MUSSOLINI’S BROADCAST IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE. WAR’S TERRIBLE CONSEQUENCES EVER REFORE HIM. ANOTHER OUTBREAK WOULD ENDANGER CIVILISATION. (U-P.'A. by Elec. Tel. Copyright) (Received -Jan. 2. 7.30 p.m.) LONDON. Jan. 1. The Times says that Mussolini’s first broadcast speech in English, in which he has recently been taking Lessons from an Englishwoman, was received in London and passed on to the United States by telephone. He said he was most anxious to contradict the rumours spread' abroad about Fascism’s alleged danger to world-peace. He had himself served in thp ranks, and was severely, wounded and war-time's terrible memories never left him. As head of the Government every aspect of war’s terrible consequence was ever before-liim. Italy needed peace. Fascism desired to cooperate with other peoples, seeking future prosperity and peace. Another outbreak between two Powers would inevitably become general, and endanger civilisation.
