FASC|STI DEMANDS
 DEATH PENALTIES
Would Execute Principals in Former Assaults on MuSSolini

Rome, Nov. LP - "Nothing short of death to all enemies of Benito Mussolini will satisfy us," Is the official edict of the fascist party. enunciated by its secretary general, Singer Turati. A demand Is to be made of the council of the fascist party for putting to death not only future assailants Of the premier but of the three men, Zaniboni, Capello and Lucetti, now under arrest in connection with past plots to assassinate il duce.
 Signor Turati thundered the fas- cist party's demand for the death of Mussolini's enemies to a crowd estimated at 50.OO0 under Musso- lini's window in Colonna square last night. Black shirts in process sion in every city and town in Italy repeated it, and it was print cd in large black type upon the front pages of the newspapers.
 "Yes, death. Hang all of them" was shouted back at Turati by the listening multitude.
 Not only those who lift their hand against our duce." Turati con- tinued. but also every single per- son who indirectly or directly acts as an instigator or accomplice must meet a similar fate - not only those who dare endanger

 Strand of Hair Clue
 Among the discoveries, an- nounced by Reyes were eight long strands of auburn hair and a moth CT of pearl pendant, which. the prosecution says was purchased by Mrs. McPherson during her tour of Palestine last spring.
 The hair will be turned over to a chemist for microscopic analysis, the prosecutor said. A strand of red hair, found inside of a boudoir cap when the Ormiston trunk was first opened in New York, is also in Reyes possession.
 The purchase of two pairs of ex- pcnsive shoes found in the trunk was traced to an exclusive shop whihc Mrs. McPherson is known 10 have frequently patronized. The sizes are virtually the same as those worn by the evangelist, Reyes investigators were informed.
 Reyes yesterday filed the prose- cution's brief in the evangelist S case in municipal court. Mrs. Me Emerson, her mother, Mrs. Minnie Kennedy, Ormiston and others are charged with conspiracy to manu- facture evidence" in support of a

 Signor Turat discarded the pos sibility of the attacks upon the premier having been isolated acts of individuals. Mussolini must be protected, despite himself. Fascists were willing to obey him, but will ing only if his decision "does not offend the nations right to jus tice. If It meant renouncing fas- cismo's desire for justice, i've on that day will be uncertain in choos- ing between rugged, painful, dan- gerous. useless discipline and our indiscipline Of passion, faith and ardor."
 Continuing, Signor Turau said the responsibility for the attacks upon Mussolini existed at home and abroad and that those forming the ring must be destroyed ruthlessly. For those responsible fascismo would accept no other sentence than death. He said that time had come when traitors must be sought even in the ranks of fascismo, add ing: "The time has come for an in- spection of the virtues of every one of us.'
 The meeting of the grand council of the fascists which will consider the demands of Turati and the black shirts in general, will be held next Friday. Mussolini. was still at his home in Torli last night and there- fore did not hear the speech of Turati.
 Although the authorities believe that Anteo Zamboni, the youth who on Sunday attempted to assassinate Mussolini and was killed by black shirts was the agent of anti-fascists, no proof of this has been adduced. Possible accomplices are being searched for.
 The sixth narrow escape of the premier from death is increasing the belief among the people of his h. vulnera bility. Even Pope Plus is of the opinion that II Duce bears charmed life. This Is new sign that Mussolini has Gods full pro- tection," the Pontiff said in com- menting on his escape from the as- sassin's bullet in Bologna.
