Who - Our ancestors have not grasped what comes to meet them there. There were at Saint-Germain - 1919 by the Americans - the Americans have granted Italy. By all rights, German schools, in short, as has previously been under Austria Italy. The Trent cry today, after the emperor. Down in Trento. And Italians are .. . And now everything has become wrong and have been pushing the neck. As of the beginning of what has happened with the Innes. Then they have - as I said - run the economy in the 20's. The people who risked much - it is a building and it's been - in short, they have risked a lot and many guarantees and so on. And then, the early 30's, they have upgraded to lira. That the debts that have had many that are not worth what you have. Then you got no more credit, and then the debt has risen so much that the farmers never know if they heard something. These are the 30's what I've written here before. What the - the whole mess that came out. Poverty and everything. That's it - that's all the fault of those. But it must be so! All they have caused. Against us. You have shown us the long nose, because Austria has never us. Because Austria has lost the war, the war front. And have mocked us. My father told me, as prisoners, they have mocked him down in Italy. And Austria has so wanted no war. 'S has been so bound in by the fall of Sarajevo. But anyway - and then they go forth and make us as directly as slaves. We were slaves, slaves. Yes, and as I said, if you can not live without it - - then you will know. Prayed prayed, we prayed just always. Yes, I had to pray much, to love God and the Mother of God up there - this is our picture of grace, see? The Mother of God has helped, yes. Today they recognize that not more. Is a shame. Yes, anyway. -
