FASCISTI'S WAY WITH THIEVES.

MASS MEETING OF EVIL-DOERS, (FROM "THE TIMES" CORESPONDENT.)

MILAN, December 5th. Thefts, burglaries, and other criminal exploits have bon very frequent of late in Alessandria, Pioduwnt; and the local Fascisti, distrusting the efficiency of the police, drcided to take the matter into their own hands. Their chief, or consul, having obtained from the police the names of the oriminals, together with their past records of crimes, terms of imprisonment, &c., addressed a circular letter to the thieves inviting them to a meeting to be held on Sunday night at 9 o'clock, and threatening very severe punishments to those who should not attend. They all appeared at the time

fixed.

meaning "unless," as an old burglar rengkong, 5th February, 1923. marked, they want us to form a union of night workers." The Consul, eur- rounded by a dozen "black shirts." all armed to the teeth, took the chair and delivered a short, businesslike speech.

"We have called you here, he said, to warn you that henceforth there must be no more thefts in Alessandria... The Fascisti will not tolerate them any longer.i You know us well, When we want a thing we do not mind by what means we get it. Anyorie caught by us in a cri minat operation will be beaten to death. So make your choice. Either you change your lives, in which case we will find you situations, or you persist in your bad habite; and then prepara yourselves to go to the Bospital or the cemetery."

The audience was very much impress- ed. One by one the criminals declared themselves willing to undertake any honest work offered them. A dozen were immediately engaged as gamekeepers, others were premised other situations. In the meantimo tickets for shelter and meals were distributed. At the end an old man who had been in prison fifteen times proposed a vote of thanks to the chairman. --

Yesterday afternoon they carried out their first operation. They caught two pickpockets, notin Alessandria, and beat them so badly that they were taken to the hospital in a dying. condition.
