l The ‘peasants’ revolt" reached l tlie gates oi Rome today as the wildfire land occupation movement which started in Southern Italy spread northwards towards the cap- ital

Several thousad acres of uncul- tivated land, most of it the proper- ty of the great Italian land barons, have been taken over by the peas- ants. Their leaders, the leit-iving Confederaterra (agricultural trade union) said today that the brealg clown oi negotiations to split u land to those in need of it had “forced the peasants’ hands." Confedcratcrra. said time was short for ploughing and sowing and a season would ‘have bcen "wasted" had they waited for “bureaucratic Nd tape."

Police patrols are stationed at strategic points. Most oi the riot squads carried carbint-s and had been rushed up from Rome during the night. Their presence increased the tension hanging heavily over the countryside.

In contrast with the southern re- volt, where the peasants immediate- ly started working the land they ,liad seized. the occupation in the Rome province has been TO-pcr-ccirt sycmbolical, consisting in the planting of a Red flag 0X1 a plot of uncultivated ground. Under the flag the staker usually puts a ticket bearing his name.

Unrest on tho land. aggravated by 1.000.000 unemployed land workers, has been smouldering since the u'nr's end. Land occupation started several times in the south in 1946, but has never before Swelled W such proportions.

Members from Atlantic anti Pac- lilc coast provinces gave u alarm reception to the new plan which Mr. Mayhew summed up in these words:

"The new services in inspection. and in the technical application of

scientific knowledge to fish pro- ductlon and selling. in consumer services, and in the greater ex-

ploration of the seas and its valu- able species will all aid market ex- pansion.”

Future Bright

Mr. Mayhew tempered the pre- dictions with a warning when he said:

"The future is bright, The re- source is there, and if not fully used by Canadians. will be further controlled by other countries."

He announced steps to help the east-coast fishing industry modern- ize fishing operations at lower costs by issuing trawler licences more freely.

At present licences for trawlers are issued only to Canadian-built ships. It now has been decided to grant licences to new trawlers built in the United Kingdom as well.

Licences would be issued also to the better types of second-hand trawlers bought either in the Un- ited States or U.K. and registered in Canada after payment of duty.

These latter licences would be granted only when the company has laid down a new keel in Can- ada.

Chifley has campaigned ccasc- lcsslly against what he has called the "evil" of high interest rates charged by private banking in. terests. Yet, declared Lang, Chif- ley himself charged Hip to eight per cent on loans he made to New South Wales ivorkers in the de- pression of the 1930's. yNeurspapers said they had veri- fied Lang's charges. They front- paged the news, ChlQIﬂY {PCBMSQ of Chiflcy‘s frequent attacks on in- tercst rates. Chiiley was shown Lang's broadcast by reporters but would not comment.

The anti-government Sydney Morning Herald said editorially that "what must seem incongruous to most people is the gullf that yawned between Chifleys precepts and practice."

No one expected Chifley to take the attack lying down. His fetid, with Lang goes back to i940 ulhcn the latter, n radical who challenged Chiflcy for Labor load-

St. John's Westl and Dr. Donaldl Smith (L — Queens-Shelburne) -l expressed concern about the in-‘ crease in trawler licences. fearing that ttawlers would increase waste and might move in on the small cirse-to-coast. fishermen.

Mr. Mayhew countered that Can- aria must have more up-to-date trawlers to maintain the advant- age of the U. S. of being closer to flShllV; grounds; also to get Can- Mia's fair share of catches from such grounds as the Grand Banks.

He said the Government program includes establishment of three new branches of the Fisheries De- partment.

One would provide for an ef- fective inspection service "in boats and plants and through the whole- sale and retail trades."

A division of technical services would be set up to provide fish- ermen, small plants and the whole- sale nncl retail trade with techni- cal help on the improvement of

sat)’ equipment. i "W;- are steadily co-tlrriinating our resources to stand together- an idea which Illllllli have prevented the Second World War.‘ he told a press conference after he arrived here from Luxembourg.

While ln Luxembourg earlier to- day. Claxtcn held conferences with Pierre Dupong, Luxembourgs Prem- ier and Defence Minister. he also at- tended an official luncheon witn Prince Jan, heir to the Grand Duchy.

The Canadian Defence Chief told the press conference:

“Our main task at the moment in relation to the North Atlantic treaty is to see that countries ilk!‘ Holland, Belgium. Luxembourg. Franco, Sweden and switzeriandi have the necessary equipment."

He did no specify what type of equipment Canada would provide.

Claxton also said the R..C.A.F. would not be assigned to strategic, bombing in the event of any future ' war. He did not amplify this state ment.‘

The RC? however. would prob- ably play he same role—in North Atlantic escort work~as it did in the Second World War. Considerat- ion wculd have to be given to train- ing British and European air and artillery forces and technicians in Canada in the event of another con- flict.

“Canada's policy" he said. “would be to defend Canada as far away as possible."

Canada is not making any atom bombs. but has an atomic pile for research work, he said.

Referring to the plan to defend the North Atlantic area agreed ulpoin at Paris l-ast week, Claxton sat z
