ITALY IS BUSY WRINGING WATER FROM INDUSTRY ; Purpose of Mussolini Is Stabilization of Cur- ; ' rency. | 3ii Tin'fs KDcclal I; JtOMiC, jin. i*.—Premier Musso;Ljui and Count Volpt. minister of 11 finance, me endeavoring to wring l ■the water from Italy’s industry. Vigi ' orous retrenchment began four months ago and now is showing j i esulis. The primary purpose of I the campaign is the stabilization of ;Italian currency. ; Mushroom growth and the unprecedented appearance of new tstock companies began in- 1920. Inuring the first nine months of 1925 •Italy’s incorporated companies inicreased 1.220 in number, while ini' corpora ted capital increased- six •billion lire., lit September the decrease began When only thirty-five I new companies were formed, with i u total capital of 340 million lire. New Strategy • On the last day of September ; there were 10.163 stock companies jin Italy with a total capital of 35 i billion lire, compared to 3,000 com- ; panies with a capital of six billion ; lire during the year before the war. ; Even taking into consideration the I depreciation of the currency, this : increase is large. The general confederation of in- ;• uustry and the association of Italian : incorporated companies were the ■"first to react to the government’s j new strategy. A resolution against i further increases in capital, which i would be likely to interfere with stabilization plans, was adopted. In 1919 the number of stock com* panies was not much greater than before the war, and the capital employed only slightly greater, the years of greatest increase have been 1923-24-25. These year 9 correspond with (he advent and continuation of Mussolini’s government. Currency Stronger ■ Italian exchange has fluctuated nervously, but during the past three years it has remained within the limits of twenty to twenty-fi\o to the dollar except on one day When it

| went to tweniy-nlne. The exchange ; now hovers In the neighborhood of Awenty-five. and It is likely that the government intends to stablize It at this figure. The gold standard still is far off. It is o * dally explained that the adoption of a gold standard work great harm to the export trade and produce results in world commerce generally which do not let themselves to calculation. American capital now seeking investments in Italy largely will be used to develop water power. Development of water power will relieve Italy of her 'dependence on British coal, and the trade balance will react favorably. The dock period of the Fascist ) regime apparently has passed with I Mussolini’s determination to squeeze out the water. PUPILS AT STATEHOUSE Civics Class From School 15 Watch Officials Work.

WINTER DALES STIR UP MINES Anchor Chains Break in. North Sea. . Bu l nilPrrs* LONDON, Jan. 16.—'Winter gales in the North Sea have churned up mines laid in deep water during the war, breaking their rusted anchor chains and bringing them to the surface, until the menace has become a source of unusual anxiety to the shipping world. Several were reported during November. and one or two in Decern* ber. One actually blew up a trawler near the mouth of the Thames, hurting the men into the water. During the war the American forces alone laid 60,000 mines between Bergen and the Orkney Islands. Os course, according to the Nautical Magazine, only 40,000 were swept up and destroyed, leaving 20,000 “unaccounted for.”, Many of them are believed by this time to be “duds” but all shipping is warned to keep a sharp watch for them. If the nuisance spreads, the admiralty will resume Its mine patrols.
