Bocchini had more than half n milliard lire ($27,000,000) annually at his disposal. Mussolini gave him carte blanche in whatever he did.
Since 1933 he had been a senator. He was a career man for he had een in the police service since 1903. His work as prefect of Brea- cio, Bologna and Genoa caught the
