Rome, Dec. 1.
it is evident íhat Italy intends to link her colonial claims to the problem of the Reich's colonial demands, informed quarters here stated tonight.
Drawing their conclusions from the speech made in the Chamber of Deputies yesterday by Count Ciano, newspapers insist upon the necessity of making good the. "injustices" suffered by Germany and Italy in the past.in order to realize collaboration between the great European Powers "Lavoro Fascista" urges the demo-crocies to favour a settlement of the German colonial problem and declares that an accord, even if it demands sacrifices, is surely worth more than an armaments race in preparation for war.
Speaking of Italian claims, this newspaper clearly indicates the "injustices" that\ it believes should be wiped out.
The manner of the French occupation of Tunisia in 1881 and the fact that Italian interests existed in that land long before, were insults that the Italians have never forgotten. To be friends with Italy it is necessary to make good these injustices-today."
