Coffee rises
*but Italians
keep sipping
ROME (AP) — Romans sipped
espresso and savored cappuc
cino Thursday as they always
have, heedless of consumer
leaders calls to forego Italy's
favorite coffee dnnks for one day
to protest high prices
We are selling as much coffee
as any day, declared a coffee
shop owner on Via della Con
ciliazione near St Peter s square,
ochomg the sentiment of a string
of Rome s downtown cafes
Despite a month-long build-up
the one-day boycott, it ap
^^eared to be a victory of ingrained
habit over organized con
sumerism, still a weak movement
in Italy
The city s largest daily news
paper, II Messaggero, asked Ro
mans to skip their cappuccino and
espresso demitasse lor a full day
April 14 to demonstrate to the
speculators that continuing high
prices will not go without reac

made by forcing steam through
ground coffee beans. Cappuccino
is espresso with milk

Messaggero also appealed to cot

'aromatic herbs."

was readily available Thursday —

what it was less than two years
ago
Only a tew of the city's 6,000
coftee bars displayed signs
printed by the newspaper urging
Romans "Don't drink coffee at my
place. Strike of consumers
against speculation."
Said one cate owner in the
quaint and teeming Trastevere
quarter: "If you want espresso.
