Italian History

From the early Middle ages,
Italy's many separate, self-ruled
states were disorganized and DOM
mated in turn by France, Spain
and Austria. Gradually during the
18th century, the need for unity was
impressed on the people, and in
1859 the absorption of other Italian
states by the kingdom of Sardinia
began. The victorious march of
Garibaldi and his patriots through
Sicily and southern Italy in 1860
1astened the proclamation of the
modern kingdom of Italy on March
II, 1861. Venetia was added in 1866,
Rome in 1870. Joining the Allies in
1915, Italy gained Trentino and Is
ria in the northeast at Austria's S
expense by treaties after World
War l. Italy's colonial expansion
extended to Eritrea, Italian Soma
Hand, Libya, the Dodecanese Is
lands, reached a peak with Fascist
conquests of Ethiopia and Albania
IN recent years. Italian possessions
cover 100000 square miles--11
times the homeland area.

Kill Bindweed

A practical method has been de-
veloped for completely killing bind
weed, or perennial morning glory,
by grazing with sheep. Sheep have
long been known to like bindweed,
but it is impossible to pasture
the weeds close enough to kill them
and still give the sheep enough to
eat. The answer seems to lie in
growing a crop less appealing to
sheep than bindweed on infested
lands. Such a crop supplies nour-
ishment for the sheep at times when
there is not enough bindweed to fur
nish proper feed. Sudan grass and
rye are such crops. The botanist
maintains that "since sheep prefer
the bindweed to these crops, they
will eat the weeds first. The weeds
eventually die out because the
sheep keep them grazed so close
to the ground. The rye and Sudan
grass not only supply the necessary
feed, but aid in hating the growth
of the bindweeds by competing with
them for light, moisture and min
erals if for any reason they are
not closely grazed."

Find Walking Helps
Prevent Common Colds

More colds begin on Monday than
on any other day of the week.
People whose work requires them
to do a great deal of walking have
the smallest number of colds and
their colds are less severe.
Increases in the number and
severity of colds follow sudden
drops in temperature.
These newly discovered facts con-
cerning the common cold are re-
vealed by a 1945 analysis of work
ers' colds in several large indus
trial plants, reported by the 1946
Encyclopaedia Britannica Book OF
the Year.
The industrial study disclosed that
fewer colds are found in air-condi-
toned plants while the number IS
highest in drafty places. The ANAL
ysis showed that December was
the worst month for colds with Oc-
tober in second place. The small
est number of colds occurred in
July.
Other facts brought out in the
industrial plant survey indicate that
with increasing age the tendency
is toward fewer colds, but more
severe ones. Another group of ex-
periments, using 1000 girls of col
lege age as subjects, disclosed that
periods of falling temperature along
with heavy rains show a sharp in
crease in the number of new colds
per day.

Avoid Oyerworking Washer

Avoid overworking your electric
washer by soaking the clothes about
20 minutes before putting them in
the tub and by using plenty of hot
water and good soap. Don't put
too many clothes in the tub at once
and don't wash them longer than
necessary. If an electric washer
sits in a cool place. the grease
around the shafts and gears gets
aard and stiff. Move the machine
into a warm place or fill the tub
with hot water a few minutes be-
fore starting the washer to avoid too
much of starting load on tie mo-

3 Sought After Yacht
Sinks MysteriousIy
In Lake Michigan
BY the Associated Press

SOUTH HAVEN, Mich, Aug. 90
Coast Guard patrols today searched
for survivors of the lavish yacht
Verano, mysteriously sunk in the
rough seas of Lake Michigan yes
terday just as lifeboat bent on
rescue reached her.
Eighteen hours after the sinking
the searchers had found bits OF
wreckage, but no trace of the crew.
The 92-foot vessel, owned by May
nard Dowell, Park Ridge CID man.
ufacturer, went down without a
sign of life aboard three-quarters
Of a mile off shore north of here at
5:22 pm.
A renewed search of the waters
by plane and boat was begun at
daylight today in the hope of find
ing the three men believed to have
been aboard.
Left Chicago Yesterday.
The Verano, which seamen said
cost perhaps 100000 to build, left
Chicago early yesterday for Holland,
Mich, where she was to get repairs.
Aboard were Chester Granath of
Chicago, an employe of Mr.. Dowell's
company, and an engineer and cook
known as Fred and Ben. Guards
men said Mr.. Granath was described
to them as an experienced sailor.
Shore watchers saw the Verano In
trouble IL miles north of here, but
already awash, she went down stern
first as coast guardsmen who sped
to her side were about to fling a line
aboard.
The guardsmen glimpsed loose
lines hanging from one side, indi-
eating, they said, that the dinghy
she carried had been let down and
that her passengers had abandoned
her some time before the Verano
sank in 60 feet of water.
No Sign of Fire.
Mr.. Dowell said he could not &C
count for the sinking. He said the
Verano had leak along her keel"
which was to have been repaired at
Holland, but that he did not believe
this could have been the cause. There
was no sign of a fire or an explosion.
I'VE don't have any idea what
happened said Chief Bosun's Mate
William Herbst, commanding the
Coast Guard lifeboat.

Argentine Chamber Seen
Likely 10 OK. Two Pacts
By TIE Associo.ed Press

/ BUENOS AIRES, Aug. 2s.-On
the strength of a test vote in the
Chamber of Deputies last night
political observers expressed belief
today that the chamber would ap-
prove both the United Nations
Charter and the Act of Chapultepec
providing for American CO.
operation.
/ The test came on a motion for
immediate consideration of the two
measures. The tally was IS in favor
to So opposed, but inasmuch as a
two-thirds vote was required the
motion was lost.
Observers pointed out, however
that simple majority is sufficient
to ratify the two international ac-
cords-which already have been ap-
proved by the Argentine Senate
The tally was taken as an indica-
ton, therefore, that President Juan
D. Peron can muSter sufficient votes
to win approval of both measures
in the chamber.
Police took special precautions
during the chamber session to pre-
vent demonstrations by Nationalist
who staged manifestations in oppo-
sition to the accords during the
Senate debate.
