The 1920 census showed that more than half of the, people of the United Urates are now city dwellers.

There are some who find comfort in BOnies positive proof of tho tremen the belief that "the city is the hope ,()US influence i exercise. a aet forili) of democracy," but they have not read ln ,hfi rollowiiiB lines from our little, their history. The story of the ancient rri-n "I.. H. W." 1 world, of mediaeval Italy, of modern 'BinKi g y l(l ),1(s u joym,B France and still more modern llttissia, gives their theory the lie. General Badoglio is altogether right but his statement, which concerns it self Inively with the economic phase is nanny oroad enougn. ine poiiucui history of cities has usually shown first thi. rule of 'business, then of mohJ and then of tyrants or corrupt oligar chies. No tyrant has ever long op pressed a race which owned the land it cultivated and no mob. It's worth thinking ubout, this Italian soldier's warning.
