Rome Amintore Fanfani’s leftward-sliding Government is viewed with more alarm by responsible elements in Italy than any which has held office since the end of the war. And more and more Italians blame Americanpolicy for the ominously growing power of the fellow-traveling Nenni Socialists and the Communists. Though nominally a Christian Democratic government allied with the Nenni Socialists, the present regimeyields steadily to the demands of the Left. The electrical utilities have been, nationalized; the cement industry is supposed to be next, despite previous Christian Democratic promises that confiscation of private enterprise would stop short with electricity; and enthusiasts for state ownership now talk about nationalizing the processing and distribution of certain foods.
