Saturday, August 2, 1924 ANTHEASCIST | PARTIES MAY MAKE NEW MOVE Big Meeting Planned For Sunday (Special to the DAILY WORKER) ROME, Aug. 4.—All members of the parliamentary opposition parties, which includes all the social-democratic groups and the Catholic group to some ex- tent but not the Communists, . wil hold a private membership meeting here Sunday. It is un- derstood that the internal polit- ical situation will be the chief topic of discussion, altho no agenda has been announced. Some revised course of action may be laid out. Premier Mussolini has not met the demands of the opposition in regard to the cleansing and reorganizing of the government. The opposition de- manded that the parliament be cor- stitutionalized and that the fascist militia be inducted into the regular army units. In neither of these two requests has. Mussolini been acquiescent. He has not been prosecuting the case against the accused fascisti officials who are being held for the murder of Matteotti and has shown considerable disposition to release the criminals if it is possible to save himself while doing it. The Communists have withdrawn from the official “opposition” group because of the compromising’ posi- tion the mixed social democratic group has taken. The Communists’ plea for a general strike at the time the Matteotti affair was threatening to sweep out Mussolini was over- ridden by the socialists who would “strike” for ten minutes only, spoil- ing the political effect of the move.
