Will the cabinet be able to carry
it out? In any event the life of the

the ministry will certainly survive it

Country Without Ships.

This. he said, was in face of the fact
that the country was without ships or
rawstuffs, and that all the effective
sources Of income were required to meet
the expenses Of public appointments and
PENSIONS The situation was aggravated
by new form of protection now arising
everywhere, consisting of disposition
on the part of the country to save raw
material and to export only the products
of manufacture. Under these conditions
was it possible to talk of revolution?
Signor Nitti declared that to do so was
criminal for it would signify complete
destruction. The chamber gave lively
approval to the assurance given by the
premier that everything would be done
to enforce order and to consider all at
lacks as traitorous
The chamber remained cold, however
when Signor Nitti declared that the gov
eminent desired to realize electoral re-
forn, with proportional representation.
This seemed curious in view of rhe fact
that the chamber had overthrow the
Orlando cabinet chiefly on this very
question, but it must be said that the
reform is inconvenient for d number of
the deputies However. this reform will
be truly useful to Italy after the gov
eminent realizes it.

PREMIER N|TT||S
HAILED AS SUCCESS
Declarations at Opening OF
Chamber of Deputies For
Bode Good Reign.
BY TANCRED ZANGHIERI.
Special Cable to The Sunday Star and
Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1919.

ROME, July 1.-THE declarations
of Premier Nitti at the opening of
the chamber of deputies assure the
life of the ministry. Not only did
the great ma jority in the chamber
applaud him and more than half of
the deputies hurry up to shake hands
with him after the speech. but news
papers formerly opposed to him were
compelled to acknowledge his sue
cess. His address was practical one,
such as was to be expected from an
economist. Starting with an acknowl
edgment of the actual conditions. and
without CLOSING over anything. he
declared himself anxious to overcome
all difficulties, however grave the
situation might be.
Premier Nitti's speech consisted of
two parts, the first treating of urgent
questions and the second of the pro-
gram for the future. This was given
in such detail as to make it appear
as if it were a platform for an cleo
toral campaign instead of possible
legislative action in the near future.
Affirming that the country ought to
know the truth, he said that the Ital-
ian debt amounted to $4,000, 000. 900
lire ts15.60o.00O,O 10000 and placed
burden on patriotism much greater
than before the war.
