ROME'S REACTION
BRITAIN INDICTED SUSPICION OF MOTIVES MEDITERRANEAN ACTIVITIES By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright (Repeived September 23, 7.55 p.m.) LONDON, Sept. 23 The Rome correspondent of the Morning Post says that Sir Samuel Hoare's statement that Britain has no new Mediterranean policy is disbelieved in the Italian capital. Authoritative circles in Rome point out that until the autumn of 1934 Britain's Mediterranean policy ran parallel to that of Italy. It was based on friendship, whereas now, they say, it is based- on non-friend-ship arising out of the Abyssinian war. It is also asked how Britain can expect Italy's co-operation in one part of Europe while it is preparing a Mediterranean encirclement which can only be directed against Italy.
