A friend in need is just an acquaintance.

They must have read with a shiver of apprehension the words of De Stefani, late Chancellor of the Exchequer, and by no means a Fascist on the shelf, who made several incisive remarks about the new Charter. He said that the problem of the remuneration of capitalists and employers is only now foreshadowed in it. "The revolution, forging ahead, must develop finally the principle of the general duties of Labour, and discipling the duties and the limitations of employers, especial ly regarding the 'value and the use of their revenue." Ho echoes, the Government when he says that the consequences of the crisis in pro- duction and monetary, phenomena will have to be equally shared by Capital and Labour. Already employers are calling for a fall in wages in connexion with the rising lira rate. The worker finds that lower exchange has not, 10 far, lowered prices of goods.
