as consequence of sustained buying

Fascist Italy have one liberty. 1t
is the liberty to say Eyes"
Fascist Italy has a managed
economy. To get a managed
economy citizens must give up
all their liberties for good.
Bolshevik Russia has q man
aged economy. It has eliminated
private profit. Fascist Italy has
retained private profit. This is
the principal difference between
the Russian and the italian Sys-
TENS Of managed economy.
Constitution Followed
Under fascism all taxation Is
without representation.
Nevertheless taxes are still col.
lected constitutionally. That vel.
lowed document dated 1848 pro.
vides in its Article 80:
mo taxation may be inn
posed or collected except with
the approval Of the two cham.
berS and sanctioned by the
King"
That Is to say taxation must
be approved by the representa-
tiveS Of the people. How are these
representatives Of the people
chosen under fascism?
Before the election the organi.
cations of employers and of work
erS prepare a list of 1000 names
of candidates. They submit these
names to the Grand Council of
the Fascist party.
The Grand Council selects 400
names. It need not confine its
choice to the 1000 names submit
ted by "the people" as represented
in the organizations of employers
and workers, but may put in as
many names as it likes of it's own
choosing.
The 400 names are then submit.

WarIike Conditions Prevail

COLON, Canal Zone, April 26.-As
the United States Navy fleet of Ill
vessels completed its 48-hour transit
through the Panama Canal yesterday,
it was learned that warlike conditions
obtaining during the movement were
made necessary by fears that attempts
might be made to interfere with the
maneuver
Authorities received information
from the Army Intelligence Service
several months ago that conspiracy
seemed in progress to thwart the swift
passage Of the flotilla through the
locks.
Guards Patrol Locks.
Consequently heavy guards of SOL
diers patrolled the locks during the
transit and smaller force will remain
indefinitely, it was said, to supplant
guards stationed at the vital parts of
the canal late in March.
Hitherto the locks have been with
out protection, and anybody has been
able to approach them day of night
l.
officers withheld their announcement
of plans to send the ships through in
a hurry until the last moment. Gen.
sorship was invoked as an extra pre-
cautionary measure.
Only one minor mishap occurred,
hoWeyer-the aircraft carrier Saratoga
knocked down two concrete lamp posts
at the Pedro Miguel Locks.
Commander in chief David F. Sellers
expressed himself pleased with the
clocklike work of men and ships.
The continuous transit of the canal
by the fleet as a unit has been very
valuable experience for all hands and
it is believed that very useful data
has been obtained" he told the Asso-
ciated Press
The successful accomplishment of
this evolution, which, SO far as is
known, is without precedent, was only
possible through the efficient organiza-
ton of the canal and the splendid CO.
operation of all hands"
Lexington First Through.
First to go through the canal was
the airplane carrier Lexington, which
left Balboa at Sill I'm. Monday. The
trainship Melville, the last, cleared
Gatun Locks at am. today.
Officers had hoped the movement
could be completed in half that time,
but heavy rain, the first of the sea-
son, contributed to the delay.
A strict censorship on cables and
dispatches during the passage was
Immediately lifted when the Melville
was through. Never before had such
conditions been imposed in the zone
on the sending of news.

without naval ships today; the special
service squadron ordinarily based on
the other side is now at Havana.
