Anyone who has ever read an editorial by Signor Mario Carli, personal friend of Signor Benito Mussolini and editor of the arch-Fascist daily L'Impero ("Orders is Orders"), will recognize his characteristic style in the following comment on a football game played last week in Vienna...
...Italian royal hymn-obviously a gross insult to Fascisti who never sing anything except their own anthem, "Youth! Youth! Springtime of Beauty!" The umpire of the match, an Englishman, disqualified two Italians for roughness. Broken lanyards prevented the hoisting of the Italian flag. The Austrian bandmaster had no Fascist sheet music, supposed that the Italian royal anthem was the correct thing to play...
From India to Canada came swart, white-bearded Sir Rabindranath Tagore. From London came the British Broadcasting Co.'s Education Director J. C. Stobart. From-Czechoslovakia came interpreters of the famed-"Sokol movement" for national physical education. Fascist Italy and Imperial Japan sent representatives. So did Australia and New Zealand. No U.

In sunny Palermo cameras even caught Monsignor Lavitrano as he ostentatiously deposited unsealed a ballot plainly emblazoned with the Fascist device.* Placid, bespectacled Pope Pius XI and other churchmen actually resident in the new Papal State could not vote because they are no longer citizens of Italy. Dopesters estimated that His Holiness' influence had flung into the scale of Fascismo at least 1,000,000 extra votes. A sadder...
