CABINET
HAS RESIGNED
FAILURE OF CONFIDENCE VOTE
BY THE ITALIAN CHAMBER
CAUSES THE ACTION
IN OFFICE FOR TWO MONTHS
Premier Has Been the Object OF Bit
ter Attacks In the Past Year.
Ministers Have Faced Excep-
tlonaI Period of Unrest

Rome, May 1.-THE ministry of
which Premier Nltti was the head has
resigned.
The decision to resign came when
the chamber adopted, 1913 to 112, a
motion by the socialists regarding
posts and %telegraphs. Signor Nitti
called for a rejection of the motion and
demanded that the balloting be con
sidered a vote Of confidence in the
ministry. The popular party voted
with the socialists.
The italian cabinet, of which Fran
cesco Nitti was premier and minister
of the interior, was formed March Is,
1920. Signor Nitti, however, was head
Of the cabinet from June, 1919, sue
ceeding Vittorio Orlando.
Premier Nitti has been the object
of innumerable bitter attacks In the
last year and on the eve of the re-
opening of the chamber Of deputies,
early in May, there were animated dis
cussions among the deputies Of all
groups as TO the attitude to be taken
toward the ministry. The Catholics
resented the policy of the government
toward the socialists as excessively
mild, but it was recognized generally
that Signor Nitti and his ministers
faced an exceptional period of unrest,
particularly on the part of labor.

EYE HAS GREAT sENsITIVITY
Wonderful Human Organ Capable Of
Adapting Itself to Any Possible
Circumstances.

On entering a dark room after a
stay in the outside daylight the eye
at once begins to increase in sensi-
tivity. At first this increase appears to
be slow, but after five minutes the in
crease Is quite rapid, the eye acquir-
ing a sensitivity several hundred tines
It's initial value. After 80 min
utes' sojourn In the dark the SENSITIVE
ity still increases but more slowly
than before, and after 45 minutes or
an hour the maximum sensitivity Is
reached. The final sensitivity varies
slightly with different people, but in
fully adapted condition the eye Is cas-
fly 5000 or 10000 times more sensitive
than it was at the beginning.
These facts are obtained from a
study of the sensitiveness Of the eye
in the dark made by Selig Hecht Of
Creighton university, Omaha, and pub
lished in the Journal of General
Physiology. Mr.. Hecht's study goes
to show that the increased sensitive
ness is due to a reversible photochem-
teal reaction within the retina, involv-
ing a photosensitive substance and Its
two products of decomposition.
