AUSTRIAN AVIATORS MAY BOMBARD ROME

ROME, Dec. 14. (Correspondence of The Associated Press) Notwithstanding the presence of the Pope, respect for or fear of whom is supposed so

far to have saved Rome from aerial attacks, it is now taken for granted that

the Eternal City with her countless

monuments and works of art may soon be attacked by Austrian aviators.

The Italian military authorities have been actively engaged for several months preparing to protect the city

from a raid, with an elaborate signal

system arranged by William Marconi

to warn the defenders of the city of

the approach of enemy aeroplanes

The Roman newspapers recently pub

lished notices that the alarm would

consist of five cannon shots, with the

usual ringing of church bells as a signal that the danger was over. Will Prevent Attacks. While so far it has proven impossible to prevent sporadic attacks on

London, Paris, Venice, and other cities, arrangements have been made

that may at least prevent the escape of raiders who attack Rome. The city is favored by two low mountain ranges between her and the Adriatic sea, a distance of 125 miles. But Bhould the aeroplanes escape the coast guns and the anti-aerial guns planted on these mountain tops, the advancing aeronauts will still find in their path numerous squadrons of Italian machines. The city itself is armed with numerous high power searchlights and anti-aerial guns. The famous Seven Hills of Rome, including the Capitoline above the Forum, has each been so armed. The Janiculum Hill, which dominates St. Peter's church and the Vatican, the Pope's residence, has several guns planted on its brow. The Vatican is protected by another set of guns near the Castel Sant 'Anfelo, the solid and lofty, marble tomb built for the Emperors, when Rome was the world's battle center, and later converted into a fortress. While there is no uneasiness felt by the people of Rome for their own safety, it is certain, however that a bomb dropped anywhere inside its limits could hardly miss destroying some work of art in the world's richest monumental city.

ATTORNEYS QUESTION COLLECTORS' RIGHTS

Deluged with complaints received from people in moderate circumstances over efforts now being made to collect delinquent taxes several lawyers are investigating the state statutes to determine whether the 1914 legislature passed a law which actually invalidated a law passed in 1897 exempting

from taxation household goods listei for a valuation of $100 or less. At the county treasurer's office the claim i3 made that this 1897 tax law was re-tealed.-Two local attorneys today expressed a doubt as to whether the law nad been repealed. . - Incidents both pathetic and amusing are related regarding the delinquent tax board and both praise and censure, ror the most part censure, " for th'3 methods which have some times been resorted to by the collectors.
