- "We cannot express to you what this

Italy, and for the last year and a half
correspondent for the Italian pre tn
London. "Tour news service has told
. us of shipbuilding, of Industrial ac
tivity, of munition manufacture, but
until we saw we could fid, realise the
tenth of the truth.
"We have seen President Wilson, and
In talking t6 htm realized we were ad
dressing the most powerful man in the
world, and we saw In him hot only his
wonderful ability, but the united nation
behind him.
-."And we have a story to tell our
people that will forever silence- the Ger

divided American people. W know
that the American people, are. going to

'"And we realise that It was nothing

I Robert Rudd Whiting, editor of
Ainslee's magazine, who as representa
tive of the foreign bureau of the com
mittee on publto Information is accom
panying the Italian Journalists on their
trip.
Italy WQ1 Gala Renewed Bop
We specialize here; the Italian are
educated, I think, more liberally. They
have a broader viewpoint, seem able to
comprehend the international view
point more quickly. .
"They have made a careful study of
conditions in the United- States, and I
believe the nation will profit hugely
from their trip through the country.
The trip has been successful. I believe,
In Its every particular and .Italy wilt
take heart anew aa a result of their
findings, which come first hand through
men the people there know and trust."
We had heard in a general way
what America la doing tn building air
planes," said Dr. Agresti, the "old man"
of the party. He baa been In tha news
paper business for 40 years. "But we
didn't begin - to coneeive what stupen
dous .work was being accomplished. At
Vancouver tnla afternoon we began to
realise what the United States means
by winning a victory In the alf. Such
enormous quantities of spruce wood !
Such a splendid plant such fin young
men. -such earnest' enthusiasm! we
cannot but win with America with us.
Address Brings Apptante
"We have seen great sight in the
East, at . Bethlehem, at Pittsburg, at
Hog island, but truly I may say noth
ing has Impressed me more than the
visit to Portland' and Vancouver. It la
another irrefutable fact that the United
States - is solidly behind the war
program."
At the Chamber of Commerce lunch
eon Saturday noon, the Italian guests
were warmly welcomed. Robert W,
Schmeer, presided, introducing Mayor
George I Baker, who welcomed-' the
Italian editor on behalf of the Cham
ber and the city. M. O. Montrezza' of
Portland, who met the party In San
Francisco J a representative of the
Chamber of Commerce and the Roman
Legion, introduced the guests, and Count
Franco Ralneri. on behalf of the dis
tinguished foreigners, responded In an
eloquent address. It waa hi first
speech -' in English, but ' as Cbunt
Ralneri is a poet as well as an editor.
and an art critic as well as a political
writer, his speech was one that brought
round after round of long continued ap
plause. ',
"Although in America only a few
weeks, you will permit me a confession.
which. If a little audacious. Is neverthe
less sincere and flattering to me, and
that is that I consider myself some
what of an American already.
"I do not believe that the right of
your citlsenship was ever acquired more
speedily and more enthusiastically by
anyone and you- will pardon the pre
sumption when informed that my Eng
lish repertoire is very scant and modest,
What I wish to' tell you above all is
that 2 (attracted by your serene and
generous mentality when your great
president. Woodrow Wilson, answering
your call; placed your young democracy
at the head of the countries fighting
German arrogance and brutality) would
deem it a great honor to be permitted
to share with you your duties, to be
worthy of your rights and privileges.
The sentiments of idealism and human
ity that caused you Americans to join
us In the great struggle for liberty and
democracy fi&ve long since been conse
crated to history, but what we did not
fully know and the central power prop
agandist wants to minimise is the won
derful effort put forth by your nation In
service to an ideal ; what could and
should be don to servo practically that
very ideal that mad you leaders In
the world's war. And so It is that for
over a year from far and breathlessly
we have been listening to the charmed
song of your Immense shops and ship
yards created overnight ' by . the magic
touch of your genius and patriotic 'de
votion. It 1 a wonderful manifesta
tion of your strength, ot.your will, of
your determination. It is the way you
Americans construe your duty to your
great nation and to the expectant world
and It Is the only way.

WOMEN HELPTORAISE
IN 7 SURPLUS STATES
Corn Experts Agree Crop in These
States Will Approach Total of
1,400,000,000 Bushels.
Des Moines, Iowa, Aug. 31. (U. P.)
Th hand that rocks the crable this year
also till the sell and gathers the grain.
The farm wemen In the seven surplus
corn states have done their share in
whipping the kaiser by aiding In the
planting aAd cultivation of a corn crop
In these states that will approach
1.400,000,000 bushels.
,; Corn experts tonight were practically
agreed that the above figure Is a fair
estimate of the corn crop in the surplus
states. They estimated, through reports
recently received, that th nation's av
erage per aero in corn would be 27 M
bushels for a crop of 2.750,000.000
bushels.
. While corn in most states was in A
bad way about a month Sgo, tho recent
hot days and cool nights , with consid
erable precipitation, has brought the
grain around in good shape and in many
parts of Iowa it win mature several
weeks, sooner than usual.
The city woman made up only a small
percentage of the farmerettes. While
some women from the cities aided, their
work was mostly In the home, relieving
the women of the farm for the harder
duties in the field.
The women are still on th Job and
will stick through the shocking 'and
husking seasons.

D. Haywood "B, Bill" long a mili

here tonight. With 93 others he awaited
the beginning of a prison term after
conviction ' on charges of' hampering
America's war work.
Barred together tn one wtngySf the
county jau nuuaing, tno prisoners isoea
their punishment In various ways.
In Jail, as In i court, Haywood was
calm and assured. Threes times previ
ously a defendant in court, and having
a legal training, h didn't quail when
called to face th eminent Judge Lai
dis. Neither was he defiant, as some of
his companion were. Throughout th
trial he has been counsellor and op
timist for th others.
"Cheer up, boys I" he would encour
age them, and smiles lightened sullen
faces when he made a back-slapping
trip through the prisoners dock.
