In rapid fire English the Count stated io an interviewer, "On com ing to the university my first in terest was the Italian class. I was surprised to find now much of the language the students could un derstand when I spoke to them. I had to speak much slower than we Italians are accustomed to, how ever," he continued as he wiped his brow from the effort after coming out of this class. Speaking from the observations that he has made In tht ive states under his Jurisdiction, Colorado. New Mexico. Utah, Wyoming, and Nebraska. Count dl San Marsana stated that the American univer sity, undoubtedly attaches more importance to spoils than the mhools of his own country. He said. "It is nicer for the students, w... 'v..

Eichelberger Declares Students Hold Hopes Of Future. , ..Hope for world peace rests in the fact that students are open minded willing to make unpreju diced studies ot worm anairs, was tvio rwiarntinn of J. Herbert Eich elberger, field secretary of the League of Nations association, ai the conclusion of a series of five addresses given in Lincoln Sunday and Mondny. This hope runner rests m fact, he maintained, that the ma ioHtv of collee-e naDcrs. including The Daily Nebraskan, are fighting the bigoted Hearst press. ir, Eichelberger spoke before the his tnrv rlnsses of Prof. L. B. Pfeiffer, executive secretary of the local association. Mr Flrhelherc-er attributed all of the adverse sentiment toward the League in this country to sel fish politicians. In his opinion the initial refusal of the U. S. to enter the world community and the de feat of any measures lurcnenng this purpose since have been due to politicians who have flaunted the fear of foreign entanglement before the voters simply because this fear was a vote-getter. "That is why Hearst with his twenty-three newspapers is one of (Continued on Page 2.) dents of university age in this country actually attend colleges than do in Italy." At the opening of the confer ence the Consul made known in as many words that there were press questions that diplomats did not answer. He stated that the pur pose of his tour was to contact Italian communities in the region assigned to him. During his as signment, which is for a period of from three to four years, he has already visited Utah and New Mexico, besides Colorado, where he has his headquarter at Denver. In the four minute interview the Count, his delightfully informal manner depicted by his easy posi tion on a table of the Journalism reading room, disclosed the fact that he had previously been consul to Australia with its heat and su gar cane and to Switzerland where he wss able to see his native Italy from his study window.
