ceive them.
What am doing today" said the
Fascist premier, "is formal act OF
courtesy towards you for which do
not desire any special expression OF
gratitude.
For too many years ministerial
crises have been settled BY the cham
Der. by political raanoeuvres, but FOR
the, second time, the first was in May,
1915-the Italian nation has over
thrown the cabinet and given itself
a ministry outside Of, above, in spits
OF parliament.
It leave to the melancholy v'orshsp-
pers Of super-constitutionaiisrn ths
dissertations and complaints, but I
say that revolution has its rights.
would add that the whole world may
know that am here TO defend and 20
put into execution to its highest ca
pacity the revolution OF the black
shirts to introduce 1t as a force for
development and balance in the his
tory OF Italy"
The new premier demanded blanket
authority for a free hand in the exc
cution OF fiscal and bureaucratic
changes.
Though the number Of Fascist depu-
ties only reaches 81 out OF over 500,
the new chief OF the cabinet exhibit
ed no apoiogetic tones which was the
custom Of his predecessors who OPP
Grated with coalition forces.
To use his own word. ne simply
"exacted" a vote OF confidence.
