ITALY'S APPARENT DECISION.
EXPECTED REPLY TO SANCTIONS. ECONOMIC, NOT MILITARY. (United Press Association--Copyright). (Received This Dav, 10.45 a.m.) LONDON, February 6. The Rome correspondent of “The Times” says that a meeting of the Fascist Grand Council has given a rude shock to the theory that Signor Mussolini will postpone successes in the field and declare that Italian military honour is satisfied that that she will agree to negotiate. Apparently Italy has resolved to continue the war until she has achieved more substantial triumphs. There is still no means of knowing what are the Italians’ objectives. Signor Mussolini’s disposition to negotiate might sensibly be affected in the production of fresh factors in the political situation. Many well-informed quarters, however, do not consider that Italy will reply to sanctions with military measures. Economic countermeasures are more probable.—“ The Times” Cables.
