This is icle in @ series of th 1al ¢ ik RS mosi” Gramatie 1with urope. BY HIRAM K. MODERWELL. Correspondence of The Star and the Chicago Daily Nes ROME, June 6.~It is pretty gen- erally agreed that the dictatorial sys- tem which Mussolini has established in Italy works, as administered by the genius and personal prestige of the duce himself, But it is not un- naturally asked: “What will happen ‘Wwhen Mussolint dies?” Let it be stated immediately, since our Itallan friends are often sensi- tive on this point, that this article does not imply that there is any dan- ger of his dying before the appointed age of threescore and ten. Musso- lini's intestinal - ulcer appears to be completely cured. His vitality and endurance are more astonishing than ever. And although two attempts at assassination were made last year, elaborate precautions are maintained by the secret service and there is no reason to fear that future attempts will succeed. The question to be answered is: “Does the Mussolini system contain the stuff of permanence or is it onl a personal and exceptional creation Thousands Have Suffered. 1t is often argued that his ruthless and often bloody methods (10,000 Ital- ians are said to have been killed by the Fascisti in their civil war and tens of thousands have been virtu- ally exiled) have engendered such deep and widespread hatred that if he should disappear the masses would "fl.‘l‘e up” and overthrow the Fascist rey But luppolh\x they “rose up,” they could do little more. For the Fascisti have all the guns. There are 250,000 excitable young men eager to shoot on the word of command, with the regular army of a quarter of a mi lon in reserve. A popular antl- Fascist uprising would simply be & massacre. . No such popular move- ment is going to overthrow Fascism, ::z matter how dead Mussolini might No uprising could succeed unless it ‘were armed, There are, then, only two possibilities: A revolt by the army or a split in the Fascist forces themselves. Mussolini, according to well inform- ed persons, has by no means i the eventuality of his death. His aim, ever since the Matteott! affair was liquidated, has been so to consolida: the Fascist party that it would con- tinue a compact and efficient instru- ment even after his death. He has managed to weed out most of the dis- reputable elements which had inevi- tably tached themselves to the movement and to suppress most of the annoying local dissidents. Had Planned for Successors. At one time, when his physical con- dition was causing some concern, it was credibly reported that he had named a triumvirate to succeed him, consisting of Federzoni, the powerful minister of interior; Rocco, the widely respected minister of justice, and Gen. Badoglio, chief of the general staff, a brilliant military technician, who has kept free from party politics. Such a triumvirate would have combined varlous necessary elements of strength while eliminating the unsta- bel radical elements of the movement. It was predicted formerly that when Lenin died bolshevism would collapse. Yet Lenin's death caused not a ripple in Russian political life. The system was so strong, the domi- nating party so well disciplined, that revolt was unthinkable. The Italian temperament, of course, is more adventurous; Italian events are less easily predictable. Yet, on the whole, the Fascist party and regime are fast becoming consolidat- ed, as happened in Russia long before Lenin’s death. For a time there was one shadow to threaten the stability of the Facist re- gime in Roberto Farinacci, the former secretary-general of the party, who was relleved of his office last spring. His great popularity among the more reckless young Facists-of the North seemed to justify the fear that in a time of crisis he might make a violent But his recent dis. grace and elimination from Facist politics through his connection with the bankrupt Agricultural Bank of removes even this remote peril from the Facist machine. No other formidable enemy now looms from ‘within or without. The army (that is to say, the officer class), after a Jong period of dif- -dence, appears to have been won over his {to the Fascist regime. The officers have received numerous advantages, moral and material, from Mussolini. There can be no question of a spon- taneous revolt in the event of Musso- lini’s death. The army would hardly enter into the political situation un- less a struggle within the party m Fascism helpless or a disastrous left it discredited. On the purely civil and admmistra- tive side there is no reason why the system . should collapse. Fascism has had time to train compe- tent administrators both in nationa] and local politics. The web of personal interests is strong and could not eas- ily be destroyed. Many of Mussolini's chiet collaborators, who would con- tinue his work in the event of his , are men of outstanding GCe- system - the cent '.nt,hl.lfllmwnfiof Y.
