VaihFuU
By MARGARET SCHULER
Rome - On Rome's Janic
ulum hill the big gun boomed
out a hundred and one gun i
salute; trmpets of silver
blared, and jets loomed over
the city. This was in honor of
the new president of Italy,
Antonio Segni.
Hundreds of thousands
cheered as he rode along in
an open car to the Quirinal
palace to take his oath of of
fice. Escorting the president
were the tall, glittering ar
moured cuirassiers, riding
black horses. (At one time
these were the special guard
of the kings of Italy). From
the palace he rode to the Pi
azza of Venetia-where Musso
lini stood on the balcony at
one time to harangue his
people.
Antonio Segni is 71 years
old, a scholar and, they say,
more interested in education,
and agricultural advancement
than in politics. He is a Chris
tian Democrat. His election
was a close one. In order to
reach the majority of votes re
quired, it was necessary to
have II ballots. Elections here
are by the parliament rather
than by popular vote. As
there are thirty political par
ties in Italy, it presented prob
lems. In the final voting the
Fascists and the Monarchists
turned for him. The Social
ists and the Communists sol
idly voted against him.
During thte last balloting
(which was carried on tele
vision) insults were hurled,
angry exchanges, and even a
fist fight took place.
Americans and other west
ern states are happy about the
election. Senor Segni immedi
ately pledged allegiance to the
North Atlantic treaty, and the
European common market. He
said, that throughout many
years Italy had fought for
freedom and that the North
Atlantic treaty is a pledge to
guarantee the liberty of all
peoples. He said too that the
Western nations can aid the
new nations of the world who
are aspiring towards liberty.
The Communists and Social
ists sat stony-faced through
out the speech.
It was just 20 years since
R jme-by referendum-was de-
cared a republic, and the king
dethroned. Senor Segni is the
third president.
