GUARANTEE PACT.
MUSS'OLINI’S PROPOSAL. ROME, May 21. An important announcement regarding the proposed guarantee pact was made by Signor Mussolini in a foreign affairs debate in the Senate. He said there would be no question of a triple pact only, but there must be at least a five-power pact, which, with other possible pacts, should be under tie aegis of the League of Nutions Council. Signor Mussolini expressed the opinion that not only the frontier of the Rhine, but also that of the Brennero, should be guaranteed. He strongly opposed an Austro-German union because that meant that Germany would control the most powerful bloc in Central Europe. He added that Italy was not disturbed by President Hindenburg.’s election, which might lead to that conciliation which only firmly established Governments could effect. —A. and N.Z. cable.
