After almost daily outrages in the past two weeks, Haifa has now enjoyed nearly three days of tranquil lity. This fact supports the recent authoritative statement that the attacks have been the last fling of the terrorists, who are now slowly being rounded up.
Terrorist activities, in Haifa, in the past fortnight, have resulted in three Arabs and four Jews killed.
Notices have been posted on the mosques, urging the Arabs to discontinue the boycott of roads, in view of the forthcoming London Conference. As a'result, the Arabs are now applying for permits, which the authorities have recently decreed must be obtained before vehicles can be used on the roads—Reuter, Rome, Dec. 18.
Count Galeazzo Ciano, the Foreign Minister, left for Budapest last night.
The main object of his visit, according to the Italian press, was to receive an expression of Hungary's thanks to Italy for the realisation of her territorial aims.
Stress was also laid on the new cultural agreement between Italy and Hungary, which was signed in Budapest yesterday. It was presumed that Count Ciano would have conversations with members of the Hungarian Government on all questions affecting relations between Italy and Hungary arising out of the partition of Czechoslovakia.—Reuter.
