Venice, at this time of the year, is the mecca of 'tourists. The trains that come into Santa, Lucia station from all parts of Europe, the motor cars and busses that drive up to Piazzale Roma after crossing the large, two-mile long cement Littoria bridge which connects the island city with the mainland, the ships from all parts of the globe which anchor in Bacino San Marco, in front of the Ducal Palace or near the Dogana, are now pouring their streams of happy travellers into this city of sunshine and color, marble and sea, LVIIKMEIIIEEIIIIIIIIBIIIIIIIIIEEEEEWEI B, .

Little motor launches churn up the placid waters of the lagoon as they race out around the island of San Michele towards Nu- rano where glass-working is an art which only the glass-workers of Nu.. rano possess, and at nights now, the Canal Grande is the magic, soul in- spiring, street of water where gon- dolas pass by ever so quietly. And here we must inveigh against those poor, demented, prosaic persons who go so far as to say that motor-boats were not being used in Venice beea- use of the cost of gasoline. The fact is motor-boats have been con... stantly used for public services, while gondolas are the only logical, possible means of communication in Venice, but then, no 'motor-boat of the finest construction, could give the thrill and pleasure of a gondola ride.

Here in Italy such talk is so ridiculous as not to be taken seriously. Sanctions were not felt by the ordinary man in the street at all. As a mat- ter of fact, it was impossible to find someone who complained about them. Of course, they may have ca- used some inconveniences but they were not at all evident. And now that sanctions have been buried af- ter having failed so miserably, now that the Abyssinian campaign has been brought to a conclusion not al- together as prophesied by the no. Despite all the adverse publicity given Italy by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Lord Cdeil, in England, the C. C. F. and othersrof the same clique in Canada, it seems that the power of attraction of il Duee's land remains undiminished and its beauty untarnished. This fact is merely established for the use of those who like to imagine that the country of Dante has blighted its character by the events of this last year, and that people will now Te.. fuse to come to Italy. Italy has al.. ways been the land of art ind sun- shine but Mussolini's government has enhanced this reputation and made of Italy a land worth while visiting for even the most fastidious traveller whether in search of art or comfort. It may be said of Italy that it is the best organized country in the world from a tourist point of View. As a matter of fact, there is always some attraction, some impotu. tant exhibition, some magnificent fair, in progress. Here in Venice this year, three major exhibitions which are drawing thousands of visi- tors are the 20th Modern Art Exhi- bition, the 17th Century Exhibit at not: Articoli di varieta', ma copertina 'ions',a eolori, fotografie di uomini e di man eventi, un esteso notiziario iziteras. tnat-'zionalts, una bellissima novella, una find pagina umoristica, eritiehe lettera- o u t'rie, teatrali e politiche, formano que- ca- i sto nuovo numero de LA SETTIMA. they NA che é nel suo secondo anno di now ', vitae che ha trovato un pesto affet- af- Pyyo e gradito nella immense. fami- now glia italiana d'Ameriea. has} La rivista si pubwa in New t al- York: 626 Fifth Avenue - Palazzo no. d'Italia.

This policy would, moreover, save them from appearing as ridiculous as they; have shown themselves to be in their) conduct during the colonial war.

But all that is over and Canada also has abolished sanctions. As for Italy, it can be truly said that the Italian people are as ready to bury the hatchet and forgive her ex-al- lies as she was, and is, ready to take up arms against anyone who tries to menace her vital interests. The whole world should thank Mussolini for having built such a united nati.. on and such a powerful war-machine which enabled him to get justice for Italy in Africa while maintaining peace in Europe, for had Italy been militarily weak, Geneva would have wrought her injustice'and Europe would have had her war.
