Paris, Jan. 12.
Lengthy comments were devoted in the press here this morning to the Anglo-Italian talks im Rome, most of the papers stressing the more moderate tone of the Italian press towards France.
"Lo Matin" and "Lo Journal" reported that according to well-informed quarters in Rome, Mr. Chamberlain asked Signor Mussolini to instruct the Italian press to cease the anti-French campaign started one month zgo, and specified that Bri-lain would not act as a mediator in Franco-Italian relations. However, he is said to have added that his country would view with pleasure the opening of direct negotiations between Paris and Rome, and that Great Britain might later offer her good services if both interested parties asked her to do so.
