...unsealed a ballot plainly emblazoned with the Fascist device.* Placid, bespectacled Pope Pius XI and other churchmen actually resident in the new Papal State could not vote because they are no longer citizens of Italy. Dopesters estimated that His Holiness' influence had flung into the scale of Fascismo at least 1,000,000 extra votes. A sadder if not wiser voter was Crown Prince Umberto of Savoy.

Even if they are given no information they should at least he spared the misapprehensions and the irritations which are the natural outcome of misinformation. Mr. Lowell cannot hope to keep Harvard out of the papers any more than the assistant football manager can hope to suppress the Harvard football news. And even if he could, it is by no means certain...
