TEAR-GAS USED IN GENOA RIOTS.—Two steel-helmeted policemen take cover behind their vehicle as a tear-gas grenade explodes among surrounding rioters in Genoa. The demonstrators, described as Communists and anti-neo-Fascists, numbering about 300, fought a pitched battle with the police, using rocks and boards. Forty were taken to hospital. Street battles broke out in both Turin and Genoa as demonstrators protested at the plans of the small neo-Fascist Italian Social Movement to hold a national convention in Genoa.
