Italy Reported Near Revolt And Its Ministry Totterm? fond nu cd from page 1 full of energy and vitality, of a firmly confient attitude, and as considering fat to abandon power at auch a mo ment would be equivalent to a general deserting his soldiers on the battle? field almost treason to the King and the country. This is not the moment to desert but to remain inflexible. To aerifico everything, life itself if neces? sary, in the service of Italy is Signor Nitti's views, according to his friends. The problem is being considered whether the King should be permitted to risk going to tho Chamber to be insulted. There have been suggestions that on that day it would be advisable for him to develop a "diplomatic illness." In that case the royal speech might be read by the Premier. The anti-Pocialists' view is that an anti-monarch isi demonstration might not be a bad thing. They argue that ' if the Socialists from the beginning ! tendered parliamentary work impos I 8ible by their excesses this condition ! would react against them and tend to i decrease their numbers largely when ; the country was appealed to after the I dissolution of the Chamber. Victor's Abdication Suggested ! Another element in conservative '. circles, however, has suggested even i such a rndical measure as the abdica ! tion of Kinjj; Victor Emmanuel in favor i of the Hiiko of Aosta. who is espo ; dally popular with the army and : anmng the parties favorable to the recent war. It is contended in oppo ; -mon to this view, that such a course would not help the situation from the conservative standpoint as the per? sonality of the sovereign is not at i issue. If n change in the ruler were i t" be nn advantage, it is argued in ?his quarter, the best arrangement po? ? sibly would be the elevation of Crown Prince Humbert under a regency, pos , sibly that of the Duke of Aosta. JVi#/i Calls Talk of a Revolt Absurd And Pleads for American Aid to Italy ROME, Nov. 24 (By The Associated. Press). -"Tito peoples of Europe will not have another war, and because the ? Socialists form a party which always I has opposed war the people of Italy I voted for them " said Francesco Nitti, i the Premier, in explaining to the cor- ? respondent yesterday the present Ital- j ian situation and the true meaning of ' the last general elections, when the I number of Socialist members of the ! Chamber of Deputies was more than , tripled. He characterized reports in ' circulation abroad that Italy was on the verge of a revolution as "simply absurd." Premier Nitti continu?e': "The result of the elections surprised many, but not those who followed care? fully the course of events and their effect. Of the 508 Deputies in the Chamber there will be about 90 Catho? lics, more than 150 Socialists anri 10 or 12 Republicans. This leaves 250 Con? stitutional Deputies, representing mod? erate tendencies besides the Catholics, who are fervent patriots. Majority True Democrats "The majority of ,hem arc sincere democrats, ready to participate in the government of the country. Tim is proved by the fact that two of them are members of my Cabinet, while one belonged to the preceding administra? tion. "In addition, the majority of Social? ists returned is not the expression of a political program, but rather of the people's state of mind. "Four-fifths, at least, of the Italian Socialists belong to the Labor party and are representatives of the "working classes in the social and economic fields, and, therefore, an expression of the new great industrial democracy which is now being built up. "The Italian Socialists form a party destined sooner ^r later to abandon their negative attitude for participa? tion in the ?ivernment. Do not be led away by appearances. Most of the voles given the Socialists were not given for the love of Socialism, but means manv other things?firstly, the discontent inevitable after the war. and. secondly, the dissatisfaction felt in Italy for the way her motives have been impugned. Says America Is Misinform?! "Reports circulating abroad?I must say especially in America - about our situation and the condition of public order in Italy are absolutely false and even ridiculous. They continually say we are on the verge of a revolution, which ia simply absurd, considering the exceptional moment.' Italy is pass? ing through like all the European na? tions snd also after-war psychology, the genera! elections in Italy occurred with extraordinary few incidents worthy of mention, ".Now pubnc order is perfect indeed, und this is a boast which few nations can make nowadays?there is not a single strike in Italy." The Premier sa.id this with a humorous- smile, add? ing immediately: "Of course I cannot guarantee, to be ibie to say so much to-morrow. But ivhat is certain is that work is being resumed everywhere, and everything loads us to hope that the entire coun? try is ready to devote itself whole? heartedly to the much needed task of ?reconstruction. This being the posi? tion of affairs in Italy, it is easy to imagine how hard it seems to us that cur condition is not judged with justice and equity, especially by our friends in America. I have often told them that their obstinacy in not helping "us solve our difficulties is explained only by their having an incorrect, that is. no just, appreciation of our efforts and sac? rifices. Feels Unjustly Treated "It Is useless to hide the truth. Italy feels she has been unjustly treated. Let U3 look at the question dispas sionately. Of the three European pow? ers which waged war airainat Germany Italy is the country that, proportion ately to her national riches, resources f.m;i population, suffered the most, ano is stili suffering. We are sti 1 eating war bread., the meat supply is abso? lutely inadequate to the needs of the popu.ation and there is not enough miik for the children and sick. "W e have no coal and are burning the re? mainder of our precious forests, there being districts where some even sacri? fice their furniture in order to keep a little warmth in their ill-nourished bodies, "In addition, Italy was the only coun? try among the A lies which entered the war spontaneously by i'.s own choice France fought because Germany in? vaded her territory; England because she had guaranteeil the neutrality of Belgium, and would have dishonored herself by being false to her word. Italy was drawn into the conflict by three reasons- by her sense of idealitv, by her determination to s*.*crifice in herself in order to oppose a monstrous domination, and. finally, to obtain her unredeemed national territory. "Italy free'y chose to suffer. It probably was not realize by our allie"., absorbed in their own terrible struggle that during the war Italy was often left to light her battle alone against all the forces of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which were superior to us i os tion, numbers and war materia' After the collapse of Russia we strug? gled alone and conquered." "Italy was the hist to conquer. The break-up of the Autsro-Hungarian Em? pire precipitated the fall of Germany. During tue war. Italy suffered the greatest of privations. She had the. smallest quantity of food and fuel and bore all sorts of hardships. Thousands of Italians lost all that made life dear *.o them, but voluntarily, with their eyes open, they entered the awful s'trugg.e for the fulfillment of the noblest ideals and aspiration.. Calls for American Aid "Now the war has ceased for a year. Ever since the Italians have seen their national aspirations opposed with a hardness and inflexibility which wounds them profoundly. 1 do not deny that mistakes may have been made by our statesmen, and have been made by our press, but the fact re? mains that all our Allies have gained from the war inflnitelj mure th.an Italy; that while Italy for long months has struggled, thus far it has been unsuc? cessfully, for her object, which aftet all. has merelv sentimental value. "Was it worth while to oppose us so cruelly regarding Fiume? Ar irregu ar situation has arisen boti in Fiume and Delmatin. The dis content which has b azed up in oui army and navy is the result of man} errors of our own, but above all? say it solemnly and deliberately?the} are in a great measure due to the con duct of our Allies. "I call with my whole sou? upon th? great American public to help us set tie the thorn, question of Fiume.

I ad dr: sa the American nation also a have the hateful feeling that the grea American democracy opposes what i jti3t.

They are our neighbor an must therefore, both in their own il terests and ours, share in our civil zation. "No country perhaps has great? courage than Italy in enduring gre? - i aices.

Polk Confers on U. S. Action if S potato Is Raided by oV Annunzio LONDON, Nov. 2-1.?Frank L. Polk Under Secretary of State and head of the American pence delegation, con? ferred with Rear Admiral Harry S. Knapp, commander of the United States naval forces in European wa? ters, and other naval officers this af? ternoon. The American naval position with respect to Da'matia was dis? cussed. It has been a question in the minds of American naval officers here as to just what might happen in con? nection with the American forces in the Adriatic should D'Annunzio at? tempt a raid on Spalato, where the American ships have their base. Great surprise has been expressed in naval circles respecting the action of the Italian Admiral Millo, at Zara, where he cordially greeted D'Annunzio and joined in his movement. It is authoritatively learned that Admiral Millo led the American officers to be? lieve that he would at least remain neutral should D'Annunzio attempt further aggression. Commander A. S. Hickey, of the U S. S. Maddnx, who has just returned from the Baltic, was cal'ed into the conference to give first-hand informa? tion on recent happenings in the Bal? tic States and northern Russia.

Broadway at 34th Street U. S. Mining Medal Given to Schneider, 'Schwab of France' Honor Conferred Six Years AjKO Unon Hoover Award? ed at Dinner to Delegates to Trade Parley Here The gold medal of the Mining and Metallurgical Society of America was conferred last night upon Charles Eu? gene Schneider, bend of the Creusot Steel Works and chairman of the French Economic Mission which at? tended the recent Foreign Trade Con? ference at Atlantic City. Mr, Schnei? der and the other delegates to the con? ference are being entertained in this city preliminary to their departure to? morrow on the President Grant. It was the sixth annual award of the medal, which is given for research work In metallurgy. Six years ago the recipients were Mr. and Mrs. Herberti C. Hoover, who had translated a six- j teenth century book on mining, which i theretofore had defied engineers and linguists. Mr. Schneider, who has been called the Charles M. Schwab of France, was "reefed at the dinner by Charles M. Schwab, of America, as "the leader of th'e steel industry." Mr. Schwab said lho steel industry in this country virtually was back on a peace-time basis. The need of the hour and of the future, he said, was "the forging of guns of public opinion and justice by , which the world will be won." Sees Need of More Guns Dr. Henry M. Howe, professor emeri? tus of metallurgy at Columbia Uni? versity," another speaker, was not so sure that the world hud passed beyond the need of guns oi steel. Germany's ambition had been thwarted only tem? porarily, he declared, and German ag? gression again would menace the civi? lized world. Germany, he asserted, was intrinsically criminal. He called attention to the magnitude of the Creusot. work?, where 250,000 men are employed, pointing jut that they had supplied three-fourths of the French artillery used in the war and also had furnished Belgium and Ser? bia wish guns. Engineers from Creu? sot. he said, had been sent to the I'nited States when this nation de? clared war to help in organizing the American steel industry for war.

About 100 delegates to the Foreign Trade Conference inspected the Bush Terminal in Brooklyn with members of the Merchants' Association and the United States Chamber of Commerce. Then they attended a luncheon at the Brooklyn Chamber of C mmerce.
