WORK PROGRAM FOR ITALIANS Mussolini To Order All! Ahle-Bodied Italians To Work (Copyright 1934 by CP.I Rome, Nov 12.— (U.K) —Com pulM<»ry work for all able bodied lUH- j ians. including the scions of the ■ glamorous ancient families forebears hare made history, will | be a part of the new corporative state program, it was learned to-1 day. Work as a social duty for every j one is the ideal. The program is regarded here' as no less drastic u reform than the economic parliament, the coun<ll of corporations in which capital and labor are representml equally and which in future is to lie the ' (equivalent of .the present chamber’ ■ of deputies. I Premier Benito Mussolini made ( ' the announcement of the compul- } sory work program in his speech j {Saturday inaugurating the counciliof corporal ions. It was not em-1 , phasized at that time. Mussolini said' "The fascist revolution maintains the principle of the equality of all individuals before the stale, aud, it adds another one: the equality i of all individuals regarding work as a social luty." It means the searching out of a somewhat larger leisure class and the insistence that its members go to work. The work program principally strikes the old landed aristocracy, which has for centuries lived in the world’s capitals while its lands have been developed at home byhired administrators Like the program for the new corporate state, the work-for.al! idea is the development of years of study. As far back as 1925. Mussolini { attacked the aristocracy for "loaf-1 ing around In the de luxe hotels ; when they are needed in the colon- ; ization of the Italian territories in Africa.” o Commodore Second, Girls Play Tuesday The Commo 1 re reserve team I and th- 1).
