The Problem of
Trieste
By Ivan M. Tchok

"AS Tor F'lume and Trieste,
the natural outlets for Yugo-
slavia, the Old Men of Ver-
sailles gave these cities to Italy,
although she really had no need
for them as they would only
compete with Venice, which as
pired to regain it's ancient and
honorable position as mistress
of the Adriatic. AS a result, the
grass now grows in the dock
yards of Trieste and Fiume
while Yugoslavia, as of old,
must send it's agricultural prod
ucts by one Of three routes. 1t
may send them down the Dan
ube to the Black Sea, which is
about as practical as if New
York should export it's merchan-
disc to London by way of Lake
Erie and the St. Lawrence
River. It may send them up the
Danube to Vienna and from
there through one of the noun
tain passes to Bremen, Ham
burg or Rotterdam, which is
also an exceedingly expensive
procedure. Or it may send them
by rail to Fiume, where the
Italians, of course, do their best
to ruin their Slavic competi.
tors"
It seems that so far as Zara
and Fiume are concerned now
after a quarter of century of
experience-even the Italians
are beginning to admit that
these cities must be returned to
the regions to which they be-
long. And yet, although the
problem of Trieste is not only
fundamentally the same but
even more urgent, because Tri-
este is much more important
as a port and it's hinterland is
much more vast and rich, the
Italians and a large section of
world opinion, still under the
influence of Italian propaganda,
look upon Trieste as an integral
part of Italy.
The problem of Trieste, there
fore, represents one of the most
troublesome questions of Euro
lpean postwar reconstruction.
The future of Trieste concerns
all Southern Slavs. Angelo vi
vante, Italian socialist leader,
in his book "Irredentismo adri-
atico" (Firenze 1912 wrote
(p. 217): "Whatever the future
political organization of the
Southern Slavs may be, it is
certain that they will oppose

Here's a simple lesson in
arithmetic that the Greater Gle

should keep in mind: Accidents
multiply your worries; divide
your income; and add to your
discomfort; and substract from
the victory effort!

tive CENTER; in the afternoon

p. m. farewell and leave. -
We do not believe that in the
history of mankind has music
ever been employed so methodi-
cally to attain the spiritual and
physical enslavement of peo-
pie, and that under threat of
the conqueror's lash the slaves
must even sing with joy.
Despite this tremendous Ger
manizing effort, the Germans
have not even succeeded in MAX
ing the Slovenes apathetic and
Indifferent, much less in win
ming them over. On the con-
trary, it has stirred up in the
entire population, hatred and
resistance, of which we shall
speak in another part of this
review.
The entire personnel, en-
ployed in cultural-political
propaganda in the occupied
territory, meets periodically at
the regional centers where they
receive additional training for
their work in special finishing
courses. These courses usually
last two or three weeks. There
upon the visitors return to their
places fortified in the con-
sciousness of the loftiness of
the German cultural task" as
is said in official reports.

with all their forces a political
separation of the Julian region
from it's hinterland. For it is
this region that forms it's near
est and most natural maritime
outlet" Vivante's words are
just as true today as they were
thirty-three years ago.
Let us examine the Italian
claims to Trieste made after the
last World War at the Peace
Conference in Paris. After the
Government of the United
States refused to recognize the
validity of the London Pact of
April 26, 1915, the Italian Dele
cation set forth the Italian
claims in a Memorandum pre-
sented to the Conference on
February 7, 1919. In this Mem
orandum the Italians indicated
that in claiming Trieste, Gori-
zia, and Istria, their aims were
Ito free their sons still lingering
under foreign oppression" and
"to attain an assurance of
safety both on land and sea-
Further, the Italians stated that
they were "guided by considera-
tons of geographical continuity,
natural defense, historic tradi-
tion, national redemption and
economic laws of the country"
In other words, Italy claimed
and obtained these territories
on the ground of (D their geo.
graphical continuity with Italy,
(2) national defense, 81 ma
tional unity, az historical de-
velopment, and (5) economic
independence.
The provinces of Trieste, Co.
rizia and Istria (the Julian
M arch) are geographically
united with Carniola and Croa-
tia and not with Italy. The
1strian peninsula is separated
from Italy by the Adriatic. The
country north of Trieste is
mountainous, until it passes
over into the Italian plain. Ex-
actly up to the border of the
mountain the population is Slo-
venian. Where the plain begins,
the Italian population also be-
gins. The plain, west of the
river socha (Isonzo), merges in
to the North-Italian plain, while
the geological formation of the
mountains, east of the river, is
the same as that of the Vele-
bit and the Dinaric Alps along
the Yugoslav Adriatic coast. On
the river Socha (Isonzo) is the
geographical beginning of the
Balkan peninsula. These facts
are scientifically incontestable.
They show that the Julian

Forty-four years ago last Mon day, May 10, 1899, in the little town of Montesano, Wash, a gay young blade with a pretty girl on his arm walked up before the Rev. Edward Todd an took the vows of matrimony.
 Monday that same couple was ob- serving the event quietly at their home in Wrangell. They are Mr. and Mrs. Frank Reed, pioneers of this community.
 Tt doesn't seem like A years, but I guess it must be-" said the bridegroom, Navy veteran of the Spanish-American war, the days of wooden ships and iron men. Asked for his recipe for A years of mari tai bliss, he replied:

US. Landings At KiSka Seen
 InNearFuture
By John Hightower Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON When the time comes to throw the Japs out of the Aleutian Islands of Alaska, auth critics here agree the job will be done by American troops landing under fire and fighting with guns, bayonets and hand grenades until the last enemy surrenders or dies.
 The blow might fall this spring Or summer It is certain to fall when the Pacific war reaches a point where Kiska can be a useful base for American operations. such as air attacks against the Jap Kur- lies.
 Despite the months of bombing, the Japs are believed firmly en- trenehed on Kiska and their sup porting base at Attu.
 Aerial poundings to which they have been subjected are not and cannot be sufficiently heavy to force them to withdraw.
 Informed persons here give sev- eral reasons for the enemys ten acity in holding the islands. Fore most among those reasons is that the Japanese command had to have something out of it's grand offensive
