force and / continued campaign Of
suppression and confiscation Of the
opposition press he was attempting
ito clear the situation in forty
eight hours" as he promised, using
the identical methods which swept
Fascism into power in 1922.
To his friends, to the fascist press
and to independent newspapers his
action was the only alternative OF
q. great leader who had done his
best to conciliate his enemies and
had met with continued rancor.
To his enemies, the partial mobil-
ization of the black shirts, and the
ruthless confiscation of opposition
newspapers, were a final dramatic
gesture of q leader, whose popular.
ity was waning.
Loss of Leaders Felt.
There was little doubt that the
position of the Facist administration
was considerably weakened and. the
demonstration of power somewhat,
bedimmed by the designations or
Gino Sarrochi, minister OF public
works, and Senator Casati, minister
of education who, with the ministers
of war and the navy, were the sole
remaining members OF the cabinet
who were not Fascists.
But the Fascist Premier met this
with immediate appointment of two
other Liberal deputies to the cabinet.
The secession from the black shirt
party of former Premier Salandra
also came at an inopportune time
for Mussolini.
To offset these adverse turns,
however, Mussolini today had the
delirious approval Of the Fascist
newspapers, who pleaded with him
to continue the renewal of force
against the administrations enemies
and consider the steps taken so far
as only the preliminaries in the
restoration of tranquility to Italy"
Mussolini practically has placed
Italy on a basis Of modified martial
law, with the strictest orders for
suppression of anti Fascist organi.
cations, special militia guarding the
railway stations and the Fascist pre-
fects authorized to mobilize the
black shirts militia.
The government has ordered the
dissolution of the Italia Liberia AS
ISOLATION, composed of former SOL
diers who are opposed to Fascism.

Patrick said the United states IS
deficient in Kliers, planes, organi-

branches Of the. air services and
recommended reorganization OF the
army air service into an air corps
apart from the War Department,
but under the Secretary Of War,
and enlargement Of this arm Of
national defense. He said the uni
ficAtion Of all air services for ma
ticna1 defense might be the ulti-
mate solution, but It should not be
ordered without investigation. De
fense Of the United States coasts

There should be 8 separate and

make fair aIIotments and 20 lessen

duplicated efforts, he said, lies IN
coast defense and difficulties Of
Y1ar4ging duty areas Of land and sea
forces.
There must be an aircraft build
ing program. New planes win be
needed next year, and they VIII cost
more than rebuilt planes now in
general use. Airplane n1anufac.
turers should be encouraged In con.
struction, and q program would
prove Of great help besides reducing
costs Of planes.
