MCCANN United Press Correspondent Communism has just suffered a big defeat in Italy a defeat which is a personal victory for M&L. Vernier Mario Scelba. As the result of a labor un ion election, the Commun ists have lost control of the workers of the Fiat Motor Co., in Turin. That may Charles McCann not SOUna HKe much. But Fiat is Italy's biggest industrial enterprise. Fiat mech anics are regarded as the cream of Italian industrial workers. But the Reds had controlled them for years. Communism has not been do ing so well in Italy for quite a while. Although the Reds fought desperately to win the Fiat an nual election, they lost out by better than a two-to-one major ity. The defeat is expected to have its effect all over Italy. Ambassador Luce Helps The Red defeat is a victory for Scelba, now visiting in Am erica, because he-is Communist er.-my No. 1 in Italy. ..haring in Scelba's victory in the election is Clare Boothe Luce, the beautiful, brilliant United States ambassador to Rome. Mrs. Luce cannot, of course, interfere in Itals domestic af fairs. What she has done is to let it be known that factories in which the Communists have un ion control will get no contracts for American military aid production. still the largest in Western Eur ope, with a membership of just over 2,000,000. Back in 1948 it was a serious threat. It had come out of World War II strong in mem bership and prestige because of its partisan activities against the Fascists and the Nazis. The whole world watched the 1948 Italian parliamentary elec tion. Had the Communists won and many feared they would it would have been a serious business for the West. Created Riot Squads Scelba, stocky, bald, decep tively smiling, played a big part in their defeat. Scelba declared war on the Communists. He reorganized the police, motorized them and form ed the now famous "Celere" riot squads. The Communists were fomen ting disorders all over the coun try. Scelba's men moved in. It was not before Scelba's riot police were waiting wherever the Communists started any thing. When in July, 1948, a student tried to assassinate Communist Leader Palmiro Togliatti, the Reds threatened a national re volt. Scelba packed the streets of big cities with police. Red demonstrations were broken up by force, and the threat petered out. Since then, Scelba has fought the bandits of his native Sicily, the Monarchists and the Neo Fascists. But the Communists re main his favorite enemies.
