Rome, Jan. 5.-(Special)- -Buffalo
Bill's Wild West has "advertised" Am-
erica throughout Europe. His circus
playing frequently to European spect-
ators, has left a trail of false im-
pressions behind it. The American.
"movies" shown here only emphasize
them.
The case of Madame Montre inter-
viewed today in a Rom n boarding
house is by no means uncommon. She
is a well-known writer and literary
woman.
"O, you are an American," she be-
gan. 'I am so glad to meet you. For
I am making a scientific study of Am-
erica.
"I was recently presented to some
people from a state called Indiana.
Really they didn't look so much like
Inidians. Of course, their manners
were a little off.
"It must be very difficult for one
to live in the states. The constant
clash of the American and the In-
dian civilizations is undoubtedly a
nerve-racking annoyance.
"Of course, the poor Indians really
did give a civilization to the world.
They were a simple and natural peo-
ple, having a real art and a real
literature.
"The Indian at least has blood and
not machine oil in his veins. Natural-
ly, there are some savages, the good
being always mixed with the bad."
The Americans are frequently call-
ed "the Germans of the New World."
New York City is regarded as the be-
ginning and end of the United States.
