ROME. Nov. 16 (By The Associated
Press) ).--Benito Mussolini, in dra-
matte first appearance before Parlia-
.ment as Premier, to-day announced his
foreign and internal policies and
warned his adversaries the Fascist
government had come to stay. He az
firmed it's strength to enforce law and
order against one and all, even against
an illegal coup by his own followers,
and demanded full powers and full re-
sponsibilities.
The Fascist leader proclaimed poll
icy Of action, not words. He himself
set an example, for he spoke for only
half an hour and was frequently ap-
plauded and cheered.
The Socialists and Communists, mum
bering 11s, who have greeted every
succeeding government with violent
and noisy demonstrations of opposi.
tion, sat in the Chamber to-day silent
and subdued. Old leaders, like Giolitti,
Orlando, Salandra, Facta and Bonomi,
the first of whom presided over the
destinies Of Italy when the present
Premier was still an infant, and all
OF whom have been prominent leaders
in ltaly's political life, saw their power
Wrested from them. They were rele-
gated to second place without utter
ing single objection, and some of them
were among the hundreds who congrat-
uiated Mussolini as he concluded.
Voice Rings Over Building
The Premier spoke in his usual clear.
,inclslve tones at first while explaining
his program. His voice was low. bur
was heard plainly throughout the
Seml-clrc!e. Later, when warning the
Deputies that the House would be dis.

it they refused confidence IN his gov
ernment, the sharp ring of his Voice
| clarioned to all hooks and corners ot
the huge building,
The only attempt ai interruption
was made. by Deputy Modigliani, So
ciailst, who, when Mussolini threat.
ened dissolution, shouted somewt1a,
| timidlly: Long live the Parliament. :
The leaders Of the Fascist nereIy
glared at him, while she Right and
Center sections cheered.
!hat Mussolini intends to reach q
quick vote was indicated when he re-
fused TO permit the afty-fve orators
inscribed on the lists as intending "a

tion, TO take the floor. There are MANY
who think the Premier will force The
Chamoer TO vote as soon as the Min
! lister of Treasury, Professor Taneor-a
has developed the details Of the fiscal
and bureaucratic reforms on the Fas-
cist program.
Greeted With Cheers
The Premier's entrance to the
crowded chamber was hailed witt
cheers. The points Of his speech
meeting with special approval were his
declaration that he did not need ma.
lority in Parliament, his tribute to the
King, his reference to the army and
lnsistence upon order and tranquillity
in the country.
The Premier then went to the Sen.
ate and delivered the same speech, be.
ing greeted with no less enthusiasm
than was exhibited in the chamber
Soon afte1ward he returned to the
chamber, where speeches were made by
deputies representing five groups, none
of whom, however, attacked the gov.
crnment openly, although Deputy Ro
sadi, Democrat, taunted Mussolini
saying:
"I am speaking in behalf of those
deputies condemned to two days OF
life." Mussolini sat quietly through
out the speeches EXCEPT when the
Socialists challenged q statement BY
the Fascist Deputy Terzagri that ths
Premier had formed coalition cabinet
"By letting in Catholics alonew tbs
Socialists shouted. To which Musso
,ini retorted: "You have expressed {
desire to come in also"
Deputy's Silence Wins
Deputy Murgia, needing Mussolini's
| request that the speeches be few ano
short, simply handed in typewr.tter
copy of his proposed oration without
delivering il, saying: "Do with i as
you see ft" He was congratulated b.
| the Premier and applauded by the
| Chamber.
| The Chamber then adjourned.
| When DR.. Musso,ini began his ad'
dress in the Senate he said the first
portion Of his speech in the Chamber
| Of Deputies was not applicable TO the
| Senate, to which he was not required
! to use the same harsh language.
! "For several ears" Mussolini added
