"^he Italian Contribution 1933-1934

The Selected Directory of the Italians in Chicago appears in its fifth issue. The Market Guide that served to offer more detailed information concerning the industries and the professional men listed in the Directory has this year made way to a series of biographical sketches and descriptions of firms that widen the scope of my work. These biographies will, I hope, speak for themselves and my readers will, I trust, be as much impressed with this story of effort and achievement as I have been my self. The facts have been given with the most scrupulous exactness and give a final and eloquent refutation to the distressing statement concerning the Italian issued in the pamphlet which suggested to me the need of a Directory that would give irrefutable information concerning the achievements of the Italian group.

Ill health and other reasons have limited the number of biographical

sketches. I do not claim to give information concerning all the more deserving

Italians in Chicago, but I do claim that I am giving the honor roll of those

Italians whom I have always found most interested in the civic work that I have carried on for years and I take this opportunity of thanking them for their continued cooperation. The tremendous upheaval the country has gone through has, perforce, been felt by the Italian group, but, on the whole, they have weathered the storm remarkably well. Many changes have occurred, but while in certain lines the number of business firms has decreased, the loss has been less than might have been expected. The wholesale list has not perceptibly changed, in the retail bakers, meat markets and restaurants have been affected most. Cigars store and beauty parlors have increased. The greatest change has

been found in the list of physicians where the amount of changes in addresses has been incredible, but they have not decreased in number.

I hope that in the next issue the number of ITALIANS IN CHICAGO whose history I will be privileged to write will be vastly increased and that I shall reach far beyond the present scope of my personal associations, for

numberless are still those whose successful efforts would be a credit to their race were they known. Lisi Cipriani 5461 Blackstone Ave.

^^he Italian Contribution

Introduction to the Selected Directory of the Italians in Chicago in 1926-27.

Four year ago I was asked to serve as officer in an Italian organization whose aim it was to help the Italians in Chicago attain the highest type of citizenship, becoming a blessing to the country they had come to and a source of pride to the fatherland they had left. I was entrusted with the educational and civic work, and, in order to prepare myself efficiently for this task, I sought all available information concerning my countrymen in this city. But the information I received from institutions of learning, public offices, settlements and social agencies was meager and flagrantly inaccurate. The Council of Social Agencies of Chicago furnished me with a pamphlet issued by the Chicago Com- munity Trust for the express purpose of guiding workers in Americanization in their work. Since our aim was to prepare our fellow countr5m[ien to give this country their best as this country most needed, our work would, by most people, be classed as advanced Americanization work.

I need make no comment when I quote the paragraph on the Italians in full:— THE ITALIANS

The Italian is not an organizer. He is an individualist. In the midst of organization, your typical Italian in America buys a push cart and goes into business for himself. He saves his money carefully, buys a tenement house and lives in the poorest one himself. If constrained to Work for Wages he prefers out- door labor, which he follows in the summer time, laying off in the winter.

The Italian is not found in large numbers in industry. He is not likely to become a man of great Wealth. He is of poetic temperament, artistic, musical.

There is much of value which he can contribute to our wasteful, luxury-loving^ materialistic American life.

The oldest settlement of Italians in Chicago is in the vicinity of Grand Avenue West of the river. The Italians in that section represent perhaps the best element of our Italian immigration. There is a large settlement in the 22nd Ward VI PREFACE

—east of the river. The southern half of this settlement, north of Division street, is populated largely by Sicilians. Most of the Italians of Chicago live in a settlement beginning at the southern edge of the Loop, in the first ward and extending Westward across the river, and Worth of twelfth street in the 19th ward. My answer to this statement, which the Council for Social Agencies is still distributing is this directory. I list over three thousand names and over one hundred and fifty professions. What more eloquent condemnation of the statement?

It was not merely a question of listing a vast number of firms, of stores and professional men. I wanted to study my people and their conditions thoroughly. Having worked several years for the Italian emigrant in New

York, after 1907, when conditions there were tragic, I began my task prepared to find much that was heartrendering and discouraging, prepared to try and teach these people much, prepared to make a strong appeal for greater interest in their problems . My investigation has been long and thorough. I have completed my task and now stand before the Italians in Chicago, deeply moved, thrilled with admiration at the gigantic task they have silently and stoically accomplished. HERE IS TO YOU, ITALIAN EMIGRANT, MY BROTHER, YOU HAVE MADE GOOD. This directory follows the guide published by Mr. Parisi several years ago, which listed only a few hundred names, and the Business Directory of the

Italian in Chicago, published June 1 926, for the Eucharistic Congress, under the auspices of the Italian Consulate, which listed under sixty business addresses, and was compiled by Mr. Costa of the Consulate. It is to be hoped that the publication of this little volume will be an incentive to other publications that will help to make the Italians better knowTi and bring them, consequently, in closer touch with the American world around them.

This directory is therefore to serve es documentary evidence for my statement concerning the tremendous achievement of the Italians in Chicago. The census of 1 920 put the Italian population in Chicago at one hundred and fifty thousand. This would give us, at a rough estimate, about thirty thousand male Italian adults—though the large size of the Italian families makes this a con- servative estimate. The directory, in its first edition, is necessarily incomplete, though many names have been added to those listed in the telephone business directory. Many Italian industries and stores have American names and securing a complete list was beyond the power of one isolate worker. Hundreds of names will surely be added to the next edition. Italian firms generally are composed of several members of the same family or of several partners whose names do not alw^ays appear. Finally it has not yet been possible to list the great number of Italians who hold important positions in industries, offices and banks. Hence it is not about one Italian in ten, but far more, who from the xlass of unskilled labor has risen to the class above the skilled workmen, being. PREFACE Vn

actually men of property. The greater number of Italians in Chicago have come since 1 904, and such a progress in twenty years seems almost incredible. But all doubts can be set at rest with the assurance that the Selected Directory of the Italians in Chicago is an absolutely bonafide compilation.

Mere statistics, however, give a meager idea of this epic of immigration. The great mass of the Italian emigrants came from the rural districts and belonged to the peasant class. Their opportunities for education had been limited to the scant advantages of rural schools. For Southern Italians there was the increased difficulty of receiving instructions in the Tuscan idiom, commonly called Italian, while they habitually spoke some other Italic dialect which was less close to Tuscan than English or French, both languages in which Italic roots vastly predominate. They came, our emigrants, with a deficient education, a total inexperience of city life, with no money, ignorant of the English language, and were often hostily met. Yet this is not all. The twenty years of their rise numbers many years of expectionally hard times. The financial crisis of 1907 and the following years was followed by the world war, when many of the best workers were called to arms, and their business suffered in every way. Then came the post-war period of business depression. We can therefore state that they have surmounted inordinate difficulties in a marvelous way. The rapidly increasing number of professional men, of other who hold responsible positions in American firms, show that the second generation is availing itself more and more of the educational advantages a city offers, and as affluence increases, culture and learning will increase in proportion. But the Italian rural population should be better understood. Intel- ligence, refinement, gentleness, loyalty and morals are assets distinct from a school education. When great writers like D'Annunzio and De Amicis, wanted to perfect themselves in the Tuscan idiom, they went to live among the Tuscan peasants. In the rural district of Southerny Italy the classical epics

still are read aloud and understandingly enjoyed. Hence the gentleness,

poignant in its sweetness, of the Italian Southerners who trust you, their chivalry and their generosity which seldom fails you. This applies particularly to the Sicilians, who own many of the most important firms. This Business Directory hopes to be not only on aid to business men, but also an eyeopener to workers in Americanization, and I therefore add a few words that would not habitually be found in a Business Directory. The problems which the Italians now have to face are problems that concern all Chicago citizens. The question of prohibition, the emancipation of the younger generation from parental discipline, deficiencies in the public school system (the lack of interest in evening centers particularly, but also unequal advantages for the day schools), and all the grave civic and political problems which this gigantic city has to face. Most of these problems are due to the rapid growth of the city, the congestion following that and the inavoidable lack of men prepared to hold the great number of public offices that have to : —

VIII PREFACE

be filled. Many difficulties are already being solved normally, particularly as improved transportation and the means to buy a home draw^ an ever increasing number of the Italians to the suburbs, where civic and educational problems are less complicated. As civic problems in Chicago are being studied and solved, the needs of the Italians are being met.

As for adapting themselves to American ideals, no people are better prepared to do so. The English language has over two thirds of Italian words the thought words are mostly Italian. I say Italian, for the Romance dialect did not grow from Latin, the aristocratic dialect of the Latium, but from the dialects of all Italian provinces spnjken by the Roman legions. A miracle of providence has produced vigorous new Romance languages from a series of grammatical errors and mispronunciations, but it is a blessing for anyone who learns the new form to go instinctively or consciously back to the pure source.

Can these people easily assimilate American ideals?

If these ideals are the ideals of previous American generations, rigid in their morality, stern in their sence of justice, fervid in their love of their family and their race, they certainly can. And this is particularly true of the Sicilians, industious, reticent and determined, uncompromising on questions which involve family morality. — But if the ideals presented them are those of a radical school, flourishing in certain settlements, where the advanced views of some of the residents are known through the United States, then the Italians will not be easily transformed. The mass of the Italians in Chicago, is, I think, con- servative, though we also have among them some socialists. But the men who have toiled for their f)ossessions are not ready for the abolition of property,

Italicm traditions, upholding the cult of the child, make, I think, most Italians recalcitrant to the doctrines of birth-control, sexual experience for women before marriage, abolition of property and similar radical theories sometimes held by the modern social workers.

If the Pilgrim Fathers reincarnated unchanged, they would undoubtedly feel more at home with our Sicilian emigrants than with certain of their own direct descendants whose whole life has been a wild reaction against puritanism.

In an address delivered by President Coolidge at Amherst, June 18,

1 920, he says of the boys returned from the world war THEY ARE FIGHTING FOR THEIR IDEALS AND THOSE IDEALS WERE THOSE OF THE CLASSICS. THE CLASSIC OF ALL CLASSICS IS THE BIBLE.

The classics that reach the American are Italic, and given to the English peaking races by the Italians, as well as the Bible whose ethics are the foundation of all Western Civilization. Science also furnishes a field of international understanding. It should be an easy and beautiful task to find that PREFACE IX

meeting ground of ideals were the descendents of the older settlers could find guidance in their relations to the newer settlers and where the latter could be

made to feel tnat they can become good American citizens and still retain the high ideals of their own race.

A good Italian will make an excellent American.

I thank the Italian Section of the Chicago Council for Civic Education, Executive Conmiittee and Advisory Bard, for the interest they have shown in my work, but though chairman of the Italian Section of the Council, I hereby declare that I am solely and entirely responsible for the publications that bear my name.

FRATELLI ITALIANI!

Vengo umile ed esaltata, gloriosa e commossa di esser dal destino oggi

Come la chiesa chiede I'universalita di tutti i fedeli, cosi Titalianita chiede I'universalita di tutti gli italiani.

La nostra italianita, o fratelli italiani, e il Gran Fascio che racchiude in se tutte le glorie italiane, tutte le forze italiane del passato e del presente. Da Giulio Cesare, superbo romano, al soldatino ignoto caduto sulle sponde del Piave, dal ministro potente che decide delle sorti d'ltalia, all'operaio, santo, quando con semplice onesta, giorno per giorno, da alia civilta moderna I'o- pera sua.

Siamo una immensa falange, gli italiani di oggi che lavorano per gli italiani deiravvenire, resi piu forti dall'opera dei nostri morti che ci spingono e ci spalleggiano, tutti e sempre Figli d'ltalia.

Fratelli italiani, ospiti di questa magnifica repubblica, rendetevi ben conto di quanto la nostra Italia ha contribuito alia sua grandezza, non per stupido vanto, ma per misurare piij scrupolosamente il dovere che vi incombe di com- pletare con esaltata coscienza ed intelligente lealta Topera dei cari padri. :

E quanto ci deve essere facile e dolce questo dovere verso 1' America, grande bella figlia spirituale della nostra Italia. Cristoforo Colombo, italiano e genovese, scopri TAmerica. Nome pro-

Spetta a voi, fratelli italiani, di militare arditamente affinche non sia vana quella promessa fatta a queste terre e a nome di Cristoforo Colombo vi esorto "Siate giusti e siate buoni." Fu Giovanni Cabotto, ardito esploratore, che fe' si che la prima bandiera a sventolare all'aure dell'America settentrionale fosse una bandiera italiana, quando pianto la bandiera inglese a fianco dello stendardo della repubblica di

Venezia, assicurando alia gente inglese il possesso di queste terre, e fu un altro italiano, Verrazzano, che primo approdo coi suoi francesi nel luogo dove adesso si trova Nuova York, che racchiude un magnifico centro italiano. Cabotto fece da battistrada ai padri pellegrini, fondatori di questa repubblica, preparando loro un rifugio quando, fuggendo I'lnghilterra, vennero in cerca di lavoro e di liberta. O fratelli italiani, vi esorto a continuare I'opera magnificamente benefica di Giovanni Cabotto e di far benedire I'ltalia dai discendenti dei padri pellegrini, come certo sempre e dovunque la benedivano loro.

Da Amerigo Vespucci venne a questo paese il suo splendido nome "il re- gno dei potenti" e padrino di questa magnifica repubblica, si la fe figlia spirituale deiritalia, consacrandone di nuovo la profonda italianita di coltura e di lingua. A nome di Amerigo Vespucci vi esorto a conservare pura la vostra coltura e la vostra lingua, fonti di grazia per la gente americana. Se cio fate non sarete che meglio preparati ad accettare intelligentemente ed amorevolmente la lingua e la coltura di questo paese, ambedue meravigliosi innesti italici nel tronco britannico, Non e per piu di due terzi italiana questa lingua? Dico italiana perche fu frutto di tutti i dialetti della penisola, non solo dell'aristocratico dialetto del Lazio.

Meravigliosa bellezza della nostra lingua che non mai si distrugge! Gran miracolo della provvidenza che da una serie di sbagli di pronunzia e di sgram- maticature fa nascer nuovi dialetti italici forti e rigogliosi, lo spagnuolo, il fran- cese, I'inglese! Primo dovere di ogni Italiano agli Stati Uniti e di conoscere, di amare e di conservare nella sua purezza e nella sua semplice belta la lingua inglese, ultima fioritura della lingua itahana, rispettandone le nordiche caratteristiche che non son tutte estranee alia lingua madre.

Troppo ci vorrebbe per enumerare i tesori italiani base della coltura americana.

La grande letteratura italiana fu accettata senza il tramite della Francia XI PREFAZIONE

ed i quattro maggiorl poeti inglesi, Chaucer, Shakespeare, Spencer e Milton, furono dei meravigliosi innesti italiani nel tronco britannico. Se amate i poeti itahani, amerete questi grandi poeti inglesi che da cosa bella hanno creato cosa Bella. Sono magnifici e sono italiani. Che gioia per voi, fratelli, di riconoscer Timpronta italiana in tutto quanto vi offre di piu bello questo paese. E magnifica questa coltura, degna di studio, degna di lode, degna di amore, e italiana. Levate dalla civilta americana, dalla sua lingua, dalla sua letteratura, dalla sua arte, dalla sua scienza tutti gli elementi italiani e non rimane una civilta! Percio amatela questa civilta come cosa vostra, difendetela, rendetela piu grande e piii forte. Non farete che tener alte le grandi tradizioni del passato. Cosa dovete a questo paese, fratelli, ospiti di questa repubblica? Fedelta agli ideali italiani, lealta agli ideali americani. Non troverete conflitto. Chi in questo paese vi offende e vi tradisce manca agli ideali della sua gente e li tradisce, come I'italiano che con abbietto egoismo svergogna la sua italianita, tradisce tragicamente la nostra Italia. Quando forti ed arditi, buoni ed intelligenti avrete raggiunto la meta di essere i primi ed i migliori cittadini degli Stati Uniti, tenendo sempre alto il vanto di pura italianita, fonte di ogni bene, sentirete nel profondo dell'animo la fratellanza dei popoli e, servendola con abnegazione e con lealta, riconosce- rete in questa bella America la figlia spirituale dell'Italia, e I'amerete. Disciplinati e leali, consci dei vostri duplici doveri, sarete benedetti dal paese che vi ospita e sarete degni figli della nostra Italia.

Pensate al vostro sangue, alia vostra razza. Vogliamo i nostri figli sani e forti di corpo e di mente. Vogliamo per loro una istruzione di vantaggi mo- rali e materiali ed una ricreazione che li mantenga onesti e felici. Questo chie- dete e questo otterrete.

L'ltalia ha bisogno di tutto il prestigio morale e materiale che le possono dare i suoi figli lontani. Fate il bene di tutta la colonia e servirete l'ltalia con giudizio e con abnegazione. Siate fieri dell'opera vostra. Siate fieri della vostra italianita, e rendetela cosi santamente bella e forte da fare si che con Erasmo tutti esclamino:

"Chi e colto, sia pur nato tra i selvaggi, e Italiano!"

Italians in Cliicago

No phase of life in the Italian community is more important than that depending upon the banks that care particularly for Italians. In the present economical crisis, many of the smaller banks have disappeared. The loss has been immeasurable, for these banks not only carried on the function normally belonging to them, but fostered numerous interests to the benefit of Italians, and I remember with affection and admiration many of the men connected with these institutions. We still have with us the BANCO DI NAPOLI TRUST COMPANY OF CHICAGO, 906-910 South Halsted Street, created in order to render more complete and thorough, the already wide range of service which the agency of the Banco of di Napoli rendered the public, the last twelve years. The Banco di Napoli Trust Company of Chicago, is affiliated with the Banco di Napoli, Italy, perhaps the most ancient banking house in the World. It dates back to 1539 A. D., when it was created to relieve the poorer classes in a period of financial distress. For centuries, the Banco di Napoli has lived on unshaken. The outstanding characteristic of the Banco di Napoli, is that it has a patrimonial capital, but no stock and no stock holders. Its yearly profits serve in part to increase its surplus, and in part for the promotion of public welfare and charity. It is, therefore, a unique contribution to the public welfare of Italians in Chicago. The president is Mr. Eduardo Maglione, whom I have always found most interested in everything concerning the development of the Italian colony. Board of Directors: Eduardo Ma- glione, chairman, Cav. Frank Bragno, Cav. Domenico M. Campana, Joseph Melchione, Cav. Uff. Dr. Aurelio Pagano, Cav. Pietro Russo, Cav, Dr. Italo F. Volini. Capital: $300,000.00, Surplus: $100,000.00, Reserve: $104,058,04%. Activities: Checking Ac- counts, Saving Accounts, Commercial Loans, Foreign Department, Securities Depart- ment, Letters of Credit, Travelers's Checks, Steamship Tickets, Finance Exports and Import, Trustee under Wills, Living Trusts and Mortgages, Executor, Administrator or Guardian, Insurance Agency.

An institution totally different in character, not philantropic yet absolutely social in its objectives, is found in THE AMALGAMATED TRUST AND SAVINGS BANK OF CHICAGO, of interest to Italians because A. D. MARIMPIETRI, Vice President, is one of its founders. A. D. Marimpietri, was bom in Barere, Aquila, Italy, 1884. Member, Board of Directors of the Bank; Member of General Executive Board, Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America; Manager Unemployment Insurance Fund A. C. W., Director Em- ployment Department Chicago Branch, A. C. W; Head of Price Department A. C. W., Chicago Branch; President Local 39 Coat Makers; Member of City Club. Amalgamated Trust and Savings Bank of Chicago, ranks among the oldest and strongest of the labor banks, now operating in the United States, and is the only labor bank in Chicago. Founded as a labor bank, the real interests of the workmen have always been its special concern. Loans to workmen are made on the signatures of two fellow workmen, whose guarantee need only be their wage earning power. This confidence has been justified for the loss due to forfeiture of payments has been a minimum, justify- ITALIANS IN CHICAGO

ing the policy of the bank, which is co-operative in nature, democratic in government, using its credit for social purposes rather than for private profit. In this case the personal initiative of an Italian has contributed to the welfare of thousands of all nationalities.

It gives me special satisfaction to write of one line of production in which my countrymen excel to an incredible degree. This is the production of fine pastry. In the poorest Italian quarters, you find PASTICCERIE that sell large cakes and a variety of delicate small cakes, fit to serve at the most exclusive tea on tftie North Shore. These PASTICCERIE are listed as bakeries, which is misleading, since they combine the function of the confectioner and of the super pastry cook. They also prepare a variety of frozen dainties that would delight many an American epicure, if he knew that such exquisite deserts are within his reach. One of the most ancient of these pasticcerie was founded in 1908, by Mr. Salvatore Ferrara, who now is president of the ORIGINAL PASTICCERIA FERRARA AND COMPANY, 722 W. TAYLOR STREET. In this case something essentially Italian is preserved in its full excellency, and is at the disposal of those who wish something superfine and unique in the line of re- freshments. Mr. Ferrara is also president of the FERRARA PANNED CANDY COMPANY, which manufactures confectionery in Italian, but also in American styles. The firm owns its building at 2200-2210 Taylor Street. Mr. Ferrara was born at Nola, Province of Naples, come to this country in 1900, at the age of fiteen, and worked his way up to his present successful position.

Among the distinctive Italian food products that are increasingly transforming the American table is the Italian bread. The Italian bread differs from the typical Amer- ican variety because it is simpler in the ingredients used. It contains no sugar, milk, potatoes, and similar substances, nor is any kind of shortening used.

It depends for its excellency on special machinery devised to develop volume and perfection of form and on the high proteine contents of the flour. The absence of shortening gives it special crispness and allows it to dry without ever becoming stale —the basis of economy for the Italian household, since the dry bi'ead has invaluable uses in all kind of Italian dishes that Americans, if they knew them, would hugely enjoy.

Italian bread is sold not only to Italians, but erroneously called Vienna bread, is sold in huge quantities by restaurants, delicatessen stores and other foodstores of all nationalities.

The GONNELLA BAKING CO., 2006-2012 W. Erie Street, is the oldest Italian Bakery in Chicago. It opened in 1886 on Clark Street, then the most important Italian center, and was founded by Alessandro Gonnella from Barga, Tuscany, who, later took his brothers-in-law Lawrence and Nicholas Marcucci into partnership. The company was incorporated in 1923, when Alessandro Gonnella retired, and his brothers-in-iaw and his son continued the business. The Gonnella Co. supplies ninety per cent of the Italian restaurants in Chicago.

In 1932 the Gonnella Co. received the first prize at the Exposition of Bologna, Italy, not only for its food products, but for having the best equipped Italian bakery in the United States.

The Gonnella Bakery Co. is also famous for the achievements of its three athletic teams, one for the giuoco del calcic, the father of football, one for basket ball and one for indoor ball. In this they excel, to my knowledge, any bakery in Chicago. ITALIANS IN CHICAGO

Dairy Productions are popularly considered a Nordic specialty, and yet in the manufacture of cheese, Italians predominate in number, in importance and in excellency. They produce a large variety of high grade cheese. Parmesan is well known, other varieties will be as greatly appreciated as they become better known to the general public. EHRAT CHEESE COMPANY, INC., 55 E. Austin Avenue, has for its president and manager, Louis Caravetta bom at Cosenza, Italy. He came to this country in 1904, and began at once to import and manufacture Italian food specialties. Ehrat Cheese Company, Inc., are importers, manufacturers and distributors of various kinds of cheese. They also make a specialty of Ravioli in jars and in cans, assuring their success by using only the very best ingredients.

STELLA CHEESE COMPANY, INC., 311 W. Illinois St., is the achievement of Count Giulio Bolognesi and his brother, who hold a first place as manufacturers and distributors of Italian cheese. They own their own cheese factories at Campbellsport, Wis., Lake Nebagamon, Wis., and Mass, Mich. Count Bolognesi comes from Northern Italy, the very cradle of the manufacture of Italian cheese. He is, therefore, well acquainted with the best methods used in obtaining the highest quality of Parmesan cheese especially, but also of the other kinds of cheese which he puts on the market. The Stella Cheese Company manufactures and distributes Parmesan cheese, Ricotta, Reggiano, Scamorze, Asiago, Caciocavallo, Monteche, Provoloni.

The DE NOBILI CIGAR COMPANY, Pierce Ave. & Hamilton St., Long Island City, N. Y., is well known in Chicago, thanks to the labors of MR. SILVIO EWALD, GENERAL AGENT in the Western States for the De Nobili Cigar Company. The De Nobili Cigar Company was founded in 1906 by the Marquis Prospero De Nobili. It was in the days when Italian immigrants came pouring into America, and they naturally still preferred articles to which they were accustomed. Italian cigars were first in line of demand among them. There was in Italy a cigar called TOSCANO and smokers, who had been accustomed to using it seldom enjoyed any substitute. The heavy customs duty placed this cigar beyond reach of the immigrant's purse, and the Marquis De Nobili foresaw the possibilities and the future of an industry that would perfect an Italian style of cigar in this country. The company started in 1906 a limited partnership, under the name of Prospero De Nobili & Company with a capital of $350,000; in 1912 it was changed into a corporation, under the present name of De Nobili Cigar Company, with a capital stock of $5,1000,000. The Marquis De Nobili is still president and guiding spirit of the corporation.

The marvelous growth in popularity of De Nobili Cigar is due to its distinctive character. Only the finest selections of prime quality Kentucky and Tennessee tobaccos are used. The cigars are MJADE BY HAND and prepared for the seasoning process. Then they are packed in special absorbent paper and rightly seasoned. Ovnng to the seasoning process and in order to meet the huge demand for these cigars, it is necessary to maintain a large supply on hand and there are often anywhere from fifty to sixty millions cigars in the various departments.

The De Nobili cigar is made strong enough to give sufficient satisfaction without inhaling. The smoking public has been led to believe that a cigar, in order to be good, must be mild so that the smoke may be inhaled, but, if a smoke is strong enough. ITALIANS IN CHICAGO

one does not have to inhale in order to thoroughly enjoy it. This is the principle to which the De Nobili Cigar Company has adhered successfully all these years, and it has been found that those accustomed to this type of cigar seldom switch to any other. The De Nobili Cigar Company also makes other kinds of cigars. "Napoletano," the "Tripoli," the "Panatela" foil wi-apped, the "Cork Tip," -'Fermentati Extra" and *'Forti Extra." Of the pipe tobaccos the most popular ai'e the "Fermentato" (Rough Cut Fermented) and the "Spuntatura" (Cigar Clippings). The IVIarquis De Nobili, whom I know well personally, is a most distinguished man and has been for years interested in the social welfare of workers. Years ago, he was Socialist Member in the Italian Parliament. In 1911, I was in New York, Executive Secretary of the Pro Emigrants Committee and, under the auspices of the Russell Sage Foundation. I was conducting an investigation into the condition of Italian immigrant children in New York which was generally deplorable. I judged somewhat of the condition of the childi-en in a district by visiting the public schools. When I visited the public school nearest to the De Nobili Cigar Company, in Long Island, I found that, while in other districts Italian immigrant children were generally under- fed and below par physically in every way, the children who came from families era- ployed by the Marquis De Nobili were all in good condition, and this because the Marquis De Nobili paid higher wages than others and was generally interested in the moral and physical wellbeing of his employees.

SILVIO EWALD, general agent for the Western States of the De Nobili Cigar Co. was born at Biella, Vercelli, Italy. He finished the Technical Schools in Italy and came to this country in 1896. He was instrumental in developing the use Italian food products in the Middle West in many directions till, as General Agent for the De Nobili Cigar Co., he limited his activities to fostering the use of Italian cigars among his fellow countrymen. He is a member of the Elks Club.

Italians became more and more interested in food products and established themselves permanently in the manufacture of candy. Among these we can point with pride to the DE LUXE CANDY COMPANY, not Inc., wholesale and jobbing confec- tioners, soda fountain supplies, 445-447 North Wells Street. The President, Domenico Passaglia, was born at Santa Margherita, Province of Lucca, on August 4th, 1987. In Italy he finished the equivalent of the college course, at the Seminary of San Martino, at Lucca. He served in the army and then became chief conductor in the Italian Railroad, Government owned. In October 1910 he came to this country, but on account of the financial crisis, the country was going through, he did not find proper employment and was compelled to accept any kind of work. Yet in 1916, he started in business with the savings of the last six years, but the enterprise was not successful. He left his American business associates, starting over again alone. In 1919 he founded the De Luxe Candy Company, taking as associates, his brothers Daniel and Martin and his brother-in-law, H. Pasquinelli for whom he had paved the way. With the help of his brothers and his brother-in-law, he has founded a business which has grown to be one of the most important candy jobbing houses, not only in Chicago, but also in the Middle West. He does business in many States, deals with many Italians, and it is undoubtedly due to his influence that the number of Italians opening stores where candy and fruit is sold is constantly increasing. I do not generally mention the family because of space, but in this case, I make an exception deserved by his young daughter, now married, who for several years ITALIANS IN CHICAGO

worked with her father as stenographer and personal secretary. Educated in Italy, she perfected herself in English after coming to this country, and always delighted me with her efficiency, her beauty and her gentleness. She left her position because she got married.

The number of Italians engaged in the grocery business is very large. Among the most important Italian wholesale and retail groceries in Chicago, I can mention that of PARIS & GIULIANO IMPORTING COMPANY, 1012-1014 So. Halsted Street. No more colorful career can be mentioned than that of A. Paris. He was born at Lugo nei Marsi, Province of Aquila, Abruzzi, in 1892, son of a fairly well to do, typical nineteenth century sheep broker. He received a grammar school education and began his business experience with his father. At seventeen, he got married and had a young son and at nineteen, in order to better support his family, he came to the United States. His first occupation was that of lumber jack. Then he went as whale hunter in Alaska, coal miner in Colorado, again lumber jack in the State of Washington. In 1916, he came to Chicago and worked as a grocery clerk for eight dollars a week.

In 1920, his wife joined him with their young son, and in 1921 the A. Paris Cheese Company was formed which financially and otherwise advanced by leaps and bounds. In 1924, the A. Paris Cheese Company was re-organized as the Paris and Giuliano Importing Company and grew rapidly until in 1931, in spite of the depression, their quarters were doubled and they now claim to own the largest store of its kind in the United States. Paris & Giuliano Importing Company specialize in importation of foreign foods. Not only the staple delicacies imported from Italy can be found there, the purest oil and a large variety of salami and different kinds of cheese, but also ail the finest food products from Spain, France and Greece.

The manufacture of macaroni and noodles is almost exclusively Italian. The number of firms is constantly increasing, and i,he output increases in proportion. I have been particularly interested in the growth of the firm of the TRAFICANTI BROTHERS, 451 North Racine Avenue, for I have known this firm from its very beginning. There are two brothers, Frank and Nicholas, born in Montemaggiore, Belsito, Province of Palermo. They came to this country when Frank was seven and Nicholas four, and received their education from the Chicago Public Schools. Both served in the war, and when the war was over, they used the bonus that the State of Illinois gave for serving in the army to start in business. In 1925, they founded a very small egg noodle factory. I remember with delight, the eagerness with which they entered upon their enterprise and how insistent they were in using only the best material. Until then egg noodles had been produced of a lower grade, using imported Chinese egg powder. Traficanti Bros., used only strictly fresh eggs. They used durum wheat instead of soft wheat and in every way strove to produce a superior article which objective they certainly have reached. In a few years a small one room factory has grown to & large plant. The products of Traficanti Brothers are used in all parts of the United States and are appreciated for the high standard unfailingly maintained. Traficanti Brothers were the first ones to use the Dupont cellophane package, which now is in universal use and insures absolute cleanliness of the product, even when it is much handled. Over 2,500,000 packages were sold last year. The Traficanti Brothers put on the market "American Finest Pure Egg Noodtes." ITALIANS IN CHICAGO

They also manufacture Bologna Style Macaroni as well as Spaghetti and Ravioli packed especially for hotel and restaurant trade.

JOSEPH W. PALISE, Ass't to the Managing Director and Catering Manager of the Morrison Hotel, Chicago. Born of Italian parents in New Orleans, La. July 22nd 1890.

Entered the hotel business in a minor position at the age of sixteen and has held nearly all positions from bus boy to headwaiter and steward in the Restaurant Department and from bell boy to manager in the Hotel Department. He has held executive positions for the past seventeen years, with leading hotels and clubs of the Middle West, has been very active in Hotel Association and has been honored with many offices in local and national organizations. At the age of 30 he was elected National President of the International Stewards Association at Pittsburg. He is a singer of some note and a lover of music. Has attained considerable prominence in the Golfing World through his ability as a golfer.

ETTORE TONIATTI, was born in Venice, Italy. His father Giacinto was a **Garibaldino," who fought under Garibaldi for the Unification of Italy. He finished the Technical Schools in Italy and came to Chicago when he was eighteen years old. In Chicago he took up the trade of the jeweler and first worked for others, but about twelve years ago he engaged in business for himself and founded the VENE- TIAN JEWELRY MFG. CO. He is a designer and manufacturer of distinctive jewelry and has often been entrusted with important commissions when the Italian colony of Chicago offered a collective gift—such as the sword of honor to General Diaz and the laurel crown to Premier Mussolini. He imports Italian jewelry, deals in diamonds and watches and undertakes special repairs in antiques. For fifteen years he has been interested in the work of the Hull House where for thirteen years he has been a resident.

Another field in which the Italians have been pioneers and in which they still predominate is that of terrazzo mosaic and tile work. They gave beauty to the walls, but, also, gave their American brothers beauty underfoot (and then some feared that the immigration from Southern Europe might lower the standard of living).

The most important and the oldest firm in this line is that of JOHN CARETTI & COMPANY, TERRAZZO, MOSAIC & TILE, owned now by Mel and Jas. C. D'Ambrosio whose father Giovanni was one of the founders in 1884, and the last survivor of the original firm. At his death it passed into the hands of his sons. Giovanni D'Ambrosio was born at Meduno and received his training as artist in mosaic work in Venice. He exhibited at the World's Fair in 1893 and was awarded a gold medal. He died in 1916 and was succeeded by his two sons. Both boys completed their high school course and then a technical course at the Chicago Technical College. As children they spent some time in Italy. After finishing their studies they entered their father's business, Giovanni D'Ambrosio was a pioneer in the mosaic work, and his work was among the very first to be done in the Middle West. His sons have followed successfully in his footsteps and have been entrusted with the carrying out of some of the most im-

6 ITALIANS IN CHICAGO

portant work in the city. It is they who have executed the beautiful mosaic work which, for instance, adorns the Chicago Board of Trade and the Tribune Tower. The Company is a member of the Chicago Mantel and Title Contractors' Associa- tion, of the Chicago Terrazzo and Mosaic Contractors' Association, of the National Terrazzo and Mosaic Association, Inc., and of the Tile and Mantel Contractors' Associa- tion of America.

"Clothes make men," says a German proverb. If this be true, then the Italian emigrant from Southern Italy has made the American nation, for the Italians predominate now as tailors, particularly as designers, and they are important not only in numbers, but in excellency of achievement. It is the Italian designer who has been instrumental in transforming, for the better, the manufacture of ready made clothes, so that well cut, trimlooking garments are no longer the prerogative of the well to do. The Italian tailors are predominantly of Southern extraction. Tailoring had reached a high standard in Italy many years ago, but, while the cloth was manufactured, almost exclusively, in the large mills of Northern Italy, the manufacture of the clothes fell more and more to the share of men from the South, who, when they came to this country, brought with them a high standard of workmenship, and gradually conquered the heights of the trade, predominating as designers all over the United States. But even as custom tailors, Italians are coming more and more to the fore. They are not merely setting the style for the masses, but they are deciding how the Amer- ican who sets the fashions in his own exclusive circle is to look. Is there a class of men that can boast to have more than these Italian tailors set a lasting mark on the American masses?

JOSEPH MELCHIONE, head of the Designing Department of Hart Shaffner and Marx, one of the most important firm of its kind in the United States, is one of the men who has been instrumental in transforming the appearance of the masses in the United States. Joseph Melchione was born at Manocalzati, Province of Avellino, Italy, in 1881. At fifteen he joined his father Gaetano in New York and worked as an apprentice in the tailoring trade. He worked all day—a long, long day, and then attended evening school in order to perfect his English, in which he has been most successful, and at the same time took private lessons in designing men's clothes. After learning drafting, he worked as custom cutter for about ten years, getting priceless training in the preparation of the highest grade clothes for men. In 1912, he came to Chicago and entered the firm of Hart, Shaffner and Marx as designer. After three years he was appointed Head of their Designing Department. He applied himself to the task bettering the cut of the unexpensive garments, till he succeeded in taking first rank among those who entirely transformed the appearance of the working classes, one of the greatest contributions to the leveling of class difference the world has known. But even the designing of the highest grade was improved, till the wholesale manufacturer became a formidable rival to the custom tailor, who in turn had to excel to keep his trade.

N. G. DE MARCO was born at Stella Cilento, Province of Salerno, Italy, and came to this country wjhen he was ten, settled in Philadelphia and worked as an apprentice in the tailoring trade. His ambition was to become a first class designer. In Philadelphia he worked all day at his trade then attended evening school, studying ITALIANS IN CHICAGO

till eleven at night, acquiring a general education and perfecting himself in the English language. He went to New York and studied designing with John Graziadei. He worked as a tailor during the day and thus earned funds for his personal expenses and the expenses incurred for his training as designer, devoting his evening to his studies. He returned to Philadelphia and was employed as a cutter, then he want back to New York and worked for Graziadei as a cutter. Finally he was called to Chicago, by the Society Brand Clothes Company, an important firm, as asssitant designer to Mr. G. H. Pine, and upon the death of Mr. Pine, he was promoted to the position of chief designer. He too can claim to have done his share in raising the standard of the personal appearance of American men.

He belongs to the Columbian Country Club, to the Knights of Columbus and is a member of the La Salle Assembly.

J. P. MARZANO was born on Clark Street in one of the oldest Italian settlements in Chicago, where his father, Giuseppe, from Rieigliano, Prov. di Salerno, settled about seventy years ago. The number of prominent Italians who hail from Rieigliano Jias always been a source of wonder to me, for Rieigliano is a small place, and its sons in Chicago seem many and distinguished.

J. P. Marzano was one of the oldest boys in the family, and while, he was attending school, he sold papers and did every kind of errand that came his way. He went through the Public Schools and later attended the Embalming College in Chicago. At eighteen he opened one of the first two dollar and half shoe stores in Chicago, but as he did not belong to the nationality who controlled the shoe market in Cjhicago, he had to give up his enterprise. At twenty one J. P. Marzano started in the undertaking business, at present, owns a large establishment at 931 W. Polk Street. He was the first undertaker from Southern Italy in Chicago and the first Italian to introduce automobile service at funerals. At seventeen he belonged to the naval militia and then joined the second regiment of national guards. He was deeply interested in making Italians do their share in public life and today we have Italian representatives and aldermen in the very ward for which J. P. Marzano always worked. He is very fond of paintings, has pei-fected himself in Italian with an Italian tutor, is fond of athletics, particularly swimming and golf, but best of all, he says, he is the father of seven children, three of whom are already graduates of universities.

PAUL V. COLIANNI, president of Western Contracting Co., and Colianni & Dire Co., engineering contractors, came up from the ranks in the field of railroad construction and engineering. He started as a call boy for a construction gang, working his way upward through the various stages of railroad engineering to his present high position in his chosen profession. As a youth he studied engineering and applied his theoretical work while in the employ of several of the large western railroads. In 1930 he was elected Sanitary Trustee, for the six-year term, on the regular Democratic ticket.

After passing through the mill in the maintenance and operating departments of railroads, Mr. Colianni formed the engineering firm of Colianni Brothers, with head- quarters at St. Paul and branches in Chicago and Milwaukee. Then, in 1918, he formed a partnership known as Colianni & Dire, which has grown to be one of the leading firms in its field in this country, with its main office at Chicago. This firm has handled some of the largest railroad contracts in the country, among them the con-

struction of the yards at Clinton, 111., for the Illinois Central Railroad; the big track elevation programs of the Chicago & Western Indiana; Pennsylvania; New York Central and Grand Trunk railroads, all in the Chicago district. This firm also supplied and handled all the materials for the mammoth Proviso, 111., yards of the Chicago & North Western Railroad—this job alone requiring four years to complete. A few years ago Mr. Coliannl formed a third company, the Western Contracting Company, which specializes in the maintenance and operation of railroads. Member of many local and national organizations. Among them are: Butterfield Country, Mid-West Athletic, Beachview, Lake Shore Athletic, Casa Del Mar and Iroquois clubs; Associate member of the Field Museum of Natural History, Illinois Chamber of Commerce and Association of Commerce. In his youthful days he starred at swimming and running and today enjoys golf and horse-back riding.

THOMAS A, GARIBALDI, was born in Chicago and was the oldest son of John G. Garibaldi, who came from Genoa, Italy and was one of the earliest Fruit Commission Merchants in Chicago. He was practically the first to deal in bananas on a large scale initiating the shipment of green bananas and having them ripen in storage. He is among those who merit to be remembered, because they founded the now commercially very important fruit industry and transformed, for the better, the diet of even the staunchest Americans.

The education of Thomas Garibaldi and his brothers and sister was planned by his mother, founder and life president of the most important Italian women's society, the Maria Adelaide. Thomas Garibaldi attended the Chicago Latin School and then went to the University of Illinois. After having left the University, he started in business and was employed in the Corn Exchange Bank and then, in 1924, passed to the I'eal estate business. He is at present the head of the Thomas A, Garibaldi Co. real estate, and is also trustee and director of the J. G. Garibaldi Trust. His favorite pastimes are yachting and tennis.

Among the Italians in Chicago who hold important executive positions, none is better known that JOSEPH SORAVIA, Supervisor of all musical activities in Sears Roebuck and Co. He was born at Venice in 1880. He completed the elementary and technical courses in the Venice Public Schools, and came to this country at 17, having already mastered the English language, to join his father. He was first in a law office in New York, then again in a law office in Buffalo, and while he did not become a lawyer, he found his training in law extremely valuable later in understanding the problems of his countrymen.

In 1901 he came to Chicago with his father and started his work with Sears Roebuck and Co., in the musical department of which he is now supervisor, rising rapidly in importance.

He has always been keenly interested in his countrymen, and has done his best to further the study of Italian and of music among them. He has been connected with the Hull House and the Chicago Commons. He is a man of varied interests, a lover of music, art and literature, he is also fond of travel. He has a country home in Northern Italy where he goes, when he can, to enjoy the quiet and beauty of country life. He is a member of the Lake Shore Athletic Club of Chicago, the Colonial Club of Oak Park, the Itasca Country Club and the Camera di Commercio Italiana di Chicago.

ALEXANDER V. CAPRARO, ARCHITECT, was born in the town of Pietrabon- dante, Molise, Italy, in 1894, the son of Vincenzo and Maria (nee Vitullo). At the age of four he was brought to America and settled in Chicago, where he has since remained. He attended the public schools, is a graduate of the Joseph Medill High School, attended Armour Institute of Technology and the Art Institute, 1912-1914; Chicago Technical College and finished the last year of his architectural studies under private tutors. In 1916 he took and passed the state board examination for architects at the University of Illinois and was admitted to the practice of Architecture in the state of Illinois the same year. In 1918 he enlisted with the U. S. Naval Engineers and was assigned to the construction division of the Bureau of Yards and Docks, in the Navy Department at Washington, D. C. While there, he was instrumental in the design and erection of

various Naval Bldgs., including the huge NAVY and MUNITIONS buildings in Washington, D. C, at that time the largest buildings in the world in point of floor area. Immediately after the war he was engaged as building appraiser for the Illinois Central R. R. and together with Mr. Hugo Filippi, Ass't. Chief-Engineer of the road appraised all the building properties of the I.C.R.R.. In 1921 he entered into active practice of his profession, and in 1926 he formed a partnership with Morris L. Komar, another architect of note, and founded the firm of CAPRARO & KOMAR, ARCHITECTS, which firm is still active, with offices at 208 W. Washington St., Chicago. Mr. Capraro has been identified with the design and erection of numerous buildings in Chicago and elsewhere, and has executed many commendable works among which are a number of large and pretentious apartment buildings, (the Casa Bonita Apartments on 7300 Ridge Road is recognized as one of the most beautiful apartment buildings in the city of Chicago), numerous apartment hotels, commercial buildings, clubs, churches, and public buildings. He also won, in competition with a group of well known architects, the commission to design and erect the first branch public library building, known as the John Toman Branch Library, located at 27th St. and Crawford Avenue. He has recently been appointed architect for the pavilion to be erected by the Royal Italian Government at the Century of Progress Fair.

Mr. Capraro is a member of various clubs and fraternal organization, is a Past Grand Knight of St. Francis Xavier Council, member K. of C, B. P. O. E. Oak Park Lodge, Frontenac Club, Midland Club, Alpine Gun Club, Elmhurst Golf Club, the Art Institute, and the Illinois Society of Architects.

DINO BIGALLI, conductor of Orchestra and Librarian of the Chicago Grand Opera' Company, was born at Florence, Tuscany, on June 18th, 1888. When only six years old he was admitted at the Royal Conservatory of Music, Luigi Cherubini. He soon won a scholarship and studied the piano with Prof. Del Valle. At twelve he was admitted to the study of counterpoint and fugue with Prof. Grazzini and at fifteen he began to study the organ with Prof. Landini. He acquired the diploma superiore, as instructor in the organ and later a diploma for high composition under the direction of Maestro Pizzetti. Besides he took a most comprehensive general musical course. He won the gold medal granted yearly to the best student of the organ, with full votes, (a rare occurrence). He distinguished himself as composer of various musical works, arranged operas for the piano, composing music for psalms and masses, sonatas and songs. He came to America when he was twenty-five and first appeared in concerts at Chatauqua; was then engaged by Maestro Campanini of the Chicago Civic Opera. He now belongs to the Chicago Grand Opera Company and is also Professor of the Chicago Conservatory of Music.

A story of successful effort is found in the achievements of JOSEPH GALICCHIO, Conductor of the Orchestra of the W. M. A. Q. Broadcasting Station. Joseph Galicchio was born at Calvello, Basilicata, Italy, and came to this country with his father, who was a musician. Through his own efforts, he secured a good education and graduated from the Mary F. Tuley High School. He began playing the violin at six, at twelve he was earning expenses to put himself through high school by playing the violin in an orchestra during the summer.

His interest in music was always keen and he never neglected an opportunity to perfect himself. From 1917 to 1919 he played in the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra; in 1920 he belonged to the Chicago Civic Opera and in 1921 he began his career over the air. He was Concert Master then at the Riviera Theatre and his concerts were among the very first to be broadcast. When the Uptown Theatre opened, he was engaged as Concert Master, the orchestra being broadcast over Station W.E.B.H. In 1925 Mr. Dewey of the Edgewater Beach Hotel, heard him and invited him to organize the original Edgewater Beach Hotel Orchestra. He was heard and admired over the air and in 1927, he passed to the Stevens Hotel, and conducted the concert orchestra there. The Stevens Hotel broadcast through Station W. M. A. Q. and when this station decided to put on the air an orchestra of its own, the choice fell upon Joseph Galicchio. This is the modern story of the Italian, who made good over the air. He started with seven men and now has over twenty. His music is necessarily often popular music, but he tries to preserve the highest standard, whether selections are popular or classical.

I give the story of CLAUDIA MUZIO as accurately as she told it to me in January 1932. She was bom in Italy and was taken to London at two, when her father was appointed Assistant Stage Manager at Convent Garden. She began to sing when she began to talk, trilling merrily when other children still ignore the existence of song. She was put in an English boarding school and when her parents took her out for the day, her desire was always to go back stage at Convent Garden and hear the opera sung. Her father discouraged her desire to become a singer herself. In fact, he had her voice tested by one of the most prominent singing teachers in London, Who said: "Dont let this child think she can be a singer. Slhe will never have more voice than a kitten." This did not discourage Claudia Muzio, who continued to sing for herself and when in her early teens, her parents placed her in boarding school at Turin, she pursued with passionate ardor her musical studies, though she was not permitted to have any in- struction in vocal music. When her school course was completed, she was one summer the guest of a very distinguished Italian woman, who impressed with the earnestness of her desire to become a singer, had her sing for a blind old singing teacher, who in her time had trained some of the greatest operatic stars. This woman told Claudia Muzio that she needed practice, so that her voice might be strengthened, but that she placed her voice perfectly in a most natural way, and advised her to continue her studies by herself as she had done until then. Her father heard her, relented, and told her that he would give her a chance to make her debut in Massenet's ''Manon." He gave her two weeks to prepare her score. She was received at once with enthusiasm. Claudia Muzio also excelled in the harp, piano and especially in dramatic tecnique. She made her American debut at the Metropolitan in 1916. Joined the Chicago Civic

Opera Company and has been with it ever since, except for one season, 1928-1929. She has sung in most of the great opera houses of Europe and South America. It is super- fluous to speak of the enormous success she had in her concerts. The charm which Madam Muzio has for the public in her magnificent stage setting is not diminished at all when she is met in the simplicity of her own environment. The career of a great artist involves continued application and hard work, but Claudia Muzio remains a humming bird, brilliant and fairylike in an invisible harness.

VIRGILIO LAZZARI, Basso. Virgilio Lazzari was born at Assisi, Italy, the home of St. Francis. When he was sixteen, he went to Rome to study music. After two years he joined a light opera company, continuing in this line for nine years and touring Europe and South and Central America. Light opera offered no worthy setting for so great an artist and, in 1914, he made his first appearance in grande opera at the Teatro Colon in Buenos Aires, without first obtaining the usually required approval of the Teatro La Scala in Milan. He also sang at the National Opera in Havana, the M^unicipal Opera in Mexico City and the Boston Opera. Five years later, he joined the ranks of the Chicago Civic Opera Company and appeared in the Ravinia Opera Company too. Bass voices are rare and the beauty of Virgilio Lazzari's voice was appreciated by Mary Garden, who chose him to appear in the leading basso roles with the Chicago Civic Opera Company. Virgilio Lazzari also excells in his concert work. Virgilio Lazzari has never lost his love for his native country. He thrills to the charm of Assisi, as all who have an artist's should, and he has made for himself a large number of photographs and moving picture film portraying the natural and artistic beauty of the birth place of the great Saint. Virgilio Lazzari has always been more than generous in lending his services for the benefit of his countrymen in Chicago when an appeal was made to him to sing at celebrations or benefits.

JOSEPH RAFFAELLI, Manager of the Chicago Grand Opera Company, was born at Lucca, Tuscany. He had the equivalent of a college course and then studied at the Institute Musicale of Lucca and at the Royal Conservatory of Music, of Florence, where he was a pupil of the famous Maestro Sbolci. He took a most comprehensive general musical course and specialized in the violoncello. He came to America in 1893, belonged to the orchestra of the Metropolitan Opera House of New York, then to the Manhattan Opera House of that city, and has been manager of the orchestra of the Chicago Grand Opera Company since the formation of that company twenty two years ago. A magnificent career told in few words. During his career he has had occasion to meet the greatest composers and directors of orchestra, forming thus innumerable precious friendships. But the friendships of Prof. Raffaelli are not limited to the great for his interest in and his good will toward his countrymen who seek his help and advice is unfailing. I have never met a more obliging man.

Joseph Raffaelli has a high range of interest, his hobby is the study of history to which he devotes his leisure moments, and his favorite recreation is travel. He is correspondent of the University of Perugia.

An artist and a teacher VITTORIO TREVISAN was born at Venice in Italy, from an ancient and noble family that had suffered reverses. One of his ancesters was Doge in 1583. He completed the equivalent of a college course along classical lines, and his interest in classical study and philosophy has never ceased, indeed the study of the classics still is his hobby. He had a good voice and studied voice culture at the Conversatoi-y Benedetto Mar- cello. For ten years, he sang as leading baritone in the principal cities Europe and in Egypt. He came to this country and is known by every one for the roles he has held with the Chicago Civic Opera Company and the Ravinia Opera Company. One of the greatest achievements of Vittorio Trevisan has been to make Americans

13 ITALIANS IN CHICAGO acquainted with high art in comic roles. He entered upon his career in a moment when Italian high comic art was on the decline, and he made a supreme effort to specialize as a comic baritone, reaching the heights of art and preserving the dignity of the opera. The beauty of comic high art is not often appreciated because many are incapable of understanding the refinement in art requisite to maintain a level worthy of a great artist. Vittorio Trevisan has practically imposed the appreciation of this high comic art on his public, rendering his roles unforgettable. Since 1919 he has devoted much of his time to the training of talented young singers and has prepared many excellent opera singers and teachers of voice culture.

Vittorio Trevisan could not excel as a comic baritone and as a teacher, if there wei'e not within him a deep feeling for the best in humane nature.

EDWARD CHIERA, Professor Assyriology, University of Chicago. Edward Chiera was born in Rome, Italy in 1885. His father was for many years a publisher in Rome and in 1907 he came to America with his family. Edward Chiera had already completed the equivalent of a college course in Italy, and, when he came to this country, he first took work in Crozen Theological Seminary and then in the University of Pennsylvania. He received the degrees of Master of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Pennsylvania in 1911 and 1913. Edward Chiera was one of a large family of children, his father was not a rich man and he had to secure his education by his own efforts. He is a born scholar and he concentrated on the study of Assyriology, creating for himself a special field. He spent several years in the University of Pennsylvania editing the Babylonian Tablets in the University Museum. His studies were published by the universities of Pennsylvania, Princeton, Harvard and Chicago. Though a scholar, Edward Chiera is an organizer and a man of action and the editing of the Babylonian Tablets scarcely gave an outlet to his energy, but fortunately, the monotony of mere office routine was broken up by several expeditions to Iraq where Edward Chiera organized excavations. His efforts were crowned with unusual success, for, in the City of Nuzi, he discovered over a thousand very important documents.

In 1927, he was called by the University of Chicago, where he is Professor of Assyriology. He succeeded in arousing enough enthusiasm for Assyrian studies to be entrusted with conducting an excavation for the Oriental Institute in the City of Khorsabad, a modern village situated on the great city and palace of King Sargon II (700 B. C). As director of this expedition Edward Chiera was required to show not only exceptional scholarship, intelligence and energy, but also great diplomatic tact in his intercourse with the local authorities. Edward Chiera discovered much of interest and succeeded in bringing back to America many beautiful reliefs, but his greatest trophy was the so called Assyrian bull, a stone bull weighing forty tons, in perfect preservation and undoubtedly the largest monument ever carried across the ocean. The bull is on exhibition at the

Oriental Institute where thousands flock to see it. Edward Chiera is also publishing an Assyrian dictionary. He has found a very large number of small inscribed tablets that belong together and give a valuable insight into the family life of the old Assyrians. His contributions to Assyriology cannot be measured. Edward Chiera has many other interests too numerous to be catalogued. He told me of research work in psy- chology, of his enjoyment of nature and out of door life.

He has been judge in the Municipal Court since 1923 and is now a candidate for Circuit judge—I believe I may say: he will be circuit judge in June. I have been reliably informed that, when he had the court of domestic relations, he brought together over forty thousand couples who presented themselves determined to divorce. Personally I know of nothing more interesting, convincing and charming then John Lupe in his functions as judge—it is always a privilege, for me at least, to be present when he holds court, for he is a master in his way. He draws out instead of repressing and thus, scientifically, acquires the maximum knowledge on wbich to base judgment.

His favorite pastime is fishing. Member: Chicago, Illinois and American Bar Association, Lawyers' Association of Illinois, Justinian Society of Italian Advocates, Lincolnshire Golf Club, Evergreen Golf Club, Chicago Rod and Gun Club, Wisconsin Fishing Club, Elks, Frontenac Club, Moose, Knights of Pythias, American Brotherhood and others.

ANTHONY J. MERCURIC takes a first place among the young lawyers whose unflinching determination to secure an education brought him success in his profession. His father, a newspaperman well known in Italy and in America, came to this country from Termini Imerese, Prov. of Palermo, when Anthony Mercurio was eleven years old and settled in Utica New York. There the boy received a public school education, which was interrupted when, having completed the grade schools, he had to go to work to support his father and mother. Shortly after the U. S. entered the World War, he enlisted in the army, serving in the Chemical Warfare Service Department and, in 1919, upon his discharge from the army, he came to Chicago determined to make up for the educational advantages that had been denied him and to enter the legal profession. He secured his high school credits by taking, in one year only, the entrance examinations for the University of Illinois, (he was his own tutor), and then attended the Lewis Institute for one year. Then he worked in a law office, gathering general experience in the daytime, but attending evening courses at Kent College of Law. In 1924 he completed the law course and was at once admitted to the bar. He has since been engaged in the general practice of law. He has been very active in politics and in 1931 he held the office of secretary to a member of the Board of Assessors. He was secretary for one year of the Justinian Society of Italian Advocates.

VINCENZO SCAFA, whose father Pasquale was in business at Naples, Italy, was born in that city, and received his degree of Doctor of Jurisprudence from the Univer- sity of Naples, specializing in anthropology and criminal sociology. The same university granted him a certificate that qualified him for consular and diplomatic service. He came to Chicago in 1923 and was executive officer in several banks. Lately he has opened the Italian Legal Bureau and Steamship Agency at 201 N. Wells St.

Vincenzo Scafa does not handle American legal cases at all. He offers assistance in cases requiring a full knowledge of the Italian law and draws up legal documents such as powers of attorney, wills, donations, deeds for mortgages, contracts and af- fidavits. He guarantees legal correctness in the translation of documents from English into Italian and viceversa.

Like most Italians he is interested in art and literature, but particularly in social problems.

HORATIO TOCCO is another of our professional men who owes his present position to his own efforts. He was born in Faeto province of Foggia in 1891. His mother taught school there for a number of years and his father, who came to this country when Horatio Tocco was only six months old, was a graduate of the Liceo of Foggia. He came to this country at the age of fourteen and supported himself in various Ways, till, at nineteen, he entered the employ of Armour and Company as Italian representative of the Extract Department. He continued to educate himself in various ways and finally concentrated upon the study of law.

From high school he went direct to the North Western University, self supporting again, successfully securing his degree in law from this great Western Institution. He now specializes in corporation, banking and commercial law and is director and officer of more corporations than I can here enumerate.

19 ITALIANS IN CHICAGO

He has for years been earnestly interested in social service work and for many years has worked with the Italian boys in the Chicago Commons. While in high school and in college he was greatly interested in dramatics and this stood him in good stead in his efforts for his young countrymen. His own interests are varied and this makes him a ready listener to any cultural proposition that may be launched by Italians and for Italians. He belongs to the St. Francis Xavier Council of the Knights of Columbus, the Lake Shore Athletic Club, the Columbian Country Club, the Law Institute, the Chicago and the Illinois Bar Associations.

Dr. EUGENE CHESROW was born in Chicago thirty seven years ago. His parents were poor, his father had poor health and did not always contribute to the support of the family, so that since early childhood Eugene Chesrow had to work and contribute to the limit of his ability to his expenses and those of his relatives. He worked himself through the grade schools and high school, then through the University of Valparaiso and through the Chicago College of Medicine and Surgery from which he received his medical degree in 1914—only twenty years old. His internship was spent in the Colum- bus Hospital. For the last ten years he has been attending surgeon in the Columbus Extension and Mother Cabrini Hospital. He was elected to the American College of Surgeons, the first Italian in Chicago to be thus honored. He is also a member of very many Medical & Surgical societies as well as most of the military organizations. In 1917 he enlisted in the United States Army and was sent to France as a com- manding officer of Ambulance Company 39 early in 1918. He was attached to many of the American divisions and several French division in the sectors of Chateau Thierry, Champagne and Chemin des Dames. In September 1919 he resigned as «aptain, but is still very active in the medical reserve holding a lieutenant-colonelcy in that branch of the service. Dr. Chesrow has four brothers: ALBERT CHESROW, thirty-five years old, who, after finishing high school, graduate dfrom the School of Medicine of Loyola University in 1919; after finishing his internship he was for three years assistant to his brother Eugene and now has his own practice specializing in GjTiecology and Obstetrics; he is a member of the State Medical and the Chicago Medical Societies. DAVID CHESROW, after finishing high school, entered the University of Valparaiso, graduating in 1924. Then he attended Kent College of Law and, in 1925, received the degree of Master in Law. He is active in politics and is Deneen Committeeman of the 27th Ward. He practices both in criminal and federal law. FRANCIS CHESROW, who, after finishing high school, entered the University of Valparaiso, graduating in Pharmacy in 1924. He owns and operates the Chesrow Pharmacy at 1001 S. Ashland Boulevard. He is a member of many pharmaceutical societies. RICHARD CHESROW who, after finishing high school, entered the School of Dentistry of Loyola University, from which he graduated. Back of this story of five brothers, four of whom owe much of their achievement to their oldest, looms the magnificent figur of their mother, almost legendary in the Italian colony, for the untiring energy with which she spurred her sons on in their studies,, working her fingers to the bone to keep them in school, when her sick husband could not even provide for himself. Eugene, the oldest of her brood stood staunchly by her, till she found herself the proud mother of five professional men. One of the many heroic mothers of whom we hear nothing, whose name is never mentioned among those who deserve most credit for the marvelous advancement of the Italian group. The legend also tells how she has pledged her sons to mercy for those women who struggling with poverty need the charity of medical care—and, I think that Dr. Eugene Chesrow

20 ITALIANS IN CHICAGO has the largest charity practice in Chicago. His poor patients do not come to him, they flock.

GEORGE DE TRANA, whose father Frank came to Chicago from Italy in 1905 Calvello, Province of Potenza, Italy 1969, was born in Chicago, he graduated from the grade schools at twelve, from the McKinley High School at fifteen, from the University of Illinois at 19, got his degree of M.

Dr. S. A. SCIARETTA has a fine professional record, but I think, also offers one of the most interesting stories of emigrant boys—I wish I had more. He was born at Termoli, Province of Campobasso, of a well to do family and his father Domenico was much interested in his education. When Dr. Sciarretta had finished the equivalent of the high school, his father arrenged to have him go to Switzerland to take a special commercial course. Dr. Sciarretta left for Switzerland well provided with funds, but decided he would go to England instead, and, having gone as far as Rotterdam, he changed his mind again and took a boat to the United States. There he soon found himself short of funds and wrote home for money. His father sent him, at once, what was needed for a return ticket, with orders to come home immediately. The boy—only sixteen—spent the remittance and wrote again asking for more. This his father refused, but arranged to have a steamer ticket for Naples given him. The boy sold the .ticket and wrote home for funds. This time the father offered the fare, with the condition that he would get his ticket when he went on board. This hurt the lad's feelings and he found work which made him self supporting. He came West and always self-supporting, he managed to enter the University of Valparaiso and was there for one year, from there, he went to the Chicago College of Medicine and Sxirgery where he graduated. He earned all his expenses. He served

21 ITALIANS IN CHICAGO

his internship at the Columbus Hospital and then started in private practice, but this was interrupted when from 1918-1919, he served in the Army on the French Front. He left the service as captain and resumed his practice of medicine in Chicago. He took graduate courses in ear, nose and throat deseases under renowned Viennese special- ists and in 1926 limited his practice to this field, becoming a certified oto-rino-laringo- logist. He is now a fellow of the American College of Surgeons: Senior Member and Head of Department of the John B. Murphy Hospital, Junion Member of the St. Luke Hospi- tal; Clinical Assistant at the Loyola University school of Medicine.

Dr. SALVATORE VELLA stands out not only for his personal achievements, but for having secured for his three young sisters the educational ad^'antages that he conquered for himself. It is the story of the proud brother. Dr. Vella was born at Valle d'Olmo, Province of Palermo, in 1887. At fifteen he had completed the Technical Schools of Agriculture at Palermo. Lack of funds pre- vented his pursuing his education in Italy, and at 16 he came to this country where he earned his living doing odd jobs. After two years he sent for his family, father, mother and four little sisters and they first settled at Fredonia, N. Y. where there was a prosperous Sicilian colony and one of the best normal schools in the State of New York. He worked and he studied. After eleven months his mother died, leaving the family prostrated with grief. In their discomfort they left Fredonia and went to Buffalo, and after Dr. Vella had finished high school there, he went to the University of Valparaiso where his family again joined him. After two years he brought his flock to Chicago, soon graduated from the Chicago College of Physicians and Surgeons and later from the Medical School of Loyola University. He became a general practitioner, and established manyfold con- nections. On associate staff of American Hospital; Surgeon of Illinois Steel C, Gary, Ind., Public Health Physician, Chicago, Examining Physician Woodmen of the World; Member American Medical Association; Italian Academy of Medicine; Chief Medical Examiner, Order Sons of Italy; State of Illinois, Examining Physician, Local Board

Nr. 1, Chicago, during the World War. Also, educator of four younger sisters. When the mother died, she left four little daughters, the youngest only two years old and the oldest fourteen. Dr. Vella would not allow the oldest girl to lose her schooling and they trained the baby so that she might be seen and not heard ,and then went to the principal of the school the children attended and obtained that the baby would be allowed in class with the oldest girl in the forenoon, and with the second oldest in the afternoon. The housework was so organized that all did their full share at night and the household was in full order in the morning to attend the educational needs. No matter how difficult conditions were, the girls were not allowed to drop their studies. Maria, the oldest, graduated from the School of Pharmacy, University of Valpa- raiso, Ninetta took a teacher's course, became High School Principal in White Cloud, Mich, then graduated in pharmacy from the University of Illinois and now owns a magnificent pharmacy in California. Rosina graduated from the American College of Physical Culture and is now a successful instructor. Giuseppina, the model Sicilian baby, graduated from the American College of Physical Culture, and is now principal of a Junior High School at Long Beach California. This is the record of the young Sicilian emigrant, who raised four sisters and was not satisfied unless he secured for them educational advantages to equal his ovsm.

The most important Italian newspaper in Chicago is the ITALIA, owned and founded by OSCAR DURANTE in his early teens. Oscar Durante was born at Naples in 1869 and came to Chicago in 1885. He has been active in public life and has shown himself sincerely interested in the preservation of Italian culture as a complement to an English education. For many years he has been chairman Chicago Board of Educa- tion and for four years has been Vice president of the Board. He was assisted in his work by his brother Ettore who died recently. He has now on the editorial staff of the Italia Nicola Lo Franco.

NICOLA LO FRANCO was born in Caulonia, Calabria. He finished the equivalent of a college course in Italy and began his newspaper career with the Giomale d'ltalia in Rome. At twenty he came to Chicago and was connected with the Patria owned by M. Mastrogiovanni, then with the Movimento owned by P. Parise. After that he assu- med his present position with the Italia.

La NUOVA ITALIA, a weekly, is the last Italian Newspaper to appear, for its first number is dated April 23, 1933 and it gives good promise of not being by any means the least. ACHILLE F. BAMBARA is the owner and director of the paper. He came from Villa San Giovanni, Reggio Calabria, Italy, very young, after varying experience he became interested in theatrical enterprises and opened the first moving picture theatre in Chicago, the "Fashion Theatre" that still exists. The paper is editer by CARLO MEOLA, who was born at Naples in 1879. Bom to affluence the family suffered financial reserves and, as a young boy, he began a serious struggle in life. He finished the equivalent of a college course and then did considerable graduate work at the University of Naples. Then he served in the Army as officer in Field Artillery. He left Army and began his career as newspaper man, connecting himself with some of the most important newspapers in Naples. He came to the United States in 1906. He taught Italian in the New York high schools, resuming his newspaper work with the Progresso of New York. Then he came to Chicago and was editor and proprietor of the Cittadino of Chicago. He became one of the editors of the Italia and for many years was also correspondent of the Corriere di America of New York. He is at present also manager of the Italian Department of the World's Fair Tourist Club. He belongs to many associations and is particularly active in the Figli d'ltalia in which he has held high offices. I know of no one more sincerely interested in the welfare of the Italians in Chicago and more generous in helping any deserving enterprise either in the Press or through personal effort.

Among the Italians in Chicago, there was no more colorful, impressive and beloved figure than that of ALESSANDRO MASTRO VALERIC, best known as the founder, the proprietor and the editor of the Italian weekly LA TRIBUNA TRANS- TALANTICA ITALIANA. Alessandro Mastro Valeric was born in Sannocandro Garganico, provincia di Fog- gia. He was an officer in the Italian Navy and served from 1876 to 1880, cruising during that period mostly on the REGIA CORVETTA GOVERNALE in the Southern Atlantic. This period of his career left an indelible mark on him, and a mere change of clothes would give us again an incomparable seaman. He came to the United States in 1882 and to Chicago in 1886. His activities were manifold and a full enumeration is impossible.

23 ITALIANS IN CHICAGO

He founded two agricultural colonies in Alabama, trying to prevent the over- crowding of the Italian emigrants in urban centers. He was instrumental in having the law of compulsory education passed and for years acted as volunteer truant officer,, instilling into his fellow country men the love of education which has helped the Italian group make such marvelous strides. In 1898 he founded the TRIBUNA TRANSATLANTICA ITALIANA a weekly- publication deserving the most sincere praise. It was often a great treat to find in the TRIBUNA the reprint of some of the most interesting and important articles published recently in Italy. Nor was it less interesting to find, in the chronicle of Chicago, the use of many terms belonging to the jargon formed by the Italian emigrant who often has given American terms an Italianized form. The publication of this weekly was suspended recently to the great regret of its readers, Alessandro Mastro Valerie has recently returned to his birthplace. Yet it is not what has done, but what he is that counts, and to a large number ©f us he still is the best beloved of the Italians in Chicago,

The ITALIAN AMERICAN NATIONAL UNION is the oldest Italian association in the United States, and is probably the only mutual benefit society that, besides numbering among its members 5000 adults, has a juvenile department which numbers over one thousand members. The society has a State deposit of one hundred thousand dollars and is under the direct control of the Department of Trade and Commerce of the State of Illinois. It is greatly to the credit of the Italo-American National Union that, in spite of the prolonged crisis that has wrecked many institutions, it has continued in an upward course and that on December 1932 its yearly accounting showed a favorable balance superior to that of any preceding year, although the insurances paid exceeded those of 1931, Its President, assisted loyally by the other officers of the society, is working out a vast program of reorganization and modernization that will greatly increase the importance of the Italian-American Union, The excellent financial status of the Italian-American Union as a mutual benefit society is only one of its merits, I have been in touch with the society for over six years and can give the highest praise for the support they have given initiatives that were to benefit the rising generation, Jerry Priore, whose death was a loss to many, was secretary when I first got in touch with this Union, and was unsparing in his efforts in behalf of the evening centers we were trying to open in cooperation with the Board of Education, Constantino Vitello was "Vice-president at the time and gave our work all his backing. The plans of the Union include a continuation and intensification of civic work among young Italo-Americans.

Among those interested in aiding the development of the Italian colony of Chicago I can number MR. J, STRUMPEN-DARRIE, until recently head of the BERLITZ SCHOOL OF LANGUAGES in Chicago, 56 East Congress, It was with him that I arranged for classes in English for those Italians who, though they had a general knowledge of the English language, needed special training either in pronunciation or in the idiomatic use of the language or in both,, and for classes in Italian for the children of Italians who wished to i)erfect themselves in the native tongue of their parents. Only native teachers were employed. The cultured Italian in Chicago only too often finds avenues of employment and business closed to him because he knows English imperfectly. The intermediary often

causes costly, indeed, irreparable mistakes. Much of the life of this country and this people is lost to the one who moves among them like a dfeaf mute—seeing, but not hearing and unable to convey his thoughts to others. To the Italian race, on the other hand, their language and literature not only brings inestimable treasures, but the intimate knowledge of their language and literature is of the highest value, giving them a distinct advantage over their American fellow citizens, for it not only facilitates the study of Latin, but offers in itself a firm foundation for a more understanding study of Anglo-American civilization, reaching far beyond a mere study of language and literature. Mr. J. Strumpen-Darris has been called to New York, but his son remains to take his place and we can hope that he will continue successfully in the work that his father fostered.

Foremost among the friends of the Italians in Chicago stands the REVEREND FREDERICK SIEDENBURG, for years dean of the Downtown College and School of Sociology of Loyola University and now executive dean of the University of Detroit. In 1912 Father Siedeburg organized a Sunday School attended almost exclusively by Italians, at the Maria Addolorata Church, corner of Peoria and Grand Avenue. The school grew so amazingly that before long two floors in the Montefiore Public School were rented, the staff of teachers grew from ten to eighty and over eight hundred students were enrolled. Feather Siedenburg was connected with the school for eight years. I have found his assistance in the work I have been doing invaluable. He granted free use of the class rooms at Loyola Downtown College for lectures in Italian, and for two years granted the Fascist University the use of a class room free of charge. But the occasions upon which he showed his practical interest cannot be numbered. I take this opportunity of expressing my deep gratitude for and appreciation of all he has done. Father Siedenburg is a native of Ohio. He took his A. B. from Xavier University in 1893 and his A. M. from St. Louis University in 1899. He did research work at the University of Innsbruck and the University of Vienna. He is president of the Illinois State Conference of Social Welfare, is a member of the State Board of Public Welfare and holds many other position of importance in social work.

In 1926 H. M: the KING OF ITALY, by royal decree, made W. G. HAY, knight of the Order of tlie Crown of Italy, in recognition of his distinguished radio services in behalf of the Italian people in the U. S. This links him to the Italian colony in Chi- cago, and doubly so because he is the only "cavaliere" of foreign birth w'ho has furnished me a biography, making him one of the distinguished group whose history I have tried to outline. From the bonnies braes of Scotland comes this nationally famous favorite of the air. W. G. "Bill" Hay, whose genuinely friendly voice brings to the listening world each night the two great radio entertainers, Amos and Andy, winning the confidence of his audience through his sincere manner of presentation and perfect diction. On Sunday night over WMAQ the Chicago Daily News Station, Bill Hay, in the role of Auld Sandy, creates an atmosphere of the land of heather by entertaining with beloved old Scotch songs and homey Scotch poems given in his native tongue. Besides being WMAQ's Chief Announcer and exclusive chain announcer for the Pepsodent Company, sponsors of Amos 'n' Andy and the Goldbergs, Mr, Hay is Director of Sales for this Station.

JUDITH C. WALLER. It is fit that I should close this series of sketches with a tribute to Judith C. Waller who for three years, at my request, granted the free use ef the W.M.A.Q. for the broadcasting of lessons in the Italian language and literature, Judith Waller was then Vice-President and Station Manager of the W.M.A.Q. and is now Educational Director of the N.B.C. The Italian was kept on the educational program till all languages were taken off, with the exception of Spanish and French, which were continued for only one half hour a week each. Absolutely nothing has been done that contributed more to the dessimination of Italian culture than the lessons broadcast for the W.M.A.Q. I am still grateful to Miss Waller for having entrusted me with this task which proved possibilities in this line of work hitherto unsuspected and of inestimable value to the American citizen of Italian blood, not only in preserving for them the cultural treasures of their forefathers, but also in promoting a better understanding of the English Language and its Literature. The Italian government has been conferring gold medals for contribution to the dessimination of Italian culture, I trust that the next official list will contain the name of JUDITH C. WALLER, and I also hope that the Italians of the United States, when the present crisis is over, will raise the funds necessary to worthily continue the work started for them.
