Satisfaction In Washington
(Received 10 a.m.) NEW YORK. April 17
The Anglo-Italian Pact has been received with satisfaction, says the Washington correspondent of the “New York Times.” It is considered to mark the successful conclusion of the first move in Mr Chamberlain's realistic foreign policy, which United States officials have been following sympathetically, in the belief that it means that the danger of a European war has been greatly diminished, at least from the standpoint of the time element.
The chief interest in Washington centres in the possible effect of the pact on the Rome-Berlin Axis. At present it is assumed that
Britain is certain to recognise the Italian conquest of Abyssinia,
Avhich will directly place the ques-
tion before America
It is indicated that the Secretary of State, Mr Cordell Hull, will avoid hasty action in this connection.
