A practical politician who
finds escape in Western-type
movies is taking over the
premiership of Italy in an
attempt to lead the nation out
of its 29th government crisis
since World War 11.
He will need his practical
skills, luck and a unity seldom
shown by Italy’s fragmented
Christian Democrats if he is to
succeed.
The man is 55-year-old
Mariano Rumor onetime school
teacher, resistance fighter after
the Italian armistice of 1943,
and a protege of the late Alcide
de Gasperl, the great leader of
the Christian Democrats and
premier of postwar Italy.
Once more it will be a center
left coalition, with the Christian
Democrats and Socialists play
ing the principal roles in that
order, joined by the small
Republican party.
As in the past, it will be a
makeshift affair of sticks and
stones held together by straw.
Time is the important factor.
Italy is an economic and
political paradox. Its gold ano
foreign currency reserves of
I nearly $6 billion place it behind
only the United States and West
Germany.
Yet as it piled up gold and
industrial production moved
steadily upward, so did unem
ployment.
Wages rose but not enough to
satisfy the aspirations of the
workers who contributed to the
economic miracle. In the
especially depressed south, a
man performing the same job
|as the man in the north
I received half as much pay.
In the years since Italian
I unification, institutions of higher
I learning have multiplied by half
j again, but students demanding
! entry have multiplied 10 times.
Among the chief political
i parties, only the Communists
i retain a semblance of unity and
|in recent elections they have
I shown the greatest gains.
Labor unions are split among
I the various political parties, and
| thus become a political arm
rather than a unified force for
■ the benefit of labor as a whole.
The latest crisis grew out of
elections last May in which the
Socialists led by Pietro Nenni
lost one quarter of their votes
to the far left. Nenni blamed it
on Christian Democratic foot
dragging on reforms and pulled
out of the coalition.
In late November, the power
less caretaker government of
Giovanni Leone also quit to
force the Christian Democrats
1 into action.
