menLlOneu @L all, Jne Italians are Ql- ways presented as regulars of the Italian army. And the. so-called loy- alist government of Spain in com municating a recent alleged setback of the insurgents gratify himself by announcing the defeat and route of many divisions of Italians, totaling to 80,0O0 soldiers. q wonder why they forgot to put Marshal Badoglio at their con1mand).
 Naturally the international anti- Fascist press took immediate posses sion of the fabricated news and stated again the famous farcical chorus that was forced to stop by the speedy occupation of all of Etni- opia. Of course the insurgent com munication that put their interna- tional battalions to the same foot- ing of the reds rinterna ational bat talions in the other. side, were completely ignored.
 The other day another amazing piece of news came from the Valencia government: ..The sudden disappear : ance of Italian Army from the Spanish war front. ct may be talk en back in Ethiopia by the Italian aviation). And from London and P. .ris is reported an imaginary agree ment between the two governments of France and Britain for the using os military force against any sup- posed further landing in Spain of Italian troops.
 The result of this ridiculous news is always identical; rivers of ink and flood of words more or less tanned for forecasting the certain defeat of Italy or for amassing the responsibility of a possible con- fiagration on the capacious should CTS O. Mussolirj.
 It is evident that a campaign against the form of government of Italy, guilty of assuring to that na-- ton a real independence from the arrogance of the more stronger, is in full swing. In Europe, Russia, England and France are spending four or ten times Inore than Italy for armaments, neverth ciess for the i:r ernational press 1t is Italy that is provoking another world war.

 In few years; the colony of Lybia is enriched of farms created from the desert sands, of public and private buildings, of thousands Of miles of roads and Italy is doing 1 at for nenacing the integrity of Egypt, of Tunisia, O. France and England Empires. a} {:
 Three million of Ethiopian slaves are set free and assured the rights of every other Ethiopian; Arabs, He- brews, Copts and people of. every ether religion are assured of respect a-.d protection for their faith; 180,- 900 of Italian workers are developing ] nds, constructing roads, building other things in Ethiopia, and for certain press Italy is doing all that for controlling the life line of the British Empire.
 Italy is advocating the complete revision of the peace treaties and .~c restitution to the annputated na- tions of their territory and their nationals; Italy is seeking justice for ali, so 8 real reign of peace can b: established in Europe and in the world, and for the same press Italy is the nation intriguing against the worlG peace.
 Are the men with high respon- sibinty, are the news agencies and newspapers endowed with the noble power of divulgipg the truth and of creating an underStandable base for the cultivation of good feeling among people believing that can be obtained with the continued pre- meditated attacks to the form of government of the Italian people? am forced to conclude that their desire is to see the Italian people returned to the disorderly condi- tiOns of the year of pre- Fascist t'me;:- but in spite of that desire the n>w standing of the Italian people x,iIl force ffA nations and aII the
