had become exhausted. His inter-
nal credit was approaching the
breaking point. The lot Of the
people had not only not improved,
but in five years it had grown
steadily worse. Unemployment vas
a grave menace. A dictator care
not have unemployment.
TINE war offered Mussolini his
n escape. First it enabled him
to take 100000 men out of Italy
and put them, tor the time being,
in Ethiopia. Furthermore it en-
abled him to put great numbers of
the working population into war
industries. But third, it enabled
him to do what he dared not do
under peace cono1tions-call upon
his population for severe sacrifices.
In time Of war, the nation can
be- aroused. 1t can be called upon
to surrender money, savings, prop
erty. In time of peace this is i'm
possible-particularly to one who
calls himself a miracle worker and
who promises the solution of all
problems, including hunger, to his
people.
Mussolini used these sacrifices.
He raised more loans. He made
loans at per cent instead of
little over 3. He nationalized for
eign investments-thGt is, forced
all Italians to deliver TO him the
stocks and bonds and notes and
credits which they owned in other
countries, and for these he gave
them Italian bonds and Italian
lire. He collected the interest and
dividends from these and paid the
owners in lire. He still holds these
investments.
LIE made great loans to large in
j. l. dustries concerned with war
supplies. Those industries continued
to have credit troubles, so he took
them over. He needed gold, So he
called upon Italian women to sur
render their wedding rings. He
needed metal. He called upon the
children to give up their metal
toys. Now he has debt greater
than that one which drove him into
the war. And the war is over. And
the mood for sacrifice is over in
italy. He must now face the Ital-
ian people, who will ask what they
are to get for all this.
Does he dare to bring those
100000 in his legions home to a
jobless state? He declares he will
hold 100000 out of the 100000 in
Ethiopia, not as soldiers, but as
pioneers. He can send Italians to
Ethiopia as soldiers. Can he hold
them there as exiles? Will mothers,
wives, fathers asks this what we
get from the war?
The economy of peace, and with
it the psychology of peace, is now
resumed. 1t is resumed in a ma
tion overburdened by debt, with its
peace industries dislocated, its for
eign credit gone, it's foreign trade
crippled. Will the. Roman popu-
lace be satisfied now with dramatic
notifications? Will it not ask for
the blessing which the dictator has
promised it? Having beaten the
Ethiopians. how will Mussolini beat
the economic law which continues
to be at war with him?

Landons initial essay at presidential
campaigning develops the fact that
the Kansan has speech making ideas

His talks are not ghost written for
him, anyway.
On the contrary, it is whispered
that he has advisers who think he
would do better simply to read what
they have prepared. He thinks other
wise.
The governor may be right. I'm
doubtedly he has experts at his COM
mand who could supply him with
more thrilling words than those OF
his personal choice, but they, would
have to be ringingly enunciated to
make them telling, and the governor,
his closest friends say is perfectly
aware that his style doesn't ring.
