Princess Who Wed
For Love Now Lives
Quietly in 1ripoIi
YoIundu's Husband
Commands ItoIy's
libyon Cavalry
BY LLOYD LEHRBAS.

ROME Correspondence of the AS
sociated ress).-Princess Yolanda,
daughter of King Emperor Victor
Emmanuel and Queen Empress
Elena, whole years ago-fell in
love with and married a commoner
in a storybook romance, now lives
a simple life in Tripoli.
The Princess, 38, is the wife of
Count Giorgio Carlo Calvi di Ber-
COLO, cavalry officer in the Italian
Army, in command of the Libyan
Cavalry in Italy's African colony.
And the name of the princess who
married the handsome young cav
airy captain who taught her to ride
now rarely appears in Italy's news
papers unless in mention of her
riding at horse shows or her attend
ance at races.
Count of Old Family.
Most of her time is spent mother
ing her four children-grandchil-
dren of the King -Emperor-and in
hccplllS llOuSC.
While not of royal blood, the
Count comes from an old italian
family. His father, Count Giorgio
Calvi di Bergolo, was Italian Min
lister to Greece when he was born
at Athens March Is, 1887.
When 10 he entered the military
school at Modena and in 1908 was
commissioned a second lieutenant
and assigned to the "Nizza" Cavalry
Regiment, one of Italys crack horse
outfits.
During the World War he served
in the cavalry and artillery and
emerged a captain with one silver
and three bronze medals for valor
In March, 1920, he was named
an instructor in the famous cavalry
training school at Pinerolo and 1t
was there he met Princess Yolanda
and taught her to ride.
Continued as Teacher.
After the wedding the Count and
his royal bride settled in Pinerolo,
where he continued as an instructor
for three years before he was pro-
NOTED to major and returned to
the "Nizza" Regiment, stationed in
Turin.
During their residence at Turin
he was elevated to colonel COM
manding the regiment and the Prin-
cess four children were born. None
of the children has royal rank.
In April, 1888, Col. Count Calvi
di Bergolo was assigned to COM
mand the cavalry in Libva.
He has participated with success
in numerous national and interna-
tional competitions in horsemanship
here and abroad.
The Count and Princess are inter-
ested in agricultural problems and
personally conduct. with the Counts
brothers, farm holdings in Monfer-
ratio and Alessandrino. applying
modern methods and utilizing mod
ern equipment.

tary background unusually brilliant.
He was one of the young officers
who studied under Foch at the staff
college after his graduation from
st. Cyr, Frances west point. On
the college records are notes from
Foch praising Gen. Gamelin's tao
tical flair, developed by experience
in the army geographical service.
Suggested Marine Attack.
In 1906, he was assigned to the
staff of the 9th infantry division,
whose commander, an engineering
officer with some colonial experience,
began to lean on young Gamelin's
knowledge of strategy. That gen.
eral was Joffre.
Five years later, when Joffre be-
came commander in chief of the
army he took Gamelin with him. 1t
was Gamelin who warned in war
preparation days of the dangers of
German attack through Belgium.
Still more significant, it was Gam
elm, then a major, who put the idea
of counter offensive on the Marine
into Joffre's head and pressed it
with his superior until, on Septem-
ber 6, 1914, it was put into action
after two days delay. The end of
that battle saw the Germans in re-
treat.
The allied command did not fail
to notice Joffre's omnipresent aide
whom one general called "a smooth,
chubby, young little officer in COM
plete command of himself" and at
the end of the war Gamelin, de-
spite Joffre's setting star, became
a divisional general.
Crushed Druse. Revolt.
Postwar years were studded with
brilliant experience. He took charge
of the French military mission in
Brazil in 1919 and remained there
six years. In 1925, he went to Syria
and, after a long and hard cam
paign, crushed the Druse revolt.
BY 1881 he was chief of the general
staff and his most notable achieve
ment until M. Daladier came to
! SoHSl W Wuo UllC ChUCllolOll VI UllC
Maginot Line of Notifications from
the Rhine to the English Channel
south of Belgium.
Gen. Gamelin is a Partisan. whose
erect military carriage bellies his
66 years. That is not unusual in the
army, but what marks the man apart
from his extraordinary knowledge of
military strategy, is his diplomacy.
Before Gen. Gamelin came to head
the army diplomacy" for an army
officer meant saying nothing about
political questions.
Gen, Gamelin's word now carries
not only the weight of Frances first
soldier and probable allied COM
mander, but the weight of a friend
of M. Daladier.

Reich Trade Treaty.
Seen Saving Face
OF Japan al Home
Counteructs Setback of
American Abroeotion
Of 1911 Pact

BY the Associated Press.
TOXIC, July 80 (Sunday).- The
initiating in Berlin of a new Ger
man-Japanese trade treaty was
interpreted here today as enabling
the japanese government to save
face domestically after the shock of
Washington's abrupt denunciation
Of the 1911 American-Japanese pact.
The agreement with Germany was
initiated Friday and yesterday the
foreign Office gave the development
unusual attention by issuing a state
ment stressing the significance Of
the pact as strengthening the anti
Comintern front.
Germany Source Of Supplies.
Japan will be able to get an aug
mented supply of articles from Ger
many required in times of peace as
well as war" the statement said.
The agreement brings Japan into
still closer relationship with her COL
laboratorS against the Comintern."
Germany, Italy, Japan, Manchu-
kuo, Hungary and Spain are bound
together to combat Communism.
ut is matter for congratulation
that through agreements such as
the trade agreements with Manchu-
kuo and Italy and the present Ger
man-Japanese agreement the anti
Comintern axis is being steadily
strengthened in economic and other
spheres" the statement added.
Some circles interpreted the spe-
cial mention of Japan's new ability
to get articles required in times of
peace as we'll as war" as hint to
the United States that steps thereby
were being taken to soften the blow
of any arms embargo
Held Political Expression.
japanese newspapers quoted Maj.
Gen. Eugen OFT, German Ambassa-
dor to Toxic, as saying "the new
agreement is an expression of the
will of both nations to promote
their relations in the fields of not
only economics, but also of politics"
Many observers considered the
German-Japanese action a swift
maneuver clearly linked with the
American abrogation of the Ameri-
can-Japanese treaty last Wednes-
day.
1t was stressed that the important
question for Japan was whether the
United States would follow her de-
nuncation with any other step, such
as an arms embargo.
