atOr had his way this week with a crowd of stubborn passengers on the Grand Ave. line, New Haven. When customary efforts failed to get the desired action, this driver accomplished the trick with these cOgent words: ''Now, you people want to get home, and I want to get to the end of the line, but here we are, and here we're going to stay until you move back in the bus, as l have asked you to do. Are you going to move?"-They moved.
 
 WE ARE GLAD to note that The Bridgeport Herald has taken up our campaign to have the New Haven Library open on Sundays. This is a good cause, and worthy of support of all newspapers who would be of service to the public. Last Sunday the Herald had quite a story on need for Sunday library service.
 *
 ACTION MUST be taken at once, for the deadline for applying for funds is July l. This column sometime ago pointed to the need of library service on Sunday to accommodate workers who are now on longer work week schedule, and who have given up Sunday motoring for pleasure.

new soyietized Government Of the
Republic of Socialist Italy, which
has been set up in the unorth, and
for which Mussolini is the front
man under German direction, flares
up TO puzzle, frighten or intrigue
every important Italian you meet
here.
OVERTURES TO RUSSIA
Leading Italians are convinced
that this northern movement, oil
rected by Germans at its Vichy-
like capital at Brescia, is designed
as q profoundly important German
stalking horse in world politics.
And they read Mussolini's current
manifestos which the Germans
clearly are writing for him, as ap-
pealS for Russia's favor.
Natives here already speak OF
the home made Italian Soviet in
North Italy. And because Com
munism is not distasteful to them,
we are made to appear to be fight
ing against it. Consequently they
are q good deal less inclined than
might be expected to help us clean
out the northern part of the coun-
try.
Only today, Neapolitans had news
over the radio from Mussolini's
capital at Brescia that the Republic
of Socialist Italy is turning over
factories to the workers-giving the
names of factories, their values, and
the numbers of employees. The
canny German idea in sponsoring
this is two-fold: On one hand, 1t
attempts to make us look more like
enemies in fighting against the
government in the north, which
gives such bounties to the Italian
pepole. On the other hand, 1t pro-
vides a carefully designed show
case for Russian eyes as political
and theological bridge in Germany's
constant hope for some affinity
with Stain.

whole pivot on which German
thought is turning, and which now
is turning, and which now Is in

Italy, is the biggest, most far

Certainly the Germans are far from

the continent, it looks as though
they are only at the beginning OF
a dangerous campaign OF new

AS for the economic situation in
italy itself-here again, as through
out Europe, the final issue is not
present or prospective shortages on
a straight quantitative basis. 1tal-
ians can produce, but they cannot
buy. The currency breakdown is
now and will remain the real bottle
neck, rather than simple under
supply.

with its present accompanying

giving any real aid to Italy and to
Europe. You find here that unless
the polyglot, shinplaster currencies
of Europe are tackled first, so that
self-help can get under way, any
such superimposed operations as
emergency feeding or political re-
vivals still will leave this and the
other countries unable to function
and completely unable to use any
new freedom to preserve freedom.
The German-sponsored commua-
ism in the north, and the collapse
of the Ira, are clearly the two most
far-reaching and troublesome fac
tors in Italy today.
