OUTLOOK GRAVE
Cabinet Agrees Govern
ment Must Draw Lines
On Workers Demands.

Rome, March 2s.-The meeting OF
the cabinet yesterday was devoted
largely to an analysis of the internal
situation which was described as
unusually grave.
After hearing statements by lead
ing business men and land owners,
the cabinet members agreed the gov
eminent has done all it can for Ia
Dor and that the time has come to
draw a line against what were de-
scribed as the absurd demands" of
the workers.
The government. 1t was agreed.
must restore order and popular dis
cipline.
In the Pc Valley the situation was
discussed as especially grave. Farm
laborers there have been on strike
for weeks, and red organisations
were reported in control Of sew
ertl areas. Red organizations have
invaded estates after endeavoring to
impose on land owners contracts
which the proprietors said would
regulate even the number Of labor
ers employed to each acre of cult
waited land.
The daylight-saving law also has
caused the government endless en-
barrassment
