Mussolini's Cloture,

Mussoiini continues to crack the
whip as the driver Of the Italian
government. Yesterday. when he
faced the chamber Of deputies on
the question Of support. following
his remarkable address Of Thursday,
he, with full knowledge Of the tendency
to diffuse debate and protracted argu.
ment. definitely announced that the
discussion would be limited. There
being eleven distinct political groups
In the chamber, time would be given
to one representing each. Eleven
speeches. no more! Could even Mus
solini check the torrent Of eloquence?
He did. Promptly upon the conclusion
Of the eleventh speech the premier
sprang to his feet and took command.
He spoke to the house, as he had
spoken the day before, in direct terms.
He did not come, he said. asking IA
vors, but he was demanding power.
Certain reforms had to be Instituted.
ard he called for a vote Of confidence.
He got it--S06 to 11s. He was by that
vote virtually made dictator of Italy.
He would probably have made himself
victor If he had not got the vote.
Mussolini makes no secret Of the
basis Of his confidence. He points to
the 100000 youths perfectly armed
and ready for anything" who recently
put through a revolution and named
him as their representative. They are
still ready. If the parliament does not
support him he will close parliament.
There Is no finesse in his method. He
is bluntly revolutionist. willing to
work with the established organization
as long as it will serve him.
Thus cloture was effective 1T Rome.
q cloture dictated by an individual.
who in effect said: Il know what you
are going to say and discount it all.
and I know what the vote will be
after you have said 1t; SO please cay it
quickly. one at a time. and when you
have finished I'll talk. and then we'll
20 through the motions Of voting, and
I will proceed, as I fully intend to re.
form Italy's administrative affairs
1t is rather refreshing to see such a
performance, and gratifying to friends
of Italy on the assumption that Mus
solini is a patriot with high ideals Of
government and the courage Of a su-
prerne conviction that communion
spells ruin for his people.

Mr.. Wilson Taking Notice.

Woodrow Wilson'S congratulations
to Gov. Edwards on the latter's cleo.
ton to the Senate:
take you by the, hand and congratu-
late you on the new honors that have
come to- you. Now we shall after .
while both be Washingtonians. and
(we can then colloque on the events,
old and new. to our hearts content.
Gov. Edwards is regarded as the
wettest Of the vets. He defeated Sena.
tor Frelinghuysen on the prohibition
issue. He is expected to lead the move
ment in the next Senate for the modi-
fication Of the Volstead act. He would
probably be willing to lead a move
ment for its repeal. He Is opposed to
the whole prohibition proposition.
Mr.. Wilson when President vetoed
the Volstead act. and in doing 50 an.
tagonised many members of his party.
Democratic votes he,r to pass the
measure over his veto. Is it not likely,
therefore, that he favors the move.
ment for the modification Of the act
he vetoed? And h It not likely that he
will colloque with his Jersey friend
when the latter calls about the move
ment, and thus, indirectly, give his
support to It?
Mr.. Wilson is taking notice. Like
other democratic leaders he has been
greatly heartened by the congressional
elections. He thinks his party Is COM
ing back. and he expects 1t to arrive
in 1924. AS a resident Of Washington
he will be able to colloque with others
besides Senator Edwards, and we shall
probably see him improve his oppor-
tunity. And as he is skilled in politics,
those members Of his party with whom
he colloaues-of course. they will all
be Wilsonites-should benefit by his
counsels in the preliminary work of
the next national campaign.
