WAHI1INOTON, I). C, May 13,
That rorhlddlng, itlrry, fort-strewn
way, which, as tho horder lino lie
tween, Austria and Italy, goes danc
ing over tho peaks and passes of tho
Houth Tyroleso Alps, Is pictured 'In
Its wonderful scenle sdendors and In
Its strategic uxoluslveness hy Klor
onco Craig Alhrecht lu n recent com
muulratlon to tho National Geogra
phic society, An ominous Interest
nttachos to thn writer's report upon
two carefree summers spent In ex
ploring (his frontier country, ns, In
tho threatening relations now exist
ing between Vienna ami Home, Its
delightful area may soon hecomo a
region of terror, tho theater of tho
most costly mountain fighting of his
tory, with each hill a mound of de
struction and each valley a death
trap.
Itlval Fortification
Kor years, both Austria and Italy
have heon keenly exerting them
selves lo seo which could fortify lis
side of tho border tho best. At great
expense, and as secretly as possible,
this work ha heon pushed along
through tho years of peace, until to
day cither defensive chain Is a
mighty one, stronger than tho Carpa
thian lino, stronger than tho Argomio
or the Vosges. Hpeaklng of tho stra
tegic exctuslvencfls of this way, sown
thickly with forts, block-houses, bat
teries and gun pits, and of her diffi
culties In securing photographs dur
ing her two peaceful summer cxcur-'l
slons, Mrs. Albrecht says:
"Then only tho real meaning of
those grim fortifications which face
each other In long rows across Al
pine valleys rnuio homo to us; then
only wo sensed tho hitter reality of
tho soldier's calling we, to whom
Hid horrors of war worn happily all
unknown, l'ortx until then (tho out
break of Ho rope's war) had been un
considered, aavo as they Interfered
with picture-making; thn soldier's
llfn had appeared solely from Its pic
tures(un side.
IVnkx IlrUllo With FH
"Ono might think that tho great
chain of tlio Alps would thomsolves
bo sufficient fortification, a natural
bulwark between north and south,
between Saxon and Latin. Hut the
plno has over yearned for tho palm,
tho palm for tho plno; Invaders thero
havo been from either side; so to
day a Una of forts runs bristling oror
peaks, passes, and highways llko cat
tenser upon a stone wall."
.l-orts along tho Swlss-Italo front
ier are Inconspicuous, the writer con.
tlnues, though it In posslblo (hat
Italy maintains as proportionately
strong defenses hero as upon her Aus
trian or French frontiers. How
ever, she makes less fuss about her
Swiss line of dofense. France, tho
writer says, Is a little mora modest;
or alio requests tho kodakor not to
trespass upon certain terlrtory nor
photograph In certain directions.
Hut thero Is far mora earnestness on
tho Austro-ltallan frontier.
Tymlw Holdlcr
Mrs. Albrecht tells of tho wonder
ful efficient soldiers or Austrian Ty
rol, tho Kalserjoger (Imperial Hunt
era), of whom many notices havo
eoMio from tho Carpathians and from
Ilosnla, where Montenegrins, moit
famed among mountain fighters, mot
their match In Tyroleso Katsorjagor.
Of these corpamon, Mrs. Albrecht
says:
"Hecrultod fcolely In Tyrol, accus
tomed to Its high altitudes and Its
steep mountain aides from babyhood,
hunters by birth, thoy need little drill
savo In tho codo and manual of arms.
Up tho thickly wondod, steep moun
tjWn Hides thoy scramblo quicker than
tho sturdy, Hiiro-footed ponies which
carry tho light artillery thoy uso;
and, In case or need, many of tho men
can thenisolvos shoulder a small can
non on a day'n climb. Inured to tho
hardest ot bods and or faro, Imbued
with a deop lavq or country, ploua at
most to suporstltlaua almost to a
point ot uncanny fear, fond of n
rough Joko and t rougher dancing,
Hinging marvolausy sweet and true,
not very quick-witted poslbly, but
swift-footed and thorough, thoy are
an ottoctlvo body of men, both n ap
pearance and Borvlco."
