The Shape of Things
January 25, 1941 issue

add to cart   close window

This article discusses several political and economic issues. The Italian ruler Benito Mussolini has, as usual, ended with an official announcement that two dictators reached "complete agreement" on all issues. Since their last meeting his armies have been soundly thrashed in Albania and Libya, his fleet has been chased out of Taranto, Italy with heavy losses, and his East African Empire has begun to crumble. He must, therefore, have gone to German ruler Adolf Hitler as a suppliant begging for more aid, and if this has been promised to him people may be sure he was required to pay a steep price.
