Rome, Dec. 12. At a recent cabinet council It was decided to Improve the rights of Italian authors. Henceforth an author's rights, beginning with the first appearance in book form, or on the stage, will last during his whole life, and revolve to his next of kin for 60 years after his death. This makes Italian law almost equal to similar laws of other European states.

The state also will have the right to help financially the works, literary or dramatic, of authors who are considered worthy of such help, but who cannot obtain publisher or charter owing to tho peculiar artistic characteristics of their work. Scientific and technical books will be especially taken Into consideration for subsidies. The rights of authors are also safeguarded through a much clearer statement of Mho law. as touching- the relations between them and publishers. I'hotOBrapbers and painters hope the rights of reproduction of their Work will also bo considered before Ion, giving, for Instance, to painters a fixed royalty on all phoinKiapha of their pictures, as In the Mrltlsh Isles.
