ROME, December 18.
Signor Mussolini is tasking a stupendous effort to organise a worthy ceremoney for the royal wedding on Janaary 8. He is sending a magnificentlydecorated special train from Italy to Brussels to fetch the Princess, her parents, and the ladies-in-waiting. Hundreds of workmen are busy painting the train and banging the carriages with tapestries in the Italian colours of red, white, and green. Signor Mussolini is also organising a procession showing all the peasant costumes from the Tyrol to Sicily. Five thousand foot and 400 horsemen will part. Tha procession will be accompanied by characteristic music and dancing. It will pass through the streets of Rome during the wedding celebrations, and later will be repeated in the provincial centres.
