ROME, May 4. 1881.
AISITORS TO italy this year viii notice
many changes since their last trip
over Those who knew the country
before the Fascist revolution will
" hardly believe it is the same place.
In the old days. however not very
many strangers came to Italy because the war
ms lust over and, owing to the diSorganization
which existed tourists did not feel encouraged
to come Therefore, today there are relatively
few people except the Italians themselves who
can compare the old Italy with the new.
Yet there Is much difference. not merely be-
tween the pre-Fascist Italy and today but be-
tween pre-war Italy and present conditions.
Fascism0 is q revolution, not mere reaction.
We look forward, not backward. and therefore
we did net try to get back TO pre-war condi-
taOnS.
To-day our industries are organized in an en-
tireiy new fashion. Instead Of the old quarrel
Ing between employers and employed We now
have the corporations which settle their
Affairs internally. On these corporations repre-
sentation Is provided for both sides on every
question. and the help Of the ministry OF corpo-
rattons is always at their disposal Under our
eharter Of labor the interests OF al are safe
guarded; all industries arrange their own con-
tracts by means of Joint committees OF employ
ers end employees TO provide the conditions most
convenient to all parties and that contract

mo can regard that rs State interference

selves and the employers who agree upon the
terms Of the contract they wtl have TO live

work Il Is to that We owe our recovery from
the conditions of anarchy which preceded. It
Is in Fascism also that we trust for our future
progress.
1t is therefore, wrong to say that Fascismo
began with me and will end with me. There Is
much more work to be done in Italy. and when
my work Is done then I shall leave in the peo-
pie q spirit which will endure
Some people Hken me TO Bismarck; they say
I have created a machine which only l. the
inventor, can work. We know how the German
Empire gradually drifted into the final catastro-
phe after BiSmarck's guiding hand was removed,
bat the spirit Of the Germans then was very
different from that of the Italians now.
We have something besides q marvellous ma
chine IN Italy today. We have a people tried
and tempered by the ordeal of anarchy and
who know what their patriotism is worth.
Some people seem to imagine because we
have not q parliamentary government exactly
like the English one with system of warning
parties inside the House and large mass v0te
outside it, that Italy Is no longer q democratic
country It Is not necessary to have all that in
order to know the will Of the Italian people We
have our ballot boxes, too, Of course and our
own system Of elections.
What do men say Of me2 If they hated me
I should be only one against millions Instead
Of that, I have converted them FaScismo
started with seven men in q whole nation now
Fascismo is the nationl We have been judged
by our acts Fascismo has convinced the minds
and captured the hearts Of the Italian people.
1T IL absurd for anybody to suggest that
Fascismo Is q rule Of the sword. There
is no need TO rule by the sword. The people
trust FaseismO; they are enthusiastic about It,
FascismO Is not q military rule, nor il the
patxiotiSm of the Italian aggressive We do not
seek war but If anybody seeks war with as We
intend that al the regrets shall be with our
enemies
We are sincere In desiring no war. in spite
Of what Is said to the contrary. Italy needs
peace for the consolidation OF her industries

and the expansion Of her trade. Therefore We
shall do nothing to upset the internal stability
which We have brought 10 the country.
But we mean nobody else to upset it. either.
And when see other nations with words OF
peace on their lips and their hands upon their
sword hilts, it would be treachery to Italy not
to take steps to safeguard our country.
To consolidate our industrial organization we
have recently established o system Of labor
exchanges for dealing with unemployment. al
though there Is not much unemployment in
Italy, and what we have is largely seasonal.
Through these labor exchanges we shall even
tually achieve an enormous economy Of time
and trouble.
Already the work that has been achieves in
q few months is very good Our employers now
have to seek their labor through the exchanges.
The managers Of the exchanges are able to lay
their fingers on the most suitable man for every
job that is available. The unemployed are
saved all the trouble and expense of writing
replies to newspaper advertisements, all the
heartbrsak of tramping the streets looking for
work, because the exchanges provide the vacan-
cies. The exchanges are classified by indus-
tries-agriculture, commercial and industrial.
AS our organization increases and extends In
all fields. will the capacity OF our industries
to employ, and the yield from them viii oend
to make italy richer and more prosperous
country even than she Is now just as our ef-
forts in the last eight years have brought her
from anarchy to order.
