Marchetti. an Italian econoihic writer. tells us that Italy produces more silk. which is rightly called the queen of textile fibers. than any country in Europe or the Levant. She has recently produced 60 per cent of all the silk obtained in same period in Europe and Asiatic Turkey combined. Another authority shows that on the whold in. 1923 Italy was able to balance her trade by differences in freight on emigrants. freight received for goods imported and exported in Italian ships. sums remitted to Italy by emigrants. amount received from tourists. the difference in value of postal orders payable in Italy and those payable in other countries. difference between profits on Italian undertakings in other countries and the profits made by foreign companies on undertakings in Italy. and last. the amount received from war reparation after payIng expenses of occupation and control. A vote against this settlement is not a vote against Italy or her citizens. it is a vote for America and for her citizens. including every Americanized Italian citizen. It is not a vote that adds to Italys debt. it is a vote not to add to the tax burden of our citizens.
