Signor Mussolini (Premier of Italy), in a remarkable article in the new paper “Gerarchia.” says that he has no use for Liberalism. “Russia and Italy,” ho declares, “have shown that one can govern without it. Liberalism means that a few men overrule all the others allowing freedom of action to those avowedly hostile to the State. History has no example of a Government exclnsivelv based on the will of the people and renouncing the use of force. The will of the people is as shifty as the sands of .the seashore. “The truth is that men are tired of liberty.

Cable Assn.
