MUSS0LINI TO
PUT DOWN ALL
OPPOSITION
Premier Plans 10 Use More
Drastic Means to Protect
Fascist Regime

Rome, Nov. 5.--tP)-B Bcnito Musso-
hni today had his plans ready for
carrying out program arranged
with the purpose Of putting down
vigorously all opposition to himself
and the fascist regime.
The old Mosaic law. IAN eye for an
eye; u tooth for TOOTH" formed the
basis Of the idea the premier has OF
sweeping aside all. intransigcnts.
Mussolini's scheme to introduce
more drastic means Of protecting the
fascist regime was presented by the
premier personally this morning at
secret sessions of the cabinet and
the national fascist dircctOrOtc.
Three proposed measures provide:
That the recently approved death
penalty for attempts against the life
Of the premier or members Of the
royal family be made retroactive;
reorganization Of Shc police system.
and authorizing sweeping revision Of
the membership Of the fascist party.
with the object Of wedding out
suspected members.
To Create Special Court
II is understood that the retroac-
tive death penalty law, to be drafted
by Signor Rocco. will create IA special
branch court Of cessation for the
judgment Of such cases, instead Of
leaving them to the ordinary jury
courts.
Already the movement to put down
opposition has been put into effect.
A special political squad has been
formed ut Padua to punish anti-fas
cists. At Parma. a list Of enemies
Of the regime has been drawn up and
1t is said there will be summary ac-
tion in the case of plotters..
A letter discovered in Bologna by
the authorities is said to have con-
tanned evidence that opponents Of the
regime purpose to commit terroristic
acts, including attempts on the life
of Mussolini, in the hope that sue
cess would be met with or that the
fascists would be frightened into
lenieney.

WATER RECEDES IN Mine SHAFT AND
CHANCES OF CLEARING FLOODED PIT
TO RECOVER BODIES MORE FAVORABLE
Task Still Remains Difficult
One, However, as Shaft
Has Been Stripped of All
Bracings BY Rush of Wa
ter and Sand-MOnths Nav
Be Required

Ishpeming, Mich, Nov. 5.--IN-
The honeycombed workings OF q num-
Der Of abandoned ifon mines today
were lending = helping hand to the
men engaged in the difficult work Of
recovering the bodies Of the miners
entrapped In the cave-in 1t the
Barnes -Hecker mine here Wednes-
day.
The seeming impossibility Of the
task Of ever clearing the flooded pit
took on more encouraging aspect
late last night when the water which
filled the shaft began receding of it's
own accord. Mine engineers express
ed the opinion that the water had
broken through to underground
caverns Of adjacent worked out iron
mines.
Shortly after midnight the waters
in the main shaft had dropped to 400
feet from the surface and were still
reeeding. The entire distance is
honeycombed with these huge
eaverns and officials are hopful that
the waters may be drawn off by this
method in such quantities as to at
least clear the first level, where it
Is believed many Of the A. bodies un-
accounted for may be found.
Task Remains Difficult
But even with this unforeseen aid,
the task Of recovery remains most
difficult one. As the water rcceded
it was revealed that the main shaft
had been stripped of all its bracings
by the rush Of water and sand and
was partially filled with timber and
other wreckage.
\ New brscing apparatus must be
constructed to prevent slides and a
new elevator installed before the men
can penetrate to the first level.
Soundings have revealed this level is
clogged with sand and If an entry is
made into it, the workers must dig
out any bodies that may be buried
there.
This will consume weeks or months,
officials of the mine fear, but never
theless, they are going ahead with
the work and have announced their
determination to bring to the surface
for proper burial the bodies Of the
victims.
