INSULT TO ITALIAN NATION
COAT-OF-ARMS REMOVED FROM CONSULATE
(Rec. December 27, 11.45 p.m.)
Brisbane, December 27.
Resentment prevails among the Italians at Innisfall because of fhe removal, of the coat-of-arms from the front of the Italian Consulate during the holidays. The Vice-Consul for Italy, Signor Luciano, in a statement to-day, describes it as an insult to the Italian nation, arousing a feeling similar to that experienced by Britons if somebody tore down the Union Jack and threw it in the gutter. He adds that it is time such occurrences ended, and he looks to the proper authorities to trace the guilty person.
