“FAREWELL AUSTRIA"
REMARKABLE PEN-PICTURE OF MUSSOLINI.
A remarkable pen-picture of Signor Mussolini is drawn by Dr Kurt von Schuschnigg, the ex-Chancellor of Austria, in his book, “Farewell Austria.” It is only in personal contact and in discussion of practical matters, Dr Schuschnigg writes, that one obtains a correct impression of the Duce. Not that the gaze of the eyes is different, but they speak, perhaps, in a different tone and make one aware that not only harshness, but also goodness, a profound humanity and considerable culture dwell side by side in this characteristically Latin head. One remark made by the Duce in the course of our conversations seems to me to be typical of the man. “The hardest and most essential thing,” he said, “is to be so strong that one is able to remain good.”
