DETERMINED TO KILL MUSSOLINI. SERPENT THAT MUST BE CRUSHED. (Received Tuesday, 8.5 p.m.) ROME, Nov. 1_ The voluntary Italian exiles, who have headquarters in Paris, declare that they are determined to kill Mussolini, since Fascism, like a serpent, cannot bo exterminated without crushing its head. Several of these men, equipped with money, arms, and bombs, have entered Italy, intending to make a series of attempts on the Dictator’s life. During a demonstration in Ventimiglia, Sicily, in connection with Sunday’s attack on Mussolini, a Frenchman failed to remove his hat while the Fascist hymn was being played. Tho crowd thereupon made a demonstration before tho French consulate, and attacked several Frenchmen.
