SOCIALISTS' OATHS.
Received December 7,11.5 p.m ROME, December 3
When the Chamber resumed sittings after the strike proclamation, the Socialists protested against the beatings they received during street demonstrations. • The city walls are placarded with manifestos eulogising Bolshevism, and imploring the workers to act without delay in supporting their Russian brethren. The President invited the Socialists to -take the oath. They conformed individually, with the reservation, for instance, "I swear, but falsely."
Nitti, replying to the Socialists' complaints, deplored the beatings they received in the streets. He urged them to > moderate their language if they did not wish to provoke disorders.
