Speaking at the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, .Mr, A. P. Giannini, president of tho Bank of Italy, who had just returned from 'Europe, said: "1 found quite a pronounced resentment towards tlio United States prevalent nbroiul because of line universal convictions that America, who acquitted herself so nobly during! tho darkest hour of the war, has now 'lain down' on the job at a moment when general conditions are almost as critical ns at any period during tho conflict. A feeling exists that America profited moro financially than miv other nation Ixcauso of the war, and wliilo none of I hem lack in appreciation of America's war services, t'«y feel that wo are acting a very selfish jjjirt in retiring into ourselves aiii'l adopting a 'go lisli for yourself attitude." His final remark wns: "Wake up, America! Let's get busy and finish tlio job. Brains and team work alone will win, and who can surpass us in theso ivlieu we'aro fully aroused?" /
