David Krllmaa net rth iila vlrwa of fawlwn wn In italy. tollman, a gradual of thr unlvvralty. haa thM yar taken op hla work In thr political arlenre department after a year at atudy In Europe. One who wlshea to understand fascism should study Italy, the country in which it first took form. The faaclst party has had control of the Italian state for twelve years; it has had time to develop its institutions and its philosophy, and it now has a concrete record which may be examined. The nazl brand of fascism is still in an in describ le state of flux, and it is therefore hazardous to venture any generalizations concerning it. The observer will find, however, that there are striking parallels be tween the anti-democratic move ments of Germany and Italy. Fascism in Italy was largely a product of the aftermath of the World war. Though one of the great powers which "won" the war, Italy came out of the great conflict in a particularly bitter and sullen mood. Since Italy did not enter the war until ten months after it started, the Italian people had ample time to debate the ques tion of participation, and when the war waa over, many were bitter against those who were responsible for It, Reform Promise. Furthermore, during the war the politician made extravagant prom ise of root-and-branch reforms, which were later forgotten. Above all, many Italians felt that Italy had been cheated, at the peace con ference, of her fair share ef the spoils of victory, and demanded farther territorial acquisitions. SATURDAY, JAN. 26 Miss Cleveland Talks to Charm School Tuesday Relating her personal experience in the business world and illustrat ing her talk with costumes mod eled by girls of the home econom ics department, Miss Catherine Cleveland of New York City was the speaker at the regular meeting of Charm School held Tuesday evening in Ellen Smith hall. Miss Cleveland is recognized as one of the foremost business women of the country as is evi denced by the fact that her por trait was one of the few women stylist's to be hung in Radio City. For several years she was a mem ber of the Vogue staff, writing under the name of Ellen Roberts. She was also with Sir Wilford Grenfall, taking charge of the de velopment of all native industries in Labrador and Newfoundland. She is now with the Cotton Textile Institute as a promoter of the use of cotton in schools and colleges, and, as she stated it, "as a walking encyclopedia of what Is going on in the cotton market." "Girls interested in home eco nomics have no limit to the possi bilities of interesting jobs," stated Miss Cleveland. Included in these jobs are positions with magazine, private concerns, department stores, extension work, trade asso ciations, handcrafts, stylists, and designers. Cotton has become of such im portance in the style world of late that Miss Cleveland brought va rious clothing articles made of cot ton with her to illustrate her talk. Girls from the home economics de partment modeled clothes ranging from lounging pajamas to formal (Continued on Page 2.) particularly in Dalmatia and Asia Minor. The first two years after the World war were also years of serioua industrial unrest. The war dislocated the economic life of Italy a indeed it affected the economic structures of every coun try, including our own. Further more, Italy hd to fall back upon her own resources after the war, and the government had to meet $2,000,000,000 of obligation ma turing by 1920. Inflation was the consequence, and prices rose accordingly. Since wages did not rise fast enough the workers began to agitate, and finally they struck. Italy' in dustrial unrest was due to post war expenses, inflation, higher price and a higher coat of living. Communist propaganda was a fac tor, but not a fundamental one. Complete Breakdown. In post war Italy, too. there existed a difficult political situa tion. No party waa able to form a government in the chamber, and no stable coalition seemed possi ble. Parliament waa in a state of emlparalyaia. From these various cause, there seemed to be a com plete breakdown of social dis cipline. But the process of adjustment soon set in, and It was In full swing when Mussolini came to power. Italian statistics indicate that In all field of economic activity, a evidenced, for example, by coal import, railway transpor tation, bank deposits and joint stock company capitalization, re covery was on it way. By the year 1821-1P22. Italy had no longer to resort to foreign loans, for the bal ance of trade had been restored.

Appoint ments may be made by calling Richard Hufnagle at the Cam pus studio. Payment is due at the Cornhusker office for or ganizations which have con tracted for space In the 1935 yearbook. Financial reorganization took place at the same time, inflation was stopped in December, 1920, and the budget was almost balanced in 1B22, the last prefascist year. There were strikes, and there was distress, but this happened all over the world, including the United States. It would be absurd to deny that Italy was then pass ing thru a severe crisis, but it was crisis of readjustment, not of dis organization. Italy wa a recover ing patient. Ultra-Revolutionary. During the two critical years of 1919 and 1920, Mussolini was an ultra-revolutionary. He urged that nothing short of a proletarian rev olution would auffice to establish social justice. He demanded the overflow of the monarchy, and the establishment of a republic. The workers, in his view, should share in the management of industry. He approved and encouraged the occu pation of the factories by the worker in August and September, 1920.,Mussolini opposed the social ism, not because they were revolu tionary, but because aa revolution aries, they were Incapable. The end of the revolutionary threat came with the failure of the occupation of the factories In the fall of 1B20, and the split between the socialists and the communists in January, 1921. Thua Mussolini wrote, on July 2. 1921: ' "To aay that there exist a Bolshevist peril in Italy 1. for Interested motive, to substitute fear for reality. Bol shevism has been vanquished." This was fifteen month before the march on Rome by the Black Shirts. So lung aa a chance for a Contiou-rl rm Page J.)

L Watkin of the United State bureau of chemistry and oil ha been here spending about a week in the conservation ana survey division preparing a aeries of soil maps of the shelter belt area. SATURDAY inanity ies Mcuonaia, urana is land soph and George Wahlquist, Hastings, are the Scarlet hoop per formers promoted to the front Una ranks, playing center and guard, respectively. The shift in openers was occasioned by Coach Browne's desperate need of defenders to do the so far ne'er accomplished talk of checking the Staters' rampag ing scorers and the more desperate need of a Nebraska high scoring combination. McDonald earned his right to starting recognition by his stellar play at St. Louis, Coach Browne made known. "He played an excel lent game, both offensively and de fensively, and was in the thick of the play during most of the game," the Husker mentor stated. Wahl quist won his spurs as the lad who inaugurated the deadly passing at tack that beat Minnesota on the local floor a week and a half ago. "He's been coming along gradual ly," said Coach Browne, "and un less something unforeseen happens will get the nod at guard." But in spite of McDonald s pro motion, it was Harvey Widmaa and Harry Sorensen, varsity per formers of a year's standing, who divided the center chores Tuesday afternoon. Widman held down the pivot Job most of the way, but waa spelled occasionally by six foot Sorensen. Despite this recent change of policy, however. Coach Browne was still admanant in his declaration that McDonald would play center when Nebraska takes the floor against the invading Iowa State quintet. Wahlquist displaced W ldman at a guard berth, but the lanky Mead fighter can be called on as a cen ter if necessary. Tuesday afternoon was devoted entirely to frosh and varsity dum my scrimmage, with the frosh holding sway first as an offensive unit against the varsity, and then in the defensive Iowa State posi tions. As an offensive team the frosh fell flat before the varsitv defenders, who were reaching up. down, and sideways to keep their goal clear during the entire dummy workout. Defensively, their work was almost as bad, with the var sity breaking thru for frequent goals, a delight to Coach Browne (Continued From Page S.) LYMAN 10 GIVE TALK AT YIC.A.
