He named it Green- land. As Greenland is a part of the as E mainland. Neither did Columbus. He never saw the mainland. Erik the Red was successful in es: tablishing a large colony in Green- land. It was organized into a re- public of which Gardar was the ital, and Erik the Red the chief m: istrate. Greenland was the first American republic. In the course of time the people were converted to Christianity, several churches and a |cathedral were built and Greenland got its own bishop. There is a list! of seventeen bishops who resided suc- cessfully in Greenland. There is a story that the mainland) of North America had alreday been | seen by one Bjarne Herjulfson, on a trip to Greenland in 986, It happened that the oldest of Erik the Red's three sons, Leif by name, made a voyage to Norway in the year of 999. There he became ac- qQuainted with Norway’s famous king, Olav ‘Tryggvasson. The king was himself a Christian, and had begun converting the people of Norway to Christianity. He had also persuaded the parliament of Iceland to adopt Christianity as the religion of all Iceland. He persuaded Leif Eriksson to accept the creed of the Galilean, and, when Leif had been baptized, the king requested him to go as a missionary to Greenland to convert his father’s colonists to Christianity. Leif accepted this mission, but he de- cided that he, on his way to Green- land, would look up and explore those lands which had been seen by his kinsman, Bjarne Herjulfson, in 986. With his party of thirty-six men he reached first the land Bjarne had seen last, that is, Newfoundland. He went ashore, made some explorations, found that the country was covered with rocks, and named it Helluland. He then proceeded to the southwest and found the second land seen by Bjarne, found that it was heavily wooded and named it Markland. Then he continued his voyage and on discovering the first land seen by Bjarne he sailed in a bay, out of this bay, into a river, out of this river into a lake, out of this lake into another river which he ascended as far as it was deep enough to float his ship. Then he and his men went ashore, built a large house and decided to spend the winter there. This descrip- tion fits admirably Boston bay, the Charles river between Boston and Cambridge, the Boston Back bay, also between Boston and Cambridge, and the Charles river emptying into the Back bay. It seems then that Leif Eriksson and his party must have built their house at what is now called Gerry's Landing, not far from where Harvard university is now lo- cated. On account of the abundance of grapes found in this new land, Leif Eriksson decided to call the country Vinland. Years later it became Vin- land the Good. After spending the winter in Vin- land, Leif loaded his ship with Vin- land products and arrived in Green- land in the spring of 1001, when the parliament was in session and pre- vailed upon it to pass a resolution de- claring the country Christian.

Let us examine the economic side of the question. Italy is a growing It has @ population upward of 44,000,000 people and this popula- tion is rapidly increasing. The density of population is 360 people per square mile. Its area is small, being about the same as our state of New Mexico. Italy in former years had an out- let for her surplus millions in the as yet undeveloped countries of the western hemisphere. With the tight- ening of immigration laws in these countries, Italy is faced with the problem of finding other means to take care of her people. Her land is already producing to capacity and she has no surplus. There remains for Italy one of two alternatives: (1) to lower her stand- ard of living so as to be able to feed her people at home, or (2) to expand overseas and found colonies into which she can send her surplus popu- nation.
