1. SIGNS OF POUJADISM IN ITALY
The recent Convention of Small
Industries held in Rome was the
setting for a full-scale airing of
the accumulating grievances of
Italian businessmen against the "anti-private enter-
prise orientation" of the Segni government, according
to the American embassy in Rome. Two cabinet mem-
bers were hooted down during their speeches. The
chief points of attack were the government's fiscal and
credit policy, social security payments, new overtime
laws, and inadequate customs rebates.
Comment Discontent among Italian small business-
men may cause them to be sympathetic
to protest movements along the lines of the Poujade move-
ment in France. Poujadist groups have been founded in
Rome, Naples, Milan and Bologna, and Poujade reportedly
intends to visit Italy in the spring. Local elections are
scheduled to be held in early summer.
Otto Strasser, former Nazi leader re-
cently returned from exile to Germany, apparently hopes
to establish a similar movement among German extremists
and reportedly plans to meet Poujade soon.
