ATTACK ON FRANCE
OUTBURST BV GRANDI TALK OF POISONOUS POLEMICS. APPLAUSE IN ROME. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. ROME ,May 26. The Press applauds an attack on France by Count Grandi, Italian Ambassador in Britain, when he spoke at a function in the London Embassy in
celebration of the signature of the Italo-German alliance, in the presence of the German Ambassador, Dr. von Dircksen, and Italian and German diplomats.
Count Grandi declared that midsummer madness had been loosed in an attempt to perpetuate old injustices, perpetuate new abuses, and reawaken a campaign of lies against Germany and Italy, affording evidence of the furious impotence of their adversaries.
France’s poisonous polemics, he said, exceeded all toleration. Italians knew who were their real enemies. The Duce and the Fuehrer had opened an era of peace to the world and a new cycle of dazzling victories to the totalitarian Powers.
