Italian Red Leader
FIees Vice CHARGE
BY the Asseeioted Pres.

ROME. Nov. I8.-The Com-
munists, after months OF LAM
basting Italy's government for
immoralities alleged in the
Wilma Montesi case, were them
selves smeared yesterday by
charges of immoral acts involv-
ing minors" leveled against one
of their chief supporters.
The accused Red was 50-year-
old Giuseppe Sotgiu, president
of Rome's provincial council,
He quit his post and fed into
hiding after Rome police charged
him with inducing his wife to
join him and a group of teen
aged youths in goings-on at an
unlicensed house of prostitution.
Sotgiu's letter of resignation
to the provincial council said
he wanted to be free to defend
his honor.
Inc Rome communist mead
quarters announced he had
been suspended from all party
activities ding g defense
against the grave charges (.
incompatible with membership
in the organization"
Police said Sotgiu and his wife
had left home in an automobile
and hadn't been seen since. All
frontier stations were ordered to
arrest the couple If they tried to
leave the country.
Sotgiu was defense attorney
last spring for Rome magazine
editor Silvano Mlto, who was
tried for spreading false rumors
after he published charges that
party girl Wilma Montesi was
murdered at an orgy involving
prominent Romans.

THIS WEEK
In
WASHING

OF considerable interest in the
news is the announcement from
the State Department regarding
public hearings on proposals for
revision of the General Agree
ment on Tariffs and Trade
(GATT).
This agreement was consum-
mated after World War II by
the United States and 33 other
countries in an effort TO reduce
world trade barriers Almost in
conjunction, President Eisen-
hover let it be known from Den
yer that he will ask the oath
Congress to place foreign trade
legislation high on the list of
pressing business when it con-
venes next January |.
AS a matter of fact the Presi-
dents foreign economic program
was one area in the 83rd Con-
gress where Mr., Eisenhower
took beating from the high
tariff advocates within his party
and he only recently himself
raised the tariff on imported
Swiss watch works at the be-
hest of the large American watch
manufacturers and over the
stubborn protests of more than
fifty smaller watch manufacture
erS.
1t will be remembered that
early in the Spring of 1853 the
President announced what was
termed bold, new foreign
economic policy to reduce world
trade barriers and he told the
United States Chamber of Com
merce that the nations pros
perlty, it's very security was de-
pendent upon more trade with
other nations and that such a
policy was the very basis for his
administrations whole foreign
polcy. TINS policy was to be the
elimination of the slogan
Trade, not Aid"
The president, through the
Congress, set up a 11-man com
mittee headed by Clarence
Randall which came through
with a recommendation for low.
er tariffs and a three-year exten-
sion Of the reciprocal Trade Act.
The Congress however refused
to accept any of the recon-
| mendations of this committee
and the president was forced to
settle with bare one-year ex.
tension of Reciprocal Trade Act,
somewhat watered down. The
action of the Congress proved
conclusively that the high tariff
advocates, long the traditional
stand of the Republican party
were firmly. in the saddle anc
refused to be budged.

THE AMERICAN WAY
Compromising Folly

The 83rd Congress has closed
up shop It's members have gone
home, most of them TO patch up
their political fences and to
erect new ones. On the whole,
the 83rd Congress did pretty
good job and deserves the COM
mendation and thanks of a CRATE
fui nation.
Of course, no congress can be
expected to bat 1000 in the
Legislative League, and the 33rd
struck out on q few occasions
when it was at bat. One Of these
failures at the plate came in the
final innings of the session. II
left federal power policy as
cloudy as ever and, in some
respects as unfair as ever. The
'leftwing" supporters of gov
ernment ownership managed to
throw one Of their favorite
curves-the Preference Clause
by getting il inserted in the new
atomic energy law The 83rd
Congress certainly swung wild
ly on that one.
The Perfect Clause provides
that public bodies such as muni-
clpalities and rural cooperatives,
be given prior purchase rights
when the sale of electricity from
federal atomic plants becomes
commercially feasible. This par
allels existing legislation under
which public bodies get prefer
ence in the purchase of energy
from federal hydro-electric pro-
jects.
On numerous occasions | lave
pointed out in this column how
the Preference Clause combines
with the tax-free status of fed
eral power operations To dis
crIminate against investor own
cd electric companies and all
their millions of customers.
Stated in the most simple Ian
guage, it is system under
which the users of electricity in
areas served by tax-paying pri-
vately owned utilities are sub
sidizing consumers in public
power areas.
The subsidy process is a tricky
one - it is very we'll camouflag-
ed - the nations taxpayers do
not always realize just how
public power adds to their bur
dens. Fortunately, however more
and more of them are seeing
the light are managing to peer
through the smoke-screen, as
some representative opinions
will serve to demonstrate.
The California State Chamber
of Commerce, for instance, has
issued policy statement declar.

service from publicly regulated
