fr- . , . ' THE SUN, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER fH 8 m APPEALS FOR U.S. AID IN ADRIATIC Premie 'Calls on American Friends to Sustain Italy's '.Righteous Claims.' NATION SOLID AND SAFE D'Annunzjo's llaid on Fiumo Is Viewed by Senators as Not at All Harmful. JtV the Anodatei Preu. Rome, Monday, Dec. 8. Premier Nlttl, peaking before tho Senato y On the reply to tho speech from the Throne, made special reference to his recent statement, In which he called upon tho American people, as friends of Italy, not to oppose Italy's righteous claims In the Adriatic. \I told tho bare truth to the American press, through the Associated- Press,\ ho declared, \in saying we en- tered tho war for high sentiment, human Justice and also for the defence of great national Ideals.\ The Premier expressed tho conviction that tho Institutions of Italy are solid and safe, but It was none the less true, he said, that the present hour was ex- tremely difficult for all nations. It was Indispensable for the reconstruction of tie country to forget all discords and unite in a programmo of activity. All must hold fast and give a sense of strength and solidarity, for If the small- est fraction of the Italian race was Btpa rated from tho mother country the w -- had been lost. x \It Is an exaggeration to consider Italy In nn almost desperato condition,\ he continued. \Despite gravo difficulties In some of the Italian cities, we are one of tho countries which has commenced work again. Strikes and disorders exist In nil countries of Europe, and also in America, which was least Injured by the war. On tho eve of a most Impo- rtant financial operation I declare that our financial condition Is one of the most . v solid In Europe. I am firmly convinced that for years Italy will be able to OfWe. la tut bob cyLuX Ao atuu OjS Ojaxlu, (It 1S uc&vue. Clothiori Haberdashers 14 Cortlandt St.. 9-- 11 Diey St POPPING MANHOLES.

It Is es- sential that our ttdrd be the word of confidence, that we should have neither weakness nor want uf faith.\ The Premier expressed the assurance that a revolution was not Impending In Italy. \I protect,\ he said, \against the oampalgn abroad tending to repre- sent Italy on the eve of a revolution. Tho conditions relative to public order are not different here from those pre vailing In tho majority of the loutitrles oi Europe. All necessary meatutrcs have been taken by the Government.\ Senator Mazzlottl declared that the Fpecch from' the throne should contain the programme 'of tho Government, which was not the caso this time. It comprised only vague expressions, and ro Idoas or broad vision of the present Italian situation at home or abroad. Allusion to the redeemed territories, he pointed out, embodied no special greeting to Trent or Trlest. There was nbsoluto silence on the Flume question, but tho Senators., na good Italians, await Anxiously the decision on the fata of Flume. Senator Mazzlottl did not believe that D'Annunzlo's enterprlso had Injured the cause of national aspirations. \If occupation of Flume by D'Annun-zi- o had not occurred,\ ho continued, \the Italian troops would, have been removed from Flume and replaced by soldiers of tho Allies. Those who participated In D'Annunzlo's expedition disobeyed mili- tary discipline, but obeyed a great Ideal and would return to fight for tho mother country It need be.\ Senator Decupls also expressed the opinion that tho D'Annunzlo raid had not hurt Italy, adding : \Indeed the 'Allies are now In accord with us In finding a solution satisfactory to our national sentiments. D'Annunzlo's movement cannot have a bad Influence cn the discipline of the army. The dan- ger for tho army consists rather In amnesties during and after a war. In the case of a new war who will be able to keep soldiers under the, colors when they know that amnesty for deserterb will follow the war?\ Senator Roland Itlccl suggested that Parliament bo associated with the Crown in tho conclusion of treaties and the right of amnesty. The reply to tho speecn irom mo throno was unanimously adopted. Pre- mier Nlttl's allusion to Italy's Important financial oDerat ons referred to tno pro posed loan of two billion of dollars.
