After striking union leaders announced late today they were considering calling off the general strike, since six of their im prisoned leaders were released, city, provincial and federal officials united in presenting to them evidences of bol shevism which they said had been traced to members of the central strike committee.

In the corridor of the chamber of deputies after the vote which resulted in the fall of the Italian cabinet, former min ister Gallenga expressed his view of the result thus: "The deputies and the people are tired of this situation. The delay and the uncertainty is affecting Italian prestige. Therefore, there has arisen the necessity for having new men in power better adapted to organization for facing the grave problems with which Italy is confronted." Other views expressed by the sena tors and deputies who animatedly dis cussed the situation were that the fall of the cabinet was the result of several months of discontent with the government's foreign policy, exempli fied in the peace negotiations in Paris, culminating with President Wilson's refusal to accede, under any form to the Italian demands, and likewise the threatening internal situation. ference with the entire personnel of the American delegation to the peace conference.

They are very democratic people and It has been very delightful to find, sir, that you are a true democrat.

They need to have a friendly hand extended to them, but they do not need to have anybody take care of them.
