Bnck in the "jrood ol' days" colors were colors and shades were shades whether applied to dresses, doors or donkeys. , Not bo in this modern age.

More power hiibiifii is .inutile! iiuibiji, iuu ference of political thinking in n regime like the present one. Most outsiders, and many insiders, will not agree that polit ical purity means 100 per cent fascism. Even in the other realms where this censorship Is to be applied, it may bu sadly oveitlone. Italy has been great country, ns great us any in the world in many departments of human life, and especially great in tho arts and sciences. What' would have happened if such a system of control as is now proposed hud existed dining the Italian' renaissance? Would there have been any Michaelangclos or Leonardo da Vincis or I'enevenuto Cellinis, or any Dantes or liocaccios or Tussos, if there had been political censors to scrub, cut, de nature and steiiiize everything they did?
