NEW ROMAN EMPIRE IN AFRICA
LIBYA NOW NATIONAL TERRITORY LONDON, October 26. The decision of the Fascist Grand Council that Libya’s four provinces should now become part of the Italian national territory and should no longer rank as colonies is interpreted as implying that the Italian Empire is being extended across the Mediterranean to Africa, says the Rome correspondent of The Daily Telegraph. The effects of this move have the utmost political and international importance. The advantages that can be derived by the natives are considerable, providing there is evidence of Italy’s intention to continue her policy of respect for, and collaboration with, Islam. It is announced that 310 Arab rebels who fled from Tripoli after the Italian occupation have now submitted to Italian rule.
