An opponent of intervention in the war, he combined journalism with cooperative organization and became editor-in-chief of the Piedmont Avanti! in December 1918.

Other Notes: Used the later pen names da Luni and Carlo Rossi. Exiled at the end of 1926; later worked in the Soviet Union and returned to Italian journalism. Council-delegate status remains unknown; his proposal is not evidence of a factory mandate. Issue I.28 names him in the proposed propaganda-school program for the Commune, jointly with O. Casalini. This announcement does not by itself establish that the lessons took place.
