Italians Plan General Strike to Aid Slavs
The transigeant socialists publish a July 20 general strike across nations to protest the peace treaty seen as bourgeois suppression of Bolshevism in Russia and Hungary. Workmen in France, England, and other nations are urged to join, with the Italian union supporting the move. The moderates warn that English workers do not join and note Italy's government bears responsibility for intervention in Russia.

The reform is central to party politics as Poland’s 60 percent agricultural population elevates its importance. The measure reflects a compromise, with radical features trimmed in committee.
