| biography:
| Italian politician, born in Pinerolo, Piedmont, N Italy. A follower of Giolitti, he held a number of ministerial posts, becoming prime minister in February 1922 after the fall of the Bonomi cabinet. He hesitated to curb the Fascist threat, and his decision to declare the state of siege in October 1922 was too late to stop the March on Rome. He was made life senator by Mussolini in 1924. |
