T0PSY TURvY, Y,ITALY'S
SOCIAL ORDER when
men OCCUPY PLANTS
(By Associated Press)

ROME, Sept. 9.-Efforts continue to
bring about solution Of the situation
which has arisen throughout Italy as
a result of the movement among metal
workers to occupy plants in many OF
the most important industrial centers.
The government has been called up
on to intervene, but so far has been
neutral and It is said by newspapers
it will act only to insure maintenance
of order.
Reports received here indicate that
quiet prevails at all affected centers
and that engineers, foremen and cler'
ical STATS employed at occupied plants
still refuse to join the workers.
The fact that delegates from work
mems and employers organizations
are in communication with each other
is looked upon as being favorable to an
adjustment of the situation.
Workers Are Socialists
It is declared the majority Of the
metal workers are controlled by ex-
treme socialists who are desirous of
giving the movement a political char
acter, but responsible leaders of the
party are said to discourage such d
policy.
At many places the workers have
announced they are ready to convert
themselves into cooperative societies
which would undertake the direct man.

revolutionary attempts which would
soon occur in Italy. There is every
indication the present movement was
prepared deliberately and systemati-
cally.
