add to cart   close window

This article reports on military policy announced by Benito Mussolini, the Italian dictator. Mussolini has announced that American citizens of Italian extraction will not be seized for military service when traveling in Italy. In the first phase, the official announcement takes particular care to emphasize Italy's "right" to seize the American citizens if she so desires. The second point which Mussolini seeks to obscure by his magnanimous renunciation is the continuation of the active fascist campaign in the U.S. Mussolini's efficient organization in America is functioning to get human and financial war material from the U.S.
