Rome, Apr. 26.
The establishment of conscription in Great Britain has made a very deep impression in Rome, where it was generally believed that the British Government would hesitate to adopt such a measure Political circles consider that the measure constitutes a concession to France.
They point out that the constitution of a military service lasting but a few months wil not permit the creation of a strong modern British army, but admit that the measure is of utmost political significance. It will increase Britain's war potential and will consequently influence developments in the European situation.—Havas.
