Britain and Italy
The Debt Question SENTIMENT AND BUSINESS. NEWSPAPER’S OUTSPOKEN PLEA (By Cable— Press Association—Copyright.) (Received 29, 11.30 a.m.) Rome, Dec. 28. The Milan newspaper “Popolo d”ltalia.” in an outspoken editorial on Anglo-Italian debts, which is supposed to reflect Signor Mussolini’s opinions, says that when two nations suffered together for common victory a brutal calculation from the business viewpoint regarding the debt of one nation must be corrected by the high political, diplomatic and historic vision of the negotiator. England would give an inestimable proof of her gratitude to Italy if she accorded conditions more favourable than those granted Italy by the United States. Moreover, Italy received no colonial mandates, whereas the English received a large proportion of thoj booty of victory. The problem of th" gold deposited in Engr land must be kept distinct from others. The gold was given as a pledge, and pledges must be restored. —(A. and N.Z.)
