His father worked in the meantime in Santo Stefano, but was forced, in 1932, due to poorer wages, to return to Annoeullin where he remained until November. He returned to Pieve in 1933 and although he remained under a ban that prevented him from teaching, he was able to contribute to the upkeep of his family thanks to a part-time position at "Collegio Balbi-Valier" and to various odd jobs. Taking account of his responsibilities to the family, he avoided any direct conflict with his political enemies.
