AOSTA, EMANUELE FILIBERTO, DUKE OF (1869 1931), Italian general, was born Jan. 13 1869, the eldest son of Prince Amedeo of Savoy, duke of Aosta, and thus a cousin of Victor Emmanuel III. He adopted a military career, but this was interrupted by a serious illness, and when the World War began he was on the retired list. Later, however, he was appointed to the command of the 3rd Army. After the war the City of Naples gave him the Palace of Capodimonte, which had been ceded to it by the King, and it was there that he fixed his residence. He was for some years president of the Opera Nazionale Dopolavoro, an institution for providing recreation and instruction to the working classes after the day's work was over. In June 1926 he was created marshal.
