FEELING IN ITALY
BITTERLY OPPOSED TO BRITAIN. EMBASSY GUARD STRENGTHENED. (United Press Assn.—Telegraph Copyright.) Rome, June 8. Signor Mussolini has ordered the trebling of the Caribiniers’ guard at the British Embassy and also additional plain clothes detectives to prevent disturbances engendered by the violent anti-British campaign in the Press over Abyssinia. Simultaneously Signor Mussolini, reviewing the Sabaudi Division at Cagliari before its departure for Italian East Africa, declared: “We will imitate to the letter those who wish to give us a lesson. The British have shown us that when a question of creating an Empire or defending it arises they do not take notice of world opinion. You Black Shirts are entirely worthy of the heroic, warlike race of Sardinia, Italy has old and new accounts to settle. We will settle them and pay no attention to anything said across the frontier. Only Italy can judge Italy’s interests.”
