ONWARD AND UPWARD
MARCH OF HUMANITY
"History avill surely compare the! conduct of our rugged but resolute ally, Russia, will) the. miserable poltroonery which has stained indelibly the fair name of Italy. It was the great Italian patriot Mazzini who said-: 'The march of humanity is always onward and upward, and its goal is that identification with the eternal life of God which we call immortality.' One may well, wonder whether the pillow of Mussolini, who has dragged his country through the mire of ignoble treachery and ignominious failure, is haunted by the ghost of Mazzini, the proscribed refugee, who was yet the first to hail the vision of a free and vmited Italy and to foretell her coming, if fleeting, glories."—Lord Bird wood, speaking in the House of Lords.
