Italy has an Unemployed Insurance Act, but' it is a very modest one. The benefits .are small and given under conditions much less liberal than in Britain. Thus at the end. of September the number of Italian unemployed was officially estimated at 748,000, inclusive of 163,000 .agricultural labourers. The number enjoying benefits, however, was only 234,000. Instead of paying unemployment benefit a national endeavour is being made to give good employment. As many as 2038 great public works were inaugurated in October, including important land reclamation and xural hygiane works.
