Here is the news for today, Sunday, December 18th:

A parliamentary election has been held in Slovakia.
The election took the form of a referendum, with voters asked only one question "Do you want a new, free Slovakia?" Voters were presented with a United List of 63 candidates, with only government approved candidates appearing. The elections were “supervised” by the fascist Hlinka Guard, the governing party's militia, which sought to to find out how people voted. In many places, the government created separate polling stations for members of national minorities to trace their political preferences and "loyalty".

Results:

Of the 63 members of the United List elected, 47 were members of Hlinka's Slovak People's Party, four were former members of the now-defunct Republican Party of Farmers and Peasants, two were members of the new German Party and one was a representative of the Hungarian minority.

Benito Mussolini has officially inaugurated the new Sardinian coal town of Carbonia.
