14 PLEADS FOR MORE ITAUANSFOR U. S. Ambassador Caetani Says i Italy Looks to America for Relief. XKW YORK, January -4.—A plea to the United States to aid Italy in Its reconstruction by permitting In creased emigration was made last night to the Italy-America Society by Prince Oelaslo Caetani. ambassa dor to the United States. ••Thousands have /been thrown out of work in Italy through reduction in governmental offices, the army and navy and the palice.” Prince Caetani declared. “The only outlet, and to check actual suffering, is emigration. The emigration office is prepared to met any demand for specialized labor." Calls Country “Xnr Italy.’’ Prince Caetani referred to his coun try as "New Italy” and paid tribute to Premier Mussolini and the fascist!, of which he Is a member. “Italy is determined to effect finan cial and economic reconstruction without resorting to radical meas ures,” ho said. “Perfect order has prevailed and there have been no strikes since Mussolini assumed office. The Italian parliament will take up ■.he Washington treaty of disarma ment within a few days, he said, and le intimated that the move was gen erally favored in Italy. Message Prom MuasoliDl. “Premier Mussolini bids me to tell you that he considers no - country loser to the United States than Italy n the firm determination to restore teace and prosperity in this rauch ormented world,” the ambassador laid. “Italy and the United States will surely co-operate for the welfare >t the world and their common efforts will bring both nations closer and closer together. “The premier also bids me to Invite Americans tf> visit Italy to bear wit ness that Italy is an example because of its peaceful labor and firm de errnination to foster world recon .tructlon for the benefit of humanity." Cites Earnest Effort. The financial and economic recon itruction of Italy by the fascist! is ■he most earnest effort made so far >y any country to face the difficulties if the post-war period and to meet ts political and financial obligations. Tince Caetani declared. The am bassador urged bis hearers to con sider bin* not only Italy's faithful ■eivant, but also America’s affectlon t“. loyal and faithful friend, economics are being rigidly en fo-ced by the new government, ot hich he is the representative, the mbassador pointed out; supemumery nd useless employes arc being rap -11- discharged from government of ces and from railroads. All these re orm* and tho rigid econom>- in state xpendltures are forcibb’ throwing •housands out of emplos‘ment. Place must be made for them, and therefore ncreased emigration is becoming an requisite for the read ustment of Italy’s affairs. Mmmollni’s Policy. “Mussolini’s policy was at first sus pected abroad as having a revolutlon rj- tehdenc>’: as .soon gs his govern lent was formed It was styled reac ionary. It is neither. He intends to protect capital Inasmuch as it is the oundation of prosperity, and he will Irmls* protect labor as the funda mental organ of industrs' and creator •f capital. His Is not a dictatorial overnment, but one of unflinching ■’eterrnination to put through those ■•“ forms that everj'body has been ad ocating for years, but nobody, so far, 'ins had the courage to apply for fear ■if unpopularits - .” The ambassador pointed out that after the war every nation of Europe, exhausted by tremendous effort, had a period of moral feebleness, of aber “ation. of disgust, socialism, bolshe vism and other “isms”.tried to profit from such opportunities and for a while demagogy, under the mask of democracy, had Its sway. This hap pened in Italy, as elsewhere: for a lime the socailists were allowed to plas- at their will with the unchange able and irresistible laws of eco nomics; the treasury was assaulted and the principles of old Roman right were undermined. Rebellion of Conscience. “At last the people’s onscience. fully matured during the war. rebelled; a national movement crs - stallied around an ever-growing group of young and brave men who had taken the ranvs of ■fasclstl’ and who openly r.efused to be fooled.” Ambassador Caetani conveyed to his hearers, both Americans and Ital ians alike, the personal salutation of Premier Mussolini, saying that the latter considers no country closer than Italy to the United States in mutual determination to re store peace and prosperity to the tormented world. Ethnologi | ally, he declared. thes- are the two voungest nations In the world, both the outcome of old stocks. In which successive waves of immigration have been successfully absorbed and as similated.
