Italian Nation

ROME. Oct. 30" Within few
hours you II have not only ministry
but a government Benito Mussolino,
leader of the Fascist, shouted to the
crowds today from Quirinal.
He had Just emerged from a confer
emce with King Victor Emmanuel.
"Long live the King.
The crowd, surging below, sent back
n roar of cheers.
Italy had today bowed to the Fascis-
ii and Benito Mussolini busted himself
forming a cabinet
The demand of Mussolini, leader of
the Fascist, that complete control of
the government be handed over to his
organization was met by King Victor
Emmanuel when Mussoini was asked
to form ministry.
Back of Mussolini Is demand was his
army of 100000 adherents ready to act
if the government was not handed over
peaeably.
! The Fascist leader refused to accept
a compromise. His invitation to form
la ministry only came after he had re-
fused point blank to participate in any
cabinet headed by former Premier Sa-
! landra.
Mslssolini was expected in Rome to-
day. He has left Milan, where he has
been in conference with leaders of his
party. According to reliable informa-
tion the new premier stopped off at
Lake Garda to have an audience with
Gabrielle D'Annunzio, Italy's pOet-air-
man. This is taken to mean that the
hero of Fiume may become a power in
Italian politics.
The Fascist will rule Italy with the
consent of parliament, the majority of
whose members are Socialists and bit
terly opposed to the strong monarchis-
tie tendencies of Mussolni. 1t is be-
Heved that parliament will be dissolved.

that Mussolini will appeal to the coun-
try for support.

Dealing With Labor

BY Special Staff Correspondent

CHICAGO, Oct. 30.-Dissolutlon OF
the United States Railroad Labor
Board for its refusal TO accept the
principle of the living wage, was de
manded today by r. c. Greenley, presi-
dent of the United Association of Rail
way Employees of North Amerrra, IN
telegram to President Harding.
At the same time Greenley called a
meeting of officials of his organization
with heads of the American Federation
of Railway Employees and other ''out'
law unions for Wednesday to organ
ize a fight against the board S stand.
CHICAGO, Oct. 30.-Declaring that
the "living wage proposition of rail
road unions was Just but unpracti-
cal,' the railroad labor board today
had flatly rejected the demand of the
men that the "living wage be made
the basis for new wage scale.
A majority opinion stated that If
carried out, the theory would wreck
every railroad in the country and If
carried into other industries would
result in communistic ruin. y
The statement was the formal deci-
sion on the ruling issued 10 days ago
granting a two-cent an hour increase
in the minimum wage of maintenance
of way employees. The living wage as
defined by railroad union representa-
tives was one which would support 4
family of five. 1t was claimed that
the lowest living wage for common
labor should range from ~ to % cents
IN hour. Under the recent increase
the board granted "A wage scale to the
maintenance men ranging front % to
81 cents an hour.

the granting of a living wage would
bring the annual payroll up to $3.50.

YOUNG BLOOD IN
POWER IN ITALY
AS FACTA QUITS
Bv CAMILLO CIANFARRA
United Press Leased Wire

ROME, Oct. 30.-Assumption of the
premiership by Benito Mussolini, lead
er of the Fascist, will mark the end
of the regime of 20 years of statesmen
of the old school and is the advent of
young blood in Italian affairs.
For the past 20 years the Kingdom
of Victor Emmanuel has been governed
by men who have practically lost all
notions as to the meaning of dcmocra-
cy. Every cabinet made Il series of
concessions to the radical elements.
During the war all sorts of impossible
promises, from the free distribution of
land to enfranchiscment of the illiteratc
were made the Italians in the trenches.
Obviously, most of the promises
could not be kept which caused general
dissatisfaction throughout the country
and resulted in many Socialist victories
at the polls in 1919.
In 1920 the Socialists, having had
their first taste of power, occupied
many industrial plants throughout the
land.
This marked the turning point in the
situation and was the beginning of a
reaction on the part of the conserva'
tive elements which eliminated in the
occupation of Rome by the Fascist.
Strictly speaking, the present revo-
luton only means that the old govern
ing classes personified by Gioletti, Or
lando and Salandra, which in 20 years
created Leviathanic bureaucracy and
after the war squandered' billions by
costly concessions, have gone.
1t is expected that drastic measures
Will be taken by Mussoini to balance
the national budget and to cut out all
non-essential expenditures.
Unless all indications fail, the Fas-
ciSti, who are not bound by traditions,
obligations or party affiliation, will
endeavor to give the country sane,
economic government, including cab

GAME IS FARCE
Adding Machine Needed for
Score; Hudson's Play
Surprised
EkaX

The game between FL Centros League
team and Jean Hudson S Colored
Giants developed into farce at the
very outset. Livingston famed the
first three men to face him and then
the leapuers fell on McGowen, the
colored hurler and batted around, pro
ducing seven runs. The second inning
was repetition of the first, except
that the league team got eight runs
instead of seven.
Seeing the colorcd boys were abso-
lutely helpless before Livingston, even
though he was using nothing but II
straight ball, Tackett went into the
box and burlesqued Nick Altrock in his
pitching stunt. Even then it was nee
essary for the umpires to cheat IN
order to give the "GiantsN a chance.
The onl wright spot in the game was
the work of Jean Hudson. The old man
started at second base but it got to
hot for him so he removed to center
field. Here he surprised everybody,
including himself, by catching several
flies in classy style. At times 1T was
necessary to give Jean more than the
regulation number of strikes when he
came to bat, in order to get him ON
the bases so the fans could see him
steer the "Number SiXes' around the
base paths.
Several of the other colored players
injected little comedy into the doings
so that the fans who came out to sec
a ball game would get some return for
their money. As a ball game, it was
terrible, but for an afternoon s enter
tanment it was pretty good. The
score9 Nobody can honestly say what
the blame thing was.

Of Attorney Bert A. Herrington, pond

Mrs. Peggy Caffee was in difficulties
on the witness stand here today.
In the main, however, she strictly ad

defense were on minor details.
Realizing that the lawyer was en-
deavoring to involve her, yet only half
| eomprehending the purpose of his ques-
tions, Mrs. Caffee was hesitant and
several times waited for the clerk to
repeat the questions, before she at
tempted TO answer them.

pompous bearing, strobe about with a
heavy frown as he propounded to Mrs
Caffee various discrepancies he claim

Harrington then called attention to
her statement to the grand jury as

that the statements given at the trial
