AMITY URGED.
Better Understanding Between
Britain and Italy.
DISABLED SOLDIER'S PLEA. (Received 9.30 a.m.) LONDON, November 24. Placing a wreath on the Unknown Warrior's tomb in the Abbey, the leader of the Italian ex-servicemen's delegation, Signor Delcroix, who is sightless and armless, as a result of the Great War, pleaded for a better understanding between Italy and Britain. The First Lord of the Admiralty, Mr. Alfred Duff-Cooper, speaking at a dinner to the delegation, said there could never be a serious misunderstanding between Britain and Italy, who had been friends and Allies in the past and would be again in the future.
The King received the Italian visitors and chatted with each.
