ITALY CONFIDENT
“ PREDOMINANT IN MEDITERRANEAN" ROME NEWSPAPER VIEWPOINT Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright ROME, April 8. “ Britain has been living on Nelson’s glory for the past century,” declares the ‘ Tribuna ’ in claiming that Italy is now the predominant naval power in the Mediterranean. “ A new Fascist Power has arisen in the Mediterranean, and means to keep its predominance. It would be dangerous to try to fight this, especially for the English, because they must hold their own in all the other of the world’s seas. It would be safer and simpler for them to accept and recognise Italy’s preeminence. British hegemony in the Mediterranean is finished.”
