ITALY is REORGANIZING
HER GREAT POLICE FORCE
Government Under Premier Mussolini
is Making Several Important
Changes.
Changes.

Rome, Feb. l6.-The whole of the
Italian police service is being reor-
ganized under the government of
Premier Mussolini. The Royal Carab-
ineers will remain as the principal
police force of Italy, while the Royal
Guards will be abolished and their
personnel absorbed into the carabin-
GERS. The number of detectives on the,
Italian police force will be increased
from 5000 to 10000.
The Royal Carabineers have been
the backbone of the. Italian police
force for over a century. Their his
tory is filled with glorious deeds con-
nected with the rise and unity of all
the separated Italian states. They are
noted for their picturesque appear
ance, and present a colorful contrast
to all the other police of Europe.
Their tunics resemble the coat of an
evening dress suit with the tails bor-
dered in deep red. Across the chest
several wide strands of white leather
cross each other, and are designed to
carry their knapsacks. Their head
gear consists of large felt hat pc
culiarly shaped and resembling the
hat usually worn by Napoleon.
While the Royal Guards, which or
ganization was instituted by former
Premier Nitti, will be abolished, not
