i (By United Press.)
UOMI3. July 1. (By Mall.) A
year ago, the Italian armies were
within 12 miles of Trieste, and on
the direct road to tho interior of
Austria. Today they are holding
the lino of the Piave River, over
looking the rich Venetian plain, now
In tho hands of the enemy. ,.. .
But this picture of territorial re
linquishment flndB the Italian peo.
plo nearer to true victory and real
ization of national aspirations than
they wore tho day before the dis
aster at Caporotto. That triumph
of German Intrigue and propagan
da, resulting in tho rout of the Ita
lian army, and the retreat to the
piavo, was -the first step toward
the 'creation of the present national
eollduiity of Italy for prosecution
of the war. . : '.
. The extent of Italy's rejuvenation
Is illustrated by her tremendous de
feat ot the Austria"n offensive,.
which begin alonsr tho 100-mile.
front from the .Asingo plateau to
the Adratic, tho morning ot June
16. ..- : ::',.
' Unlike tne previous offensive, this
effort found the Italian armies
ready and waiting. British and
French troops fought shoulder-to-shouldcr
with the Italians In the
mountain , region, and in iha last
days of the offensive, Amorlcan air
men rendered important co-opora-tloit
. ''".'
, Ausinaiis Cross l'hive. '
Tho Austrians, ' who madd this
drive minus tho German aid which
had characterized tholr. formor
campaigns, were stopped in '. tho
north-, but succeeded in crossing
tho . Piavo at several points. Their
greatest penetration here did not
exceed, five, miles, howovor. Their
buses wero stupendous. Nearly a
million men wore engaged by them
and their killed, wounded and mis
sing were estimated at 250,000.
Tho Allies took tho Initiative on
the mountain front on the second
day, and eventually re-establishod
tho old line there. Tho tido turned
on the Piave during tho fifth day.
Ruins iu the mountain region flood
ed the river, preventing the Aus
trians bringing , up -reinforcements,
ammunition or food. On - Juno 22,
tho Austrian retreat began. In
some places it becam a rout. They
lost mnro than 25,000 prisoners.
After winning back their old' lines
along the t'inve. the Italians, Brit
ish and French began systematic
local enterprises which have been
successful in winning territory, in
flicting casualties and acquiring
prisoners. These continue as this
is written.
Propaganda Offensive.
The Central Powers' biggest of
fensive against Italy during the
past year was the attack ot tho
morale of hor soldiers nnd civil
ians. ' it coincided very nearly with
tho various "affairs" in France. It
was finally crushed and defeated by
tho thorough exposure of Germany's
treachery after, tho military 'defeat.
Tho moral rebound which came
to Italy after the stemming of the
Austro-German rush on the Piave
was furtlior strengthened by sever
al other factors. Probably the
chief - one among them was the
creation vof the Allied ''single
front." Long before the appoint-
moirt of Gcnoial Foch as supreme
commander "on the Western fronts,
the Italians wero made to feel tho
unity of Allied Interests which tho
British and French expeditions look
up their positions on the new line
ot defense. That was ftor tho
Italians, alone, had halted the ene
my, and the best appreciation of
this feat is given In tho words of
a high Allied official, who said:
"Italy's resistance on the line
of tho Piavo will live among tho
most famous deeds of battles of all
ages. It Is not too much to say
that the causo of the Alllanco would
have been severely compromised,
if not morn, had not the Italian
troops stood tholr" ground and turn
ed back the invaders from Italy on
those celebrated defenses. I firm
ly believe that that great feat of
arms not only had an objective re
sult of enormous importance; I be
lieve It has tieen of enormous ser
vice to tho Italians thmselvcs. They
have come out of that trial with
grouler unity, with great self-confi-deiice,
and, if possible, with greater
courage than they ever had before."
Itnliiius Tn. France, '
Italy has shown her appreciation
of the lessons and results of the
I'lave action by the dispatch of an
Ttallan force to France. Her con
fidence In tho reality of Inter-Allied
solidarity is further confirmed by
the arrival of American troops.
Another great event In Italy's
history of tho past year Is tho
Home conference of representative:',
of tho subject races of Austria and
tho resolution which resulted from
tho proceedings there. For many
months previously, practically from
the time of the Russian revolution,

The principal attack of these per

aims of Italy and her correspond

wards the aims of tho Austrian na
tionalities. The: propaganda had a
certain success' in that It lod to
continual bickering In sections of
the Allied press and a vague, gener

Whether any serious menace to
Allied unity would huvo rosulled it
is difficult to Bay, but at any rato
the Italian parliament, seeing the
menace of the situution, callqd a
conference of representatives of the
Czech, Slovak, Rumanian and Jugo
slav groups now under Austrian
domination. The meetings wero
hold with the sanction of tho Ital
ian government .-There was a full
and frank discussion of all tho pro
blems and of supposed -conflicting
aims of Italy and tho other races
represented,- and two very satisfac
tory results wore achieved. First,
Italy rccognizod' the jiistlco and
right of the subject races of Aus
tria ' to' ihdepoij'dbnce',1 'and; stJcond-:
ly, she acknowledged that there was
no conflict between that principle
and her own war alms. These de
clarations had so- further bencficlul
effect In strengthening the civilian
and military morale ot Italy and in
dispelling tho vague cloud which
had appeared to thioatcn Italian
Allied relations.? : i

The 'Importance of the conference-is

' That's ii question which puzzles many of us. . .

And candy contaais some sugar.
So how can we kiow how much to cat.
In tho first placet we must not forget that our system needs
some stgur, nnd thislhe I'oud Administration recognizes.
We Must icmcmlilr, too, that 3omc people like their sugar in
coffee, sonic m fruit ind some in other ways. If you like yours
in the form of cnndl, cat some candy as much as tho Food
Administration pcrmiVs a certain share is yours.
The Food Administration i keeping in close touch with the
.Most women who have perfect
