Palmiro Togliattí. Since the Communist 's triumph on May 25th =
that in order to keep and hold the new masses they have gain
the Communists would begin e series of noisy actions, create em=

Communists are behaving quite meekly. They do not show. The

is not to give the governement any possibility to use the big
stick, But if one observes more carefully this quietness, one
finds that 4% is not inactivity. In fact the Communists are more
active than ever before. But what they do is the technique of

is the so-called "Independent left Movement" , which started ite
political activity in May, when it organized the crypth commas

though the coalition is on a brittle base. The Monarchicts haye

at present by their coalition, but there are bigter opposition
