CRISIS IN ITALY
FORCES CIOLITTl
TOASK ELECTION
Expected Premier. Will
Ask for Dissolution of
Parliament.
tsp.oi.l c.sl. to tn. H.r.ld.)

ROME, March 21.-The Italian
government has been forced to go
before the people in a general cleo
tion, II was indicated today.
II was stated that Premier Gio-
litti will call for dissolution OF
parliament. asking for an election
the last week in May. The COM
plications which have led up to the
expected action included:
Labor Crisis Pends.
The economic situation.
The labor situation with the
threat of Bolshevism.
The Italian failure to WELD a
stronger influence in recent allied
negotiations.
Charges that the government has
supported the "facisti' in attacks
on Bolshevists and other radicals.
The bread and other tax bills
putting heavy burdens on the con-
sumer.
Radicals Delegated.
Radical members of parliament
were delighted at the prospect OF
an election. With promises that
they can right the economic situa-
tion by the application of socialistic
principles they expected to gain in
strength when new deputies are
elected, They saw also a prospect
that the bars would be let down
still further to the Russian Boil
sheviki.
The Italian crisis has been re-
garded as almost certain to occur.
In surrounding countries it was be-
lieved that the high cost of living
and other difficulties could not be
staved off much longer by Premier
GIolittfs compromises, such as the
labor council bill and his proposals
for tightening taxation. Violence
by the fasciti and Socialists was re-
garded as a threat in deciding on
dissolving parliament.

Flags on Caskets of u. S.
Dead May Be Kept by Kin

HOBOKEN, N. j., March 21.-The
United States flag which covers the
casket of each soldier returned from
France for burial in his native land
may be kept by his parents or rela-
tives or turned over to any post
of the American Legion, according
to a ruling made by the Graves
Registration Service, which has so
organized the transportation of the
bodies. from the ship to the homes
of relatives that every honor will
be paid to the dead and the proper
difference exercised toward the
wishes of the family.
Because the government provides
a flag which covers each casket,
the Graves Registration ofncials
have informed legion national head
quarters that the purchase OF such
a flag by legion posts is an un-
necessary expense.

Prescription to his departure for
Berlin, last night. Senator France of
Maryland, accused DR.. E. w. Ryan.

Thereupon DR.. Rayn expressed his
opinion of the senator's credence in
what DIR. Ryan termed Bolshevik re-
ports and of the senator's dealings
with the Bolsheviki.
When questioned today concerning
the matter DR.. Ryan said: THE
charge is ridiculous. The senator must
have been raving.'
American official representatives
here also said today that the accusa-
ton was without basis in fact.
The argumen; began in the senator's
room in the hotel and continued during
the trip to the railway station. 1t
was heard in part by several persons
who accompanied the senator.
Mr. France is SAID to have declared
he would renew the charge in the
senate.
1t is understood Senator France in
vited DR.. Ryan to his room and alb
ruptly made his accusation and added
that the Bolshevik foreign office had
promised to furnish him proof of the
charge.
DR. Ryan has been engaged in Red
Cross and other relief work in Europe
since early in the war. His homo is In
Scranton, Pa.
In 1920 he was placed at the head
OF the Red Cross commission In Es-
