Herr Hitler, at the banquet in his honour in the Palazzo Vienzia, at- ! tended by 200 persons, said: “Italy and Germany have to defend themselves again' 1 a world filled with opposition and lack of understanding, and gradually a cordial friendship has developed between the two peoples the solidarity of which has been tested by events in recent years.
