Towm councils, the public generally, and cer- tainly those unfortunate enough to sustain serious injury through acciden-is on public tho1'oug'hfares, are becoming` just a little fed up on the'a~t`titu(le assumed by liability insurance companies, which collect hundreds of `dollars annually in premiums --and d'ispu>t`e almost every solitary claim for (haaiiages as a matter of course. At the last meeting of the Barrie council, four claims for damages in connection with falls on icy sidewalks resulting in broken bones were return- ed by the Ocean Accident Company with the eas- uals notations -dnisclaiming liability.

Still Italy is not satised. The canny manner in which King Zog has resisted Italian dictation in his imlernal affnazirs shows how even a vassaili. can remain a problem. In 1934 the Italians actually had `U0 apologize for sailing, into Durazzo unan- nounced. Italy bided her time. And: now -that Chancellor Hitler -has been expanding his realm, Premier Mmssolini no doubt felt that auhe time was ripe to take a tigher grip on` Allbanlia. Two such d'ic'a`ators trying to keep step with each other bodes little comfort for Europe s near future. The pre- text that Italian occupation was to protect Italian residents from bands of Albnaznians is quite well shown to be an invention in v1`he light of immedi- iate statements of the Fascist press that this is ilhe answer of Italy and Germany to attenipczls to en- :-ir:-ln H1nn\ answer UJ. llid circle them.
