1910 SceIba Vote
In Italian Senate
Hear1ens backers
By the Associated Pres,

ROME, Feb. 27. - Premier
Mario Scelba's pro-Western gov
ernment, safely over the first of
two parliamentary hurdles, was
oracing itself with optimism
today for the second test.
The 52-year-old premier
hated by the extremists of both
right and left-won by only 13
ballots a vote of confidence in
the Senate last night. The tally
was 1913 to ITO.
Debate will begin in the
Chamber of Deputies Tuesday
on Scelba the man and his
slightly left-of-center program
for social and economic reforms.
After about 10 days of argu-
ment. the chamber will take a
confidence vote.
Mr.. Scelba's supporters were
heartened by the firmness Of his
coalition under the pressures of
Communicated strikes and at
tacks by his critics in the SEN
ate. They were confident today
he will win the chamber vote.
The coalition of Christian Dem
ocrats. Social Democrats and
Liberals. with the added support
of the Republicans. has a theo-
retical margain of 16 votes in
the 590-member lower house.
Not until both houses have
voted their confidence in the
new government can Mr.. Scelba
proceed with his program. which
is designed to sap the strength
of Italy's dangerously large
Communist party.
Last nights senate victory no
ticeably improved the premier's
chances of beginning his pro-
gram, at least. 1t was the first
time since the June 7 elections
of 1853 ended eight years OF
Italian political stability that a
coalition government has sue
ceeded in winning such a vote.

Interpretation given to it is
best illustrated in a cable
to the London Times from
its Washington correspondent:
Senator Mccarthy this after
noon achieved what Gen. Bur-
goyne and CORVALLIS never
achieved - the surrender of
the American Army" This
shows why an agreement which
Mr.. Stevens himself consid-
cred fair and in the interest
of the public became once
more a football for political
passions.
The hard core of the entire
question is whether or not the
investigation of Communists
who have been smuggled into
the Government over a num-
ber of years should be relent-
lessly pursued.
Mccarthy is a hard fighter
and frequently operates with
out using any anesthetic. He
was assured at one time of the
full cooperation of the Sec
retary of the Army and relied
on that cooperation. 1t is un-
fortunate that he should have
vented his spleen on Gen.

that the Pentagon had re-

Instead the general became
evasive, as was shown in the
executive testimony released
later for publication. The
harsh words heaped on him
were unjustif1ed, since he was
evading questions not as pri-
vate individual. but as an
Army officer in uniform obey
ing orders from his superiors.
This brought about the SEN

The kernel of dissension be-.

the committee was the order
which Mr.. Stevens issued for
bidding officers to testify be-
fore that committee. This
was an untenable position,
since the order could be inter-
preted as removing members
of the armed forces from the
jurisdiction of Congress.
