ITALIANS DEPRIVED OF 40-HOUR WEEK
FASCISM’S DEMANDS ON INDUSTRY ROME, April 19. All ship yards still in private hands will pass under State control, according to a new decree. Forty per cent, of Italian workers will cease to enjoy the 40-hour week introduced in 1935. Signor Mussolini has suspended the shorter period “in all industries in which economic recovery has led to a large increase in orders,” and is permitting 48 hours or longer. Rearmament workers are allowed to work 60 hours.
