IF SANCTIONS COME
Warships in Greek Islands ITALIAN STRATEGY LONDON, Sept. 13. “The Times” Athens correspondent says that Italy has notified the Government that a torpedo boat has been ob liged to anchor off Asida on account of bad -weather. The Government has protested against this new infringement of international courtesy. The “Scotsman,” commenting on the Italian warship’s visits to Greece, expresses the opinion that Italy, in view of the League’s considering sanctions, desires to intimidate Greece, and possibly the Balkan Powers also, and to seize Greek merchantmen for use if a blockade is established, and to secure Greek islands for bases for naval raids, thereby raising a counter-block-ade.
