Parliament In a last-minute drive to-
night, refusing to rest on It's oars on
the eve Of elections.
After a festival day concentrating
the tenth anniversary of the founda-
ton Of militant fascism, party leaders
spoke in every town and city of Italy
tonight.
Election Holds Interest.
All classes show the greatest interest
IN tomorrow's election as an entirely
new experiment in parliamentary gov
eminent. The Chamber to be elected
was nominated by Is syndicates or
corporations embracing every activity
Of business. professional. artistic and
working class life.
The new Chamber would thus be
kind OF technical advisory board rather
than q political assembly. 1t will not
be in a position to bring about the fall
of cabinets or rapid changes In gov
eminent.
Speeches today were punctuated by
airplane flights, concerts, ringing OF
bells in public edifices, and set in a
framework of elaborate patriotic de-
coration. The most important was that
Of Augusta Turati, secretary Of the
Fascist party. before an immense
crowd IN the Piazza Colonna in Rome.
He echoed the Duce's announcement
to Black Shirts that voters should cast
their ballots for the ideal and Fascist
state, not for individuals
After the speeches fireworks in every
town of Italy made the heavens bril-
liant with pyrotechnical appeal Tor
o large vote.
Polling begins at am. and lasts
until Z at night. Each voter is to be
given two ballots, one marked Isl
I"Yes"), the other No" The voter
either approves or rejects the whole
list of 400 candidates. There can be
no scratching and. regardless of the
local district, every voter votes for or
against the entire list.
Counting Of the vote begins i'm
mediately after the polls close. At mid
night projects in 1910 districts will
begin telegrsphing the results to the
ministry Of the interior, so that fair
idea of the final poll will be available

The official count, however. will not
be issued for at least five or six days,
