ITALIAN NOTE TO BRITAIN
COUGHED IN DISCOURTEOUS TERMS DIPLOMATIC CIRCLES AMAZED Press Association —By Telegraph—Copyright ROME, November 12. Diplomatic circles in Romo are amazed at the discourteous way in which the Italian Government communication asking Britain to open talks with Italy refers to Mr Chamberlain. Throughout it calls him “ the Chamberlain,” which every Italian will regard as definitely insulting. COUNT CIANO'S EXPLANATION NOT AN OFFICIAL DOCUMENT. LONDON, November 12. The ‘ Daily Telegraph’s ’ Rome correspondent says the Earl of Perth called at the Foreign Office at Count Ciano’s request. It is understood that Count Ciano stated that the communication meant to convey Italy’s wish to live on friendly terms with Britain and clear up misunderstandings as quickly as possible. The somewhat unorthodox terms in which the Note was couched were explained by the fact that it was not an official document.
