The army and the navy and other state military organizations, such as the recently established militia, are exempted from the provisions of the decree. The Italian state railroads will be dealt with in a later decree devoted to that branch of the service. The appointment of Deputy Torre as commissioner general of railroads also is expected to take care of a great deal of the excess labor on the railroads' pay rolls. Those who, through their long service for the state, are entitled to draw pensions, will be accorded that privilege under the new decree. Those who have served less than twenty years will receive as many months' pay as years they have spent in the state service.
