HEADQUARTERS ITALIAN ARMY,
May 2 (by mail).—Throughout Italy
and particularly in this section near
the fighting front, the work of Amer
ican relief accomplished by the Amer
ican Red Cross workers has served as
a medium for stirring the spirit of
resistance among the people and the
soldiers. It has contributed toward
keeping them heartened for the trials
, of the war and letting people know
that America was united with them
in it.
It is a work going on all over Italy,
but here near the front it deals with
actual fighting conditions, in a belt
of country lying just back of the
fighting lines, with masses of troops
billeted in towns, villages and country
districts, and a vast wave of refugees,
swept south and west from the invaded
regions, settled down with all their
misery like a swarm of locusts on
the local communities.
In such a section the work is some
thing more than one of relief, for
while $200,000 has been distributed
in this one section, yet the main pur
pose has been to stimulate and
hearten the spirit of the peasantry,
to arouse their ardore and support
j for the men on the fighting line, and
to let them know that America and
all her resources are with them to the
end.
These provinces of Treviso, Venetia
and Padua lie just back of the Piave
and mountain fighting fronts. Treviso
province is on the border line, with
half its communes occupied by the
enemy and half by the Italians, and
the Piave running between the two
severed parts of the province. Every
one of the thirty-eight Treviso com
munes remaining under Italian con
trol has been visited by the American
Red Cposs workers; the 193 com
munes of Padua province have been
similarly visited, and some seventy
five communes in Venetia province.
Stirring scenes have been witnessed
in these', country districts as the
American workers have carried on
their work under the general direc
tion of Captain Thwaits, in charge ofj
civilian relief in the war zone. At
Este, for example, a public holiday
was decreed, the town was placarded
with posters announcing that “the
Americans are coming,” the school
children and the mayor gave a din
ner with speeches. The same wave
of appreciation and enthusiasm has
spread everywhere, until the whole
region rings with what the Americans
are doing.
The tour today lay due north to the
very margin of the fighting country,
and one could see side by side the
stir of intense military preparation,
the spring awakening of a great agri
cultural region, and the squalid mis
, ery of the unfortunate mass swept
out of the invaded region and settled
down here unable to get any further.
On the right was the Piave river with
the defenses on the heights of Asole
and the Montello region, and ahead
were the snow-covcred peaks of
Mount Grappa and its line of moun
tain defenses stretching west t.o the
Brenta river.
The signs of military preparation
and defense were on every hand, even
at this distance of ten or fifteen miles
back of the actual fighting line, for
everything is prepared ahead for the
possible eventuality of the conflict
surging down to this peaceful plain.
Squads of army engineers were at all
the bridges, digging deep pits for
mines to blow up those structures and
block the advance of the enemy.
Sentinels were on guard every hun
dred feet along the Brenta canal,
, guarding this precious artery of com
munication. Across the fields new
trenches were being dug, so that the
farm country was gradually taking on
the aspect of an armed camp. Barbed
wire entanglements criss-crossed the
--—:—s
lelds. Some of the emplacements for “*■
mtteries and machine guns looked
.•ery solid, and might very well serve
is permanent fortifications. Soldiers
narched along the roads in endless
ines, with great parks of horses,
nules, ammunition and supplies, and
ill the village streets were thick with
loldiers and the mixture of ragged
ind impoverished refugees. At all
he places visited there was the same
procedure the important officials and
dtlzens of the town were gathered
’or a conference on the community’s
needs, the mayor, assessor, head
school teacher and the parish priest,
rhey furnished the exact statistics of
amilics in need, conducting the party
o the chief centers of distress when
:his was possible, and then the Red
“ross started them on a plan of relief
work, with a substantial contribution
according to their need.
“It is not only the donation that
counts," explained Captain Thwaits,
“for that is only a token of the soli
larity of Italy and the United States,
and an assurance to your people and
soldiers that America is with them
to the end. We want it to be a con
tribution to strengthen the spirit of
resistance of every soldier and every
worker behind the lines.”

IUI FOH OIL (MIL
ItHOSS THE NORTH SEI
LONDON, June 24.—A big step for
ward in comercial airplane communi
cation is proposed from Norway in a
plan to inaugurate at once a regular
air mail service between Stavanger
and Aberdeen.
The submarine warfare has made
the sea mails irregular across the
North Sea, and the scheme for an air
plane service is being energetically
pushed forward by a Norwegian com
pany with the backing of the Norweg
ian government. The journey across
the North Sea has been made in five |
hours, and it is estimated that, in a
regular service, the ordinary time
would be under four hours and a half.
The British government, while it
has no airplanes to spare for such
purposes in war time, is prepared to
give the Norwegian company every fa
cility. The belief is general here that
the British Isles should be the most
important center for airplane com
munication batween nations after the
war.
Italy and England in seven hours is
already an accomplished fact, and
America to Britain in sixteen hours
has been recently predicted by experts
as almost certain to come within five
or six years.
