Sicily and southern Italy were
called the Kingdom of the Two
Sicilies before Italy became a
unified modern state. Now the
Yanks in the Mediterranean area
have welded the Two Sicilies to-
gether again with fire and steel.
Biologists say that Sicily and
southern Italy belong together.
Nature separated them ages ago.
and much blood has been shed
in military and political efforts
to re-join them. General Eisen-
hower's Yarlks, in crossing the
Strait of Messina, have followed
the route of the Romans, Of Rog-
er the Norman. and of Garibald1.
What are the Two Siciies like
island and mainland? What are
the Yanks finding that is familiar
and ''just like home" and what
is new and foreign?
On the familiar side is the wealth
er of the Temperate zone. Sicily
never freezes, but the mountain
tops are sometimes covered with
snow. Southern Italy, with its jag
ged spine of mountains reaching
400 feet, has severe winter
Of sudden extremes, especially in
the Apprentices and east to the
Adriatic.
Few Farmh0uses
Although southern Italy and
Sicily are largely agricultural, they
have few farmhouses. Farmers
live in towns and 60 daily to
fields miles away. This practice
causes rural areas to have a de-
serted aspect strange to Yanks.

R - Acceptance of Russia's

might precipitate Civil War in
Finland, Eric Lindquist, foreign
editor of the Swedish newspa-
per Morgon Tidningen, reported
today after a trip to Helsinki.
While Finlans was reported
awaiting Moscow's reaction to
a revised Finnish answer to the
Russian terms, Lindquist report
ed Finnish public opinion was
so unprepared for peace that
only one person was capable Of
uniting the people in their cur
rent dilemma. This person. he
said, was Field Marshal Baron
Carl Gustaf Mannerheim, the
Finnish commander-in-chief.
There is strong opposition to
the Governments attempts to
get out of the war, not 50 much
because of any feeling of friend
illness for the Nazis as because
of the long blackout of informa-
