ItalianParty, ToMakeVital PoliticalChoice

ByJamesC.O'Neill.

ChristianDemocracyinItalyfacesprobably itsmostcrucialtestsinceitcametopower aftertheSecondWorldWar.

OnJanuary27theCatholic-orientedparty,whichis Italy's'dominantparty,holdsitsnationalcongressat Naples.Thecruxofthemeetingwillbvtheanswerto oneofthreequestions. ShallthepartymovetothepoliticalleftbyaligningitselfwiththeItalianSocialistparty?

Shalltheparty.alignitselfwithneo-fascsistand monarchistparties,thusveeringtotheextremeright:

Orshallthepartyrefusebothalliancesandtake itschancesinanewseriesofnationalelections?

Nomatterhowserioustheconsequences,onething isclear.Achoicehastobemade.

ThechoicehasbeenforcedontheChristianDemocrats.WhiletheyhavebeenItaly'slargestpartyfor thepast15years,theyhavenotheldanabsolute majorityinparliamentandthereforehavehadtorely onrightistorleftistsupporttostayinpower.

Thepresentgovernment,headedbyPremierAmintoreFanfanicametopowerbyformingaacoalition governmentwiththesupportoftheSocialDemocrats headedbyGuiseppeSaragat,togetherwiththeLiberals andRepublicans.

Fanfani'sChristianDemocratshold272seatsinthe ChamberofDeputiesoutof596,27shortofanabsolute majority.ButwiththehelpoftheSaragatSocial Democratsandtheothertwosmallerparties,theFanfanigovernmenthasbeenabletoremaininpowerfor the'past17,months.

LastAugust,however,thepicturechangedradically. Saragatdeclaredthatitwastimeforan"openingto theleft"andproposedanalliancewiththeSocialist partywhichforsometimehadbeenacloseallyofthe ItalianCommunistparty.

BreakOverHungarianUprising

Theextremeleftsocialists,headedbyPietroNenni, untilafewyearsagoformedasocialist-communist front,workingtogetherintradeunions,municipaladministrationsandsharingthesameviewonpolicy mattersinforeignaffairs.

In1956thetwopartiesbrokeoverthehandlingof theill-fatedHungarianuprising.SincethenSaragat hasconsideredtheextremesocialistssufficiently matureanddetachedtoshareintheactualgoverningof Italy.Thisviewhasbeenalsosharedbythemoderate leftistRepublicansandtheleft-wingoftheChristian Democraticparty.

ManyChristianDemocrats,however,donotshare thisopinion.MinisterofJusticeGuidoGonellahassaid thatiftheopeningtoleftweretobepermitted,it wouldresultinaschismwithintheChristianDemocraticparty.EvenmoreopposedisInteriorMinister MarioScelba.

Amajorquestionis:Whatistheattitudeofthe Churchtotheopeningtotheleft?

InthefinalstatementofthemeetingsheldinNovember,1961,theItalianEpiscopalConferenceexhorted Catholicstoremainunitedandtorecallthedirectives ofthehierarchyagainstanykindofcollaborationwith Marxists.

Inspiteofthis,FanfaniandotherChristianDemocratsinsistontheopeningtotheleft,butonlyinfavour ofaChristianDemocraticgovernmentwhichwouldget theexternalsupportofthesocialistsbecauseofits progressivesocialprogramme.Itisarguedthatan alliancebetweentheChristianDemocratsandsocialists wouldwidenthebreakbetweenthesocialistsandcommunists.

Anotherquestionis:Whatisthepricesocialistsask forallyingthemselveswithChristianDemocrats?

AttheirrecentnationalcounciltheNennisocialists specifiedthatitwouldbenecessarycompletelyto laicisetheschools,nationalisethecountry'sresources anddropthepro-Westernforeignpolicy.Itwould seem,however,thattheseconditions,whichareunacceptabletotheChristianDemocrats,wereadvanced onlyfortacticalreasons.

AsecondalternativeWouldbeforChristianDemocratstoalignthemselveswiththeneo-fascistsand monarchists.However,thisalliancehasprovedunworkableinthepastandledtothecollapseofthe governmentofFernandoTambroniinApril,1960.

AthirdalternativeisthattheChristianDemocratic congresswillrejectbothalliances.Thispossibilityis complicatedbythefactthatthepresidentialelections aretocomeupinApril.

Iftherejectionisvotedon,thenPresidentGiovanni GronchiwillhavetoasktheFanfanigovernmentto carryon-theaffairsofstateinthequalityofacaretakergovernmentuntilthepresidentialelectionsare held.AccordingtoItalianlaw,thelastsixmonthsof thepresident'stermofofficeiscalledthe"white" periodandnodecreedissolvingagovernmentcanbe issuedduringthattime.

IntheeventthattheFanfanicabinetbecomesacaretakergovernment,thenewpresidentwilldissolveboth theparliamentandsenateimmediatelyafterhiselectionandinstitutenewgeneralelections.

"Howeverhonestlyits leadersmaywishtokeep oldreligiousquarrelsoutof modernpolitics,theU.P.C. has,infact,becomethe anti-RomanCatholicparty.

"Religionhascomeinby thebackdoor,notasapositiveencouragementtogood action,butinthatparticularlynasty,viciousand negativeformofwantingto keeptheRomanCatholics outofpower."

TheGertrudevonLeFort novelwasentitled"The LastontheScaffold"and dealtwiththemartyrdomof agroupofCarmelitenuns duringtheFrenchRevolution.
