APRIL WILL BE A FATEFUL MONTH FOR ITALY AND THE WORLD: Italians, gathering in their centres this Eastertide, are debating the fateful issues of their elections, to take place on April 18, whether to turn West or East, whether to remain a democracy or merge with the Communist Empire, dominated by the Soviet and the Cominform. Pictured here is Milan Cathedral, one of the largest churches in the world. Inset is the ex-King of Italy, Umberto, who was deposed in May, 1946. There was a vigorous demonstration against the monarchy outside Milan Cathedral when the then King Umberto made an appearance there.
