[==INEW BRITAIN HEF CLUETOETRUSEAN HISTORY UNEARTHED Story of Etruria, Foreranner' of Rome, Shrouded in Mystery Washingeon, Dee. 9.—"“One of the most puzzlin, gmysteries of history the source of Etruscan civilization, famous rival of Rome, may be solved by the discovery announced from Ttaly ot a very ancient city near Fer- rara,” explains a bulletin from the National Geographic society, and con- tinues: “Tombs recently found beneath the mud deposited by the Po River are of a period antedating the founding of Rome and indicate an Etruscan or- izgin. Romulus, founder of Rome, suckled by*a she-wolf according to legend, found the Etruscan people firmly estabilshed when he began Jome, Legend gives them a league of twelve cities thriving on the rich fertile plain to which Egypt, Greece, and Africa paid bounteous tribute in zold, silver, scarabs, rare vases and priceless gems, Pisa, famous today for its leaning tower, was a small vil- lnge of rich, extravagant, voluptuous ¥truria. All the great citles have vanished Fell Victims to Luxury. “Etruscans are supposed to have entered Ttaly from the Po region. Whether they came from Macedonia, the home of Alexander the Great, or whether 1hey were a colony establish- I by Greece In the days of her gran- eur may be decided by the remains of the lost city discovered near Fer- rura Like Rome, Etruria fell vic- tim of her sin. Diodorus wrote, “Their country was so fertile they de- §iyed therefrom not only sufficient for their peeds but enough to supply them‘with luxuries. Twice a day they partook of elaborate repasts at which the tables were decked with embroi- | dered cloths and vessels of gold and silvér. The servants were noticeable for the richness of their attire. In fuect, giving themselves up to sensuous enjoyments they had naturally lost the glorious reputation their ancestors had won in wars. “Etruria today is a country of dun fields and deep rocky ravines. Fer- rara, too, where the ancient Etrurian city has been unearthed, is a dismal ‘faded flower living on the memories of its glorious blooming in the bright days of the Italian Renaissance. Reminders of Famous Names, “Scraps of graceful cornices and weather-worn marble remind the vi tor of famous namgs; of Lucrezia Borgla, who had been married foun- times by her father Pope Alexander | VIT at the age of twenty-two; of Tas- | %0 who wrote ‘Jerusalem Delivered' while living under the patronagé of the famous Luerezia, Titlan achieved Is first great success in Ferrara with magnificent renalssance canvas for the altar of the church of Fari. Then there was Aldus. Even today men who deal with type the whole world round know and pralse the work of this man, who, following close on the lieels of Gutenberg, inventor of print. fng, produced type which is still a standard of grace. Tt was Aldus, also protege of Lucrezia living at the nificent ducal palace of Ferrara, who eveloped what is now known as lie type “Aldus was no less a stholar than # printer. His emigsaries and fellow- workers scoured Greece and Constan- tinople for the fast disappearing Gireek gems of literature, He pro- dnced the fist Greek grammar and waved to the world priceless works of Horace, Plato, Socrate and writers, philosophers and singers who will always be intellectual giants of | civilization, Made Fine Art of Wickedness. “Brilliant and colorful as was the Ttallan Renaissance period it was also corrupt, licentious, immoral and wicked beyond belief. Great works of Titian, Bellini, Raphael were bal- Convinced that | threatened. anced by diabolical murders, by as- sassination bought and paid for, by polsoning, by wars, by religion and political life both sunk in a morass of evil practices. Into such a setting a famous son of Ferrara was born, the noted Bavonarola. He forsworn the corrupt court life and like a prophet of the Old Testament Went through the land preaching against wickedness and assuring God'’s forgiveness for the penitent. Great crowds were charged with enthusiasm by the power of his oratory; the people changed their way of life, simple garb was assumed by thousands, and monuchs were over- thrown. ° “So powerfill did Savonarola be- come that enemies plotted his death. Finally he and two of his followers were tried by a jury of their enemies, condemned to death, hanged, and their bodies burned. Amid the mem- ories of great courts, great painters and great martyrdom Ferrara lives, sleepy and stogy under the sun and the Italian blue sky. Now with the discovery of the Etrurian town a new Hu;mory is added to the already long st.” TROUBLE OVER PAY, The Polish Government, Not Well Off Financially, Has Serious Problems of Keeping Employes in Service, Warsaw, Nov. 9.~The Polish gov- ernment, which {s not well off finan- clally, is constantly confronted with the serious problém of keeping the government employes content with their pay, but apparently meets with little success in this respect.
