FASCIST RULE IN ITALY is
SHOWN VICTIM OF INTERNAL STRIFE

to an end, Farlnacel was superfiuous
and was removed.
Altho the censorship prevents any
discussion and any explanation of this
matter, the Farinacci affair is causing
the government much worry. There
have been conflicts between fascists in
various Italian towns, in Turin, in
Genoa and other places. Thus, in Sa-
vona, the opposition succeeded in
taking possession Of the town hall, the
sub-prefecture and the premises of the
fascist party and the fascist trade I'M
ions. The plot was suppressed in time
by the police, the earabinieri and the
militia. r-s5nfyf .s
In Naples also, there were serious
encounters between the official fascists
and those of the opposition in conse-
quence of the death of Captain Pado-
vani who had been excluded from the
party and who died under peculiar
circumstances. It is further a telling
fact that Farinacci was called upon by
the project OF Milan to leave without
delay that town, in which he had come
together with his friends. In Trieste
also there were a number Of sharp
conflicts between the public forces and
fascists, which even led to shots being
fired in the streets of the town.
Fascists Grab Funds.
The chief scandal, however, was
caused by the fascist press and by the
authorities, in connection with the col
lapse Of the Agrarian Bank of Parma.
In this collapse, some of Farinacci's
friends from Cremona, town in the
neighborhood of Parma, were involved.
The responsible director Of the bank
was Count Lusignani, one of the most
famous businessmen, who had only re-
Gently declared himself a fascist and
had understood how to procure the
friendship and protection of Farinacci
in spite of the most violent opposition
of a section of the fascists of Parma.
Merely an Incident.
The breakdown OF. the bank in itself

merely a case of several millions
which were squandered by few inan-
ciers and political businessmen, that
is to say of an event, which is by no
means anything peculiar under the
fascist regime. Farinacci's opponents
however seized the opportunity and
embarked on violent campaign of
agitation. Matters were brought to
light which otherwise might have been
left in the dark Among other things,
Farinacct's friends were accused of
having emhezzled money Of chart.
table institution in Cremona, and Fart.
nacci himself was accused Of having
pocketed money for his paper 81 re-
gime fascist" (The Fascist Rule.) The
methods were revealed by which he
extorted subscriptions and assign.
ments of money from the agrarians of
Cremona according to the amount of
their possessions. Altho Farinacci's
opponents work on the same lines, all
this was dragged into the light Of day
in order to injure Farinacci The
money affairs of a certain Max Bondi
and a certain Cupini are connected
with this matter; the financial col
lapse of the latter was a breakdown in
grand style, in which Deputy Balbo,
one Of Farinacci's intimate friends,
played a disgraceful part.
Struggle Developed.
At the same time another struggle
developed between the leaders of the
fascist corporations (trade unions)
and the leaders OF the association for
! industry and agriculture. The new
trade union law and still more its
regulations, make the unions absolute.
ly dependent on the political author
tiles and rob them OF all autonomy
and all freedom Of action, whilst In
reality, the associations of employers
retain the greatest freedom of action.
The leaders of the corporations tried
TO offer resistance, either to satisfy
the masses to some extent or TO pacify
their discomfort or to do Justice TO
their natural desire to defend their
own power. Consequently there were
some lively discussions in the bosom
of the great council; Deputy Rossoni,
general secretary Of the corporations,
talked In threatening language, whilst
In private conversation he did not
even hesitate to make some very cut
ting remarks about the Duce and some
of his chief collaborators. Another
leader OF the fascist unions even dared

to speak of general strike! 1t is a
matter Of course that the landowners
and the industrialists met with sue
cess all along the line.
Points of Dlssenslon.
The last great point Of dissension
was the question as to whether the
(proletarian) tenant farmers should
belong to the association of the land
owners or of the agricultural workers.
In reality, a political problem is in this
case concealed under the mantle on /
legal problem, because, as a matter
Of fact, the agrarians wish to prevent
any alliance between the tenant farm
ers and the agricultural workers by
forcing the former into the organiza-
tons in which they themselves are Of
course masters. Article 5 of the trade
union regulations had already decided
the question according to the Will Of
the landowners. The fascist trade
unionists succeeded in bringing the
matter up again for discussion. 1t Is
however very doubtful whether they
will attain their end. &
Increasing Discomfort.
The struggles to which we have re-
ferred are in reality extremely i'm.
portant, because they are symptoms
.of rapidly increasing discomfort
among the masses of the petty bourge-
oisie with the oligarchic and pluto
cratic rulers who are now completely
and openly in control Of the govern.
ment and of fascism. They are symp-
toms of deep clefts between the centre
and the periphery.
The central power is today, in the
hands of the financiers and is repres.
ented in politics by an oligarchy con-
sisting of former nationalists who
have gone over to fascism and have
become its spiritual masters and lead
ers. The government is under the
domination of the triumvirate FEEDER
zoni, Rocco and Volpi. The two first
were originally nationalist, protagon-
lists of an absolute regime, the legiti-
mate power of which is not traced

class movement and above all the in
terests of the miners severely.
THE plenum Of the central council
wishes to place the fact on record
that thru this attitude the British dele
cation must take the responsibility
for any lack OF sufficient support for
the miners.
The plenum is of the opinion that
the demand which the British dele
gates placed before the Soviet dele
gates calling for the withdrawal of the
declaration of the central council of
the Soviet labour unions in connec-
ton with the British general strike is
more than unfounded.
The central council sees no reason
to alter its analysis of the British
events and the role played by the
general council and its present lead
ers in it. Particularly as not only
the history Of the strike, but also the
attitude Of the British delegation at
the Paris conference fully corrobo-
rates the basic contentious of this dec
laration.
THE plenum wishes to place the fact
L on record that the refusal of the
British delegation to discuss the ques-
ton of support for the British miners
and it's covering of this refusal by the
demand for the withdrawal of the dec
laration of the central council of So
Wet labor unions is in fact step to-
wards the breaking up of the Anglo
Russian committee and an attempt to
make the international campaign of
assistance for the British miners i'm
possible.
Altho the working masses of Great
Britain and other countries are
closing in more and more round the
banner of unity, altho the possibilities
of activity for the Anglo-Russian COM
mittee are becoming ever greater and
altho the working masses are regard
ing the Anglo Russian committee with
ever more sympathy, nevertheless the
leaders of the British, trade unions
have taken the responsibility for the
first step towards breaking up the
committee.
THE plenum declares that the re-
sponsibility for this step rests
absolutely and completely on TIE
shoulders of the British delegation n
the Anglo-Russian committee.
The plenum is of the opinion that it
is the duty Of the Soviet labor unions
despite the attitude OF the British
delegation to prosecute the idea Of the
unity of the trade union movement
with all the means at its disposal For
the Soviet labor unions the Anglo
Russian committee is not a block OF
leaders, but the embodiment of the
friendship and solidarity between the
working masses of Great Britain and
the Soviet Union.
THEREFORE, the central council Of
the Soviet Labor unions in the con-
viction that the maintenance of the
Anglo-Russian committee is necessary
in the interests of the. international
proletariat, will continue to demand
from the Anglo-Russian committee an

Economic Condition WORSE
The politics in this affair are Of
necessity politics Of great oppression
and of ever increasing exploitation OF
the masses. The economic position Is
getting worse in spite OF all fascist
reconstruction" The trade balance
shows an alarmingly increasing def
cit, the Ira continues to fall In the
last two months, It has fallen far more
than ten points and. as compared with
the pre-war Ira, it is not worth more
than IS paper or II gold centesinni. In
order to relieve this condition and 10
keep exports going, there is nothing
to be done but to reduce the cost OF
production by cutting down wages.
and that at a moment when the Italian
people are already almost faced by
starvation.
OF course these matters do not only
affect the masses Of workers and
peasants; directly or indirectly, the
small property owners the merchants,
indeed innumerable members OF the
petty bourgeoisie are hit by the re.
duction Of incomes. the increase OF the
prices OF food. the increased burden
OF taxation, etc. They are beginning
to recognize that the enthusiasm, with
which they greeted the fascist cause,
was devoted to lost cause. The gov
eminent, however. continues it's policy

councils and the replacement OF them

discomfort OF these circles Is expressed

A FTER hearing the report upon the
"A conference of the Anglo-Russian
committee in Paris and upon the
work of the delegation of the Central
Council of Soviet Labor Unions, the
plenum of the Central Council of So
Wet Labor Unions ratifies the actions
of the delegation during the confer
ence.
The plenum pointed out that the
British delegation to the Paris con-
ference took up an attitude contrary
to the interests of the broad masses
of the British miners. The chief ques-
ton is that of supporting the heroic
struggle of the British miners. The
striking miners, their wives and chill
dren, are suffering the greatest need
and privations. All the forces of the
bourgeoisie-the government, the
mine owners, the police, strikebreak-
ers, and espionage organizations-ar
directed against the miners.
THE hypocritical friends" are at
tempting to cripple the will to
struggle of the miners and to spread
defeatism in their ranks in order to
force them to surrender. The miners
are in great need and it the duty of
every honest supporter Of the work
er's cause to regard the support of the
miners as the chief task.
1t is for this reason that the cen
trail council took the initiative in call
ing together the Anglo-Russian com
mittee and proposed the question of
support for the British miners as the
one and only point on the agenda, a
support which would oppose the inso-
lent attacks of capitalism not only in
words but also in deed.
THE Soviet Labor Unions have done
1 everything within their power to
this end. They considered it neces-
sary to increase the amount Of sup
port, and to enlarge the campaign to
include the whole international pro-
letariat. "A friend in need is friend
indeed"
But altho the privations of the min
ers have become very great, and the
attacks of the bourgeoisie have be-
come particularly sharp, the
British delegation refused to dis
cuss the question Of supporting the
miners.
The central council regards this at
titude as wrong both in substance and
in form. rs
FORMALLY, this attitude is wrong
because the answering telegram of
the general council Of the British
Trade Union Congress accepting the
offer of conference made no protest
against the agenda proposed by the
Soviet labor unions which contained
only one point, the question of sup
porting the miners.
In substance this attitude of the
British delegation is the continuation
of that policy of capitulation and sa-
botage pursued by the leaders of the
general council during the general
strike which damaged the working

/ of the Soviet Labor Unions on
Of the Soviet delegation:
active support of the workers against
the capitalists, support not in words
but in deeds. This is the only hon
est working class policy.
The plenum is of the opinion that it
is the duty of the iAnglo-Russian COM
mittee to use all the means of it's
power to support the miners. The
plenum considers refusal Of this
support to be tantamount to an in
direct support Of the capitalists and
all class enemies of the proletariat.
THE plenum stresses the necessity
1 for a complete freedom of mutual
criticism inside the Anglo-Russian
committee. The central council of So
Wet labor unions as an organization
Of the victorious proletariat of the
Soviet Union has had immense expert
ences of the class struggle and its la
Dor unions have conducted victorious

least demand to be allowed to Inter

to assist the British proletariat both
materially and ideologically.
THE central council observes with
L indignation the strikebreaking at
titude of the Amsterdam International
and the leaders of the International
Miners Federation and the other in
ternational organizations who for the
sake of the bourgeoisie have refused
deplorably to support the heroic Brit
ish workers.
The plenum of the central council
considers 1t necessary to continue the
energetic campaign of assistance for
the British miners.
