TRYING TO PLEASE ARABS.
MUSSOLINI'S VISIT TO TRIPOLI (By Telegraph-Press Assn.-Copynght) Received Wednesday, 8 p.m. TRIPOLI, March 16. After spending the night in a tent on the edge of the Sirtico desert, Mussolini piloted himself to Sirte, accompanied thither by General Balbo and 400 followers in aeroplanes. The journey was thence continued by motor car. Mussolini, arriving in the environs of Tripoli mounted on a white Arab charger, passed through the gateway to the salvoes of artillery and the cheers of the populace. "CASE MORE FOR PITY THAN BLAME." Received Wednesday, S p.m. LONDON, March 16. The Associated Press' political correspondent gathers that no attempt at present is contemplated to combat Mussolini 's anti-British propaganda. The British authorities lightly dispose, of Mussolni's outbursts as a case more for pity than blame. It is recalled that the Kaiser in 1911, in terms aimost identical with those used by II Duce, proclaimed himself as the protector of Islam and later entered Jerusalem on a milk-white charger.
