ITALY
SHARE OF REPARATIONS. FASCISTI SENATORS DISSATISFIED. (By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright) (Australian and N.Z. Cabh Association). ROME, June 13. There was an acrid debate in the Senate oxer the personal responsibility for the small quota of 10 per cent, of German reparations which was assigned to Italy. Count Sforza was accused of having weakly accepted such terms. Count Sforza declared that the suggestion came from exPresident Wilson, who originally proposed only 6 per cent. The Fascist! Senators were dissatisfied with the explanation, and bitterly blamed Count Sforza for being too conciliatory and the Allied statesmen for being too parsimonious towards Italy. They stated that, while Italy might have been content with 10 per cent, of the original £133,000,000 reparations bill, she would never consent to that percentage of thirty milliards, if Germany ever pays that amount.
