ltCC1lI 1IlO11Cllo. 1IOWCNCl, they have never renounced the right to interfere in Italian affairs should the successful conduct of the war demand it.
 On top of conditions which have inevitably crippled the initiative of Bonomi's cabinet, the gov- ernment has suffered from growing disunity within it's ranks. It's left and right wing supporters have never altogether seen eye to eye, and this tendency
 to divide has been accen- tuated as Italy's problems have multiplied. There have been sharp differ ences of opinion over re- construction, over the au- thority to be given to the Committee of National Liberation representing the partisan elements op- erating in the north, and over the questions of the purging of former Fascist elements that have some how managed to retain their places in the bureau cracy as well as in industry and finance.
 Probably it will make very little difference whether, as is rumored, Bonomi makes a new try at forming a government. For under existing circum- stances the art of govern ment in Italy is a species of shadow boxing. The Italians are being allowed to play at it, for govern ment in a real sense is inn possible in a land doninat- ed by outsiders. And the Allies don't seem to be helping much. For in- stance the British cold shoulder to Count Sforza whose high standing at the fore of the army of free dom antedated this war, certainly requires explan- ], ation. Basically, of course, the confusion that prevails in Italy is one of the many grim legacies which Benito Mussolini left to his coun- try, since Il Duce allowed no other man the oppor- tunity to learn leadership.

me that faith in God is the answer
to life.

Perhaps such things as the con,
troll OF mind over matter and the
transmission of thought waves are
tied up together. part of some
thing so big we haven't grasped
it yet. It's part of us and part
Of the something that is looking
after us.
It's one Of the things that make
me believe in personal protection
and in life after death. l don't
know how to put it into words.
Another strange thing happened
TO me. Several years ago l was
flying 10 Chicago. 1t was a SUM-
day afternoon in the middle of
December, and the weather was
miserable. There was lot of ice.
We suddenly lost the radio beam.
For long time we cruised back
and forth trying TO pick il up.
Fog was all around us. We were
lost, off the beam, and flying
blind.
CUT OFF FROM WORLD
Our two-way radio went out
and we lost all communication
with the world.
For seven hours we flew
where, we didn't know. Nobody
knew where we were: nobody
even knew we were lost.
Darkness was coming on. Then,
suddenly, we saw a break in the
murk. The pilot brought the ship
down to within 100 feet and we
saw lights go flashing by on a
four-lane highway
"It must be going from some
place to some place." l said, and
we followed it for some dis
tance.
Then we saw a red glow off 10
the right, headed for il, and saw
a river cleaning. We flew UP
that river. and out of the $50
