OPINION IN ROME
CRISIS IN SPRING
FRENCH ATTITUDE
(By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright.)
LONDON, January 22,
The Rome correspondent of the British United Press says that wellinformed circles are of the opinion that, immediately after the subjugation of Catalonia, Signor Mussolini, backed by Herr Hitler, will demand satisfaction from France, which, under British advice, will capitulate in preference to fighting. Signor Mussolini's spearheads will be the Pyrenees, Libya, the Francoj Italian frontier, Jibuti, and Sardinia. A crisis can be expected in March or | April, adds the correspondent. j The semi-official Rome newspaper "Relazioni Internazionali" declares that France's failure to fulfil Italy's | demands will plunge Europe into a terrible war.
