ITALY’S DEBT
LIABILITY TO ENGLAND.
Outspoken editorial,
(By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) Received December 29, 9.35 a.m. ROME, Dec. 28. The Milan newspaper Popolo d’ltalia, in an outspoken editorial on the Anglo-Italian debts, which is supposed to reflect Signor Mussolini’s opinions, says: “When two nations suffered together for a common victory, a. brutal calculation from a 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 inestimable jn-oof 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 the booty of victory. The problem of the gold deposited in England must be kept distinct from the others. The gold was given as a pledge and pledges must be restored.”—A. and N.Z. cable.
