We may be sure that there would have been a revolutionary eovernment In Rome by now 11 the Bolshevists naa oeen ame to put across their Hash rebellion. They did their utmost by creating na tion-wide disorders and a general strike to paralyze the country. He Got Tough However, in this moment of su. preme danger to the state, Pre mier De Gasperi got tough. It was do or die. He flung the police and troops Into the disaffected areas and warned the Bolshevists that he would use all the force at his command to break the "insurrec tion" and Insurrection It was.

The threat ot a civil war thus was met successfully, at least for! the moment. And it is significant. that it was checkmated in those especially dangerous early hours when passions were running high as the result of the assault on Tog-liatti. That was Bolshevism's big mo ment if it had the necessary strength. Communization of ItalJ is one of Moscow's prime objec tives, because the peninsula would be an invaluable base for the con quest both of western Europe and the Mediterranean. Time alone will tell how great I a disservice has been done to Italy I In particular and democracy in general by the shooting of Togli- atti. In the first place it contra vened the code of democracy. But beyond that it came at a time when the fortunes of the powerful Communist party In Italy were on I the decline. The Reds had taken a ' sound trouncing in the last general election, and their once-strong grip on the throat of the unfor tunate nation was slipping. Now the Communists have a martyr in the person of one of the j most prominent Bolshevist leaders a power even in Moscow itself. That will, to say the least, help stiffen the ranks of the Commu nists and might win them some sympathizers from outside the fold. Still, it may be that De Gasperi's swilt and energetic action in those crucial early hours may have averted catastrophe. One would expect a good deal to depend on Togliatti's progress towards re covery. Should he die and he still Is a very 111 man it might precipitate another and even more violent reaction than did the ac tual shooting.
