Especial 70 The paIIx worksr,


ROME, Jan. 15.-The work
men and peasants, led by the
Communists, will take over the
power in Italy the moment Fas-
cism falls, Comrade Grieco,
Communist member of the
chamber of deputies, said in a
revolutionary speech before the
chamber yesterday.
Deputy Grieco's speech, in
which he hurled the defiance of
the proletariat at the fascist,
was markedly many interrupt
tons from Mussolini and the
president of the chamber Caser-
tano.
The nineteen Communist deputies
entered the chamber from the ex
treme left. Rich ladies in the CALLER.
les looked at them as if they were
strange animals. Comrade GRECO be
ginning his speech declared, 1.-THE
other opposition groups oppose the
fascist because they say the fascist
are common criminals. We Commun
lists oppose them and fight them be
cause they are the opponents Of the
bourgeoisie. The Communists will
crush the bourgeoisie with the prole
tartan revolution"
When Comrade GRECO attacked the
Dawes plan, and urged the German
lproletarian to tear the Dawes plan to
pieces, President Casertano broke in
You must speak on the electoral law
Don't talk of foreign countries and
foreign policies" Comrade GRECO
however, retorted, 81 am entitled to
say whatever please and reviewed
the conditions OF the workers thruout
the world, explaining that interna
tional capitalism is going thru crisis
leading to world dictatorship BY
the proIetariat.
1.-THE Matteoti trial will not be held
lby the tribunals Of this prostituted
justice, but by the workers and peas
ants. The present situnation seems
stable, but the fascist are keeping
down the workers by using terror and
violence. Fascism has not the cour
age to continue its revolution. The
presentation of the electoral law by
Mussolini shows that fascism is TAX
ing recourse to the lowest methods
Of bourgeois parliamentarism. Now
that the proletarian revolution i'm
Ponds, the fascist and the opposition
will unite against the Communists in
a last attempt to save the bourgeois
state.
"The use of force by Mussolini
showed his weakness, which is shared
by the opposition, for both need the
proletariat, and they are following us
toward the Communist revolution"
Comrade GRECO declared that Mus
solini's electoral bill was an iniquit
Gus, impudent attempt to abolish uni
versal suffrage by giving the bour
geoisie plural voting power. I'VE are
glad to have the general elections,
he said, because they offer us the
possibility for the propagation of our
ideas among the masses"
The crisis in the affairs Of the fas
cisti has grown suddenly worse. Mus
solini has asked King Victor Emanuel
to abolish the Italian parliament, and
the king has refused. Mussolini has
disarmed the entire nation wherever
no could find arms on the workers
Mussolini has provided his militia with
the best of guns and ammunition
and has equipped $4,000 irregu
lar troops. in preparation for the Inn
pending revolution.
All except fascist newspapers have
been suppressed while linotype ma,
chimes and presses have been smashed
and newspaper buildings burned. So.
cial and intellectual clubs have been
closed.
Tho Italian proletariat is fighting
the fascist machine desperately.
