The "Montagues and Capulets -mighty familles of Verona, are deadly enemies who battle to the death at every encounter. Romeo, son of Lord Montague, is more intercated in love, than fighting.
·Capulet has a daughter, Jullet, but no son; he therefore appoints his nephew Tybalt as master of his soldiers. The Count of Paris asks Juliet's hand in marriage and her father celebrates with a feast. Through the stupidity of a servant, Romeo receives an in- vitation. Ile Icarns that Rosaline, the

1. Farcists seek to abolish parliamentary democracy and set un the dictatorship of their own party. They want a State-con- frolled capitalism, which they call the Corporate State.
2. Cominunista also oppose parliamentary democracy. Thou desire the dictatorship of the workers (led by themselves). They believe that the workers should own the land and the machines. They hold that this can only come about by armed insurrection.
3. Socialista want to obollah private enterprise, as do the Con- munisis. They hold that this can be done by peaceful democratic vote.
4. There are about 10,000,000 Jews scattered over the world, about 300,000 of them in Britain. They are denounced by the Fascists an, belng both capitalist exploiters and Communist egitators.
