MUSSOLINI DOCS
1T In FACE OF
MASS PROTEST
Deserts Former Friends
to Save Self
tspeoIaI to The palIy worksrl

ROME, Nov. 2S.-Every day is
bringing increasing evidence that the
opposition is making great inroads into
the strength Of Premier Mussolini and
his fascist government of Italy. The
exposure by a leading home paper,
yesterday showing that Gen. Balbo,
commander in chief Of the fascist
black shirts and one of Mussolini's
right hand men, had ordered oppon-
ents beaten up and had interfered
with police and judges in prosecuting
offenders forced his resignation today
Systematic Torture of Communists.
It was shown that Gen. Balbo wrote
a letter to the newspaper editor Fer
rera on Aug. 81, 1923, instructing fas-
cists to force Communists acquitted
Of murder to leave town and in case
of refusal to beat them, without ex.
cess, but persistently, until the make
up their minds to go. You can show
this letter to the project, saying
have SUFFICIENT reasons to justify my
conduct"
The letter adds:
1.-THE police will do well in arrest
ing them once weekly. The project
must make the kings prosecutor UNI
derstand that for such beatings there
shall be no prosecutions or trials"
Gen. Balbo admitted writing the let
ter.
It is evident that Mussolini, de-
spite the fact that the strength of his
organization is being impaired, is
afraid to disregard mass protest and
defend his former aids. Five other
leading chiefs we're expelled with Gen.
Balbo.
The opposition is presenting long
list OF other cases and is threatening
further exposure, while Mussolinis
popularity with the fascist is endan-
gered by his action in deserving even
his personal friends.

THE Egyptians were just as helpless

the Washington government demand

then their uniforms are more brilliant

American capitalists and the empire
wants to uphold its dignity. But a
time will come and that shortly when
the exploited masses Of Persia and
Egypt will no longer pay tributes to
the capitalist powers.
EVEN when the workers and peas
