Pro-Western
Party 10
Rule in Italy

ROME. May 20 R-Final
election returns MADE plain to-
day the pro-western Christian
Democrats win continue 10
severn Italy. either In coalition
with the minor center parties or
with their support.
The palloting Sunday and
Monday for a new parliament
left the political picture about
the same. The center and ex-
IRENE left made small gains.
The monarchists lost heavily
and the Fascists dropped
slightly.
When the new parliament
meets June II, the Christian
Democrats win be asked again
10 form a government. They
have ruled since World War II.
Premier Adone Zoli Is ex-
pected TO step down and give
Christian Democrat leader
Amintore Fanfani a chance TO
become premier a second time.
He held the job for 20 days in
1854. Premier Zoli, q senator,
got the job a year ago because
he was a less controversial fig-
ure than the party leader.
Christian Democrats Short
The Christian Democrats took
273 seats in the dominant 596-
member Chamber Of Deputies,
or Is short Of a bare majority.
But they can count for support
on most Issues from the other
center parties, whose IS seats
could give the government q
safe margin Of at least AZ
The standing of the parties
in the chamber will be: Chris
tian Democrats 273, a gain of
IL: Liberals 10, up 2; Social
Democrats %, up 4; Republi-
cans z. UP q; South Tyrol and
Aosta Parties 3 (no charge;
Communists 40, a loss of 3;
Socialists "a, a gain Of 9: Mon
archists 20. down IL; MSI
Fascists) rs, down 4. others 2.
Voting for the Senate ran
approximately the same as for
the chamber but the Christian
Democrats won 122 Of the GAG
Senate seats at stake. Nine
seats won By the other center
parties assured the government
control Of the upper chamber
also.
Biggest Percentage 42.4
The Christian Democrats
polled about l21a million Of the
20 million votes cast for the
chamber. Their percentage
was 42.4, compared with 40.1 in
1888. The Communists and
allied Socialists, with nearly IL
million votes, raised their per-
centage from $50 to 36.6.
Most political observers
agreed the leftist advances
stemmed in part from RusSia's
Sputnik achievements and the
Communist campaign against
atomic missile bases in Italy.

President Eisenhower would have TO declare a
ona emergency before the armed services could order
ready forces to duty the Penagon said yesterday

lists that there is present intention Of calling them
up because of the Middle East crisis.
While the national emergency declared by President
Truman in the 1850 Korean crisis is still partially in
existence under the Reserve Forces act Of 1855 the
President would have to declare emergency before
exercising his authority to order to active duty up to one
million ready reServsts. To call than that num-
ber he would need new authority from Congress.
As Of last April the 254743S members of the ready

One major East Coast naval

yesterday. This was the scene
as described by Navy sources:
On streets usually crowded by
sailors only a handful Of white
