! i Italy Plunged Into Political Crisis as Cabinet Resigns i ; Premier Resigns; Serious Trouble Ahead Expected ROME (UPI) - The stop-gap cabinet ot Premier Giovanni Leone resigned en masse today, plunging this North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) country back into the political crisis that has plagued it for most of the year. The cabinet, formed after general elections last April, rated to resign in a zvnunuic session, ending its 137 days in office. The development had been exDected. Leone immediately went to nresent his resienation to Presi dent Antonio Semi, a Christian Democrat like himself. Other Passible Action Unless they call new elec tions, the Christian Democrats appeared to have only two pos sible courses of action: To form another ceo!er4eft coalition or to set op a new government based on nfht-wmg support. Either could lead to serious trouble, with the Communists the secuod Urges! political party in the country waiting in the wings to cash in. The um' mumsts also might stand to gain by elections. In April, they picked up another million votes. To form a new center - left under Christian Democratic Party Leader Aldo Moro prob ably would mean bowing to the left-wing Socialists who are op posed to any nuclear arms m Europe. It also would mean giv ing the Socialists cabinet posts, ending their government opposi tion which has stretched over most of their 71-year history in Italian politics. Money Leaves Country . A center-left also could open the road to numerous economic problems. During the past months, the industrialists who have been mostly responsible for Italy's tremendous economic growth have been depositing lire worth hundreds of millions of dollars in Swiss banks. The drain on Italian currency already has had an effect, and a new center-left government is almost certain to increase the flow unless some definite action to stop it is taken. , The flight ot money abroad Is a result of a steady infla tionary spiral. Little has been done to check the trend and the situation, according to econo mists, is reaching the critical point. The other formula for a polit ical solution based on right wing support has been tried repeatedly over the past years. Because a number of small right-wing parties must give support in order to form a par liamentary majority, it usually leads to a short-lived government.

Public Works Bill Supporters Seek To Pass Administration WASHINGTON (UPI)-Some House members are hoping to secure passage this year of a $900 million job-producing pub lic works bill by adopting new strategy to bypass the adminis tration. , The legislation is designed to create jobs by pumping into economically depressed areas federal funds for sewage and water systems, health facilities, road improvements and other projects. Rep. John A. Blatnik, D- Minn., introduced the measure, which could continue for an other year the accelerated pub lic works program on which $850 million has been spent since last year. ' Won't Be Asked Blatnik, chairman of a public works subcommittee which is holding hearings on the bill, said Kennedy administration of ficials would not be asked to testify on it. This avoids putting the ad ministration on the spot. Ad ministration officials might find it hard to endorse such a large spending program in view of their arguments for a tax cut. however much they might agree with the alms of the pub lic works bill. Chairman Wilbur Mills. D- Ark., of the House Ways & Means Committee, in success fully steering the administra tion's tax bill through t h e House, argued that the govern ment could not travel "both roads" in combatting a recession. Must Do Something He said it would have to be done either by heavy federal spending or through a tax cut. The implication was that by adopting the tax rut, Congress would not have to vote addition al spending programs. But Blatnik and several other House members maintain that it will take sometime before the effects of tax reduction are felt. In the meantime, they con tend, something must be done for areas where unemployment is high and persistent.

MORNING GAGGING (, U hat cniitrs morning gaptint? A. Mouth breathing probably causes much of the morning p agger's troubles. Mouth breathing during steep can be due to blockage of the nasal passages because of infection, allergies, or some physical de rangement. Mouth breathing tends to dry the qormally moist, "slippery" throat tis sues. Swallowing causes the parched, "scratchy" surfaces to rub together, thus stimulat ing the gag reflex. Treatment, as prescribed by a physician, might start with measures di reeled toward establishing and maintaining normal nasal breathing. FEVER IN CHILDREN ).

It also would grant official recognition and real legislative powers to na tional conferences of bishops, such as the U.S. National Cath olic Welfare Conference. Liberals Defend Idea Paul Cardinal Richaud of Bordeaux, France, led a long list of Western European liber als who strongly defended the idea of national episcopal con ferences, and argued that the document should go even fur ther in freeing bishops from un due interference by the Roman Curia. Today's debate, coming after a four-day council recess, indi cated that the new documents will generate at least as much controversy as the one on the church, which fathers discussed for four weeks previously at this session. Cardinal Mclntyre indicated he was particularly anxious about the proposal to grant of ficial recognition and juridical status to national conferences of bishops. He said this would entail dangerous consequences for the unity of the church. Cardinal Richaud replied that there is no question of allowing national episcopal conferences to settle questions of faith or doctrine, but he said they are far more competent than Vati can bureaucrats to judge where adaptations are necessary to lo cal situations. Decisions Mentioned He mentioned decisions on the use of modern languages in Catholic worship as an example of issues that should be left to national conferences of bishops. The proposals for a sweeping decentralization of authority in the church was contained in a document which was described as a "declaration of independ ence" for bishops. It asserts that bishops should be allowed to run their own di oceses without undue interfer ence from the Vatican bureauc racy.

Hatfield To Speak At Joint Session SALEM (UPI) -Gov. Mark Hatfield will appear before the joint session of the legislature Monday afternoon to re commend solutions to the state's fiscal crisis. The governor will address the joint session in the House cham bers shortly after the special session is convened at noon. He will recommend that law makers open basic school sup port to allotment control, and ask for re-enactment of the one shot speedup of withholding tax collections. Travis Cross, Hatfield's press secretary, said the governor's address would be about IS min utes in length. course. It speaks instead of tha need for harmonious relation ships between bishops and tha Roman Curia. But it clearly re flects the resentments of many Catholic bishops against the ne cessity of consulting Rome on even minor matters of adminis tration and sometimes wait ing months for an answer. ; The key principle which the document would establish is that bishops, while remaining under the over-all jurisdiction of the Pope, "shall have all the faculties which the proper and expeditious exercise of their or dinary and immediate power demands." Canon lawyers . pointed out that this amounts to a "decla ration of independence" for bishops, assuring them of far greater autonomy in routine administration of their dioceses than they have had in the past.
