4 FLOUR TAX IN ITlLE,
Rudinl Proposes to Renew An Unpopular
lmpOst


ROME, April 1S-1t Is learned that Premier
oil Rudini will propose the revival OF the tax on
flour to cover the existing deficit. This tax
formerly yielded SU.OOO.OUO francs annually.
but was exceedingly unpopular. as it rested
most heavily on the poorer classes. Rudini
will Introduce the tax gradually for fear OF
brend riots. and will keep his plan latent until
after May Day to avoid provoking violent de-
lnonstrations against 1t by workingmen. The
first rate OF the tax will beabout ono half of the
former one. and will net the Government, it Ia
estimated. about 4UWWGOO francs. This will
cover the deficit OF 3O.OUD.OOO. tho Indirect
cause OF the recent Cabinet crisis. and leave Il
surplus for extraordinary expenditures for the
navy.
Rudini says that tho deficit is the result Of
CrisDi'S reckless expenditure for army and
navy. rs dictated by Prince Bismarck and his
foreign policy Had his own Ministry not
made supreme efforts to economizr Kudni
contends. the deficit would now be 100, OUO.U 900
instead OF U.OOO.OUO. Rudini's first PROPOSE
tion was to cease the construction of tho pro-
posed strateGical railways and to cut or ex-
Ienses for the elaborate system of coast de-
fences. but King Humbert It il understood.
refused to listen to such proposals.
Tho -four tax will be bitterly opposed by tho
Radicals and. however gradually introduced.
will probably lead to workingmens demon
