Miss Orlando, on leave of absence from her duties as executive secre- tary of the Italy-America Society, | soon will give a series of lectures throughout the country on Italy's | point of view in the present world crisis, Referring to the peace petition signatories she said: “Instead of seal- ing with their signatures the status| quo of the world, which is intolerable to more than one nation, they should | encourage any change that will ulti- | mately bring about permanent world peace through a real balance of power. “Two aspects * * * should find sympathy. One is the overcrowded | condition of Italy, which makes col- onization essential to her national| health. On the other hand, we have in Ethiopia a country whose standard of living is vastly lower than the modern average, with conditions of slavery and disease that should be | intolerable to every modern mind.” !
