Jan. 12-AVThe resigna tion of Premier Alcide de Gasperi and his anti-communist coalition cabinet today cleared the way for ine iirsr major reorganization of Italy's government since the de feat of communism in the 1948 el ections. De Gas peri's action brought a crisis? only in name. The out going cabinet the fifth coalition lineup De Gasperi has headed since 1945 will remain in office at least temporarily on a care taker basis. Not a seasoned political obser ver doubted that the astute. 68- year-old Christian democrat will be charged with forming his sixth government. The Christian demo crats have an absolute majority in the chamber of deputies and con trol the senate. The only unanswered question was whether De Gasperi will try another coalition or give Italy her first one-party government since the war. Since he led his party to victory over the communist-formed pop ular front in April, 1948, De Gas peri has insisted on maintaining a coalition cabinet. Following the balloting, he said many members of other parties had voted for the Christian democrats to Insure the communists' defeat and, for this reason, other parties should par ticipate in his government Recently, however, a growing faction in the Christian democrat ranks has thumped for a single party Christian democrat gov ernment Their demands have been widely publicized In the opposition press, but there was no way of measuring their influence in party councils. The cabinet declared last night to resign.
