ITALY’S IMPORT QUOTAS
ANSWER TO BRITISH PROTEST.
EFFECT OF OTTAWA PACT. (United Frets* Association— B7 Electric Telegraph Oopyrijtntv HOME, March 1. “Italy did not protest against England gaining an advantage by the Ottawa Agreement and tariffs violating the’ classical principles of international commercial relations and grievously harming all countries; also Italy did not protest at the devaluation of the pound, with greatly damaged Italian gold reserves and trade,” says an inspired article in the Giomale d’ltalia, which declares that the House of Commons manifestations on February 25 regarding the Italian import quotas were unjustified, inopportune and paradoxical. The paper points out that the Italian . policy was not directed particularly against Britain, but was adopted purely to protect Italy’s national interests. Moreover, the balance of traue favouring Britain showed that Italy was within her rights in redressing the accounts.
