored by the people. Austria was
the ancient enemy. Austria still
held what was deemed Italian
soil.
Getting holder, Mussolini
warned the government that if it
went into the war on Austria's
side the Socialists would strike
and also start civil war.
In September the Socialists

situation. They summoned Mus
