RUSH TO AID FINNS
ITALIAN STUDENTS INTERNATIONAL BRIGADE (Reed. Dec. 7, 9 a.m.) NEW YORK, Dec. 5. ■the Rome correspondent of the New York Times states that 100 students have petitioned the Finnish Ambassador for permission to fight the Russians. Italian pilots are reported to be flying the Italian planes recently sold to Finland. It seems that another international brigade is being formed, this time against communism. The Government is not acting officially, but apparently is not objecting to Italians volunteering. Undoubtedly thousands of Italians would spontaneously and genuinely volunteer.
