Italy's Christian
Party Summons
Urgent Meeting
Rome (U.R) Italy's pro-Western
Christian Democratic party
today called an urgent meeting
of its leadership Friday to decide
what to do about the deadlocked
city councils in key Italian cities.
Rose, Genoa, Florence and
Venice headed the list of major
cities where the Democratic cen
ter parties scored gains but fail
ed to win a majority big enough
to govern. The local elections
were held throughout Italy Sun
day and Monday.
In these cities and several
smaller ones the only hope ap
peared to be to accept support
from either the extreme left, the
Communists or fellow-travelling
left-wins. (Fascist and Mon
archist parties).
Christian Democrat Premier
Antonio Seeni said before the
elections the center parties would
accept no such support from
the extremes. The silver-haired
premier said he feared that such
support would weaken the po
sition of his own middle-of-the
road government.
In Rome and in many other
city councils, the extreme right
wing ron-Fascists (MSI) held the
balance of power between the
evenly-matched center parties
and the leftists.
Failing to find some sort of
agreement in the deadlocked
councils, the local prefect would
have to appoint a commissioner
to do the mayor's job. In such
cases new elections within a few
months would be inevitable.
The loss of a solid majority
In certain key cities resulted
from a change in the electoral
law. Formerly the leading party
automatically received two-
thirds of the seats on a county
council; now seats are distrib
uted on a percentage basis.
It was the one big fly in the
ointment in what government
leaders considered an impressive
political victory for the center
parties in the first test of the
Kremlin's new "policy of
smiles."
Seaton Urged To
Aid Western
Mining
Washington U.R) Roy A.
Hardy, president of the Nevada
Mining association, urged Secre
tary of Interior-designate Fred
A. Seaton Tuesday to keep a
"good healthy mining industry
in the West."
Hardy and Gov. Charles Rus
sell of Nevada called at the
White House today.
Hardy, of Reno, Nev., said he
dropped by to congratulate Sea
ton on his new appointment.
Russell, he said, conferred with
Sherman Adams, President Eis
enhower's assistant.
Asked if he planned to dis
cuss the government's tungsten
purchasing program with Sea
ton, Hardy replied that he want
ed to offer his congratulations
and to "talk about mining in
general."
He said he wanted to stress to
Seaton the importance of "keep
ing a good healthy mining in
dustry in the West."
