ITALY STARTS BACK
NORMALLY UNDER
fascist LEADER
New Government Will Present
Case to People If Legis-
lature Balks.

Rome, Nov. 1.-fBy The Associated
Press. )-vittorio Rolandi Ricci, italian
ambassador, at Washington, has pre-
scented his resignation, like his col
leagues, Count Sforza, ambassador at
Paris, and Senator F~rassati, ambassa-
dor at >Berlin, wishing to leave Pre-
mier Mussolini free to choose his own
trusted men for such important posts.
Italy has started on the road back
to normally after a most exhilarating
week that saw the younger generation
rise to poyer and in a great triumph
overthrow the older politicians.
Tens of thousands of the vigorous
young fascist and their enthusiastic
admirers who accompanied them here
from all over the land. were on the
way back to their homes Wednesday.
Yesterday theirs was the thrill of {
real Roman triumph in which a mil
lion people made the streets ring with
plaudits for king and country after DIR.
Benito Mussolini and his new fascist
ministry had taken their oaths before
the sovereign. As soon as this formal
ceremony had ended, the black-spirlted
boys and men who brought about the
rise of Mussolini marched as vlctors
through the ancient streets OF the city,
crowded with a vast c%oneourse that for
the day doubled the population OF
Rome.
A Day of Triumph
Wednesday the flush of triumph
gave way to the drab business of toll,
individual and national. DR.. Musso-
lini was on the job early. and he said
he was going to see to it that every
body else engaged in the business OF
main that he was going to rule with
an iron hand that Italy might be soon
or restored to a better economic basis
and a more powerful place in interna-
tional affairs. For the moment at
least, communism has no part in the
life of Italy. Til onslaught of the fas-
cisti has rendered all radicalism a
n~aralyzing blow. Carrying their battle
into the labor. temples and the meet
irg places of their antagonists. the
militant ~nationalists have seized the
records and rosters and burned them.
Politics IL the chief topic in Italy,
and as to what the fortune of the
new cabinet will be when it goes before
the chamber of deputies. One thing
il certain. If Mussolini's government
docs not receive a majority in the
chamber he will have parliament dis
. solved and then the fascist will take
their cause to the country. Musso-
. I'M made this clear last Monday. when
he built a new cabinet at the request
Of the king.
To Reopen Bourse
Minister Of industry Rossi in agree
ment with the minister Of the treas
nrv. has taken steps for the immediate
rnopcning Of the bourse. it wal semi
officially announced Wednesday.
Premier Mussolini's letter to Conn
Sforza, ambassador to France, read:
II feel bound to regard as scarcely
friendly and very ill-timed action your
decision to resign before you have Of
ficial knowledge Of the direction !

policy. which / shall lay before the
chamber and which will in any case
. not be simply the sum total Of senti-
meDts. n you mistakenly suppose.
Il therefore formally invite you to
remain at your post and not embar-
rass a government which presents IT,,
Hottest expression Of the national
conscience.
II shall be glad of a reply 10 my
telegram. reserving to myself a further
ecision in youcr aes'.'hra~ -auuoanuo
