This article focuses on political and social developments. Political leader Benito Mussolini as a fire-eater plays no new role, but he has been playing it of late in a manner that occasions some concern, in speeches at Florence, Leghorn, Milan, and elsewhere in Italy, delivered before vast crowds who responded with frenzied applause, he has been descanting upon the great achievements of fascism, pointing to the splendid future which he sees awaiting Italy, and glorifying force and arms in a fashion to suggest that if he does not himself exactly intend to provoke a war, he would not be at all averse to see a war actually break out.
