ORIGINATED IN ROMAN TINES Fiume a Foothold on 'the 'Eastern Adriatic’ Where ‘italians Clung: Fast Despite Steady Influx of Slavs in the Interior—City Bears Evidence of Early Italian - Culture—Very Small Proportion of the Population of the City is Hungarian. * Data-in the records of the National Geographical society throw strong light on the places which figured in rival territorial claims of Italy and Jugo-Slavia. Of the city most hotly disputed it is eaid: “Flume 1s another* of those ,foot- holds on the eastern Adriatic where Itallans clupg fast despite the steady fnflux of the Slavs in the interior and even into’ Fiume itsélf. Thus the city bears evidence -of early Itallan cul- ture. ' It figured as a potent Slavo factor in the turmoil of Balkan poli- . tics and it felt strongly the influence of Hungary upon its thriving indus- tries and fast growing commerce. If Trieste was the Bremen of Austria, Flume was the Hamburg of ‘the Hun- garian kingdom. “Magyar gerrymande?ing caused it to be annexed to Hungary in 1870 in spite ‘of ' the protest of 'Croatia, 'to of 1848.- - Consideration for its ‘value ms a. seaport rather than' for its citizens - prompted - its establish- ment ‘a8 a royal fréé town. ; “Despite the Hungatrian interest -in the ‘city ite'prewar population was 00 per cent' Itallan- and:Slav, with' the Jtalians slightly predominant. - Only about half the remaining. tenth were Hungarians. The Slays included, Oroats, Serbs and Slovenes.. . As.im- portant to Hungary as is New. Yerk or Boston to the ' United States, Fiume's total population is not much greater than such suburbs of ‘those American .ports as East Orange, N. J., or Brockton, Mass. Three Harbors at Fiume. “Fiume is situated on the northeast shores of the Guif of Quarnero, only 70 miles by rail southeast of Its trade rival, Trieste. Across the bay is the popular~ summer resort, = Abbazia, famed for its evergreen laurel and profusion of roses, to which tens of thousands of visitors formerly thronged each summer. The older town, distinctly” Ttallan, is. built (ml the hillside overlooking the gulf. The newer city lles petrer the water front. There are three harbors. The largest, | accommodating 150 large vessels, is protected by a breakwater half a mile long. The quay is two miles slong. “Refore the war Fiume’s manufac- turing plants included a governthent tobacco factory, fhie Whitehead tor- pedo works, a rice ~xhelling factory, ft petrolenn factory and muany snmllt-{‘ plants, among which were sawmills and paper mills. Its fisherles consti- tuted an Important industry, It ex- ported sugar, grain, flour, horses ant! timber, . ‘“Originating in Roman times, Fiume was destroyed hy Charlemagne in 799, The Franks ruled it for a covsider- ahle period. " Then it passed to feu- dal lords until Emperor Frederiek TI1L made it n part of Austrin, This em- peror, who as an_archduke of Aus- trin was Frederick V., was the son of Ernest, the ‘man of iron ahd Cymburga, o Polish woman from whom the Huapshurgs are thought to | kave inherited the protruding lip which sometimes beeame o disfigure- | ment, His long and inconsequential reizn is reealled chiefly heeause he puzzled lexicographers hy leaving on hig books and pettery and having in- seribed on his tonih the [nitials ‘A, E. 1. O. U The most generally ne- cepted explanation s that the initials stood for the Latin, ‘Austria Est Im- peraris Orbi Universo,” meaning, ‘All the earth Is subject to Austeia.” This | was a promissory note of future Ane ! trinn greatness which Frederick did little to realize, ProclaimeC a Free Port. “Charles VI proclaimed: Flume a free port.. Maria Theresa first united it with Hungary. pied by the Freneh and Brftich, it reverted to Austrin and later was re- stored to Hungary before it was added to Croatia. “Small wonder that Dalmatia should | form cne of the most sharply con- tesfed regions in’the rival Itgitan and Jugo-Slav claims, for this strip of sea coast land for eight centuries has heen swept by continuous raclal tem- pests, With an area about egual to Connécticut, Dalmatia is so elongated that nowhere is it more than 35 miles wide and it tapers down to a mile at Cattaro. “With a climate of extreme tempera- tures, hot and dry when the sirocco sweeps over it and cold and wet when the dread bors or ‘wind of death’ comes from the sea, peasants find life & struggle, The land is not fertile, ‘much of it ix not arable at all. 'The Croats and Serbians constitute the Slavic, element in Dalmatia. They speak the same language but employ two alphabets, The Serbs use the Russian and the Croats the Latin let- ters and alphabet.
