anger and hostility Of the Deputies,
several shouting across the chamber at
the government bench from which the
Premier was speaking. There was
great tumult and cries of "The Allies
have never been faithful to usl Why
should we be faithful to them?"
Chamber Thrown Into Uproar
Signor Orlando's fateful utterance 80
stirred the deputies that the remainder
OF his speech received but little at
tertiop. The 1ntransigeant Socialists,
led by Deputy Modegliani, were espe-
cially violent, while the discomfort OF
the others was voiced by Francesca
Nitti, former Minister Of the Treasury.
majority of the Deputies clamored
for discussion of tre governments
foreign policy and Premier Orlando
proposed secret session for this pur-
pose. From many of the benches
deputies cried out, "No, mol" The ex-
citement became most intense
Signor Nitti endeavored to bring
the discussion begin in public with the
understanding that the public sitting
be transferred into a secret one if
such a step were considered necessary
by the Premier, and the chamber ap-
proved it. Premier Orlando, however,
insisted upon the necessity of a secret
session. He pointed out that no parlia-
ment of any of the victorious nations
had as yet discussed it's international
policy publicly, and he asked for vote
on his own proposition, saying that it
was not only a question of confidence
but also of dignity
Among the members who voted
against the Cabinet were former Pre-
mier Giolitti and former Ministers
Nitti and Bissolati.
In the corridor of the chamber after
the vote former Minister Gallenga ex-
pressed his view Of the result thus:
"The deputies and the people are
tired of this situation. The delay and
the uncertainty are affecting Italian
prestige. Therefore has arisen the ne
cossity for having new men in power
better adapted to organization for fac
lnE the grave problems with which
Italy is confronted"
Other views expressed by the Sena-
tors and Deputies. who animatedly
discussed the situation, were that the
fall of the Cabinet was the result Of
several months of discomfort with the
governments foreign policy, exempli-
fed in the peace negotiations in Paris,
eliminating with President Wilson's
refusal to accede under any form, to
the Italian demands, and likewise
threatening the internal situation. The
home situation was attributed to many
factors. including what was called "the
lack of government" as both of the
leading figures in the government,
Premier Orlando and Foreign Minister
Sonnino, have been in Paris for near
ly the entire period since December.
On several occasions, it was pointed
out by members, the Parliament had
granted votes of confidence, notably
the one following the triumphant en-
try into Rome of the Premier and the
Foreign Minister last April, when they
abandoned the peace conference to
seek the Endorsement of the legisla-
tive body. The former votes of conf
dence, it was declared, were meant to
strengthen the hands of Italy's repre-
the most critical sort, but did not
eign policies.
After Premier Orlando had an
nounced his resignation Deputy Turati
proposed that the chamber proceed to
discuss the electoral reform bill,
which aims to substitute the system of
electlng one representative from each
electoral district for that by which
deputies are elected at large from the
provinces. The proposal to discuss
this measure was adopted.
The chamber also approved the pro-
posal made by Deputy Rosadi for a
discussion of the vote of credit on Sat-
urday, after which the sitting will be
declared raised, Premier Orlando and
| his ministers remaining at their posts
| for ordinary administrative purnoses
