Revised Peace Terms For Italy Proposed
• WASHINGTON. Aug. 22. The Secretary of State (Mr J. F. Bvrni-s) announced at a press conference that he had proposed that the London meeting of the Counci] of Foreign Ministers be deferred from September 1 to September 10 because of problems which had arisen from the end of the Japanese war. Two of the five other nations forming the council had agreed so far. Mr Byrnes said he considered that the Italian armistice terms should be revised, although this was a matter for the Foreign Ministers’ Council. He added that it would not be helpful to Italy to have the terms published as originally written.
Mr Byrnes, when asked if the council would meet at a place cut of! from the nress as at Potsdam, said the Foreign Ministers would decide the policy. He pointed out that the Potsdam talks were held within the Russian lines of occupation. Conditions in London, he was sure, would be different. .
