Fascism Now Faces Enemy More Dangerous Than Negus

Rome, May 24.

Cessation of military activities in East Africa and dethronement of Haile Selassic signals the inauguration of another tedious Fascist march "on the path of revolution."

In this advance there will be no recourse to bayonets or hand grensdes, No banners will be lying. Shouts of soldiers locked in hand-to- hand struggles will be absent: For it will con- prise an attack NOT against communities pro- but against Fascism's hated enemies capitalism tected by anti-aerial guns and heavy artillery, and Communism.

The only claims invariably allow ed since the Coronation of King Charles II. are those of the Bishops of Durham and of Bath and Wells to support the Stiverelen during the ceremony.

The Dean and Chapter of West- niinster claim not only the right to instruct the King in the rites and ceremonies, but also fees, which include six yards of "sarennof" for the Dean's robes, all the oblations and offerings, the King's apper: vestments when he enters the Abbey, the Throne, Royal seats, cushions, carpet, and other orna- ments, and "än hundred manchets, the third part of a ton of wine, and fish according to the bounty of the King," for the Dean and Chapter's repast.
