parliament has: been dissolved and the citizens will have an opportunity to elect new senators and representatives. j The move was made by 'the) party of Premier Alcide de. Gasperi in the belief that a general election would i strengthen his position. Gasperi is a moderate who has displayed commendable good sense in ministering Italy’s affairs. He has been committed to the plan for building a strong European army to resist Communism and has cooperated with the West on most matters.
