Page Six. THE .REGISTER-GUARD, EUGENE. OREGON April 21 Italian Boys Have No Chance to Forget They Are Future Soldiers; Rome Calm By MILTON BRONNER (NEA Serv. Staff Correspondent) ROME, April 20 War-like threats thundering Intermit tently by Premier Benito Musso lini shake the world witn lear, but Roman citizens in recent weeks have pursued their daily tanks apparently unperturbed by events to come. If Fascist army officers have taken precautions against air raids, they have done it so clever ly that no one would suspect it. This is in direct contrast to fear-plagued London where 1 borers work day and night con structing air raid shelters, where district wardens make nightly calls to sec whether civilians know how to don their gas masks, where the Houses of Parliament echo daily with urgent questions about the progress of air defense, where "A. R. P." (Air Raid Pre cautions) is a household phrase. .More Soldiers in Berlin Italy is today a great military power, but you see fewer officers and soldiers in all the avenues and centers in Rome than you will observe in a two-minute walk in Berlin. German big city streets swarm with Brown Shirts. Not many Black Shirts are or dinarily seen in Rome. Today in Berlin you could not walk 100 feet without a Storm Trooper shaking a tin box in your face and asking for a contribution to the poor relief fund. There is no such annoyance cither to the native or the visitor in the streets of Rome. The fash ionable quarters are crowded with the trim, trig, handsome Ro man young women wearing their pretty spring hats and dresses. Italian Boys ' But Italian males from baby hood up are not allowed to for get that they are material for soldiering. Always there is held before them the vision that Mussolini has given them that of an Ital ian empire which some day shall equal ancient Rome. Even in the nursery, boy babies are given a taste for the glories of military life. The little lead Ksldier as a toy has come back and with 1939 realism. In one shop I saw not only the ujualy Italian lead soldiers, in fantry, cavalry, artillery with guns, tanks and airplanes, but also troopers throwing hand gre nades, wielding flame throwers Ig v te I the militaristic youth organization founded recruits are between the ages of 6 and 8 rnOVS OF THE WOLF.'

There was a gas-blinded soldier being led by a dog, a badly wounded man, his head in the lap of a nurse, another being carried by a fellow soldier. There was a full Red Cross ambulance corps complete with nurses and doctors and with cases of wounded soldiers of all kinds and descriptions. Sunday Sleepers Disturbed Late Sunday morning sleepers often are disturbed by the roll of drums, echoed back by the stones of the ancient Roman Fo rum. This particular Sabbath students of the University of Na ples had come to visit Rome. Their trip was arranged under a' plan, similar to one existing in Germany, which takes groups of workers and others around their country on cheap excursions. The university boys were halt ed, and rested at ease in front of a wall near the Forum. .Maps Show Past Here are permanently display ed huge maps in bas relief. Coun tries, outside Roman influence in ancient days and Italian influence in modern times, are displayed in black. Those which were part of the ancient Roman empire and those which today are part of the Italian empire arc displayed in white. The first map shows all Eu rope black, save for a tiny circle. This is the village of Rome founded, accofding to the myth, by Romulus and Remus. A series of maps then shows how, from great Caesar to great Caesar, Rome extended its grip upon the then known world. Finally, there is a map of today, showing Italy Sicily, Sardinia. Libya and Ethiopia the modern Italian empire, so far. Books Tell Glory What maps do not exhibit, lit erature does. Every bookshop displays books on Tunis, giving reasons why Italy has made im perious demands upon France. Another book, being pushed at the present time, is one called "Italy and France" by Virginio Gayda, the famous Roman editor, who is supposed to be the direct mouthpiece of Mussolini himself. This book goes back in history and takes all the points at issue between Italy and France and which arc very apt soon to be stressed with emphasis by Mussolini. 4-II CLUB MEETS GOSHEN.

W) A complete shutdown of the nation's soft coal mines on May 5, unless a new contract is signed before that date, has been ordered by the United Mine Workers. The order, climaxing a six weeks deadlock in negotiations between the union and operators for the eight-state Appalachian area, threatened to pull 125,000 men from the bituminous work ings in 13 states. Approximately 350.000 have been 'die iu the Ap palachian region and in Alabama since the two-year contract died April 1. CIO Chairman John L. lewis, who heads the mine workers, also has said he would call out 100,000 anthracite miners, if necessary, to force on agreement. This would leave 585,000 miners idle and in crease the growing menace cf a national coal shortage.
