high until, on July 25, 1913, his
former lieutenants forced him

mountain top from which Ger
man paratroopers rescued him
the following Sept. IL.
In this span of years the
stocky dictator became a dra-
matte world figure, a sword rat
tier, whose word swayed the
fate Of millions in many lands.
He defied the world, and con-
quered Ethiopia, proclaimed the
new Roman empire of which he
had spoken for so many years,
rendered the Ethiopian crown to
Italy's king, and spoke with
scorn of Great Britain and 81
other nations which opposed the
Ethiopian conquest with eco
nomic sanctions. He withdrew
Italy from the League of Ma
tons.
About this time his friendship
With Hitler grew, and II Duce
led his nation down the road to
disaster in 1887 and 1893 by ce-
mentins the friendship.
BACKS HITLER
He backed Hitler's claims to
the Sudetan section of Czecho-
slovakia. Hitler then gobbled
up all of Bohemia and Moravia
and established a protectorate
over Slovakia.
To save face at home, Musso-
lini took over Albania for Italy
in a surprise armed movement,
and II Duce and Der Fuehrer
considered themselves a great
team. They were the Axis, link
ed in May. 1889, in military and
political treaty.
Mussolini took the sidelines
when Hitler and Great Britain
came to grips, then stunned the
world on June 10, 1910, with his
"stab in the back" declaration
Of war on France.
He extended the war to
Greece, and the Germans had
to rescue him. He really began
to lose face with the Libyan re-
verses, and it must have been
clear to him then that he had
guessed wrong.
He rushed to Hitler in Berlin
for help, but it was too late for
help-his lieutenants had recog-
ned their country was in ruins
due to his reckless conduct, and
they forced him to resign. Then
they surrendered to the Allies.

time took few pains to conceal
his contempt for his companion
in war crimes.
AT the last, when Mussolini
fled for his life before an upris-
ing of patriots against his new

to have lamented that "even

he had no friends.
