ed a movement supported by the dip
lomatists representing the countries
where companies doing business in
Italy had their head offices which
/ produced. perhaps greater effect
than the combined agitation of the
deputies and of the people.
The representatives OF the United
States, Great Britain, France, Ger
many, Switzerland and Austria-Hu
/ garia maintained that the sudden ex-
! pulsion of foreign companies, which
! for years had operated in Italy where
they employed enormous amounts of
capital and where they had establish
ed important permanent interests un-
der laws passed by the Italian parlia-
ment might almost be considered a
breach of good faith.
Modify the Measure.
AS a result of these protests the
insurance bill had not received the
approval of parliament when the
summer recess was taken, and during
the vacation period Signor Nitti and
Premier Giolitti took the opportunity
to study the question more fully and
to add to the bill certain provisions
by which the foreign countries could
continue, for the time being to work
in Italy, though in an inferior posi-
ton compared to that of the govern
ment institute of insurance. The
measure then, with few additional
amendments, was again presented to
parliament, which passed it by a large
majority.
The scheme will be an experiment
in socialism under monarchical gov
itary and civil servants in Italy the
government deducts each month a
tax corresponding practically to an
income tax. A percentage of the sum
collected goes toward the working
mems pension fund, which entities

he voluntarily leaves the service or
dies before the expiration of twenty
five years to one months salary for
each year that the man has served.
Pension Rate Increases.
After twenty-five years the PEN
sioner receives one-third of the sal
airy earned, and the amount of the
benefits gradually grows until after
forty years Of service the employe is
entitled to a full pension.
The governments idea is to extend
this system to all individuals who
even indirectly have dealings with the
governmental, provincial or munich
pal authorities, and also to those
workers for whom insurance against
accident already is compulsory on the
part Of the employers The institute
of insurance in employing help will
give preference to the clerks Of the
present companies.
Among the advantages to be deriy-
ed from the institute is one by which
the insured who pay premiums at any
government office, such as the post
telegraph, telephone. customs and tax
collectors, and at the offices OF the
salt and tobacco monopolies. etc, will

Government Fixes Rates.
The new law provides that the sur
viving insurance companies may Ope-
rate only under a tariff prescribed by
the government, and they cannot
make reduction in any form to their
clients not even in the shape of pri-
vate restitution of taxes paid to the

to bring to the exchequer an amount

that this immense fund shall be in

will render possible, perhaps in the
near future, the reduction of the in
